The Debutantes #3 – Tilly Hunter

She might be new in the world of erotica, but my guest today is already making a fine name for herself and I recommend a look at her blog – always interesting and thought-provoking. Welcome, Tilly Hunter!

A big thank you to Justine for having me over here today. She asked me for the story of how I came to write erotica, so here goes…

Once upon a time, there was a teenage girl who wrote maudlin poetry, then trained as a journalist who wrote bad news and all about terrible things happening to nic...

Seven Scarlet Tales #7 – It All Comes Down To Love

So, we’ve made it to the seventh tale – the sharp-witted will realise that this means the final one – and it’s time for the separate stories to interleave, driving our characters on towards their many and various happy endings. Allyson and Emma; Poppy and Bruno; Peregrine and Callie; Richard, Rob and Lucy. Where will they all end up?

Here’s how the final story starts:

‘I don’t understand. What did he actually say?’

Emma couldn’t get comfortable on the passenger seat, trying to rest most of her w...

Seven Scarlet Tales #6 – One Hot Summer

After Rob’s own scarlet tale, the book moves to his fellow top, Richard, who has a tale of depravity in a Dorset village to tell. Of course, his cousin the suave Peregrine Sands is implicated… Here’s how things start.

It was getting on for ten years ago now.

I was heading for forty, my marriage had just ended because of the hours I was working and those same hours meant I wasn’t meeting anyone new, unless they worked at the bank. And the women at the bank work just as hard as I do, so…

Anyway. I...

Seven Scarlet Tales #5 – Perversion Therapy

We’re on to the fifth of mySeven Scarlet Tales and by now readers should be comfortable and familiar with the characters, and they’ll have their own impression of Rob, whose story this is. At a weekend of kinky fun, our participants are sharing stories about their first experiences with spanking and fetish, and Rob’s tale is probably the sweetest in the book.

Here’s how it starts:

‘I haven’t seen you around. On the scene, so to speak.’

Allyson offered the wine bottle to Rob, who took it and pour...

The Debutantes #2 – Livilla Sanders

After my opening post by Liv Honeywell, I have the new and fresh eyes of Livilla Sanders for you – honestly, you don’t have to have a name that starts with the letters L-I-V to contribute to this series…but it helps . Welcome, Livilla!

The Debutantes

I’m Livilla Sanders.

At least, that’s my nom de plume.It’s easier that way.Erotica still has a certain stigma attached to it.Otherwise, when I meet people and tell them I write sexy stories and self-publish them they get nervous, as if I fantasize...

Seven Scarlet Tales #4 – Prisoner 39

We’re slap bang in the middle of mySeven Scarlet Talesnow, and the heat shows no sign of cooling down.InPrisoner 39 I took the opportunity to write about one of the more hardcore fantasy scenarios – the correctional facility. Luckily for Emma, the submissive who is fascinated by this idea, she has a wealthy and influential lover who can make this, if not completely real for her, at least close to it. She is subjected to some tough punishment – but at the heart of the story is the loving and t...

Seven Scarlet Tales #3 – Two Tops One Crop

I’ve reached the third of mySeven Scarlet Tales and I’ll admit straight out that this was the story I most enjoyed writing. The scenario of a submissive woman with two dominant lovers, neither of whom have yet met but who have become so curious about each other that they have to, had been knocking about at the back of my mind for ages. Lucy is one lucky lady, I think.

Here’s the opening:

The brochure hadn’t lied. The cottage was as isolated and rustic as promised, with an Aga in the kitchen, a...

Seven Scarlet Tales #2 – Tea And Ceremony

Welcome back to my cheat’s guide toSeven Scarlet Tales. Tonight I’m talking about the second story in the series, which introduces us to some recurring characters and the Geisha Garden spanking club, down in Soho. While most of Soho has been sanitised, the area around Brewer Street is still delightfully seedy, and it is this vibe that I find exciting to write about.

I don’t know if there is such a thing as a spanking club, in the sense of the Geisha Garden – I suspect not – but it makes for an...
