There was a song back in the day...yup that long, long,
loooooong ago day that asked Alfie, a character in a movie what it was all
about. The song chimed words like
sorting out, giving, kindness, cruelty, and of course, love. There is one line that hits like a gale the
sole leaf left standing on the autumn tree, Until
you find the love you've missed you're nothing...
A: (Looking over Zi's
shoulder as he types) Who's Alfie?
Z: Some dude from the
movies when we were very young.
A: Doesn't ring a
ding dong.
Z: We have Ding
Dings?
A: (She ignores,
knowing she had better, actual éclairs, hidden well) Just wondering where you are going with this.
Z: Where else, love
and sex.
A: (Brow furors, sees
herself in a mirror and immediately thinks Botox! Then remembers people saying it could hurt
and promptly considers heavy makeup!)
Huh?
Z: Read on.
Sex has become such a casual romp throughout the media
world. It is just a step away from a
handshake or a hug. The mood hits and
bingo-bango characters do the bingo-bango.
Is that art truly reflecting life or life reflecting art? Many writers, including ourselves, when we
are Vixen Bright and Zachary Zane the quirky erotica novelists, we write about worlds
of imagination, where instant attraction leads to instant sex even if it is
sometimes just in the characters' dreams.
Although we believe most people consider loving a person
elevates passionate sex into something more intimate and rewarding, has sex on
its own become a recreational activity?
The expression, friends with benefits, has been bandied about like a
ping-pong ball. Is this a good
thing? Is this a bad thing? Is it simply what it is? We are not settling on an opinion here, just
wondering. What is it all about?
We have written books with the sweetest romance, to the
sizzling hissss-off-the-e-book steam to downright burn baby burn. We enjoyed creating every scene always with
the reader in mind, hoping we have given them an experience they'll enjoy and
remember. However, in the end, the hero
and heroine always fall in love. I
guess, in that sense, we are old-fashioned, we totally buy into romance, we
still like to believe in the forever after.
We'd like to believe in the fantasy rather than the reality that can
sometimes be cruel.
A: Whoa, get out the boots,
this is getting deep-crapola serious.
Z:
Errr...maybe...maybe not...just wondering.
A: Hmmm, and we're
wondering what the readers think. Do you
have an opinion on this, let us know. Write
to writingteamcw @ yahoo.com (no spaces) with Blog in the subject line and
we'll send you a free e-book, state your preference, romance or erotica.
We'd love to hear from anyone interested in what we do. Anyone who writes us at writingteamcw@yahoo.com (Write - Blog Dawn - in subject line) and leaves an s-mail address, we will send you a gift and add you to any future mailings.
