How to write (or not)

Maybe one day, if I keep working at it, I will be able to write porn like this...

or maybe not!
I can't believe a) this is for real and b) it is actually published!!! (And according to the author's website, award-winning???)

I thought this has got to be a mickey take but I've been perusing her website, and it would appear not (or if it is, then it is an awesomely elaborate hoax and deserves an award)!

She mentions on one page "Would you believe that I got an email from Magnus Eriksson in Denmark? I'm not kidding. Who would have thought when I named my hero in THE VERY VIRILE VIKING that he would have a namesake in modern times?"

Words fail me! BFBL!

So I was still goggling over THE VERY VIRILE VIKING when the full sentence registered and I choked on my tiffin. Just--she believed that name was so unique that--what--whatwhat.

I read the first few pages of the book on Amazon. There's no hilariously bad porn (woe!) but the writing is... average, if problematic.

The quote above is most likely made-up though. Because come on. "galloping abs"?

Well, she does promise laughter as well as excitement etc - oh and her latest books are about vampire angels - or as she calls them vangels. Who are then pitted against Lucifer's demon vampires called Lucipires.

Yup.

I read that. It sounds like it could make for a hilariously irreverent story.

Also, I kind of want that to be the main theme of SPN s8.

Well they haven't started filming yet so here's your chance to pitch it to Jeremy Carver !! Maybe mix it with ash_carpenter's anti-kink series and we could have a blockbuster comedy on our hands...
