I've been invited to submit original fic!
I'm so excited!! A friend of mine here in Brisbane is a writer of erotic fiction - and she writes for a group called "Ellora's Cave" (www.ellorascave.com).
A week or so ago, she came across my own erotica on AFF.net and wanted to know if I had more.
She's read more of mine (yes "Bruise" was one of them - as well as my contribs to the "Wild Boys" IFF from a few years ago at BirdGo) and asked if she could send a sample to Elloras Cave.
They like it and have asked me to prepare an original fiction with a view to them pubishing it!!
Woohoo!!! Imagine - getting paid to write Smut!
Doesn't mean I'll stop writing Gatch fiction though - in fact I may find that I find it easier to write as BotP/Gatch and then turn that into original.

I shall probably ask someof you to beta it.
BTW: My mission is accomplished. I've had an e-mail from a friend who has read Bruise up to where it is.
Apparently it made her blush.... in front of her husband. He likes it to...

Yup - and I've been a fan of theirs for ages! (yes - I not only write naughty - I read it as well...)
I've got a rough plot outline - Regency based - that Im starting to flesh out into a full outline.
What I do love about Elloras Cave is that they insist on a proper plot and characterisations (and let's face it - you know what I'm like about plot. Look at Bruise. It started out as PWP and now, some 20 parts later, has become more plot driven).

Congratulations, Maddy!
And Regency is such a fun period -all that witty and mannered sophistication and proper facades in public, but as soon as the doors are closed...

Oooh, good for you! I just had my first article published in a spa trade maagazine this month--haven't made a move to fiction yet!
I write a lot of erotica too (some may remember some of my stuff from years ago, or when I used to roleplay on MSN). I wonder if I'm anywhere near your caliber, Maddy!

And what does AFF stand for? What is AFF.net? I'm having a stupid moment, but if it's a place where I can read naughty things, please, point me in the direction!

Lots of smut there - some fairly good Gatch ones - but unfortunately the site also has some shockers of stuff as well.
I'm a mod over there and we're trying to clean up the quality of writing, but it's a slow job.
I tend to put my much racier stuff there - stuff where I'm not quite sure whether Gatchfanfiction would appreciate it (for instance - not sure if Bruise would be really 100% welcome at Gatchfanfiction - I feel that the smut portions are rather more racier than they like - even given some of what is there).
And some of my really smutty Harry Potter (Remus/Sirius) stuff is there as well.

Maddy. Some of the stuff there is quite good, and other stuff is... well, poorly written is part of it, but there are others that will shock you, no matter what your smutty mindset is. You have to read carefully on that site...
