Writing erotica

[cornishblonde1]

I'm considering doing just as the title of my post suggests.

Are others considering similar given the recent success of a certain 'novel'?

Any good blogs I can read for inspiration / research? (or are responders not allowed to suggest blogs?)

you want to write a wank book,because of 50shadesofshite
why would you copy such poor literature
why do you need to be so derivative

Oh scottishmummy don't be so unnecessarily derisive. People are inspired by current culture. 50 shades may be shite but it has given a licence for that sort of writing that wasn't really there before.

so what write by numbers
reproduce shades of shite because it sells
"that sort" writing has been there maybe just not sold or promoted as widely

Good or bad, anything that gets people reading can't be a bad thing.

50shades is a good example of extremely poor writing. Even as erotica, it does not work. Try as I might, it did not get my juices going!

To clarify, there were elements of Fifty Shades of Grey that I really didn't enjoy and I'd like to write something which reflects my own fantasies (weak willed women being tied up doesn't do it for me).

I was writing erotica long before 50 shades came along but yes I admit to having been inspired to take it up again. Just wanted some thoughts on publishing it in blog format.

Thanks for the useful, constructive and supportive comments.
