The burning pen - M Christian

In this groundbreaking work, contemporary writers of erotica reflect on how their work originates, how their sexuality shapes their words and, more importantly, how their words have affected their sexuality. More than a dozen authors - including Laura Antoniou, Patrick Califia-Rice (Pat Califia), Felice Picano, Leslea Newman, Jack Fritscher and Shar Rednour - deliver an eye-opening, thought-provoking examination of the craft of writing about sex. And, what's more, each writer includes his or her favourite erotic story.
