CAN MEN WRITE GOOD SEX SCENES?

Posted by under ,
f

After reading script's all weekend, I have to ask the question why don’t men write good sex scenes?  This is a massive generalization, and I would like to say sorry to all the male authors out there who do write really good sex scenes. As I said I have been reading scripts all weekend, three written by men and all three stories had the most appallingly written sex scenes. Women also write pretty bad sex scenes, but on the whole, men seem to be more consistently guilty of cringe-worthy prose. I once chatted with the editor of the Erotic Review,...

THE TOP TEN SEXIEST JOB.

Posted by under ,

Just what are the top ten sexiest jobs?  I read an article the other day that just grabbed my interest.  Working in the publishing business the jobs of the male characters do feature strongly in the plot. The career certainly defines the character in the story. Certain careers can make men seem more attractive. Here are some of the sexiest jobs in my opinion and not in any particular order. Doctor This one comes up again and again in stories.  It is no coincidence that the popularity of shows like ER and Grey’s Anatomy do so well.  For me, I like the idea of...

HOT! OR TACKY AND SEXIEST?

Posted by under ,

I was watching a Gerard Butler movie the other day The Ugly Truth; it is very funny, I highly recommend it. The premise, in a nutshell, it is a comedy that looks at how men and women look at sex and relationships. And it deals with the subject of social manipulation, with the object of getting each other into bed.  There is a scene at a basketball game where it is suggested to the heroine that eating a hot dog in a suggestive way would be a turn on for the man.  Having watched that movie, I began to notice...

A BIG WEEK FOR NEW BOOKS!

Posted by under , , , , , ,

It has been a tricky week, so many new books out, and I do not want to tread on anyone’s toes. I have been talking about Suzanne Smiths Blog tour.  Today I want to talk about Home by Keren Hughes.  The release date is 30th September and is available to pre-order now!  I love Keren’s stories.  I thought Safe was a great read, and her new book Home is a great follow up story, in the Jagged Scars Duet series.  I love the way Karen weaves in a tapestry of music and other contemporary details into her stories. It makes for a much deeper and...

WHY ARE COWBOYS SUCH A HOT ROMANCE GENRE?

Posted by under ,

Black Velvet Seductions have published a great many western romance novels, and I was wondering just why are they so popular.  I love them, and the appeal for me is that rugged frontier feel. A time when men were the strong and brooding types, an altogether rougher period in history, seeing men, as both the villains and the protectors. Especially in this pressured world of technology and deadlines, I think there is a part of us that craves a simpler life. I was watching the HBO series Westworld, and I think that feeds into that desire to go back to...

WHAT WOULD YOU PIC FOR A VACATION READ?

Posted by under ,

I am having a chilled Sunday.  In a vacation mood and was thinking what books I’d recommend for a holiday read. If I was on the beach, I might go for a soft romance something historical, like A Bride for a King by L.J. Dare. Click here to read Chapter one. I wouldn’t want to get too hot and bothered on the beach. If I was with a partner in a nice hotel room, I might go for something a bit more steamy a hot military read like Naval Maneuvers by Dee S. Knight. Click here to read Chapter one What would you pick for a holiday read and...
