Story behind the Story Wednesday, Jayne, and I were having a rowdy conversation when someone (maybe Weds) lamented about no one ever writing about women being on their periods or cramps. And then somehow lip gloss came up and how hair sticks it to it so it’s just not worth the trouble, regardless of how…
Life on the island is never boring. How do I know? Well, this is my third visit and I’ve never had a dull moment here. Oh, and there’s that Hurricane. I know I haven’t been here for quite a while, but to be completely honest with you, my lovelies, I’ve been malfunctioning in the writing…
So, I’m not the only person in the world suffering from… well, whatever the fuck it is I’m suffering from. Some of my sisters are feeling the weird lows, the ones that keep them from putting words to screen. Let’s chat about when you just can’t finish writing. On one hand, I’m glad I’m not…
Welcome, I’m Mischa and I’ll be your program director today. Yeah, you’re stuck with me since I own the domain name and all. I know, I know… poor joke (boo hiss). Anyway, I wanted to talk about putting out an anthology and I thought well, I have a blog. Let’s do this. My erotic dirty-minded…
Oh, wow! It’s live and ready to get you feeling all hot and gooey! That’s right! Chemical [se]X 2: Just One More is on Amazon. What a labor of love! This anthology would not be here today if not for some truly amazing people. In the beginning it was just an idea, a hope, a…
Pushing through pain isn’t always the best option but sometimes there isn’t a choice. Straight talk – I do not understand how people suffering from chronic pain get through everyday life. Let me tell you… I feel pain but only when I overdo it and strain myself. I know chronic illness sufferers have to deal…
[Originally posted on Sisters in Smut} Let’s Talk About Writing Realistic Kinky Sex Hi, I’m Mischa Eliot and I write kinky stories about fictional characters who enjoy being bound in rope or cuffs, spanked, flogged, teased until they beg to come, and more. I’m here to help you create realistic characters for kinky fuckery with…
Yes, I said it again. And I’ll keep saying it. MUSE JUICE. I don’t know where the fuck it came from, but apparently my brain has latched on like a leech in a precarious area you can’t quite reach. If someone tells you they’re having a difficult time writing, believe them. Something happened and things…
Looking back over 2018 and heading into 2019 with some major interesting prospects (some I can’t share just yet, but hey, you know you enjoy being teased.) If you want to start with stats – and who doesn’t love stats? – my stats this year compared to 2017 sucked ass. How so? Looking back, this…
Writers take from the reality around them and turn it into words. Sometimes the words are real truthy things and other times they are fantastically fictional. Either way, sometimes it can be hard to get those words flowing. That’s when you can find something to inspire you. A word, an image, a phrase, a quote….
[Originally Posted on Sisters in Smut] Imagine you’re an erotic romance or erotica author. You’ve written stories that contain steamy smut and debauchery across the board. You’re sitting at a table with a stack of books waiting for you to sign for the fans lined up at the door of the bookstore. Or maybe you’re…
There are so many ways I can answer the question “Why I Write” so I thought I’d share a few. Because if I didn’t my mind would explode. I saw on Twitter the hashtag “Why I Write” trending, so here you go. There were a few years that the only thing I wrote were a…
[Originally posted on Sisters in Smut] Hell yeah – we need more clear consent when it comes to erotic stories, videos, and yes, even in everyday life. Are we ready for some Smutty Research? Today I’m here to tell you something most people don’t even realize. But first, let’s start with something everyone already knows….
What’s in a character name anyway? To some people, everything. To others, it’s just something to call the character and there’s no meaning whatsoever. One of the most controversial things I’ve ever researched happens to be about naming your characters. The name has to mean something! If your character is an evil villain you’ve got…
[Originally posted on Sisters in Smut] I went to my #SistersInSmut and said I felt the need to write a post but no ideas are forming. I didn’t mention that I’d started several posts only to hate them. But that’ll be between you and me. Let’s have some truth first. I love Love LOVE writing smutty goodness… however I…
Awhile back I tweeted out that I was going to #5SecondRule myself a novella and started writing a super hot story about a sexy lady and her man. Since then, I’ve written 6,765 words in the same story. It has been a few weeks since I started and I honestly thought I would be further along than I…
I’ve been attempting to sit down and do all the things for over a week now and I’m still getting things done, just not the things I need want to do. And the list has grown. Things on my list: I will tell you this though. Lately, my laundry has been done. There are still…
Leaving the house yesterday to go shopping and more was a huge boost I needed. Today I’m struggling, but decided not going to the park on such a gorgeous day would be stupid. So here I am, at the park. Last Wednesday I decided to do some digital cleaning and backing up. I backed up…
I’m looking through my OneDrive with a face of dread. Old documents litter it. I’m going to start out with the words every writer, including myself, need to hear. It’s okay. It’s alright that you accidentally abandoned that story because something so amazing popped into your head that you had to stop everything you were…
[Originally posted on Sisters in Smut} For Oleander and I anyway – the lovely Dr. J. gets to be in paradise every single day – accept when Mother Nature decides to remind us puny humans who is really in charge. There are so many people, authors and non-authors, erotic authors and non-erotic authors that are…
