OUT NOW!SOHO BY SPOTLIGHT by CHRISSIE BENTLEY In London in the 1960s, pornography was a man’s world.Stag movies and blue films were viewed by men, written by men, directed by men and filmed by men. If they hadn’t needed actresses to play a part on camera, they would probably have been made by men as well.And then a woman came along, and changed that world completely.This is her story.The mid-1960s were the golden age of truly underground erotic film making, the last grand flowering of the trade…See More

A sucker for sexy stories?

After six years as a “serious” erotic author – as opposed to someone who used to write for herself and then file them away in a box in the attic – I’ve grown wearily accustomed to the response I receive when somebody asks me what kind of books I write. Not from everybody, and certainly not from other writers… well, not many of them, anyway.But step into the real world, or even worse, the dating pool, and suddenly I’m not a writer; I’m not even a woman. I’m a one-stop agony aunt, who might…See More

OUT NOW!

SOHO BY SPOTLIGHT by CHRISSIE BENTLEY 

In London in the 1960s, pornography was a man’s world.

Stag movies and blue films were viewed by men, written by men, directed by men and filmed by men. If they hadn’t needed actresses to play a part on camera, they would probably have been made by men as well.



And then a woman came along, and changed that world completely.

This is her story.

The mid-1960s were the golden age of truly underground erotic…

Hi there -- just wanted to drop by your page and invite you personally (or at least virtually) to our first-ever She Writes Philadelphia meetup, celebrating our first-anniversary! We are so grateful to the event's organizer, Jessica Keenan Smith, for taking a risk and stepping up to host. I hope you will support her and bring yourself and other women who write (no need for them to be members) to the Philadelphia gathering. At the meetup writers will take part in the She Writes "Book Communion," where attendees arrive with one book, their own or another She Writers', new or gently used, and leave with another book as a meaningfully way to support one another's work. We will also be blowing out a candle and making a wish for our upcoming writing year -- along with She Writers gathering in 16 cities around the country. I hope you will be part of this historic (well, at least kind of cool) occasion, and RSVP now to Jessica here.

Hello Chrissie,
thanks for adding me. Your profile sounds very interesting. Maybe we can chat about erotica-writing at some time? I like what you suggest under "Services to other Writers".
It will have to wait though (sigh), because currently I am buried under writing-projects of a very different nature, like instructions on "How to write charming letters" ... :o)
I am also still recuperating from finally daring to pitch a short story to Black Lace, my fav imprint, only to have them close their doors a week later %-)
