Hi Laurel,

You mean like RKB's Bedding Down? It's a collection of winter-themed erotica. My story in it is called "It's Not the Weather."

XXX,
Alison

That book rocked my socks hard. It's my favourite thus far.

Some Like It Hot reminded me a little of a situation with two guys when I was about 22. My best friend slept with both of then and then snitched on me.

I'm working on a review for Carnal Machines as well. I really enjoyed most of the stories, but absolutely hated one. Should I unleash my vitriol, or should I be more polite?

Why'd she do it? Out of virtue? Malice? A desire for revenge...?

Hi everyone! I haven't finished it yet, and I'm loving Playing with Fire. I enjoyed Kristina's story Where There's Smoke and the next story, Texas Hot, which is probably only 150 words.

We always had a love/hate/want what the other had kind of thing. Best of friends but she didn't like that I was getting more attention I guess, lol. We worked it out and quit talking to the guys

I absolutely hated "The Perfect Girl". (Sorry if you liked it.) For various reasons, it was the first story I read, and it almost made me give up on reading erotica at all.

Admittedly, I am a complete bibliophile and I have definite likes and dislikes. Though I usually don't respond that negatively to anything.

Probably... I've been getting deluged with spam on both my work account And the naked reader account this past week, so my response rate is down... I will be sorting through it all tonight and getting assignments out...


So to everybody: if you have sent a request and do not get an assignment by the morning... please feel free to yell at me!

If it's in Carnal Machines I haven't read it yet. It's been a while since I've read Playing With Fire, so I remember my general feelings on the book but I haven't had a chance to refresh my memory on it.

Ooooo. Hi Alison! I am making notes... I still have to plan for November and December. Although then we'll all be likely wishing for the fire theme again!

I love the Avatar - how appropriate!

Thanks so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed my story!

I love that Alison blends longer shorts with flash fiction in some of her anthologies. There's always time to read something hot.
