Erotica is a real thing, sexual sensual writing that makes you squirm in your seat; scenes that turn a cold lonely night into something steamy; maybe something to keep you company and give you that secret smile whilst waiting for a friend in a restaurant.
Mostly we want things that will turn people on. A lot. No pressure. A little something like this, or this.
We know writing a sex scene is hard so here is an article with some tips.
This is a call for submission to Dark Juices and Aphrodisiacs: An Erotic Anthology.
The anthology will be available online to download. There will also be hard copies available. And if your piece is selected to be part of the anthology you shall be paid $100 for your service to sexiness.
To submit email: darkjuicesanthology@gmail.com
Dark Juices & Afrodisiacs – An Anthology of African queer erotica
“I had a feeling that Pandora’s box contained the mysteries of woman’s sensuality… The language of sex had yet to be invented. The language of the senses was yet to be explored.”
Ever had a sexual fantasy? Ever had something make you so hot under the collar you just had to write about it? Something that had you dripping wet? We want stories about sex, pleasure and coming. We want stories about desire. We want stories about when sex happened and sex did not happen. We want stories of African women experiencing pleasure with other women.
We recognise that sexuality is a complex and wide space, it is not possible to present all forms of representation in one place. For this edition, as women who have sex with women, we recognise that there are not many erotica stories written by women for women on the African continent. We hoped to use this as an opportunity to invite women to write their fantasies, their experiences, they wildest dreams. This is about sexual freedom and imagination and expression.
We are creating an anthology we seek to call Dark Juices & Afrodisiacs for African queer women to contribute erotica.
Contributors will receive an honorarium of $100 for submissions that appear in this anthology, as well as a copy of the awesomely sensually sexy final product.
Deadline: 15 August 2017
