And Now Back To Our Regularly Scheduled Masturbation: 5 Ideas For The Erotica Writer’s Writing Routine
I can’t tell you when/where and how to write any more than you could tell me. How you come to set your writing time/place/habits, has to work best for...
Self-Publishing & Erotica: The Cold Hard Facts-Part 2
Sorry to leave you hanging in the last column, spurting through a ruined handjob, left with aching clit or blue-balls. But there is lots to say about this subject, and I needed to get through part one, regale you of the prickly potential of...
