Erotic Musings, Dee Dawning

Orgasms, Orgasms, Orgasms, Love them Orgasms

Dee Dawning — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 04:36:56 +0000

Orgasm. I love that word. You should too. After all it feels fantastic. Doesn’t it? Unfortunately the feeling only lasts a ridiculously short time. There’s not a lot of data on this, but I’m guessing an orgasm lasts seven to fifteen seconds.

Seven to Fifteen seconds? All that work for seven to fifteen seconds of bliss. For the men it’s dressing up, ninety-seven dollars plus tip at a fancy restaurant, Sixty dollars plus tip at a cocktail lounge, not to mention the gas and flowers, all for say ten stinking seconds. Christ that’s about a seventy-two thousand dollars per hour. For ten seconds. Even Michael Jordan might have trouble matching that.

It’s not free for the women either. Beauty shop, manicure, pedicure, new dress? Sexy four inch heels? Sensuous lingerie to be removed at the propitious moment? You figure that one out girls. All for ten seconds. (assuming the lady doesn’t have multiple moments of ecstasy)

It’s a good thing it feels good getting to the orgasm, too or we might be extinct.

Anyway back to my word—Orgasm. I think it sounds sexy. How about you? It’s sexy, feels great and that’s why you have sex, right?

Maybe not. Some of you—women more than men—may have sex for other reasons and some not at all. While researching this article I came across some disturbing statistics.

For instance, 70% of women have never had an orgasm with a man. Hmmm. How can that be? Female partners? Vibrators? Fingers? Nothing at all? You tell me. On top of that 48% of women have faked an orgasm. In addition, 25% of men will get turned down by their own lovers over half the time. Their partners apparently think sex is a chore. Maybe, just maybe that’s why so many men stray. Women too, because it’s obvious there’s problems on both sides.

More facts

Average length of time it takes a woman to have an orgasm: 20 minutes. Average length of time it takes a man: 2-5 minutes.
Half of girls have had an orgasm by the time they’re 16 years old.
44% of men say their female partners always have orgasms when they have sex. 22% of women say they always have orgasms when they have sex.

About 1% of women are able to achieve orgasm solely through breast stimulation.
63% of college women say they’ve had multiple orgasms.

Anatomically, all women’s orgasms arc centered in the clitoris, whether they result from direct manual pressure applied to the clitoris, indirect pressure resulting from the thrusting of penis during intercourse.

Women are naturally multi-orgasmic and most women are capable, if she is immediately stimulated following orgasm, is likely to experience several orgasms in rapid succession.

Although women’s orgasms do not vary in kind, they vary in intensity. The most intense orgasms experienced by the research subjects were by masturbatory manual stimulation, followed in intensity by manual stimulation by the partner; the least intense orgasms wore experienced during intercourse. What? Blah!

Now, tell me ladies and gents (if there are any out there) Would you have sex more often if you could have longer orgasms? I know I would?” Tell me if you would, if you could experience longer orgasms what would be your ideal length? Thirty seconds, one minute, two minutes, five minutes? More? Get serious. You’d be catatonic after five minutes. I deciced two minutes would be ideal. That’s about ten times the length of the average Or-r-r-r-r-r-gasm, Wouldn’t that be a gas?

ARE MENAGE ROMANCES BOOKS HERE TO STAY?

Dee Dawning — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 14:48:49 +0000

I posted this article on another blog last month and it was very popular so here it is again?

The latest hot genre in erotic romance is Menage a Trois. It is so hot, one e publisher has even created an entire line of ménage books called Menage Amour and releases two to three new ebooks a week. This line now numbers in excess of a hundred books.

Last November I wrote a blog entitled ‘Menage. Is this your fantasy?’ that generated a lot of interest. This is sort of an update on that blog. At the time I’d written the blog I’d dabbled in what I call a man’s ménage—two women and a man. Now ten months later, I’ve penned several women’s ménages and have more in progress.

Here is a short sample ménage excerpt from my upcoming Playtime with Sera. Though it doesn’t show the steamy parts, you get the idea.

I knew before we did a thing that I would love it. I tried not to show how pleased I was when I took their hands and walked hand and hand with them into the bedroom. We sat on the edge of our California king, Marc on my left and Jack on my right.

Starting with my blouse, Marc unbuttoned and took it off.

Next. Jack’s clever fingers unhooked my bra. “Here let me help you take this hot, cumbersome bra off.” Jack removed my bra and my breasts were bare. For a brief few seconds the air-conditioning hardened my nipples, before two warm mouths enveloped them and I melted. As I’d always suspected, lips on both nipples felt divine. Their sucking sent tickly currents of need racing through me, terminating in my core.

Marc’s hands pushed my lacy panties down to my knees. “Let’s get these panties off before they get all wet.” He dragged the panties down and over my sweat socks. He removed my socks and I was naked. A thrill ran through me as I realized. It’s going to happen. I’m going to have sex—with both of them!

Writing a woman’s ménage as a romance is a little bit of a challenge in that you don’t want the heroine to come off as a tramp. In the erotic stories, the woman can be normal, a slut or worse, but in the romances the woman should be as normal as possible.

I’ll tell you a secret. Since I started writing women’s ménages I don’t think about the other kind much. It seems more natural for a woman to receive the affections of multiple partners then men, and of course women are better equipped. Also let’s not forget if a woman has an orgasm, she can keep going, while men are usually out of action for awhile. LOL.

So, why is this relatively new sub genre so popular? I believe women readers love to fantasize about having two or more lovers. They live vicariously through their daring heroines, enjoying all the fruits that could possibly be enjoyed by multiple coupling. Lips, tongues, hands fingers and let’s not forget cocks.

I think women also like the idea of throwing convention out the window. From chastity belts to burkas the little box of sexuality women have confined to has been the work of men. Now that sexual freedom is upon us, some women are testing the limits.

As for the women that experience a ménage, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was an element of exhibitionist involved. You certainly wouldn’t invite two or more men in your bed and then turn the lights out.

I once talked with a woman who fantasized about being gang banged. I asked her how many and she didn’t know, just more then two. When I pressed it by asking ten, she thought and said, maybe.

How about you? How big is your kink—real and imaginary?

And what about woman’s ménages? Do you think they’re immoral or overdue. Do you dream of them? Would you invite multiple men into your bed?

And what about the books? Are you a fan of mfm romance novels? If so, do you think you could get tired of them? Will the demand for them continue to grow, go flat or dry up with time?

Think about it and comment if you like.

The Big Bamboo. Look for my hot new book from eXcessica, The Big Bamboo, on November 16th. I call it a smogasboard of sex. There’s something for everyone including my first woman’s menage. Sorry no bdsm, but believe it or not, an episode of vf. Other menage titles of mine include Getting Naked at the Hilton, By the Book and Bananaz.

My Sexy Meeting with Diana Ross

Dee Dawning — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 12:26:05 +0000

I think I’ll write about the time I met Diana Ross. You know the lead singer of the Supremes and later solo, making dozens of record albums and some movies.

Let me start by saying that when I met Diana Ross around thirty years ago, she was a very sexy lady. Yes, I know she was skinny as a rail, but it was a very sexy rail.

Now, before I go any further, for those who don’t know, I’m a white heterosexual male and before I met Diana, I never gave much thought to her. Yes, I liked her music, some of which are classics and I thought she was attractive in a slinky sort or way, but until I met her, I had never thought of Diana Ross and sexy on the same page let alone the same sentence.

I met Diana one afternoon in Las Vegas in a home she was leasing, I happened to have built. It was a strange home, that I had been tasked with building to be a tour house the upcoming Home Builders Convention. The home was a Joint Venture between House Beautiful Magazine and the American Wood Council.

But enough about the house, this is about the siren Diana and me. She had called my office and requested the meeting. It seems she was considering buying the home and wanted to know if certain changes and additions were possible. Sounds innocent enough, doesn’t it?

When I arrived, she answered the door in a satin robe, sorry I forget the color. She was wearing her hair short then, but really it was always her intriguing face that brought out her sensuality. She suggested we go into the kitchen and I followed her. Now, admittedly, Diana is slender but her derriere is not. It showed loud and clear through the satin robe as she sauntered down the hall to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, we settled on opposite sides of the large center island, where she discussed and I wrote and sketched her thoughts about the possible renovation. We were finished in about ten minutes and after saying I would check on some things and get back with her, I thought she’d show me out. But she didn’t. Her intense gaze gave me the impression she was studying me. Was she sizing me up? Finally, she said, “I’ve been a poor host, would you like something to drink. Beer, wine, soda?”

I agreed to a beer. She pulled two cans of Miller Light out of the Sub Zero, walked over and handed one to me. She took a long swig out of hers, eyeing me as she did. But that wasn’t all. Out of the blue, she started talking about how she loved roling in the hay, having strenuous sex with a well built, well endowed men. She didn’t just say it once, but several times, rephrasing the same subject as she went.
diana-ross
Is she coming on to me? Nah, it couldn’t be. I wanted to jump out of my body and see what she was seeing. I knew I was fairly good looking, but I was neither well built nor well endowed. When I finished my beer and set the can down, she smiled seductively and threw both cans in the trash, then without asking retrieved two more beers. On her trip to the refrigerator the top of her robe had become rearranged and when she leaned forward I could see the protruding nipple of one of her breasts and she leaned forward a lot.

I’d like to say I was stiff as a board and hot to boot, but I was too nervous to act. I was a lamb to a lioness. For me to be able to perform, I have to be perfectly comfortable and many times with a new partner I am unsuccessful. If she wanted sex and I was reasonably sure she did, I was equally sure I would disappoint her and her probable disappointment backed me off.

When I didn’t respond in kind to her provocations, she cooled off. Soon we were back to a cordial business relationship. As she showed me to the door I said I would get back to her and she smiled and said, “Please do.”

That was the first and last time I saw the very sexy lady as I informed her the next day with a phone call the things she desired weren’t possible.

I think of that day from time to time. Is it a true story. Did I embellish it? I’m a writer, what do you think” Nevertheless I guarantee ninety percent is true.

I know it’ll never happen,but I’d just love to write Diana’s memoirs. Wouldn’t that be a kick.

Hmmm. That was fun. Maybe next time I’ll tell you about Cher

Now, while I have your attention, I want to tell you about my newest book release. It’s not romance and it’s not erotic, but it is exciting. It’s a full length mainstream action/thriller called On the Heels of Evil by D.E. Daum and ladies, it has an alpha male and two alpha females you’ll just fall in love with. It’s available at Excessica, ARE and Amazon among others. Check it out, I think you’ll be pleased.

As an added incentive, if you order On the Heels form Excessica, I will send your choice of my other eXcessica titles, Bananaz, Tattoos or Forbidden Passion.

ARE WOMEN BECOMING MORE SEXUALLY ADVENTUROUS

Dee Dawning — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 14:57:10 +0000

Promiscuity in women

Is the age of promiscuity in women upon us? Articles I’ve read recently indicate a shift in women’s values may be taking place allowing for more freedom of choice regarding sex, even more than men, researchers say.

A December article in Mail On Line, based on a More magazine study, for instance, compare real life for women to the popular sexy show, Sex and the City.
“Being bold and brazen in the bedroom won Carrie Bradshaw and her friends a legion of female fans.
But viewers who think the ‘anything goes’ sexual antics in Sex And The City is fiction should perhaps think again.
Life, it would appear, is more than a match for art.
Young women are becoming more promiscuous, with more sexual partners than men, researchers have found.”

Life imitating art?: The sexual antics of Sex And The City aren’t fiction after all
The article goes on to describe some other surprising statistics:
· “By the age of 21 they have had sex with an average of nine lovers – two more than their male partner.”
· “A quarter have slept with more than ten partners in the five years since losing their virginity – compared with a fifth of young men.” “
· “Young women are also twice as likely to be unfaithful, with 50 per cent admitting they have cheated on a partner – half at least twice.”
· “Yet if their man was caught being unfaithful, 99 per cent of the 2,000 women surveyed said they would show him the door.”
Now that’s a double standard!

Other interesting tidbits include:
· “The survey follows a U.S. study earlier this year that found teenage girls who watch a lot of TV shows with a high sexual content, such as Friends and Sex And The City, are twice as likely to become pregnant.”
· “And only 32 per cent believed love to be an important factor before having sex. Seven out of ten confessed to having had a one-night stand and a fifth had enjoyed more than five.”
· “Only 1 per cent said they would wait until marriage to have sex.”
· “One in four said they would marry for money whilst 39 per cent would sleep with their boss for a promotion. And 27 per cent would have an affair with a married man, while 14 per cent would sleep with their best friend’s partner.”

The study, sponsored by More magazine, also found women crave more sex, but still believe men enjoy it more than they do.

Lisa Smosarski, editor of More, suggested that there will be no turning back for today’s sexually confident young women. ‘Our results show that after decades of lying back and thinking of England, today’s twenty-something women are taking control of their sex lives and getting what they want in bed. And why not?
‘Women today have increasingly busy and stressful lives juggling study, jobs, friends, family, career and their relationships,’ she said.

‘Sex is a great and free way to relax, unwind and have fun in today’s fairly stressful society.’
The study was carried out to launch More’s safe sex campaign, which started that week, back in December.

It found that almost a fifth of the young women surveyed had contracted a sexually transmitted disease while 21 per cent had been persuaded by a man not to use a condom when they wanted to.
Miss Smosarski went on to say: ‘Whilst women aren’t embarrassed to take the lead in the bedroom, it seems they’re not so forthright when it comes to contraception.’

So readers, What do you think? Are women as a whole becoming more wanton and promiscuous? Even more promiscuous than men? Do you agree women are becoming more promiscuous? If so why do you think it’s happening. I’d like your take on this.

Five Delightful Divas and a Recommended Read for Love and Seduction in Las Vegas

Love and Seduction in Las Vegas by Dee Dawning

Love and Seduction in Las Vegas by Dee Dawning
Publisher: Book Strand
Genre: Contemporary erotica

Summary: Thrust into her life one night by peculiar circumstances, Loretta Bishop, seventeen years Bobby’s senior, has been tasked with taking the shy, modest pretty boy under her wing and turning him into a lady’s man. Free spirited and sexually adventurous, Loretta is eminently qualified to teach him the elements of pursuit, seduction, and how to please women. At first, being with Bobby seems like a dream, but clouds begin to gather from Loretta’s spotty and sometime sordid past. Feeling guilt after Bobby asks to marry her, Loretta is no longer able to continue and runs away. Now, it’s up to Bobby to put the methods Loretta has taught him to practical use. Will he succeed and parlay his new talents into love, wealth, and power?

[Erotic Contemporary Multiple Partner Romance: Contains graphic sexual content and adult language.]

My Review: You are sooo going to need a box of Kleenex and a good bottle of wine before this tale is done.

The story starts out a little different then I am used to, both points of view are used and I have to say it was really refreshing. We meet Loretta, or as she likes to be called Ella, in the bathroom of a casino in Tahoe, CA. She is working her shift and is bone tired. She meets a lovely young girl with her beautiful daughter and is captivated by her blue eyes. She begins to recall the only other person who had eyes like she did.

From there it is a whirlwind of her past life and times. We meet Loretta at a young age hurting and desperate to make something of herself. We see her progress and change and become a very sexual woman, self confident and unthawed by what people might think of her.

As the story unfolds we meet Bobby, a very shy insecure boy who needs help with his love making skills. He has been shunned by his wife and left behind by her and a casino pit manager. Loretta agrees to help him on the condition that they don’t fall for each other, the big reason being their age difference, she was 17 years his senior.

In the week they spend together, they become very close and Ella, just can’t get over the fact that Bobby looks like someone from her past. But as we all know we can’t always have a great book with no conflict or hurt and yeah now is when you need the Kleenex. Bobby says some things that hurt Ella and she leaves him. She can’t believe he would use what she had done in her past against her and she can’t believe she has feelings for him.

Months pass and we get to see everything from Bobby’s eyes and for the first time I was thoroughly upset with the whole story. The way he treats his wife is appalling and yes I can understand he was hurt but what he does to her is demeaning and just not right. But I was determined to see this story through, I thought surely there has to be a redeeming quality here, maybe it was the hurt talking and acting in this and I needed to give it a chance.

I was glad I did, as everything comes to a head we find out about his wife’s childhood and we see real remorse for what Bobby has done to make her problem worse.

In the end, more than ten years from where we started everyone’s lives have been woven together to form a truly romantic and heart felt feel good book. If I have anything negative to say it is watch your dates, Ms. Dawning refers to a particular date more then once, but when you see it repeated through the latter half of the book it has changed from June of 1976 to June of 1985. Easy mistake and truthfully it didn’t distract from the story.

All and I was left with a big ‘ol sappy feeling in the pit of my heart, I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for something sweet but a little naughty.

SEX IN A PUBLIC PLACE

Dee Dawning — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 11:12:57 +0000

SEX IN A PUBLIC PLACE

To some the idea of sex in public is anathema. To others it’s an intriguing fantasy or even practice. I’ll admit I sometimes have this fantasy. Have I ever acted this fantasy out? Somewhat, in a car parked in the desert, covered up in the back of a pick up truck in a drive-in movie theater, (remember them?) and finally, on a balcony in the middle of the night.

What do people find so fascinating about having sex in public? It has to be the the chance of being discovered—of being watched. Yes, I believe It’s a form of exhibitionism.

As I started writing this article, I started thinking about all the instances of sex in public I have used in my books. By the Book is rift with them—in a theater, the ocean, the bathroom of a bar (where two barflies catch and watch them), in a night club (where they are caught on closed circuit TV and everyone claps for them as they leave red-faced). In addition, examples of sex in public places heat up the pages of Love and Seduction in Las Vegas, Fortune Cookies, Legs, Getting Naked at the Hilton and Forbidden Passion. Forms of sex in public places can also be found in my soon to be released works, The Big Bamboo, Groovin’ ’n Waikiki and April Showers.

I write about it all the time because the fact is, people do it all the time. At work, in restrooms, in parks, in lomos, cabs and on subways (remember Risky Business). Some do it fully dressed, while others take some or all of their clothes off. Some do it in a tent while camping, where they are safe from sight, but everyone can hear them, or the go off in the wilds. Some do it on a beach, or in the water. Then there’s the ultimate sex in public—orgies, where everyone feeds off the sex of others. And in each and every case the participants find it exciting. Why? I don’t know. You tell me. Perhaps it’s their way of saying to the world, “Hey look at me, I’m ALIVE!

Have you ever done it? If not, do you think about it, maybe even on a stage with an audience? (I have) Would you do it? Would it be safe or reckless?

A.J. Lewellyn Interviews Dee Dawning

Dee Dawning — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 22:48:52 +0000

Author Interview by A.J. Llewellyn

1. Hi Dee, and welcome to the Divas’ dark den. How nice to have another man around the place! Firstly, I hope I am not telling tales out of school but you recently told me you are reworking your Eppie finalist novel Fortune Cookies. Care to share the reason why?
Hi, A.J. Nice shirt. Thanks for having me.

It looks like you want me to spill the cookies. Fortune Cookies, that is. LOL Actually, I’m just going through it and making sure the tees’ are crossed and the i’s are dotted. There were a few editing things that bothered me and while I’m at it, I’m tweaking it a little. Remember it was good enough to be a finalist, but it didn’t win and that can be disappointing, as you know.

2. Tell me about the Gizmo series…it looks like it’s very naughty, Dee…am I wrong or just a little bit psychic?
Oh, yeah. It’s naughty, but not as naughty as Bananaz. But you know A.J. When I get in those really naughty writing moods, I temper it with humor. Some say sexy and humor don’t mix, but I’ve never heard any complaints.

BTW, If you like, I’d be happy to give you the first two installments of Gizmo. I wouldn’t mind the A.J. seal of approval. Assuming you think it’s worthy.

3. I have read many of your blogs and they are to say the least provocative. Do you like to stir the pools of controversy my friend?
(Chuckle) I do get a lot of comments don’t I? We are in a provocative industry, so I write about some of the things we write about. Some of it is research. I was having a problem believing women enjoy anal penetration, so I blogged about it and found out many of them do.

I think the last blog I wrote was about fisting on the eXcessica blog. Again the comments were revealing. Anyway. What’s so controversial about male whore houses and sexual tourists? I’m not making things up.

Everything’s been tried and probably for thousands of years. Just not by us.
My next blog, you may be interested to know will be about the new fad, for lack of a better word, of discouraged middle aged heretofore hetero women entering into lesbian relationships.

4. You say your age is fifty-fifteen. This sounds like a tennis match. Who is winning? You or gravity?
Damn, A.J. Did you have to bring up my age? Is nothing sacred. Just kidding Pal. As for who’s winning, I think I am. Despite my slightly advanced age. I appear to be much younger.

5. Please describe your life in Cave Creek for me…you seem to love the desert – years in Vegas, Baby and now Arizona. To quote you, you haven’t melted yet. But what is it about the desert you find appealing?
Hell, I’ve lived in the desert for almost fifty years. Arizona’s a gas though. It’s such an interesting state and really I’ve just begun to explore the innate beauty here. Even the desert here and around Cave Creek is beautiful compared to the desolate desert around Vegas. And for inspiring beauty, I’ll put the Grand Canyon and Sedona against anything.

Then again. I’ve never been to Hawaii. Have you?

6. Um -yes, often! Can you tell me about your writing routine? Do you write every day?
Oh yeah. I joke about being a two fingered pecker. I don’t type. I’m a slow reader, but I get ideas, so I write despite the handicaps I face. I’ve always been an idea man and it shows in my writing.

On the average day I rise between 2 and 3 a.m. This morning it was 2:17. I make coffee, check emails etc. and then start writing. I write until eight when I go to work. If work is slow as it tends to be these days, I write some through the day. Weekends I write even more, unless we have something planned.
Sleep? Yeah, I get some. I go to bed at eightish. I usually subsist on six hours sleep.

7. I know you juggle writing with being a home designer/builder. Have you felt the pinch with the economic downturn or are people still building?
Oh, it’s flat killed my industry. There’s talk about setting up good banks and bad banks. I think they should make it good banks and ‘dumber than dirt’ banks. But you don’t even want to get me started on this. I’m carrying around a lot of anger. Writing is actually my therapy for this.

8. What’s the craziest request you ever had from a client?
Client? Seems like it’s been forever since I’ve had a client. Ya hear that readers? Help the economy by buying my books.

9. You’ve said in more than one interview that you are a man who likes women…as a male romance author would you ever write M/M or ménages where the guys go at each other as well as the lucky lady?
Hmmm. Would you really want me competing against you? Nah! I wouldn’t be much competition. I could give it a go, but I seriously doubt I could do a credible job. How about you? Do you think you could write m/f, f/f or f/m/f effectively. I try to write what I know or at least can imagine, which is what women writers of m/m etc. do.

BTW, during an interesting scene in Gizmo, using the gizmo our heroine experiences the same feelings and sensations the man in a porno movie experiences.

10. Okay, an off the wall question: what is your greatest extravagance?
I suppose, the fact that I have two classic RX7’s qualifies. Also, for many years, I’ve lived in upscale homes I’ve built is an extravagance, though I always thought of it as showing my abilities.

11. Oh, just for the heck of it, I’m curious to know, which living person do you most admire?
That would be President Barack Hussein Obama. I could go on and on about him but suffice it to say, I expect to see his likeness on Mt Rushmore some day.
I wonder if he’s read any of my books? I’ll bet Michelle would like to.

12. And which living person do you most despise?
Since our previous president was just a pawn, I’d have to I despise his default boss, Vice President Darth Cheney is someone I wouldn’t mind seeing shot with a shotgun.
On behalf of Dark Diva Reviews, I’d like to than Dee Dawning for stopping by today. To learn more about this talented author’s work, please check out his kinks…er, I mean links:

Erotic Authors: What makes them Tick? Revisited #5

Dee Dawning — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 14:27:55 +0000

Dear reader,

As a consumer of erotica, have you ever wondered how the writers of those titillating stories, which make us wet or hard, come up with their wild scenarios. Are they writing from experience? Do they have fantasies? Have they indulged themselves or are they all talk and no show? (like me.)

I’m Dee Dawning and I’m going to put these kinds of questions to some of the top Erotic Authors in the business.

I don’t care what they eat. I want to know who they would like to eat or ate! What motivates them? What gets them going?

Shall we find out?

This week’s person of interest is highly acclaimed author Jade Twlight.

Welcome Jade, seeing how we are trying to get a feel for the sensuous writer, my questions may be a little pointed, so if you have a problem with a question, just go to the next one.

Thanks for having me Dee,

First question:

How did you start writing erotica?

I’d been writing romance for awhile. Then stumbled on Anne Rice’s Beauty Trilogy and though heck I can write this. So my next work got a lot hotter and kinkier.

How long have you been writing erotica and would you prefer to write anything else?
Probably three- four years, writing erotica. But I’ve been writing in general for a lot longer. Not really, I enjoy writing erotica

Do you feel you offer anything special to your readers?
I guess that would be my unique world view.

What are your writing goals?
Goals? I’m suppose to have goals I just do it for fun. But I guess it’d be to have one book in print.

As an erotic writer, you are assumed to be a sexual person. Do you have any sexual hang-ups?
Scat eww, ick, gross, pedophilia, & bestiality.

As an erotic writer and a sexual person, do you have any sexual fantasies?
Oh wow. That’s a loaded question. I have lots, heck I did a full week about them on the blog I share with Tess MacKall, http://sensualnsecret.blogspot.com

Have you acted out your fantasy? If you haven’t would you consider living out your fantasy?
Sure with the hubby. Given the chance I’d try almost anything once. If I like it twice. Also it makes for good “research” for books.

From where do you get your main characters?
I honestly don’t know most of them just seem to create themselves as I write. I start with a name and description and the character seems to just come to life.

What is your preferred style, when writing erotica, ie. m/f f/f, m/m, mfm, bdsm, etc?
I guess it’d be m/f but I kinda run the gamete. With the excpetion of m/m I can quite do that.

Yeah, I have a problem with that too. What do you personally look for in a sexual partner?
Someone who cares about my needs as much as his own and has to be adventurous in the bedroom and sometimes out. lol

Which celebrities or other well-known individuals, if any, do you drool over?
I don’t really go for the celebs, now. Although when I was younger I had a thing for Tim Curry. I think it was the accent.

Do you sometimes get turned on by your own erotic writing?
Oh yeah, that’s when I grab the hubby and make a bee line for the bedroom.

Have you ever participated in any of the wild scenarios of which you have written?
Well some of the scenarios come from what I’ve done so yeah. But the really wild stuff like three or four somes and the extreme BDSM, no.

What is your most current release? Please post a short blurb or tell us about it and show the cover.

Excerpt From Mistress Of Tiethla:
Alex shook her head. “The Mastive? Is that a title, like a king or lord?”
Duncan leaned toward her till he was inches from her face. Alex couldn’t help it when her eyes focused on his lips and the rough stubble of his jaw and cheeks.
“He is a very, very powerful man. More powerful than any king or lord ever before.”
“Oh,” Alex breathed as he leaned back. She had to close her eyes and shake her head to get rid of the vision of his lips on hers. Never had she been so attracted to anyone this fast before.
“May I ask you a few questions, Alexandria?” She nodded. “How is it you know our language?”
“I studied languages. Yours is similar to one from a country in my world.”
“Ah. What were you in your world?”
Alex ran through her head trying to figure out a word to describe studying and digging up old artifacts. “A historian.”
Duncan laughed, his face broadening with a smile, which lit up his eyes. “You are too lovely and well formed to be a historian. They do nothing but write and read dusty tomes.”
> Alex smiled, blushing. It wasn’t often she was complimented. “The ones from my world are only slightly different.”
He chuckled again, studying her. His hands moved of their own accord, reaching out and pushing a hair off her forehead. When she didn’t pull back, he leaned forward and kissed her tentatively at first. When she returned the kiss, he deepened it.
Alex’s heart sped up as Duncan kissed her. What the hell was she doing? This wasn’t like her. Kissing some guy she’d just met not more than a couple hours ago. Then again, who would know, other than her and Duncan? What happens in Tiethla stays in Tiethla.
Duncan’s hand crept around to the back of her head, tangling in her hair. She parted her lips and teased his, toying until they parted and she could slip inside. Duncan groaned as she taught him a whole new way to kiss, tongues wrapping around each other. Alex shifted, pressing her chest against Duncan’s.
He pulled her head back, breaking for a breath as lust-filled blue eyes met green ones. “Alexandria?”
“Alex. Call me Alex,” she breathed, reaching down to pull off her t-shirt, revealing a tank top underneath. Duncan grinned and began taking off his own clothing. Alex reached over, grabbing him as their clothing hit the floor of the cave. Duncan’s hands roamed over her backside as she pressed against him, his hard cock brushing in between her legs. Slipping her arms around his neck, she pulled him into another kiss. Slowly Duncan lowered them to the floor of the cave, laying her on their shed clothing.
His hands moved from her back to massage her breasts. Alex arched into him as his battled-hardened skin touched the sensitive area of her nipples. Duncan’s member brushed her labia, and she realized this was her first time with an uncircumcised man.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I’m a multi-published writer, with 5 titles either out or in production. My most recent an erotic fantasy coming out this Oct.
On top of that I’m a married, stay at home mom, with one daughter, and one on the way. We share our home with 2 dogs ( Molly & Widget ), 2 parakeets (Coco & Fruit Loop), and a fish tank full of fish. I enjoy being outside, gardening, hiking, and playing with my daughter. When I’m not doing any of those thing I’m usually reading or writing. Mostly paranormal, fantasy, western erotica/ romance, but the limit is my imagination. Which is a little warped so you never know what’ll pop out.

I also host a sex blog called Sensual Secrets with fellow erotic author Tess Mackall.

Dee Dawning always knows how to create a delicious read that brings on terrific excitement and steaming sensual passion. Getting Naked at the Hilton is a sweltering story that is grand. I enjoyed the conversation between the couple and how Scott’s thoughts jump into his mind, some often witty. I love the way Dee whips up characters that the reader can enjoy.

This is a awesome book. With many twists and turns. And lots of great SEX!. In public bathrooms, on a plane, and best of all the messing around on the floor of a casino. There’s more but I’ll let you find out on your own.
Oh and I absolutely LOVE the ending. I give this book 5 Delightful Divas.

This book starts out fast and never lets you down. It is a fast paced yet humorously intense romance. The story line is full of twists as the ex-boyfriend/ manager, her music partner, and uncle get involved in the budding relationship. To save her from her ex/manager Scott must work fast and strike some deals from friends in the hotel business to further her career and keep her from leaving Vegas. As love blooms they can’t get enough of each other. The sex is great, the passion is real and the emotions are out front for each to see.

Brand New Review Excerpt
I have heard so many wonderful things about this story, I just had to get my hands on GETTING NAKED AT THE HILTON. Man, am I glad I did. This is one of those rare gems that really raises your blood pressure and leaves you screaming for more. Dee Dawning created a wonderful contradiction of emotions throughout this story. As badly as Rachel wants Scott to be able to keep his hands off her for a night, she can’t help herself from wanting to jump his bones. Scott is so witty he had me laughing hysterically at times. The two of these characters together are a match made in Heaven, or Sin City, actually. What starts out as more erotic play definitely turns into a more heart felt romance in my opinion. I could almost feel the pull between their two hearts wanting to bring them together forever. If you’re looking for a smoking hot story with the perfect amounts of foreplay, sensuality and a heart-stopping romance, GETTING NAKED AT THE HILTON is the one for you. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed and you’ll become a huge fan of Dee Dawning!

Brand new review
From realistic situations and characters I could believe to sexual scenes that burned the pages, Getting Naked At The Hilton is one scorching hot story that I found impossible to put down once I started reading it.
Hibiscus, Whipped Cream Reviews

Brand new review
Hot and Steamy is what this book should be called. Tons of sex, twists and turns, makes for an intense roller coaster ride of the senses from beginning to end. These three dimensional characters come to life to give you a peak at their most private thoughts and escapades. With the final results being a book you will not want to miss out on. But be warned this book can singe your brows off, be prepared with something cool to douse the fire.
Matilda, Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance

Dee Dawning’s novel Getting Naked at the Hilton is fantastic, and man o man is it hot! I think being male, he described perfectly his female characters actions, emotions, and feelings. I sometimes find it hard to read an erotic novel written by a male, but this one was super easy and I finished it so fast, it was really difficult to stop reading once I started. The story line is easy to follow and well detailed, and it is a heart thumping read!

Erotic Authors: What makes them Tick? Revisited #4

Dee Dawning — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 13:27:28 +0000

Dear reader,

As a consumer of erotica, have you ever wondered how the writers of those titillating stories, which make us wet or hard, come up with their wild scenarios. Are they writing from experience? Do they have fantasies? Have they indulged themselves or are they all talk and no show? (like me.)

I’m Dee Dawning and I’m going to put these kinds of questions to some of the top Erotic Authors in the business.

I don’t care what they eat. I want to know who they would like to eat or ate! What motivates them? What gets them going?

Shall we find out?

This week’s person of interest is highly acclaimed author Adriana Kraft.

Welcome Adriana, seeing how we are trying to get a feel for the sensuous writer, my questions may be a little pointed, so if you have a problem with a question, just go to the next one.

First question:

How did you start writing erotica?

Let’s see, we’re a married couple, and you have to ask?? Actually, we don’t exactly write erotica – we write erotic romance. Our heroes and heroines end up reasonably content if not swinging from chandeliers! That doesn’t imply that they end in traditional monogamous relationships. Perhaps, but there may commitments among three or more persons. We write erotic romance because it’s fun for us to write and our characters have a blast stretching our limits. What we thought we wouldn’t write a few years ago is now integral to storylines and character development.

Wow. That makes me wonder how many other writers are actually a dynamic duo? Tell us, how long have you been writing erotica and would you prefer to write anything else?

We actually started with romantic suspense and got consistent feedback from editors that we handled sexual tension well and our sex scenes were hot. At about the same time erotic romance was picking up and the e-pub world was seeking erotic romance submissions, so we decided to try our hand (so to speak). The rest, as they say, is history!

Do you feel you offer anything special to your readers?

You mean, besides hot sex and enticing characters? Actually, we do write with a bit of a mission in mind. We especially lift up the place of bisexuals and delve into the continuum of sexual relationships. This permits us to get into swinging, voyeurism and ménage. It’s rather challenging at times to describe all the possible entanglements…Something else special is that we’re writing for both genders, offering scenes that partners might enjoy reading out loud together.

Adriana, what are your writing goals?

Doing what we’re doing now, but selling more and expanding our readership. Our characters are constantly doing battle with one form of ism or another – sexism, racism, ageism, classism and so on. We like pushing those issues without preaching, letting our characters wrestle with matters that are real to them, to us and to readers. We may write fantasy, but it’s often difficult to separation fantasy from reality, and we like it that way.

Do you have a favorite erotica or erotic romance author or authors?

Too many to mention! Seriously, we’re part of an amazing group of very hot authors, Midnight Seductions, and love to read all of them.

I know exactly what you mean. Writing erotica and erotic romance, you are assumed to be a sexual person. Do you have any sexual hang-ups?

Oh, we might have a few left. We had more before we started writing. Expect some character will come by and point out another for us to contend with. They do keep us on our toes.

As an erotic writer and a sexual person, do you have any sexual fantasies?

Yes.

Oh, did you mean you want to know what they are? Simplest answer – read our books! For starters, sensual scenes involving incense, candlelight, soft music, ocean breezes, time travel, a mustache gently tickling her where it counts the most, letting the tassels of a silk scarf travel ever so slowly along his torso towards the target. The fantasy of several pairs of hands pleasuring one lucky recipient is high on both our lists, or just about anything else involving more than two partners…

Sounds wonderful. Tell us Adriana, have you acted out your fantasy? If you haven’t would you consider living out your fantasy?

Many of our fantasies have come to life, often spurred on by our writing. But we’re rather open to new ones. There doesn’t seem to be a limit on sexual fantasy – at least we haven’t discovered one yet. An aside, one of the fun aspects of delving into paranormal from time to time is the freedom to create new worlds and thereby stretch what is or is not possible. Some of our characters can be quite convincing that if you can think of it, it can happen!

From where do you get your main characters?

From life experiences, from dreams, from musings, from observation. They seem to be everywhere. Sometimes we have to be very still to listen to them. They do have points of views and can jerk us around fairly hard if we think a plot should go in one direction when they are headed in another. Turns out they’re always right!

I know exactly what you mean, Adriana. Now, what is your preferred style, when writing erotica, ie. m/f, f/f, m/m, mfm, bdsm, etc?

You had to ask! We like to mix it up. Usually we have the combos that three or four people of both genders can come up with. We have written mild bdsm. So far only once have we done m/m. That really surprised us. Expect there will be more of that in the future.

What do you personally look for in a sexual partner?

Spark, adventurousness, sensuousness, playfulness—in a committed relationship, for ourselves and for our characters, we expect greater depth of emotion, to the extent that the sexual and the spiritual become inseparable. Not all sexual partners end up in long term committed relationships…could go on and on here!

Have you ever crossed any sexual taboos, ie. sex in a public place?

Of course. But we only whisper to each other about taboos. Some matters are best left as mysteries.

If so, did you regret it? Or maybe found it exhilarating?

No regrets!

Which celebrities or other well known individuals, if any, do you drool over?

Which one of us? This is a his-and-hers question – she drools over Johnny Depp, Robert Redford, Richard Gere, not to mention Dee and Nina. He drools over every female character we write…

Dee? (raised eyebrow) Yes, I have to admit I do a little of what he does. LOL Do you sometimes get turned on by your own erotic writing?

Absolutely yes – if we don’t, there’s a problem! We often joke about the hardness or wetness factor. Very helpful for writing, but can get in the way when editing. Difficult to focus.

Yes, I hear it’s difficult for the editors and proof readers as well. Tell us, do you do anything about it?

We often read scenes we’ve written out loud as part of foreplay. We hope our readers will, too. If it doesn’t work for us, it won’t for readers. And then it’s time to revise, revise, revise.

Have you ever participated in any of the wild scenarios of which you have written?

Yes.

Oh, there you go again, wanting details! Short answer – of course! Which ones? Read our books and guess!

In your estimation, what is the sexiest book/story you have written? Do you have a sexy passage that you would share with us?

Can we give you two, one from each of us?

Be my guest.

He especially enjoys the fire imagery in this excerpt from Seducing Cat, coming to Whiskey Creek Torrid in April, 2009 (she thinks he just wants to be the flame…)

Later, Cat came downstairs and surveyed the darkened living room. Her skin heated as she was flooded with visions of their first time together on the carpet in front of the easy chair. Would she ever be able to use this room without remembering the three of them laughing and exploring?
She’d damn well try. She shivered from a chill and pulled her robe tight around her body. She’d exorcise them from this space if it was the last thing she did. Cat placed kindling in the fireplace and in a matter of minutes had a fire going. She breathed her first breath of satisfaction since early morning. A fire would help restore her soul.
She curled up in front of the fire and watched the flames leap and dance about. A wisp of smoke made her cough, bringing tears to her eyes. She rubbed them and concentrated on a log that was being eaten away by two tongues of flames.
The flames nipped at the log which at first resisted easily. Gradually, they burned through the bark and began nibbling at the log’s inner layers. The log crackled, but could not resist the incessant lapping of the flaming tongues.
Cat closed her eyes. Her loins ached. Her cheeks grew warm from the fire. She dozed, hardly aware of the victorious flames.
Cat coiled into a ball treasuring the flames licking at her ear. Had she become the log? Where did reality end and dreamland begin? She leaned into the tongue burrowing into her ear.
Heat from the flames caressed her naked breasts. She basked like a kitten. Flames began to nip at her loins. She widened her hips, not wanting to impede the flames. She tingled and quivered under the steady attention of the flames. They’d started a fire deep inside her. She wanted more. She had to have more. She slid her fingers down toward her mound seeking relief.
They intertwined with fingers already there. “What?”
“Don’t worry,” whispered the familiar husky voice. “I’m here. I’m not going anywhere. You’re so warm. Let me love you.”

She picked this yummy f/f scene with a touch of voyeurism from Writing Skin, sequel to The Diary, coming to Extasy May 1st, 2009 (well, of course, he’d like to be the person watching…)

Luci paid no attention to Frank once Chai settled on the bed. She’d been waiting for this moment seemingly forever. She held out her arms and Chai glided into them, crushing their breasts together. Their mouths collided. Giggling, they chased each other’s tongues. Eventually they slowed to a saner pace.
Urgency was replaced with awareness that they were where they wanted to be—Luci had no need to rush to get somewhere else. In that shifting moment, Luci experienced an overwhelming sense of being loved. While it was a rare feeling, it wasn’t totally foreign.
Chai’s mouth encircled a breast and her palm covered Luci’s pussy. Luci raised her knees, placing her feet flat on the bed. Fighting for breath, she bucked against the finger penetrating her folds, seeking her heat. “Oh yes,” she whimpered, as Chai curled that finger upward toward her internal button. “I want to come for you.”

Very nice. Both of you. What is your most current release? Please post a short blurb or tell us about it.

Mistress of Purgatory Point is coming to Extasy January 1st – let’s hear it for the older heroine! This book has m/f, f/f, m/f/m, voyeurism, a taste of bdsm, ghosts…endless possibilities!

Not quite fifty, recently widowed Martha Richards has just purchased the old sturdy house at the tip of Purgatory Point overlooking Minnesota’s Boundary Waters. She and her pastor husband often dreamed of retiring there on their summer canoe trips. Now, she welcomes the solitude and time to hone her jewelry making craft.

Forest Ranger Dan Ford, her reticent neighbor to the south, thinks the aloof newcomer has no clue what it takes to survive North Woods winters. Reluctantly, he volunteers to help her prepare the place for the inevitable blizzards.

Martha is shocked when local shop owner Natalie Bjorg says her jewelry exudes erotic passion. Natalie doesn’t stop there, but explains that as the new Mistress of Purgatory Point, Martha now holds the key to release its two ghosts: Ben and Stella have been trapped between worlds for nearly a century, waiting for an owner of their home to discover a love that matches their own and set them free.

One man, two women and two ghosts keep love’s fires burning through the deep chill of a North Woods winter—but which love will hold the key?

Lastly, just for fun. What are some of you favorite words or descriptions (even off color) for various male and female private parts or what can be done to them?

Can’t say we have favorite words (characters sort of pick and choose in the heat of the moment what fits best for them)—we certainly have favorite things that can be done to them. But readers will have to read the books to discover what those are.
