I’m a Monster–A Monster! 10 Reasons Why We Like Cuddling Monster Dudes
If you build it, maybe you can have sex with it? Dr. Frank N Furter was a DIY sexual genius.
by Madeline Iva
Craving large hairy hands on your hot bod for this spooky holiday? That’s right we’re talking monsters today — sexy paranormal hotties, and even old skool howling towers of misery that wanna cuddle.
Ultimately, us intelligent, quirky gals find monsters eternally appealing. Here are the top 10 reasons why:
1) I Feel Pretty if monsters are ugly, then we’re automatically pretty by comparison....

Indecent As I Wanna Be
I received a comment recently on a post I wrote about Gladiators from Lance Brewer of an organization called “Friends of Decency.”The Friends’ mission, according to their website, is to “stand together to promote decency.” And, as part of their efforts, they encourage banning books that they consider offensive. Now, Lance here strikes me as a rather misguided chap – after all, he’s asking an erotic romance writer to join him in banning books – but hey, I figured I’d find out...

Step Back Bloodsuckers: A New HOT Vampire is in Town
By Liz Everly
If you’re a regular reader of Lady Smut, you know I have a love-hate relationship with vampires. In fact, here’s my earlier post about them. Vampires are so much a part of my psyche that I recently wrote a short story featuring vampires. It quenched my obsession for a time. There have been so many sexy vamps in my life—maybe yours, as well? But on Friday night, the NBC’s new series Dracula debuted with Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Dracula…be still my beating heart, and um, a few other...

Losing the Fun in Fandom
Here at Lady Smut, we’re not just writers of romance, we’re fans of it too. Many of us started writing stories and novels out of love for what we’d already read in the genre and a desire to contribute our own yarns. Writing, like many creative expressions. is a passion – it has to be because it sucks more times than not and if you’re not passionate about it, if you’re not compelled by some indefinable crazy to put words down on a page, or characters on a stage, or paint on a canvas, you’ll ne...
The Devil You Know … Still Can’t Make You Do It
By Alexa Day
It’s the time of year for celebrating all things dark and scary! My favorite holiday, Halloween, is Thursday, and this year, I find my thoughts turning to Eternal Bad Boy #1: the devil. He’s not my usual fare. Sure, the devil brings lots of cerebral heft to everything he does, but that’s because he is pursuing his own agenda at the expense of everyone else’s. And he’s, you know, the devil. I do respect the occasional moral boundary from time to time.
He might be problematic as a he...

Spooky Times: A Halloween Excerpt
The lovely Ida Lupino
We all had hoped to have a Halloween-themed anthology of novellas out this year, but we’re still in the process. I thought the spookiness of the season would give me a reason to give you a little taste of “The Lying, The Witch and The Wardrobe” my sexy seasonal offering, just to whet your appetite:
We must not look at goblin men,
We must not buy their fruits,
Who knows upon what soil they fed
Their hungry, thirsty roots?
~ Christina Rossetti, The Goblin M...

10 Bad, Bad Things
Great title, great cover. Buy it already!
by Madeline Iva
1) When you had too much to drink and end up vibing the hunky guy in your group. Even though you think he’s an asshole.
2) Watching True Blood just so you can sing along with the theme song BAD THINGS by Jace Everett.
3) When you’re not looking at Jared–the hunky asshole–or talking to him–or even sitting across from him, but you still feel sparky-sparkies flying between the two of you to the point where you have to wonder if everyone else...

Drowning In Social Media
Like Kiersten Hallie Krum, I attended the New Jersey Romance Writers of America annual Put Your Heart In A Book conference last weekend. It was a great time. I met new friends, connected with old ones, and learned lots of new things. One of those things I learned is that I will never, ever have time to myself again for the rest of my life. And, fellow writers and readers, neither will you.
As long as I have time left on this earth I can forget reading for pleasure. Forget wat...

Quick and Dirty: My New Reading Attitude
Trying to decide what to read can be a bit overwhelming sometimes. I think there’s a lot of people like me who firmly believe the adage, “So many books, so little time.” My stack grows as I get to know even more authors personally and I want to check out their writing.
Oooo, I hate to be disappointed in a book. Sometimes, it’s just that the book isn’t clicking with my current mood and if I pick it up a few months later, I love it. But others time, there ain’t NO helping it. I recently posed a...
