Family Time – Happy 4th!

By Elizabeth Shore

The fourth of July is a wonderful excuse to get together with friends and family for excursions to their backyard grill, and that’s exactly what I’m doing. Only thing is, I had to hop in a plane to do it. I’m enjoying the beautiful midwest this week but will be back next week. In the meantime, if you’re up for some reading, feel free to revisit some previous posts that I’ve linked below. If you’re new to Lady Smut, welcome! Hope to see you again soon and in the meantime, hap...

Christmas in July “Saffron Nights” Giveaway

By Liz Everly


saffron nightsSo this summer, so far, has been a bit of a drag. With the way my books are scheduled, I have no choice but to work. My daughters are home from school and so it’s been a challenge. They have places to go, people to see, and you-know-who is their driver. (Yes, I am a woman of many talents.)


I sent “Master Beekeeper” (working title) off to my editor, so there’s one thing checked off my list. But I have another deadline in January, which sounds like it’s far off, but it’s not when yo...

Plus Sized Success in Erotic Romance

by Madeline Iva


I ran across this video when I was getting together my offerings for Sexy Saturday Round-Up. It’s a news piece about a religious couple with five kids who saved their house from foreclosure by writing erotic romances and self publishing them.


http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-18563_162-57589733/couples-steamy-romance-e-books-save-their-home/


They say in this video clip that the ‘couple’ saves their home, but she wrote the books and they said it was viral marketing so I’m not sure what...

See Scotland


We started off from Glasgow where I am at a conference, and took a windy trip through some of the lower highlands and yes, the famous Loch Lomond. It was incredible as the slideshow will demonstrate; what you don’t see is the cars and one other bus trying to squeeze past our big tour bus (or indeed, backing up to find some room) on the steep lanes. Eep!


Oh, and check out my piece over at Jump Magazine for Girls on awesome women of the Middle Ages. You can see where I got my nom de plume and me...

Why We Like Arya Best

Circe not happy

Circe not happy


I spent the weekend bowing down like we must all do to Season Three, Game of Thrones. A lot of great characters–and what’s more rare–a lot of great female characters.


There is much to discuss with season three. The controversial finale, for one. Mostly I just relished how good all the casting was. The actors take great roles and fill them out even more. Emmys for everyone! sez I.


I talked with someone for quite a long time about how much I like Jamie Lannister and Brienne on the...

Studs And Nymphos: An Irritating Distinction

By Elizabeth Shore


Dark haired womanIn conducting background research for a story I’ve been considering, I needed to have the actual definition of a “nymphomaniac” so I turned to several dictionaries to see what they said. Here’s what I found:


A woman with inordinate sexual desire.


A woman who has abnormally excessive and uncontrollable sexual desire.


Of or relating to a neurotic condition in women in which the symptoms are a compulsion to have sexual intercourse with as many men as possible and an inability to ha...

Miley Cyrus Needs a Spanking (and not the sexy kind)

By Liz Everly


So I don’t know half the cultural references my fellow Lady Smut bloggers write about. When you have kids, your cultural references shift. I usually don’t have time to watch a whole movie and don’t watch reality TV and until recently one of the only stations we watched on a regular basis was the Disney Channel. My girls are older now and I find them huddled around the computer watching Youtube shows more than the TV—when we are at home, which is not often these days.


My girls love...

Dark Passions: Some Sexy Looking Horror

Skeeter was pretty hot in the campy movie SCREAM.

Do you like it when romance mixes with things that go bump in the night?


I love it when there’s a potentially untrustworthy yet smokin’ hot hero in the book I’m reading. I adore that everything-seems-so-normal-so-why’s-it-kinda-spooky?vibe.


While full on horror isn’t my thing, tension tight enough to make a heroine spring into a guy’s lap is. Campy horror is great becausewhen a heroine’s scared and acts impulsively, she almost always immediately...
