With my last Kiva gift card, I supported a collective of female farmers in Mali.

What is Kiva?

Kiva is a non-profit organization with a mission to connect people through lending to alleviate poverty. Leveraging the internet and a worldwide network of microfinance institutions, Kiva lets individuals lend as little as $25 to help create opportunity around the world.

However, the standard is extremely high and all submissions will be up against authors who take their writing and their growth in the craft seriously. We reserve the right to edit all material submitted for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and clarity. However, this is not an excuse to submit poorly executed stories.

Proofread your story, make it the best it can be and send a professional submission to us.

Six Sentence Sunday - Gigglepuss

All week (okay, except yesterday when I announced a new release from another publisher), I've had the spotlight on Xcite Books here at Donuts & Desires, so it's only fitting that this Six Sentence Sunday I showcase 6 from my Xcite lesbian ebook Gigglepuss. Probably my favourite title of all my books, by the way. I love the cover, too.
I kissed her on Tuesday, and she giggled.I kissed her on Wednesday, and she giggled.
Thursday I vowed not to take another chance. I wasn't used to being laughed at. Other girls didn't titter when I pulled them close, took their soft cheeks firmly between my palms, and pressed their luscious lips to mine. Other girls understood the seriousness of my intent, but other girls were not Mitsuki.

Have we all been there, or what? The first time I kissed my girlfriend, she said it made her feel "uncomfortable." *sighs* Oh well, at least she didn't giggle.
Hugs,GiselleGiselle Renarde

New Release: ELEMENTARY, MY DEAR KATHRYN

My kinktastic new lesbian threesome short is not for the faint of heart. Elementary, My Dear Kathryn is an anal fetish story featuring an enema and anilingus (rimming, in common parlance) and, yes, I know, it's not for everyone. Some people find this stuff really squicky. I'd say my story is more squeaky than squicky (like...squeaky clean) but I guess clean is a matter of degrees when we're talking about butts. LOL
I happen to find anal play super-hot, and if you do too, you might just LOVE this lesbian BDSM e-book. Hope so! :-)Elementary, My Dear Kathryn By: Giselle Renarde | Other books by Giselle Renarde
Published By: loveyoudivine
Published: Jul 28, 2011
ISBN # 5075_1057 Word Count: 5,673
Heat Index
When they were children, Kathryn played the slave to Melanie. That was thirty years ago. Now Melanie's all grown, and she's got a Domme of her own, Pasha. When Melanie gets an invitation from her elementary school to attend their reunion, she and Pasha meet up with Kathryn for the first time as adults. Beautiful and bi-curious, Kathryn is still eager to submit to Melanie's whims. But Pasha calls the shots now, and Melanie will do to Kathryn only what pleases her Domme.
Excerpt: The hotel bed was a mess of pantsuits and dresses. "I didn't know what to wear," Kathryn explained, sheepishly picking up garments and hanging them in the closet. Melanie watched her white pumps step, step, step, crossing from bed to closet, closet to bed. Kathryn's bare legs gleamed like they'd been waxed recently and polished with oil. Her dress was so tight it rode up her thighs as she walked, and she stopped every so often to pull down on the hem.

What a body! Kathryn's defined abs were clear to see under that white spandex-like fabric. Her tits spilled out the top, only barely concealed by the noticeable white bra underneath. Melanie kept waiting for her old friend to bend the wrong way so she could catch a glimpse at two rosy nipples. Maybe Kathryn was the reason all those guys at the reunion had been staring at their table—it wasn't about "the lesbians" at all.

Kathryn had certainly kept fit for something or someone. Her ex-husband, no doubt. She'd mentioned earlier that she sensed he was cheating before she knew it for sure. Maybe she started working out for him, in hopes he'd stay. Sad…

"What did Pasha mean?" Kathryn asked in a hush. "She said I know more than I realize about the submissive thing. What was she talking about?"

"Oh." Now Melanie felt sheepish. She didn't like introducing the concept to people who didn't know much about their lifestyle. Some had a hard time understanding her devotion. Or maybe she just wasn't very good at explaining herself. She knew in her heart what Pasha meant to her, but she could never seem to get the words out.

"Pasha's heard all the stories of when we were kids," Melanie said. "How you asked me to tell you what to do. I gave you commands and you carried them out: tie my shoes, eat a piece of liver, put that traffic cone on your head…remember that?" She couldn't conceal her smile. "When we were really young, I mean."

With a chuckle, Kathryn said, "Oh, yeah. That was stupid. I don't know why I was like that. I just didn't want to make decisions for myself, I guess."

"It's not stupid." Melanie sat on the edge of the bed. It was comfy, and probably a king. Too bad they wouldn't be fucking in it tonight, all three of them. She knew precisely what Pasha wanted.

The bathroom door opened with a squeak and Pasha called, "Come here, my dears."

Sliding off the high mattress, Melanie walked directly to her Domme and sensed Kathryn following behind. "She is going to leave that dress on," Pasha instructed.

Melanie offered a subtle nod and entered the bathroom. It was wonderfully large and sparkling white, in true hotel fashion. Pasha had pulled back the shower curtain. Her water bottle rested on the clean marble counter. It was full now, with warm water most probably, and the nozzle-lid was back on top. Pasha handed it to Melanie while Kathryn stood in the threshold. It was indeed warm. Not hot, but warm.

"Come inside," Melanie said. She never knew how she knew what Pasha desired. The expectations were inside of her. For Melanie, being a true submissive meant anticipating Pasha's needs and wishes, and acting on them without direction.

Tonight Melanie would clean Kathryn out and eat her ass. All for Pasha.

Xcite Week: Six of the Best Spanking Stories 2

If one anthology of spanking stories isn't enough, then you might need Six of the Best Spanking Stories 2!Six spanking new stories by your favourite authors...


Hired Hand by KD Grace

Pretty city boy, Tim Harris, is the last man Suzie Sheridan would have hired to help her on the farm had he not been the only one who applied for the job. But with strict discipline generously applied in all the right places, even Suzie is amazed at just how good a hired hand Tim turns out to be.


Just the Ticket by Elizabeth Coldwell

All Laura had to do was deliver a Cup Final ticket to her husband's best friend, but she seems to have lost it on the way. So she shouldn't be surprised when Jason decides to give her a suitable punishment to make sure she isn't so careless in future.


In Tooth and Claw by Giselle Renard

Dotschy's reached that point in life where she never wants to bring another man into her home. It's one thing to fuck a co-worker in an underground parking lot, quite another to have him in her own bed. Connor, the sweet and sensitive cross-dresser, understands her apprehensions and assuages her fears. Good thing! Had she not invited him home, Dotschy would never have discovered how delicious a good dose of pain can be.


Hot for Teacher by Renee

For Darren, the first time was supposed to have been the only time but Courtney has other ideas. With his fiancée sitting in the audience at one of his wrestling matches, a nineteen year old Courtney lures Darren into a deserted classroom for some hot and heavy away from the ring action. A not so innocent smack on her bare ass leads to a spanking that ends with her wet and ready to be taken right there on the teacher's desk.


Making It Happen by Fulani

Lisa has a dead end job in a petrol station. But she reads. A new self-improvement book tells her about the law of attraction. If you want something to happen, and believe it will happen, you can make it happen. Lisa doesn't know exactly what she wants, but has faith that she'll find something wonderful and exciting. And she gets it, in the shape of the leather-clad biker and an afternoon motorcycle ride into the country.

Xcite Week: Six of the Best Spanking Stories


For readers who enjoy spanking erotica, Six of the Best Spanking Stories is a must-have!
Corrections by C. Margery Kempe

Simon had worked for Dr. Kettering for six months and he still couldn't quite figure her out. It wasn't that she was cold or withdrawn; quite the opposite, in fact. She was also gorgeous, tall with curly auburn hair and striking green eyes. Every move had grace and poise, even if she was a trifle distant. Safely at home, he had fantasies of her exposing a vulnerability to him. But he couldn't have been more surprised on that rainy Friday afternoon when she asked, "Can I share a secret with you, Simon?" because her fantasy, was also his.


La Petite Mort by Shashauna P Thomas

Despite the possible repercussions to her career, Camille agrees to meet her best friend at Onyx, a well known BDSM club in New Orlean's French Quarter. While searching for her friend she catches the attention of a sexy, mysterious stranger with intense eyes who makes sure her evening spent at the Onyx is one she'll never forget.


The Credit Crunch By Congressio

'If ever the estate makes a loss, I will punish you severely, darling!' That's what his wife had threatened and he had no doubt she would carry out her threat. The question is not, can he withstand the punishment she deems fitting, but does she have another motive for spanking him?


Who's The Boss? By Simon Asquith

Despite being a smart career girl with a good head on her shoulders, Rachel has always found job interviews to be something of an ordeal. This time however, she may get more than she bargained for. Behind closed doors, authority is everything, and a degree of role-playing can be a fun and revealing experience. But executive power games can go too far between a man who's used to being obeyed, and a woman who knows exactly what she wants. In the end, strict disciplinary procedures are brought into play. But will the tables be turned before everyone is fully satisfied?


Bum Steer by Landon Dixon

It was the kind of set-up a butt-loving PI just couldn't resist: a big-bootied babe lounging poolside, bottoms-up. So, he took the bait, sinking everything he had into the plush richness of the woman's rear end. But temporary ecstasy soon turned into a royal pain in the derriere, when he received a blackmail note the following morning. Then, it was his ass on the line; spank or be spanked.


Black Lace and Wood by Giselle Renarde

It was months ago that Rebecca cheated on her husband with his younger brother. Navin still won't look at her, even when she dresses up for him in black lace, stockings, garters and heels. There's only one way to salve the old wound, Navin must discipline her like a naughty child. A wooden spoon against her bottom should do the trick. Giselle Renarde

Xcite Week: Partner Swap


I'm going to be a tease and tell you about a kick-ass antho that hasn't hit the market yet, though you can pre-order the paperback. I just finished proofing the two stories I've signed to Partner Swap, a collection of swinging and swapping stories, and oh I just can't wait for you to be able to read them!
The Couple with the Dragon Tattoo is a story about Marva and Gerry, a couple who consider themselves very boring until they befriend a lesbian couple...polyamorous pansexual, actually. Marva and Gerry are fascinated by the pair and they hope the friendship will turn into something more. I'm sure you can guess what happens, right?
The other story not predictable at all. Deeds of Mercy is story two in a series about Mercedes and Simon, who used to date long ago. He's older and married, and now she's engaged and happily so, but when they meet again by chance and Simon offers to pay Mercedes for sexual favours...well, she kind of can't resist. You can read the first story in this series, Secret Mercy, for FREE at Oysters & Chocolate. Readers asked for more, so I've been writing more!
Have you ever looked at another couple and wondered, what if... From polygamy virgins to seasoned swingers, these stories turn the spotlight on to partner swapping. Whether it's a straight husband/wife exchange, a same-sex switch or a full-on foursome, this book has something for you, your lover, and perhaps a couple of your closest friends. Open your mind to a world where one partner is never enough.

Xcite Week: The Bad Girl's Sweet Kiss

I can't recommend this oral sex anthology strongly enough. What sets it apart? It's full of TRUE confessions from a wide variety of erotica writers. The full title is The Bad Girl's Sweet Kiss: A blow-by-blow anthology of first-time fellatio and other oral delights.
This anthology, edited by Chrissie Bentley and Miranda Forbes, was actually years in the making. It started with a call for true recollections of authors' first experiences giving a blow job, and expanded to include first times eating pussy too. There is such honesty in this book. It's a rare thing.
My story "I Sucked A Married Man's Cock" is absolutely true, naivety and youthful folly coming strongly through the confession narrative. Real life events don't always go the way you think they will, or turn out how you'd like, and this blow job was not perfect, but...hell, I've improved since then, so I don't mind telling you about my young love. That said, no other published story has left me feeling quite so exposed. I'm naked in this one.
The Bad Girl's Sweet Kiss: A blow-by-blow anthology of first-time fellatio and other oral delights
A blow-by-blow anthology of first-time fellatio and other oral delights. Chrissie Bentley is a woman on a mission - to raise the profile of oral sex. In 'The Bad Girl's Sweet Kiss' she has brought together her own experiences as well as those of many other erotic writers from all over the world. From some of the most well-known voices in erotica to more recent newcomers to the field, everybody's first time is different. In this diverse collection of blow-by-blow accounts exploring an oft-overlooked act of intimacy, you'll find something to shock, titillate, amuse as well as trigger memories of your own oral initiation.

Burano Lace by Giselle Renarde

Newlyweds Lainey and Polo never knew how Burano's beautiful lace was discovered until they stopped to chat with elders of the colourful Venetian island. Like all legends, the tale defies belief. A mermaid taught a local maiden how to weave? A likely story! But the villagers are adamant la sirena is still out there in the waters around the island. Challenged to see for themselves, the newlyweds row to a tiny isola in hopes of spotting a mermaid. There, they discover just how real a mythical creature can become when loneliness and lust take over.


Full Moon by Viva Jones

Emily, the wealthy owner of a Cote d'Azur villa, is upset when her husband doesn't tear himself away from business to go on holiday with her.

Inspired, Emily instigates a threesome, and remembers what it was like to feel spontaneous and free.


The Key by Landon Dixon

He was a man used to living in the shadows. Until she came running into his life, begging for help. She gave him a kiss and a key, and those two precious things opened up a whole new, bright world for the man in the shadows. Giselle Renarde
