Sh!
Reading the good parts!

Remember when you were an adolescent, always skipping to the naughty parts in every book, a book you probably weren’t supposed to be reading in the first place. Actually, it was always easy to find the naughty parts because the books, any book any adolescent ever had hold of, would always just fall open to those bits from frequent perusing, if you get my meaning.
Imagine a whole book of nothing but naughty parts! Wow! Does it get any better?
That was pretty much the theme of Friday night at Sh! Women’s Store, where our amazing editor, Violet Blue, my sisters in erotica, Jacqueline Applebee and Scarlet French got to read nothing but the best bits from Cleis Books Best Women’s Erotica 2010, and Jaquie gave us a delicious taste of The Best of The Best Women’s Erotica 2, to be released in February. As you probably suspected, Women’s Best Erotica 2010 is a best bits only sort of read. The four of us, along with a very enthusiastic audience gathered in Sh! to drink pink fizz, eat cupcakes and be titillated by story. It was bliss!
Renee and Joanna and the lovely women at Sh! were hostesses extraordinaire, and I had to be practically shoved out the door at the end of the evening because it was such a great place to be. Sh! is definitely the place to find that perfect naughty gift for someone nice. (Personally I’d recommend a copy of WBE 2010 for starters.) I was occupied reading and drinking fizz Friday night, but I’ll be back with shopping list in hand.
Don’t be too disappointed if you missed it. Plans are already in the works for another reading of the best bits in March, with Best of the Best Women’s Erotica on the menu.
