#WhyIWrite

There’s a Twitter hashtag today called #WhyIWrite…I thought I’d talk about why I write my erotic books.

I erotic romance, but I couldn’t find enough of the kind of erotic romance *I* wanted to read. I wanted strong female characters who weren’t afraid to ask for what they wanted in bed. I wanted female characters with more mainstream jobs and interests…women I could relate to.

I wanted MOAR SEX! Some of the books I was reading didn’t have enough…sex? LOL! I wanted more explicit scenes, and I wanted men who waited and asked for consent and checked in with their partners. I was finding a lot of alpha-holes who were pushy to the point of discomfort/ickiness for me.
