Erorom in the wilds of bloglandia

Instead of links from the list to your right, today I've got a bunch of erotic romance themed links culled from a few minutes with blogsearch.google.com. Enjoy.

Yes, mom. I write romance. Over at The Novelty Girls, Crystal Jordan discusses the issue involved in announcing to the world that not only do you write "those novels" but you write the "dirty" kind as well.

For those who voted "hell yes" in the recent Romantic Times poll on Man/Man romances, there's http://www.manloveromance.com "new monthly newsletter for thirty (plus) of the hottest authors of male/male erotica and romances worldwide."

Our authors include: Evangeline Anderson, Kayelle Allen, Lena Austin, Mardi Ballou, Laura Baumbach, Ally Blue, James Buchanan, Kirby Crow, Kay Derwydd, Vincent Diamond, Leigh Ellwood, Erastes, Renee George, Fiona Glass, Sedonia Guillone, Nathan James, Timothy Kelley, Jourdan Lane, JL Langley, Marguerite, William Maltese, Renee Manley, D.J.Manly, Sean Michael, Willa Okati, S.A.Payne, CB Potts, Luisa Prieto, Nigel Puerasch, M.L.Rhodes, Kira Stone, Julia Talbot with the talents of graphics artist Deana Jamroz.

Mmmmm, manlove. Good times.

And over at Phaze, we've got a Robin Slick's call for submissions for an erotic romance anthology, "39 and Holding...Him - Stories of Sex Over 40". They're looking for 5-15k sized stories starring heroines aged 40 and over. You've got some time. Submissions are due June 1, 2007.

Insert Banging Here - Do people actually write like that? "Insert banging here" and get back to the plot? Disturbing thought. Then again, I have read more than one "romantica" book lately (both print and ebook) that read like that.

And one from our link list, a thoughtful post, as usual, from "Teach Me Tonight" on variety of different preferences in romance, particularly regarding what's erotic.
