Introducing WATCHING HER TURN BI

Now available is my debut erotic novel, Watching Her Turn Bi. It is the story of Jenni Jensen, an 18-year-old girl who has a bit of a thing for her neighbor and best friend, Lindsay Pearson. As the story opens, Jenni tells the reader that she has had a crush on Lindsay for some time, and she has tried to be  subtle when gauging her friend's feelings on bisexual activities.

But when Lindsay succumbs to those desires, she does not turn to Jenni.... and then we're off. The story is told from Jenni's point of view, and we see students intermingling with others. It is chock full of sex -- because what are teens thinking about? That's right.

So, how did Watching come about?

Honestly... I wrote its original tale in 2003, but it was only about 7,000 words and done in two parts. It was also told from the male point of view, and the characters of Jenni, Katie, Eva Tortorelli, et al. didn't exist. Lindsay and Christina, though, did.

When I decided to return to erotica two months ago, I knew I needed a strong story to kick if off, and I thought that re-writing the original tale, switching POV from male to female, and really expanding the story to make it full, would be the way to do it all.

I wrote Watching on a breakneck pace, some days writing as many as 3,000 words. I polished it up, gave it a couple of weeks, and then re-read it again.

In my humble opinion, it's a pretty solid first piece, if I do say so myself. And I'm planning to go back and expanding the tale with a couple more books, going back and telling the tale of how Eva was ensnared, and then moving forward with all of the girls.

It is currently available for the introductory price of $2.99 on Amazon Kindle and on Smashwords for everyone else!

Shawna's Hot Tub Interviews: Dierdre Winter, author of Lost and Found, A Pansexual Polyamorous Adventure

Welcome back to the Hot Tub, where this time I have the lovely Dierdre Winter joining me and…. ummm, Dierdre? That bikini was Aleson’s.

Dierdre Winter: *gets in the water* I know! She messaged me and said I could wear it, since she knows it turns you on so much. I hope you don’t mind! *pushes breasts together just so*

Shawna Cummings: Not at all, and make sure you don’t knock over that yummy gin martini with a twist! So tell my readers/horny minions about yourself, and make sure you give us those sexy stats so they can fantasize about you while reading.

DW: My name is Dierdre, because that was my grandmother's name on my father's side. My father is Irish and my mother is Mediterranean, but they were both born in Canada. They met in the dentistry program in Toronto. As a result, I have great teeth, my skin is olive toned, but my eyes are blue. I've forgotten my real hair color, but I think it's a basic brown. Lately, I've been keeping it a sort of metallic blonde. My nipples are really dark, which the other girls teased me about in the changeroom. That bothered me for a while, but now… *jiggles tits for effect* … I really enjoy the way they're kind of visible through white t-shirts, blouses, and this very thin bikini top. I'm 5'4, 34b, size 6 shoe, 129 pounds. I've had my belly button pierced since I was 16, and I have a Gaelic bracelet tattooed around my ankle.

You know what, I'm just going to put this here, because lately I've been feeling like an old sexless spinster cocooned in sweatpants, and I've been repeatedly reminded that you all are a group that can really lift a lady up. pic.twitter.com/NgQV6j3zol

— Dierdre Winter (@insistentwinter) December 1, 2019

SC: I know you’re a woman that is incredibly proud of her sexual freedom *proud sexy woman hugs… shivers as our breasts rub together*. When did you discover your sexuality? How old were you? Who was the one person that really unlocked it?

DW: Oh yes. Ummm, can you repeat the question? Right, sex. Me and sex. Well, the first time I had an orgasm was by accident. I started rubbing against my body pillow, and then I just couldn't stop. Ever since then, I was hooked. I felt like I'd discovered something no one else knew about. 

When I was a senior in high school, I got into drugs and I went over to this college guy's apartment with my friend Sarah. He'd get us high after we sucked his cock (and sometimes his roommate would be there, so we'd suck him off, too). I loved being dirty in front of my best friend. That was the key to unlocking me. When Sarah and I were alone, we'd tease each other and giggle and talk about what filthy sluts we were. Of course, then we couldn't help but fool around together because we were so turned on. That year we did everything we could imagine with those boys, egging each other on to new levels of debauchery.

Oh wow, this drink has really got me talking here. I hope I haven't said too much.

SC: How long have you been in love with the written word? How does writing make you feel?

DW: I'm an introvert by nature, so anything that keeps me in a quiet space where I can create and imagine by myself is something I'm naturally drawn to. I have published a few poems and stories, but I was scared of the uncertainty of writing full time. I teach Art and English at a high school, and I have never regretted it, but whenever there is space, I like to write. It slows me down, it deepens what can sometimes be a shallow existence of running from one thing to the next, and it lets me say what I wouldn't otherwise be able to articulate. That's what really drew me to erotica. I LOVE sex of all kinds, but in real life it often happens in a tangle of sensation. Writing allows me to live in those moments, to really savour them, to watch it happen over and over again.

SC: I wanted to talk with you about your writing. You have one book out, an incredible book entitled Lost And Found: A Pansexual Polyamorous Adventure (buy it on Amazon here). First, I love poly stories, so that stuck out first in my mind. But the story is more than just five people who fuck each other — well, four — it has a deeper resonance than just the sex in an erotic novel. There is substance to it. The sex is secondary. Was that intentional when you set out to write this book?

DW: Sex is such an important part of our lives, it does seem like when we find out about how someone fucks, we find out a bit about how they view the world. 

I have written some shorter, more sex oriented stuff, but I wanted to try something else. I wanted the story to be as compelling as the sex. The seed of the novel, actually, started with the idea that heat is really sexy, and I wanted to try to capture that thick, humid, sultry, sweaty heat as much as I could. So, I set the novel in Guatemala in May.

Also, when I started the novel, I'd just, sort of painfully, ended an affair with an older, recently divorced woman. Grace is a tribute to her and for the repressed longing she'd finally unleashed on the world. So that all got mixed in there as well.

SC: We’re introduced to Grace, your protagonist, right from jump street, and she is a professor in Minneapolis. She’s on the phone with her sister, yet as soon as she hangs up, she undergoes this transformation when she’s alone in her apartment: she becomes a rather ravenous slut for sex toys! Dierdre honey, you had her SUCKING A DILDO ON A COUNTER! Grace is obviously an incredibly sexual creature…and I think there’s a little bit of you in Grace, given your professional life outside of fiction. So how did you create Grace to be like this?

DW: There is definitely a lot of me in there. My public persona as a teacher must be chaste and even a bit prudish, but I love coming home and shedding that skin. 

There's a part in the novel about Grace almost failing out of high school because of chronic masturbation, and that's all about me. The more stress I'm under, the more ferociously I masturbate. When I really need to put the day behind me, I'll do exactly as Grace does. I love to slide my buttplug in, get the drool running down the counter, while I work myself into a frenzy.

Anyway… what was I saying? Yes, masturbation! I love it. But, sex, too. I love dirty, sweaty, loud, creative sex. I like to be bent over the sink. I like to be chased around the house and tackled in the hallway. I like the thrill of almost getting caught, and the jolt of the unexpected.

Of course, I do know that it doesn't happen as easily in real life as it does in erotica. Great sex takes great communication and practice. Writing helps me to clarify what I want.

SC: Grace gets to Guatemala at the behest of a former lover, Michael, her former instructor and mentor. He, too, has gone through a change off the page, too. And now he’s hunting for treasure in Central America. How difficult was it to plot this novel, and how much research into this vast world did you have to do?

DW: I did some research about the Mayans and about Guatemala, but I had an interest in that already. It was challenging to plot the novel because as much as I tried to plan ahead, as I wrote the novel, the characters changed the story from what I'd imagined. Then the story had to sit for a few weeks until, all of a sudden, the solution presented itself. I was happy with the way it worked because it seemed pretty natural given the characters, but at the same time, I think I'd like to try tighter plotting in the future because sometimes I felt like I didn't want to get them in too much trouble for fear I wouldn't be able to get them out of it.

SC: In addition to all of this, there’s a little bit of a thriller aspect to this story, too. It looks like this will appeal to a broad range of readers. What did you have to read in order to make these parts life like to you and to the reader?

DW: Actually, the book was more inspired by movies like Indiana Jones or Tomb Raider or The Mummy. I love those rollicking adventure movies where the good guys win, but not without having to outsmart and out dare their adversaries.

SC: Is there anything new in the works with these characters? Or are you working on something completely different now?

DW: I'm working on a new book about a woman who moves to a small town. She meets a man, well actually she meets a number of men, but one in particular. Just as they are falling in love, his ex-wife shows up threatening to expose some potentially damaging secrets. Of course, there's lots of sex along the way with her new boss, Bethany, her neighbors, Luke and Daniel, and Caroline, the bratty barista.

SC: Now… *takes bikini top off* Dear Dierdre, what would I — or any of my dear horny minions — have to do in order to seduce Y.O.U.? Is there something to it? Do women have to show you their panties? Do men have to hold their hands about 10 inches apart and point to their crotch? Come on, give us the secret.

DW: Oh dear, well taking your top off is a pretty good start, and honestly, I'm pretty easy. All I need is to feel a little bit of danger balanced with a bit of safety. In other words, I like you to make me squirm with anticipation, wondering what kind of crazy things you'll do, how hard you'll spank me, or how roughly you'll fuck me, or how long you'll choke me, but at the same time, I need to know that you're going to be cool, trustworthy, loaded with integrity, and in it for both our pleasure. As soon as I feel that, I'm all yours!

SC: Thank you so much, Dierdre, for coming into my Hot Tub and talking about your book. Seeing you dripping and talking about your work is a thrill for me, and has me drenched in so many different ways. I hope you can stay a little while longer…. *bats eyelashes*

DW: Thank you for having me. I love the position of this one jet. It seems to be bubbling right against my clit. Truthfully, it has made it pretty hard to concentrate. I hope I didn't blather on too much. Thanks again!

How to properly pay tribute to your Empress of Arousal: a guide

As we're now in the last minutes of me being unpublished -- Watching Her Turn Bi is well on the way -- I want to go over a few things with my current horny minions, and maybe some future ones, as well.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I love communicating and interacting with my readers! Whether it be on Twitter or on my brand new Facebook page (please click "See First" so that my organic reach isn't shit) or even by email, I love hearing from my readers. I love hearing what my words do to you, whether they make you wet or your cock rock hard, or if they pleased you enough to make you jump onto your partner and have delicious sex.

Seriously, I want to hear about the sexy times.

So with that said, I want to go over a couple of things I want to see/read:

Orgasm count

One of the things that I love knowing about is how many times I made you cum with my words; one particular erotica author told me that, after I sent her a pre-publication copy of Watching, I made her cum four times (at least), and made her change her bed linen. She then had four orgasms the next night in re-reading it. That made me so wet! No, I'm not kidding, and no, I'm not telling you who she is.

If you let me know how many orgasms I gave you, I'm telling you, it will make me smile a mile/several kilometers wide.

Cum tributes

More for the male readership: I know that a lot of men give cum tributes to pornstars, mainly by printing out the XXX star's photo, whipping out their cock, jerking it, and sending wave upon wave of cum onto the paper. They then take a picture and send it to the pornstar.

This is something one can do with my book on their e-reader! Open the book to the cover, whip your dick out, jerk it, cum on the screen. Take that photo, then clean up your mess.

Wet panties

For the ladies! You know you get wet panties from seeing my sexy words... how about showing me what my words do to you? If you're reading me with panties on, don't take them off right away when you're done: take a photo! Show me how wet you get, show me the discoloration.

Heck, if you want to show me the inside of your panties, I wouldn't be offended, either. Whip 'em off and show me just how wet you get!

Nudes (optional)

Who doesn't love seeing the nude form? It's beauty in its most simplistic; everyone is naked under their clothes!

And you know what? I wouldn't mind seeing my sexy readers in the buff, especially after they've had a sampling of the Empress! Show me those hard cocks (but please, get rid of the damn hair!), those wet pussies, those heaving breasts, those cute asses! Nothing would bring me more pleasure than seeing you!

Dropping me a line

Even if you don't do any of those things, feel free to drop me an email and let me know how much my book meant to you! I love hearing from my naughty readers!

Leaving a review on Amazon/Goodreads

This is most important (burying the lede, Shawna!). We need readers to leave an honest review! Did you like the book? Did you hate it? Did it arouse you to the point that you couldn't stop masturbating to it? Other readers need to know what YOU thought about the book.

And this goes for mainstream books, as well. Read them all, Review them all, I say!

Shawna's Hot Tub Interviews: Aleson Alexander, Author of outstanding smut

Welcome back to my Hot Tub! Today, we are honored and truly humbled by the presence of a gorgeous woman that I am totally in like with, erotica author Aleson Alexander, a sexy denizen of the Rocky Mountains. Aleson currently has seven ebooks out and has only been publishing professionally since September of 2019. She writes several different topics, which we’ll delve into during this piece, which I hope will certainly titillate you and get you to check out Allie’s books.

And for the record, only I am allowed to call her Allie.

Shawna Cummings: Well hello, gorgeous Aleson! That rainbow bikini is quite something. Almost like a kaleidoscope in my eyes!

Aleson Alexander: *blushes* What, this old thing? No, I wanted to wear this to celebrate you, sweetheart!

SC: I definitely appreciate the boost in the morale, given the way it lifts and enhances your delicious bust. And speaking of delicious, sweetie, I believe I have picked out an amazing Riesling that I know from experience is your absolute favorite.

AA: OMFG you are a doll! Fill that glass up, and I’ll tell you when to stop.

SC: I hope you never want me to stop. So tell my readers/horny minions about yourself, and make sure you give us those sexy stats so they can fantasize about you while reading.

AA: Well, I'm Aleson, which I know is kind of a weird spelling, but then I'm a weird person. I love writing erotic romance and erotica more than just about anything else in the world. You can see from my writing that I'm really into making sure that people see the visuals just as I do, so here's some visuals... Red-orange hair, pale milk-white skin, bright green eyes, 5'7", 134lbs, size 6, 36B, size 9 shoe. Feel free to masturbate to that. I won't be offended. In fact, I'll take it as a compliment. :)

SC: In our talks together, I know you’re a woman that is incredibly proud of her sexual freedom *proud woman hugs… shivers as our breasts rub together*. When did you discover your sexuality? How old were you? Who was the one person that really unlocked it?

AA: Mmm…nothing feels as good against your breasts against another pair of breasts. That sensual feeling makes you want to do such naughty things.  Ahem, anyway.  I don't like gender as an idea, as a way to classify people. I just think people are people and if someone interests you then you should approach them. If they aren't interested, don't worry about it and just move on to the next person who catches your eye. I don't consider myself bisexual or even pansexual, at least as I understand those words. I consider myself omnisexual. I can't say that I've coined the term, though I've never heard anyone else besides me use it. I have Cat explain it, but I realize that I haven't published that one yet, so here it is in a nutshell: The only thing that I need to be attracted to someone is...something. What that something is, I have no idea. I've stopped trying to figure it out. None of my love interests seem to have anything in common other than that they are all human. I just go with it now. It doesn't matter if you're female or male, trans or cis, short or tall, fat or skinny, 21 or 71, wheelchair-bound or marathon ready. Just have that something and I'm yours.

I was introduced to sex extremely young. I hadn't set foot in school yet. There was a lot of stuff going on, but during a brief respite, I remember being in a bed laying between two friends, a boy and a girl, and thinking that I wanted to touch them both so much. That's when I knew that I didn't love boys or girls; I love people.  

SC: How long have you been in love with the written word? How does writing make you feel?

AA: I’ve loved writing almost as long as I can remember. Writing makes me feel free. It's transportive. When I write, I feel like I am letting people in on this seeing this amazing world that I see and I want them to be as awed as I am by it. I write poetry as well.

SC: I want to talk with you about your yummy books and serials, because if there’s one thing I love about your work, it’s your style. It’s care-free and intimate all at once. You have such skill with the pen. You have this knack for pulling the reader into the scene, and into bed with the characters. What’s your secret?

AA: *gives you a quick peck on the cheek* Thank you for saying that. I've been told that my style is 'weird' all of my life, but no one can tell me what they mean by that. What I do is no secret. I try to take the reader by the hand and bring them through the portal of the pages into the world that I see. I want them to walk with me for a while so that I can show them this wondrous place that I dwell in. If I can share just a tiny bit of that with them, it fills me with joy.

SC: You have several different serials going on, and I know you also write about hotwives, transgender women, and… *sighs contentedly*… futas. The one serial of yours that I have devoured lately is about Christine, and she is transgender. How did you get into her skin to accurately portray this young woman who, when we meet her, is obviously gun shy about relationships?

AA: Every one of my characters is me from a different angle. Sometimes I look in the mirror and I see Christine. Sometimes I see Cat. Sometimes I see Leslie. I haven't always been as brave as I am now, so I know how hard it can be to put yourself out there. I know how you can find it so much easier to keep to yourself. I know how bad it can hurt when someone rejects you for who you are. Sometimes that hurt is emotional and sometimes it's physical.

SC: So, futas… one of my favorite things to read about, and you have a yummy story, Futa’s Birthday Surprise, that I indulged in a little personal pleasure on Saturday *winks*. I love these three main characters in Mira and Emmy, and Mira’s husband Mike. Emmy’s husband Jim is more of a supporting character. Why is there such a yummy dynamic between Mira and Emmy, and are there plans for a sequel?

AA: I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I periodically enjoy it myself from time to time and I'm the one who wrote it *wink*. Mira and Emmy are me and another friend. Their sparks are our sparks. That's why it's so intense...it's real. She and her husband have since moved across the country, but we still text several times a week. She is a very dear friend and her husband is a great guy. Their daughter calls me her aunt. Yes, I do plan to do a sequel. Mike and Jim will play bigger parts and there'll be some interesting twists and turns that I hope send shivers up your spine and fingers down your panties.

SC: And you have another couple of books, one a futa story about Cherie, and a hotwife tale that challenges hotwifing norms. Hope you can speak to those two books.

AA: Well, Cherie actually started out as a simple alpha male non-consent on a drunk woman scene, just to test myself to see if I could write it. Then I thought, the scene is hot, but it's too common, too boring. Then I read something that got me thinking about my own appreciation of futas. I started thinking that it's not really much of a step to imagine that it's a futa who takes advantage of her, that I could make it a bit more consensual with the same intensity, and that if this man-eating woman has this experience, how might it change her, causing it to end in a strong lesfic vibe.

Leslie came about because, well, some guys just don't know how to fuck. Can I say that? What they need is an older, more experienced woman to teach them. But what if that woman was happily married with kids? Why do all hotwife books have to involve weak sub husbands who turn into sad, pathetic cucks? How can I take these ideas and put them together into something special? I get emails all the time about how people love that book. I just wish they'd post more reviews.

There's more futa stuff coming. It's going to be two or three books with the same characters. I've already started it, but I have so much else to write, and so much else going in my private life, that I probably won't get to finish them until next year. There's also a new hotwife book that breaks norms, but again, so much to do and so little time to write. And a hardcore BDSM book. And an erotic lesfic romance. And a fun peek into a married couple's life who are happy but feel the need to spice things up a bit. And a..well, I don't even know what to call it. Supernatural, I guess?  And so many more across so many genres.

SC: In knowing you and getting to know you *purrs*, and we’ve kind of touched on this, I’ve noticed you put a lot of yourself into certain characters. Does that make it easier for you to write them and the dynamics they have with other characters?

AA: *reaches out and places a hand on your throat* Have you ever rested your hand on a cat's throat while it purrs? It's a lovely sensation. Oh, right. Putting parts of myself inside someone *cough* makes it way, way easier. When you become these people, you experience what they experience. Christine: Courtship still makes me laugh and I know all the funny bits. Christine: Love sends tingles to my naughty places. Christine: Pain makes me cry every single time. Each of them has a similar effect on me. I'm remembering what Christine remembers, so I can have that breakdown. I'm seeing her through Alex's eyes, so I can coax her back from the edge. I'm Jason, so I know how overwhelming it is to be in someone like Cat's presence. I'm Cat, so I understand the different forms of domination and how to use each one appropriately. And so on.

SC: Now, let’s get to what everyone comes here to see… *takes my bikini top off, grabs my glass of Riesling and slides over to Aleson’s side*… Hi gorgeous. If you were to meet a beautiful man or woman and if you were single, how would they be able to seduce Aleson Alexander? What would they have to do to make you melt?

AA: *grins mischievously and one-ups you by taking everything off* Be smart. Be funny. Be able to hold a conversation. What are your thoughts on the different models of closed vs open versions of the universe? What do you think about Cai Guo-Qiang's art? Which comedian do you like better — Bill Hicks or Bill Burr, and why? I don't mind if you start out a little nervous, but if you come at me with that alpha male crap, I'm going to punch you in the face, cuff you to a breeding post, and do terrible things to you until you admit that you like it. Don't mention billionaires to me. Don't say nigger, tranny, gurl, or boi. Show me a sincere, genuine smile. Let me hear you laugh a hearty belly laugh. Don't be afraid to try something that you never have before when I take you home.

SC: Thank you so much Aleson for coming into my Hot Tub and chatting with me about your books, your characters, and your sexy self. But as you know, you don’t have to leave, baby…

AA: Leave? Who said anything about leaving? We still have so much *kisses Shawna’s neck* to *kisses it again, touches the outside curve of my hostess’s breast* talk *and again, thumbs her nipple to life* about…

Be sure to check out Aleson on Amazon, Twitter, and Facebook!

Shawna's Hot Tub Interviews: Haven Carter, author of A Christmas Treat

Welcome back to the Hot Tub! This time, I have the pleasure of taking by the hand and getting her wet is the absolutely delectable Haven Carter! My lovely British friend/Twitter Crush has a new story, A Christmas Treat, coming out on Wattpad this coming Monday, and she is serializing it: you’ll have to go back to her page to catch the story — or follow her on Twitter to catch the next installment of Cora and Willow’s sexy adventures!

Shawna Cummings: My dear Haven, baby, you look simply delicious in that teal bikini! I just want to nibble at the material and let it fall into the water!

Haven Carter: *giggles* Threaten me with a good time, won’t you!

SC: And you’ll see I found your favorite cider, Koppaberg. I hope you enjoy it during your time with me.

HC: Strawberry and lime?! Girl, you are just all-knowing and totally sexy!

SC: It’s a gift and a burden all at once, babe! So tell my readers/horny minions about yourself, and make sure you give us those sexy stats so they can fantasize about you while reading:

HC: Mmmm . . . Sexy stats, you say? Okay, let’s see. First, Hi, I’m Haven and I write romance and lesbian fiction with a hint of erotica. *blushes* I have ocean blue eyes, faint freckles dotting my cheeks. I have a tattoo of a lotus flower, but I’m planning to get more. My breasts are a 38B — not that big, but perky *winks* — I’m addicted to salted caramel, so if someone would like to lick it off me then I’d probably let them. I’m very ticklish, especially my feet. I’m 5’8” and a brunette, British, so I have a sexy British accent. I love lacy underwear and enjoy being spanked! 

SC: Heh, I’ll spank you! Looking over your Twitter profile, I see you’ve recently come out as a proud bi-curious woman *proud bisexual woman hugs… shivers as our breasts rub together*. When did you discover your sexuality? How old were you? Who was the one person that really unlocked it, if anyone did?

HC: *hugs back . . . gasps at the feel of you pressed against me* Yes, I did. After being on Twitter a couple of months I started to feel very comfortable being open about it. The first time I discovered I was attracted to women was probably in high school. I would think a certain girl was pretty or mesmerised by how she walked. I thought it was a faze, but what made me realise that it went deeper was when I had a major crush on my female French teacher. From then on I knew my feelings for women was not a fleeting thing.

SC: How long have you enjoyed the written word?

HC: I actually started my writing journey with lyrics, which I started when I was 21. After working with a few unknown musicians I was hit with an idea for a story. I’d never written a novel before so I was apprehensive about writing it, but after getting advice from a fellow writer friend I decided to give it a shot. That was about a year ago now and I’ve not looked back since.

SC: Let’s talk a little about your story: I’ve seen a little bit of it in snippets, of course, and you have a yummy tale going here. You have two very delicious characters in Cora and Willow. Take me through Willow’s motivations, as you’re telling the tale through her POV. What’s the end game for her, and how did she come to these realizations?

HC: First of all, thank you very much, that’s very kind of you. Cora and Willow are sort of similar in a way. Cora is a very confident and self assured woman, something that Willow used to be and it’s something she craves to have back. That’s what drew her to Cora. Being with Cora makes her feel sexy again and she feels she can let loose and have fun. Willow’s not had that since college, and it feels good for her to feel alive again, like the old Willow. She feels like she has lost herself and now she’s experiencing something new, Willow is finding out who she is and what she likes. They have incredible sex and Willow starts to have deeper feelings that she’s never had for another woman and that does confuse her a little bit. This story actually came from a fantasy of mine about being seduced by a female boss.

SC: You’re putting this out on your Wattpad account, and you’re looking to serialize this, one chapter a week or thereabouts. What do you feel are the benefits to serializing, and do you think that it’s possible you’ll produce a full copy of the book?

HC: Yes, that is correct. I’m already on Wattpad under my real name (Haven Carter is a pen name) and I’ve found that posting a chapter or two a week gives you more of a chance to have a higher audience. Plus I like to keep people on the edge of their seats, I want them to want more. Unfortunately I currently don’t have any plans to publish a physical copy of A Christmas Treat, it will only be available on Wattpad.

SC: Are there any future adventures with Cora and Willow planned? What else do you have planned for your writing?

HC: Good question! I only ever thought of Cora and Willow’s story to be a holiday short story, but I do love the characters so who knows? I may revisit them in the future for another short or possibly a full length novel. We’ll see. *winks* I have a couple of projects lined up. I have my WIP, Betrayal Of White, which I had to put on hold while writing A Christmas Treat. Need to finish writing that and I also have an outline ready for an untitled project.

SC: What does writing your stories do for you? Is it therapy, is it something else? 

HC: I’ve always loved being creative and although I enjoyed writing lyrics, I find I enjoy writing stories more. I can’t really describe the feeling, it’s pure satisfaction when I create a world that I get to live through with my characters. I just love it! 

SC: OK, seeing as we’re in my hot tub… *takes my bikini completely off and slides over next to her, looking at her with bedroom eyes*… what turns the irresistible Haven on? If a woman were to hit on you in the street, or at the supermarket, or at a Starbucks, how would she be able to seduce you? Would you be able to resist?

HC: *whips bikini off also* So you want to know what turns me on? I love a bit of role play, it can be very arousing, as I’ve mentioned I like being spanked and I love the feel of someone’s fingers running through my hair. If a woman was hitting on me, to be honest I wouldn’t know what to do! *giggles* I’ve only ever had boyfriends and I’ve never been good at flirting. But as long as she can make me laugh and has eyes that I can drown in then I’m hers to do with as she pleases! 

SC: Where do you like being kissed the most? What part of the body does a pair of lips mashed against turn you into a puddle?

HC: *wiggles eyebrows* I have a thing about a person's tongue running up the length of my spine, it’s an incredible turn on for me. I also love my neck, breasts, and the obvious one — my clit. *winks*

SC: *giggles* I think if I look close enough I can see your clit! Thank you so much, Haven, for joining me in the hot tub today and talking about your book and your turn-ons. Of course, you don’t have to leave if you don’t want to. *wink*

HC: *bites bottom lip* It’s been a pleasure, but I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon. *smirks*

Shawna's Hot Tub Interviews: Isabelle Lauren, author of The Insatiable Jane Travers

Hello everyone, and welcome to my sexy Hot Tub! Every so often, I’m going to invite a very ravishing erotica author to join me in our tiny bikinis and discuss their books, a little bit of their writing processes, and maybe cop a feel or two. Like you'd expect anything else from me!

Today, I’m inviting the lovely and talented Isabelle Lauren to join me. This Friday, Dec. 6 marks the release of her debut novel, The Insatiable Jane Travers (currently on pre-order), and I wanted to expose her — and her book, get your heads out of the gutter — to my horny minions. She’s a wonderful lady, and I would hope you’ll pre-order and get ready to sink your eyes into her words.

Thanks for coming by, Isabelle, and I love that little red bikini of yours! It’s so cute the way it clings to your breasts. And do I see your nipples poking at the material? It’s either the cold air, or me.

Isabelle Lauren: It could be one. It could be the other. It could be both. And may I say, you’ve chosen the best Shiraz I’ve ever tasted!

Shawna Cummings: Of course! I love the reds, they pair well with a lot of things. Including your pair. So tell my readers/horny minions about yourself, and make sure you give us those sexy stats so they can fantasize about you while reading:

IL: I’m Isabelle, sex blogger and writer of sexy stories. I'm in my forties and loving this stage of my life as I just give less fucks by the minute. I am becoming more and more myself. As for sexy stats: I'm not sure my stats are that sexy — I am a C cup — but all my lovers (and those I have sent pictures to) all tell me my pussy is the most beautiful they've ever seen, so there's that.

SC: Looking over your Twitter profile, I see you’re a proud bisexual woman *proud bisexual woman hugs… shivers as our breasts rub together*. When did you discover your sexuality? How old were you? Who was the one person that really unlocked it, if anyone did? 

IL: Hmmm, I love how your breasts feel. Ehm, that was the question again? Oh yeah. I have always been equally attracted to men and women since I was about 20, but having grown up in quite a conservative household I never knew bisexual was a thing, and as I fell in love with my now-husband at quite a young age I just repressed my feelings of lust for women. I totally regret not being with more women before I got together with my husband, though! There was one particular woman who kissed me in a bar (in front of my husband and his friends) and she awakened all kinds of sexy feelings in me. Had it not been for my husband I would have totally let her have her way with me. She tasted like heaven and felt amazing. I don't think I'll ever forget her. I'll be on my death bed and scandalise my grandchildren talking about how I regret not sleeping with her.

I figured out I was bisexual about three years ago when I joined Twitter and started my sex blog and basically found out about the label bisexual. Everything shifted in place and I finally felt I had found home.

SC: How long have you enjoyed the written word? 

IL: I've been writing books and stories for nearly 30 years, but I didn't become serious or professional about my writing until about 8 years ago. I've written several novels before I realised I love writing erotic romance, so The Insatiable Jane Travers is my debut novel.

SC: Let’s talk a little about your book: I’ve pre-ordered it and I can’t wait for it to come — cum? — on my Kindle. Tell me a little something about the titular Jane Travers, what is her motivation? It seems like she’s got her heart being tugged in a few different directions. 

IL: Jane is very innocent and naive when she goes to Rachel's house. She wants to know a bit more about sex, but then discovers she absolutely LOVES sex and wants to do it all the time. I wanted a heroine who expects love, marriage, kids, but then finds out she is bisexual and learns to fit that into her life. At the end of the book Jane gets exactly what she wants (no spoilers, it's a romance so there is a happy ever after ending).

SC: You set this book in the Roaring 20s, nearly a century ago. What was it about this time period fascinated you about it, and just how much research did you have to do in order to get this time period to come to life for you? 

IL: I like the decadence of the era. Everyone had money, everyone partied all the time and sex was in abundance. The idea was inspired by a book I read in my youth (which has NO sex in it) and I always thought the time period was so sexy. And no, the book wasn't The Great Gatsby. I did have to do some research about the time period: watching some films, reading texts written in that time period, looking at pictures etc.

SC: Are there any future adventures with Jane planned, seeing as I know this is your first book? What else do you have planned for your writing? 

IL: I would love to write a sequel about Jane, but there are currently no plans yet. I've got a couple of other books in the pipeline which I want to finish off first. And I guess it also depends on how well The Insatiable Jane Travers does.

SC: One of the things I’ve noticed about you is that you’ve used your writing as a treatment for your personal mental health. Why is that, and do you think writing can help many people struggling with certain things? 

IL: My writing helps with my mental health in two ways. My fiction allows me to escape into a different world. A world where everything is the way I would like it to be. Doesn't mean that all my stories are without conflict (that would be boring!) but they allow me to escape. My sex blogging and my non-fiction allows me an outlet for my feminist rage. I can write my thoughts on certain subjects so my feelings don't fester, but are let out. I think writing can be good for anyone with mental health struggles. Doesn't have to be in a blog, even just using a journal and jotting down thoughts could help.

SC: OK, seeing as we’re in my hot tub… *takes my bikini top off, brings some water to my breasts, slides up next to you with my wine*… what turns Isabelle on? If a woman were to hit on you in the street, or at the supermarket, or at a Starbucks, how would she be able to seduce you? Would you be able to resist? And *giggles* would you tell hubby, or keep it to yourself? 

IL: Well, you turn me on, obviously, with those beautiful breasts of yours. You're making me lose focus like that! So what turns me on if a woman were to hit on me...? Confidence is a big turn on for me. Just be honest and open, and get to the point. I'm often too oblivious to know if someone is hitting on me -- haha! I would resist, though, however hard it may be, as I would be faithful to my hubby. If hubby wasn't in the picture, or had given me a free pass...well, we were talking earlier about a weekend away with friends (good food, good wine, and lots of sex together) and that would appeal to me more than a fling with a stranger.

I'm going to stay in the hot tub for a bit, I'm in no rush *grin*. I may make myself a bit more comfortable, as this bikini is becoming too restrictive. Hope you don't mind?

SC: I don’t mind at all! Thank you so much, Isabelle, for joining me in the hot tub today and talking about your book and your turn-ons. Now let me pour you some more wine….

What has Shawna been reading -- and jilling to -- lately? Here's a look-see

Even though I’ve been busting my ass — you see the crack? SEE IT! LOOK AT IT! Hehe — on my own work, I do etch out time to read my fellow authors and dear friends who I’ve come to love and admire — and let me tell you, they’ve gotten me off with their words more times than I can count!

And because I love to pay it forward, I invite all of my readers to please support these wonderful women and gentlemen. Buy their books, read their words, leave a review, and have an orgasm or two. Not necessarily in that order, but you know what I mean.

Without further ado:

The Seduction of Gabriella and Dear Hubby, by Jamie Jensen

First, The Seduction of Gabriella.

Gosh, where to start with this one? Brooke is married to Dylan, but she has been crushing on this little college hottie named Gabriella. As time goes by, the two women develop a friendship, and then take things to the bedroom. Rawr! I cannot tell you how wet my panties got when reading this story, and I can assure you I will re-read this book!

I’m not going to spoil things, but my heart broke a little at the end, but I’m happy in other ways. I have convinced Jamie to pen a sequel to this, and I really cannot wait until she’s done with it because I will be the first in line to devour the pages and see what happens.

Second, Dear Hubby.

I’ve told you about how I lust hotwife stories, and this is a really good one. It’s done in letter/email form, and Jamie paints a yummy picture with each email shared between the wife and husband. It’s told completely from the wife’s POV

You can find Jamie’s work here.

Come Together: A First-Time Wife-Swapping Fantasy, by Kinky Fielding

One of my dearest best gal pals (someone who I have an insaaaaane Twitter Crush on, and the feeling is absolutely mutual) wrote this yummy tale. Here is my review:

Aimee is a married woman, to Tom, while Hannah and James are their friends. In a restaurant bathroom, Hannah tells Aimee of a lesbian tryst, and that she wants to have another.

Fielding's style is so deliciously deliberate that you have to get a hand into your undies while flipping pages. She wants you to climax right as the characters do.

Every word of that is true! I’m going to read some more of Kinky’s yummy tales soon, and I’ve written something for her new website, The Erotic Connection.

Can We Make My Wife Cheat?, by Shay Sands

A delectable short by Shay Sands that I thought was incendiary! Angela is friends with Doug’s wife Christine, and Doug confided to Angela that their sex life is no longer great. Angela convinces Doug to deny her sex, which would make her a neighborhood slut.

Many things happen, and the ending is soooo good. Thoroughly a panty-soaker!

A Drink With The Devil and Steaming Up The Stacks, by Melody Spencer

Two really good reads that had my panties soaked!

A Drink With The Devil takes place during Mardi Gras, where our narrator finds herself seduced by a rich girl from a long-tenured family.

Steaming Up The Stacks, though…. wow. Being a books person, this one hit me right in the clit as it takes place in a library, where Melody has a sexy young librarian checking out a patron who checks out her favorite sci-fi series. And I told Melody that now she has to write the sci-fi series. Because I want it! Have to re-read this one!

You can find Melody’s work here.

Agents of J.I.S.M. 2: Full Penetration, by Lara Longstaff

My dear friend writes about Edith Moorecock, the Britsh futa secret agent! I loved it! Going to read it again! I love EVERYTHING Lara writes.

You can find Lara’s work here.

Matt and Kayla’s Marital Mess: A Transgender Love Triangle, by Alice Layne

A book I’ve already read twice. Matt and Kayla are in a rut in the bedroom, and so they post about adding a third to their bedroom. Enter Dakota, a yummy little transsexual with a big cock! The fact I’ve read this book twice… yeah.

You can find Alice’s work here.

Paradise Fantasies: Sex Club Secrets, by Lexie Renard

I’ve read two of these serials, and I had to take my panties off reading them. I’m going to get to them all, and so should you!

You can find Lexie’s work here.

And last but not least…

A Weeknight in Albany, by Blake Copas

Blake’s work is pretty darn good, and makes me tingly in my tenderest locations. He’s also become a close confidante, and he has helped smooth out some of my own writing.

This tale is the first of three that he’s planning, and I think it is a rather yummy tale to whet the appetite for more. Trust me, you’ll want more. Blake’s writing style is tasteful and seductive.

More to cum next time!
