A blog where I write about books, movies, things erotic, and things mundane. There is so much more to writing erotica than the physical interaction. Join me in my exploration of writing erotica and enjoying life.
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night–Vampire Movie Countdown to Halloween part 4
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night is probably the most artsy vampire film I have ever seen. It's in black and white, so that's part of it. The film plays with light and dark, angles, focus..everything. It's a slow movie. There's one scene that we both were squirming...

If Mom’s Happy: Stories of Erotic Mothers
My story in If Mom's Happy is mostly fantasy, but this little snippet is straight out of real-life experience. Not waking the kids is definitely 'a thing' for most parents at some point. It's not that we were trying to hide the fact we have sex, we wanted them to...
