Best Women’s Erotica 2009 Submissions

Best Women's Erotica 2008Violet Blue has posted her call for submissions for Best Women’s Erotica 2009. The deadline is 1st May 2009 and the guidelines look pretty similar to last year.

I really liked what Violet had to write about creating a top quality erotica collection that reflects women:

Let’s give women readers what they really want (as sales have shown). Let’s show mainstream publishing (who are still afraid of publishing books like this) that real, hot, authentic female sexual experiences in all their wet and raw and SMART and romantic and hardcore fucking glory — that all of it sells the hell out of these books because it’s actually who we are. Our sexuality isn’t corporate fiction’s dry version of “risque” like Sex and the City: we’re empowered and erudite porn sophisticates, we love real sex, vibrators don’t scare us, and we love sexual adventure. Female erotic pleasure, in all its permutations is the centerpiece.

I submitted a story for last year’s collection but it (ahem) didn’t make the grade. Actually, it wasn’t as good as it could have been because I left writing it until the very last minute and, having looked at it since, there were bits that needed editing and other bits that didn’t quite work.

That’s my excuse, anyway.

This year I’m going to give it a bit more thought and start earlier.

Meanwhile, Best Women’s Erotica 2008 is out now.
