This was well put.<br /><br />While I was suitably UNimpressed with the first third of Ms. James's trilogy, my hat is also off to her for having thrown open a door that's been hanging on rusty hinges since...Sappho? Well, no, not really. Since Sappho, there has been a whole slew of very competent writers of erotica. Perhaps the reading world will now begin to read and appreciate them.<br /><br />RussellRussell Bittnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14010148382580630121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977235956385710789.post-12161606493377619442012-04-13T06:08:00.455-07:002012-04-13T06:08:00.455-07:00Elaine,

Why? I thought the characters were weak and not well drawn, the writing (and yes I know the author is a PhD) was very 'thin' - I especially didn't like Ana - to me she read like the stereotypical Harlequin heroine of the 1980's. I've read the first three of Summer's journey and loved them. Why? Well written, main character every woman can connect with, funny, and each word/sentence/page = evocative writing.Elaine Racohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11605882073602590329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977235956385710789.post-73853891459569891762012-04-12T17:26:19.104-07:002012-04-12T17:26:19.104-07:00I'm not even tempted to read it.

I was very intrigued by the way you created the scenes and the use of words. <br /><br />I have read some work by others and there had been some that dissapointed me. I'm into reading some BDSM that has a feeling sensuality and something erotic at the height of the story, but I guess it's how it's written that matter. <br /><br />Great article and I love your books!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
