Pinup girl Madeleine 'Sahji' Jackson

Other than the fact that she appeared in the 1947 movie Jivin' in Bebop with Dizzy Gillespie, not much else is known about the beautiful exotic dancer known as Sahji.  That film, no more than a string of musical performances, presents Sahji in all of her "exotic" otherness doing a dance that reminds me very [...]

Are there any vintage black pinups?

Well of course there are, just not a plenty… When I was asked to post some posts here, I got kinda scared, Queen Vera is great with the writing while I go with mainly posting of sexy bodies (hard work that too..) but am looking forward to hijacking her blog for a week with some [...]

Happy Father's Day! (Jamie Bamber)

I discovered this hawt guy while watching an episode of Law and Order UK. I should've started watching it sooner. Yowza!  And ladies, he's happily married with three daughters. Just look from a distance.     Yes, ladies, you're welcome. Filed under: V-Spots Tagged: happy father's day, jamie bamber

Happy Father's Day! (Jason Momoa)

I have to be fair: Mother's (MILF's) Day on the Intoxication was such a success, I had to do the same for the fathers out there. I'm sure my female readership would be greatly appreciative. So we're going to kick this off with a new crush of mine. Well, he's not really a new crush; [...]

Where Do I Get My Inspiration From?

It's been a great week! When deciding the price of S&M, I took in account several factors: 1) story length, 2) story quality, and 3) maximum exposure. It wasn't an automatic, 'Hey, let's price this at 99 cents!' I had to really think about it.  Ultimately, with the help of my manager (Maks), we agreed [...]

Look, ma, I'm famous!

  Or at least I'm getting there… I once read somewhere (I'm assuming one of the gazillion writing/self-publishing/industry blogs I follow) that writing is the easy part. It's when you start promoting and networking it gets, well, interesting.  No kidding! One of my writer friends told me she spent a minimum of 16 hours daily [...]

You know I had a nice and pretty blog post all typed up...

And somehow a computer ate it. Specifically one of the computers I use at work. I don't know what happened to it. I'm so distressed *sad panda face*

No, not really. But it's fun to be dramatic for the sake of being dramatic.

So, the first week sales of S&M are doing pretty well. In fact, the first week sales of S&M are much higher than The Erotic Intoxication. Maybe it's the price? Or my relentless promotion nonstop? Or maybe you just like reading what I have to write? Any or all of the above, it's worked in my favor. I thank you.

I am working on a title to be released next month. To those who are on my Facebook page or follow me on twitter, this is the 'big' announcement. Since I just released S&M almost a week ago and June is ending in a little over two weeks, I have my work cut out for me. What's the title? Not sure yet. Is it a follow-up to S&M? That I can definitely tell you 'not yet.' (Take that for what it's worth.)

This next title, I'm going back to my roots - romance. As I perfect my writing more, I'm going back to storytelling. I like writing erotica but I love writing romance more. Maybe it's erotic romance? Who knows? All I do know is that I enjoy it very much. I hope you will too.

The life of a writer...everyday I'm hustling...

Sex and the Married Woman: BDSM R Us, Pt. II…Oh, Ms. Nikki Nefarious…

When I last left you, we were talking about our first experience at Everything To Do With Sex show in Los Angeles. (For a recap, please click here). We had an interesting lesson on sensory deprivation and the big effect it has on the BDSM lifestyle; now let's talk about rope-tying. Bondage, mainly rope-tying, has [...]
