Taking it All Off

by Kiersten Hallie Krum

I spent most of my weekend writing a strip scene for my work in progress. Well, not a standard strip scene; my heroine has a burlesque act that is key to how she expresses her sexuality.

Originally, when I was mentally mapped out the skeleton of this book, I’d envisioned her as a straight-up stripper–erm, erotic dancer–but my friend and critique partner made this face when I suggested it. You know the face. Yeah, that one.

Yeah. Kinda like that face.

I’d envisioned an empo...

Walk the Walk, Talk the Talk, F*ck the F*ck

I’m not a prude. I promise.

By Alexa Day

It’s been almost a year since I joined this merry bunch, and I think we’ve come to know a little about each other. So you know that I’m not a prude. I probably don’t have to keep insisting that I’m not a prude, right? You know about my stance on robot sex (yes, please) and airport sex (yes, please) and all the rest. You’re smart, discerning folks; you get that I’m not a prude.

I’m all in favor of the dirty talk, for instance. I like writing the sort of he...

They’re Hot. They’re Naked. They’re two different colors.

By Madeline Iva

Folks, there’s been a lot of really unhappy news coming from Fergusson, Missouri lately. I hope you find the ugliness as disturbing as I do. So in an effort to ‘give peace a chance’, I’msharing(with her permission) this email exchange that I had with Alexa Day about two weeks back.

ALEXA DAY:

Hey:

>>> I’m noticing an increase in the stats on my interracial posts. I’d like to keep that momentum up, if possible, and not just because I’m on a countdown to my own release date. Is ther...

Scorching Heat and Rivers Of Sweat

By Elizabeth Shore

Thinking about Alexa Day’s alternate history steampunk-inspired short storyTurnabout Day this week has got me feeling theheat. Steamy, glorious, sultry heat. Her story, after all, is setin Jamaica in August – a place so hot even fire starts to sweat. Before writing this post I looked up the forecast in Kingston. “Dangerous heat index. Limit outdoor exposure.” It’s 91 degrees F but feels like 111. Andthe big kicker – intense humidity. The kind of humidity that makes your hair...

Celebrating Romance—ALL Shades (Read a Romance Month!)

By Liz Everly

I’m so happy to be asked to be a part of Read a Romance Month (RARM) blogger day, especially during the week when we at Lady Smut are acknowledging one of our own—Alexa Day, whose short story “Turnabout” is published this week!

When I first started writing romance, I read about the “rules ” or “conventions” of the romance genre. Rules about which time periods and settings to write about, rules about how many sex scenes to include, and rules about the mixing of races. Write outside...

Make the First Move

by Kiersten Hallie Krum

Even the most staunch feminist would have to admit we live in a remarkable (though imperfect) era of immense opportunity for women, an era in which the prestigious Fields Medal, the Nobel Prize of Mathematics, is awarded to a woman for the first time. Yet despite the many advances in women’s rights over the last century, hell over the last half century, the idea of a woman asking a man out on a date is still…wonky. The tradition of “the man asks” still holds general swa...

She Also Serves: What Makes Obedience Hot?

By Alexa Day

On Friday, Musa Publishing launched Eros, its new line of erotic stories, and I’m proud to be one of the line’s first authors. My short story, “Turnabout Day,” will be released this Friday. Check out my smoking hot cover, friends!

The story takes place in a steam-driven alternate to Jamaican history. Turnabout Day is one of that world’s holidays, a day when the upper class serves its servants. It’s a chance for Chloe Newton to spend a little time with Peter Darrow, a childhood play...
