    LoL. You know what, I’ve seen the use of butt plugs in a lot of bestsellers for sure. Not my thing at all!

    What the heck, Julia? LOL Suppose it’s somewhat true…I’ve used both methods in my books.

    Which is why I like reading romance a lot better than erotica. Scary!!!!!!!!

    It’s true true true! All true, ladies! The best advice I can offer a writer who wants mega-sales.
    You won’t find a butt plug in my works, sorry, but they do sell books!
    Maybe I’ll tie someone up.

    LOL Julia!! Thanks for having the guts to say it. I am a Hot Romance gal myself. Even sex toys can be fun, but it depends on the way it’s written. I personally like humor. But I don’t think I could like butt plugs, even if they were funny…

    You do have a twisted sense of humor, though. Now to tie your characters up – well you’ve had them in chains and in cages. And that certainly worked for me!

    Anytime, Susi! Don’t you think it’s true? At least as far as sales are concerned! Hope you’re feeling better.

    Sharon…LOL! I’m not a butt-plug kinda gal myself – comes from all the connotations related to being a nurse! Cages are good! A little ribbon is okay…

    Have you been reading over my shoulder, Julia? Or did you somehow get hold of a galley of Getting Off? (by Lawrence Block writing as Jill Emerson, a novel of sex & violence, coming in September from Hard Case Crime).

    Well, maybe not. They say great minds work alike. So, evidently, do yours and mine.
