I think that scent is kinda fraught. It's such a powerful cue, but people really differ on what they like and one person's catnip is another person's rotting fish. You don't want to lose a reader because a scent has bad associations. I often skirt this by describing scent in terms of emotion.

So many words like that

Bergamot is one of only a tiny handful of florals that aren't inherently "unmasculine," largely because of its association with Earl Grey Tea. Most of the other male scents are musky (which has negative associations for some) or wood scents. So Bergamot suggests complexity but doesn't map as femme

Since 2025 is here, I am reminding everyone of this list of bisexual books out in 2025! If anyone knows any more of them then feel free to vote/add them to the list! 🌈📚

Book cover for Counterpoint by A. L. Brooks on a pinky-orange background. The cover itself features a ‘yin/yang’ style image of two young women whose lips are almost touching. There are swirls of hair tossed over their faces. The title of the book is in a flowing script font in a bright pink-orange colour.

Here we go, folks, it's COVER REVEAL time!

Counterpoint releases next month, and look at what gorgeousness Em Schreiber designed for its cover 😍

Looking forward to you all meeting Rachel and Lisa in this sapphic romance full of longing, drama, gentle humour, and angst...

At least gaming memes are amusing and kinda upbeat?

You sign up for Renee Vivien expecting sapphic smut or at least naughty details about intimate encounters with Nicole Barney and instead it's all "didn't eat again today, no appetite, drank two quarts of vodka. The world is ashes in my mouth, going to go do laudanum."

Hey, we post what we post. People follow me expecting Succubus smut, and FF focused bi stuff, and instead get Political memes about literary freedom :P If you're following a writer, you're getting an insight into what's going on in their head. Imagine the Social of some famous past writers?

Passion and arousal I suppose...followed by...yearning? Need? Desperation?

Surprise, I lied about taking my time. Apparently I just like writing smut. Who knew?!

I mean demigods might make quite the impression. Is that going to be something they can just kinda let go and leave behind like that yoga instructor from Chino? Or is it going to eat them up like Salim over the Efritt in American Gods? Curious minds want to know?

"The words of the Prophets are written on the subway walls...and tenement halls..."

It's the problem of real serial killers (usually rather dumb, clumsy, and lucky...yeah Bundy was *kind* of an exception) versus movie serial killers (often incredibly smart, thoughtful, clever). Fictional bad guys are interesting. RL bad guys are often bland and somewhat stupid.

My take is that sex is vivid and raw. It's not so much about descriptors as authentic, provocative, descriptors that trigger a feeling in the brain that "this is happening." I'd just ask myself with every sentence "does this feel sexy to me?" If not, what would?

Things I learned while writing. Sharks have a twin external appendage like a stingray spine (or knife) that functions as a penis (their true penis is internal). On a proportionate megalodon, the "claspers" would be the size of a longsword.

The Megalodon Sex Attacks A Chilling Tale of Erotic Horror in a Sleepy Summer Beach Town Amelia Winters and Alyssa Hart Illustration shows girl in a bikini splashing in moonlit surf while a giant shark looms behind her.

Co-wrote this with my friend Amelia, but couldn't take credit because of my day job. At the time the Erotic Horror category didn't exist.  #explicit #smut #smutsky #spicy #dubcon #erotic #erotica #eroticliterature #dirty #stories #bisexual #nsfwsky #sexstory #EroticStory

I actually kind of enjoy writing opposite season. Writing things set in the winter slush when it's in the nineties, or in the summer heat when it's freezing outside. Not sure why, but I seem to be able to conjure it more vividly at a remove.

The general vibe for American life as a bookworm right now…

Version 2 of cover - "The Megalodon Sex Attacks: A chilling tale of erotic horror in a sleepy summer beach town - Amelia Winters and Alyssa Hart" shows a girl in a dark bikini smiling in the surf, while a giant Megalodon surfaces behind her. Back Cover Text: "It's like Jaws and Fifty Shades had a dangerous love child" The versatile and sensual Amelia Winters, and Master of erotic emotion Alyssa Hart have crafted an exquisite tale of dark erotic horror that includes every arousing detail of legal teen spring-autumn power exchange and other dark couplings: BDSM, lesbian, and passionate male on male and intimacy. Prepare to experience every heartbeat, touch, and thrust. The Delaware seaside resort of Aspen comes alive in a sizzling hot near-future summer. Local girls pick up summer break college students for outrageous speedboat parties while the local queer crowd tries to maintain identity among a sea of vacationers. Three years ago a series of Shark Attacks gave rise to one of Aspen's most coveted summer jobs but now the adult teen crews that maintain the Keller Biochem repellent system in hopes of earning a scholarship find themselves the bait in...The Megalodon Sex Attacks!

Option #2 is more traditional erotica. It features one of the victims in a shallow water attack (these do happen with fairly large sharks...a lot of research went into this book!) I am not as in love with the image but I think it might work better?

Version 1 of cover - "The Megalodon Sex Attacks: A chilling tale of erotic horror in a sleepy summer beach town - Amelia Winters and Alyssa Hart" features a diver underwater in an orange suit, with a Megalodon looming behind them, mouth open.

Option #1 features our heroine in a dive suit. It's very conservative and the concern is that it doesn't exactly convey "erotica," and we don't want to bring in the wrong readers.

Two versions of Cover: "The Megalodon Sex Attacks: A chilling tale of erotic horror in a sleepy summer beach town - Amelia Winters and Alyssa Hart" one version features a diver underwater in an orange suit, with a Megalodon looming behind them, mouth open. The other version shows a girl in a dark bikini smiling in the surf, while a giant Megalodon surfaces behind her.

Now that I'm full time as a writer, I'm finally able to be credited for my work on "The Megalodon Sex Attacks." So we got TWO cover designs, I get to pick - Details in next posts. Opinions? #explicit #smut #smutsky #spicy #dubcon #erotic #erotica #dirty #stories #bisexual #nsfwsky #adultbook

Looks fun!!!

And the other takeaway - Wanting dominance between the sheets clearly does not mean you want Hitler in the streets. Just remember that!

For years because people assumed Jean Paulhan had written the book it was seen as a product of the Patriarchy. In reality it was written by French Resistance member and Journalist Anne Desclos, Paulhan's lover. I can get her CPTSD processing just below the surface - that's why it's powerful
