Bethany's Troll | by XerXes Xu Nov. 14, 2011 | 11348 words | Read a sample |
| Author bio: As a reformed athlete and philosopher manqe I've found my writing largely influenced by Red Horse and San Miguel Light. Like many young men of my generation, my introduction to erotic fiction came from reading graffiti in public lavatories. I suppose kids today, straying by accident onto Pornhub, find themselves still asking the same questions. Why are they doing that? Is that anatomically possible? Do girls (or boys) really do that? After an investigation lasting at least 55 years I can answer the last 2 questions. It is anatomically possible, if a little uncomfortable, and girls really do do that, and a lot stranger things beside. More important questions are: Why don't they want to do it with me? Once you've cracked that, you have to deal with, Why don't they want to do it at the same time as me? But, the most important question, Why are they doing that? - remains an unanswered mystery. If I could live my life again I would try and hold out until I got home, or soil my pants, rather than use a public toilet - and find myself drawn into these perplexing questions. They distract from the important things in life, and when you find the answer it's never worth the effort spent looking for it. Out of concern for others, and as cautionary tale I've set out the some musings which have resulted from my quest. |

Melody in Lingerie (BDSM Erotica) | by Imogen Linn Dec. 15, 2011 | 8805 words | Read a sample |
| Author bio: I write erotica, often with a BDSM kink. I was born in Chicago in the 80s (no, I'm not telling you what year - a girl has to have some secrets). I was always a bit of a wild child. My stories are mostly about good girls who end up submitting to dominant, older men. (Autobiographical? Who, me?) I try to write my sex raunchy, and make the situations and characters believable. For me, if there's no build-up, or I read something and think, "But, she wouldn't do that!" then it kills the experience. I write about encounters and situations that turn me on and get me hot. Some of them are (loosely) based on things that really happened, others are based on things I only wish had happened! |

BDSM: Trial And Error | by Ernest Winchester Aug. 20, 2010 | 5053 words | Sample 50% |
| Author bio: I must in all honesty, update this entry, for I stumbled onto the magic key to post a story on Smashwords. It was operator error not one of the poltergeist that I’m sure came preloaded in my computer that prevents me from getting what I want from it. For those of you who didn’t read this bio before—which I’m sure includes the rest of the world’s population—I repeat: I am an old man who loves to write. I started decades ago—the exact number is irrelevant—on a cast iron framed manual typewriter that would now serve little purpose beyond a boat anchor. I love composing fiction on the computer, mainly because of the spell check feature. Why someone who can’t spell worth a damn wants to write, I’ll never be able to explain. I take solace in the knowledge that some well-known writers throughout history were so afflicted. However, I must confess, that is about as far as I can go into this—to me—frightening world of cyberspace. I don’t have accounts on face book (wouldn’t touch it with a ten-foot pole. Almost nightly the news is filled with stories of people murdered by people they have contacted there.) I feel the same way about Myspace, a blog or personal web site. I don’t tweet or twit or what ever that is. That really seems silly--just call them and talk! So I’ll be contented to write and enjoy retirement until the final heartbeat or wayward city buss runs me over. |
