Course Description:
Erotic romance and erotica are hot (pun intended) markets.
But what makes them hot? To capture a reader’s attention,
do you have to invent a brand new shape-shifting species for
your latest paranormal? Or add the hottest new sex toy in
that upcoming scene? Or add a racy sex scene every few pages?
Of course not. While any of the above can add originality
to your story, they do not by themselves make a story hot.
In fact, used incorrectly, they can turn readers off. So how
do you make your heroine’s typical day at the office
feel sexy? How do you make that ‘vanilla sex’ scene
sizzle? How do you make the mundane feel erotic?
