Topic Two: Reader Mail

Hey guys,

I found your podcast last week and have finally caught up on all the episodes. It’s been really inspirational (and a good way to pass the time while walking to school).

I was wondering, do you know anything about erotica publishing in other languages? Do the major online publishing platforms have non-English markets? If so, do you think authors who write in languages other than English would ever be interested in translating their novels to reach a wider audience?

I’m not sure if these are the kinds of questions your interested in answering. If not, I apologize!

Thanks for the podcast. I’m looking forward to the next one 🙂

 

  • Walking to school? I hope you’re not eight years old J
  • Amazon at least has the ability publish in other languages, but I have no idea how it’s done.
  • Is it a good idea? Yes, probably.
  • Is it worth the expanse? That’s more debatable.

 We really want to hear from you.

Soon to be Single



by Dean Chills

Buy now from Amazon 

I should have known my new bride was up to something when she insisted we take our honeymoon alone on a cabin cruiser in the Caribbean. I wanted to go to Europe, but no, it had to be a cruise. 

I was the one who suggested we go snorkeling, and I was the one who initiated sex underwater. Little did I know that she was playing a far more serious game. Is she a “Black Widow,” soon to be single again? 

This short tale of underwater sex, near-drowning, and fun in the Caribbean sun includes heterosexual normal and manual sex and peril play.

Book Cover Art and Opposite Genders

51IreiDgFeLThis week we tackle a couple of interesting topics:
1. A reader wrote in asking us to critique his cover of “Janko’s Gym” and discuss whether or not we like drawings or photos for our covers. We decided that he was very talented, but the drawing was probably inappropriate for an erotica. We liked his book though.

 

2. Another reader phoned in a question asking how we write from the opposite sex or gender’s point of view.

 

3. We introduce our plan for an erotica REVIEW podcast. Details will be coming soon, contact us if you’d like your book to be reviewed on the show. SexyFic@gmail.com

Tales From The Compound 3 King and Peasant

by H. K. Kiting

Buy now from Amazon

Master Aries holds dominion over The Compound, an all-male brothel thirty minutes from Las Vegas, where a gay man can have nearly any fantasy fulfilled. In this series, he recounts short tales of the visits by his clients. Some like things vanilla, and some like them extremely kinky. No man leaves unsatisfied… 

In Volume 3, Master Aries plays the role of king. Jacob’s role is one of the peasants from the village, hauled before his monarch to “serve” him. The poor peasant isn’t sure if he likes or regrets the attention, and he’s made to wonder if the king’s voracious appetite will be the end of him. 

Enjoy this short m/m tale of domination, peril play, sex, and breath control.

Grace Under Water

by Dean Chills

buy now from Amazon

Introducing SexyFic Shorts, a new line of eBook-only erotic tales that are short and get straight to the action. These are generally around half the length of our regular eroticas, but are specifically written for Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited program. By subscribing to Amazon’s KU system, you can download all the SexyFic Shorts at no charge.

I met Grace in the fetish chatroom. She convinced me to come to her penthouse apartment and let her do bad things to me. I didn’t realize at the time that she wanted bad things done to her as well, but I was OK with both of those ideas.

I arrived to learn that Grace was the wife of the city’s drug kingpin, and he was out of town. That should have tipped me off that something was wrong, but when I saw the balcony, with its pool and hot tub, I was tempted. Then I saw Grace herself, and there was no turning back.

This short, 4000-word, tale of breath control and fun in the hot tub includes heterosexual manual sex and forced dunking.

by H. K. Kiting

Master Aries holds dominion over The Compound, an all-male brothel thirty minutes from Las Vegas, where a gay man can have nearly any fantasy fulfilled. In this series, he recounts short tales of the visits by his clients. Some like things vanilla, and some like them extremely kinky. No man leaves unsatisfied… 

In Volume 2, Master Aries showers with Jason, a hunk of a young man who longs to be bullied and dominated. Luckily the Master knows just how to proceed. With sex laced with just a little fear, Jason will get very dirty while getting clean. 

Enjoy this short m/m tale of domination, peril play, sex, and breath control.
