Hi, #Smutcember. I'm Jessica, writer of high heat, sweet, monster romances. (I write other stuff but haven't published any of it yet.) Think I'm mostly going to focus on Leander and Maya from my first book, Getting My Goat. Leander is an ancient satyr and Maya is a late-middle-age software engineer.

Hello, y'all! I'm Artemis Quinn and I write dark fantasy and horror!
I don't publish most of the smut I write, but there are three characters in The Night Garden universe. Ebony Bone and Abyss Kennedy start to see each other through a feeding arrangement, it's sapphic and kinky. (1/2)

Oooh, I may occasionally dip into this one this month.
I do have a trilogy of erotic novellas about a therapist who moonlights as a sex worker. I have a couple weirder erotic shorts as well.
Most of my main novels arent real spicy though, so we'll see how I feel as the prompts pop up.❤️

I'm Nina. Writing lesbian D/s erotica and similar helps keep me sane. Editing does the opposite, so I rarely publish. This month I'm working on a filthy yuri short tentatively titled Temping at Praisekink Editing Services featuring Dommes from my past works in one place and a new sub. #Smutcember 👠🧎♀️

I've done a lot of writing in my life, but writing a eulogy for a friend is different.
You must remember all the things you love about them, all the things you miss the most, because that's what you're honoring.
And somehow, distill that into words, when it was and is so much more.
This is hard.

Colonialism sucks. Gratitude's good though.
I'm so grateful for all the kind, thoughtful people I've met here on BSky; and for all the chats and prompt games and learning about other peoples' worlds. What a gift!
And THANK YOU everyone who's given my work a chance; it means so much to share it.

Absolutely yes; Emile isn't really over his first love Xiomara and luckily she's pretty great. I'm still figuring out at what point I'm going to throw her at his university polycule (step 1: finish getting the 'cule together. 😅 WE'LL GET THERE) but she's not gone for good, just for now~ #Lovember
Today's random #Lovember #WritingPrompt for the #WriteSky #WritingCommunity:
Would your character(s) still fall for their first love(s)?
If it doesn't make sense to answer for romantic love, you can talk about some other sort of "first love".

Emile LOVES being told what to do 😂 it's very comforting for him. Given that, he often draws people who prefer the OTHER side of that dynamic (as do some of his family); others close to him would prefer to avoid a telling/told dynamic altogether (as would the rest of his immediate family). #Lovember

Emile is almost constitutionally incapable of showing up in response to an invitation without a gift in hand. That's more normal in this culture, and also, he can afford it! But also he... struggles to believe that his own presence might ever be gift enough.
