Well it's been a little while unfortunatly since I managed to put one of these up however my internet connection is holding at the moment so here goes!
Late last year a gorgeous anthology called Winter Warmers came out. I asked the authors of the stories what their inspiration for the piece was.
Today my focus is on one of the authors Maxine Hooper. In Winter Warmers her story is called A Christmas Carl and here she is to tell you all about it:
Since my
decision last year to concentrate mainly on erotic fiction, most of
my writing is prompted by my own sexual experiences or those of close
friends and ‘A Christmas Carl’ is no exception. Apart from using
artistic licence to change the time of year of G’s encounter with a
man she had ‘met’ online - the event on which the story is based
actually happened during the Summer - I have more or less adhered to
the specific details of her meeting with Carl (not his real name).
Until such
time as my two grown-up children, both of whom have left home to make
their own way in the world, return with their own kids, Christmas
can’t hold a special appeal for me, at least, not in terms of
family celebration. However, it’s certainly not a time of year when
I get down in the dumps. On the contrary, long, cold nights have
their own charm for me, particularly when I’m sprawled naked on a
deep pile rug in front of a log fire with a lover - male or female -
between my legs.
Let’s
raise a toast to the ‘winter warmer’!
