Hey I think this is really good and I was wondering if this book is like an actual erotic book or if it’s a book about someone who writes erotic stories

Hi Kirsty, thanks for visiting and I’m glad you liked my book!

I don’t have a sequel to ONE NIGHT STAND, but I do have quite a few other books out, some related to that book.

You might be interested in HONEY TRAP, which is the story of Sophie, the private detective who Eleanor hires in ONE NIGHT STAND.

My book after that, GIRL FROM MARS, has a cameo of “George” in it.

[...] So I thought, “Hey, that would be a good scene: an erotica writer who can’t write sex because she’s got morning sickness.” [...]

Thanks Phillipa…I am going to blog about your question in the next entry, because I’ve been thinking a lot about it and I want to ask what people think.

Julie – I hope you don’t mind me asking (I bet you’ll laugh) but do you think is it more difficult to write a sex scene in the first person? I expect it’s no different to writing about the experiences of a fake medium in the first person but…I always think I have the distance of the third person when I write about sex.

I know a first person character is still ‘someone else’ not ‘you’ but is it more difficult to shed the consciousness that parents/aunties/whoever might be reading and thinbking it’s you?

BTW someone bought me a great (and serious) book today called The Joy of Writing Sex – whew! I must blog about it when I’ve studied it in detail. LOL

Your extract is so fresh and real and ‘Julie’ as usual. I love your distinctive voice and I think it’s important to develop one . P x

Poor baby! Still, it saves lots of hassle. I loved the extract Julie, I’m currently reading ‘driving him Wild’ and loving it!

Thanks Sadhbh! I think my heroine probably edits that part out of her novel, though maybe she leaves it in.

Thank you too, Jess and Linda! It comes out in hardback in August and paperback in November.

Karen, this is actually the only part of the whole book I *did* base on my own life. In fact, it was my own experience of trying to write a sex scene while in the throes of morning sickness that gave me the idea for this novel. And I really did have worries like that, too, that my writing ability would be gone once I had a baby. But all the stuff about Hugh is completely made up.

The sweet baby is currently suffering because he had his first injections today. Poor thing.
