Author Jillian Boyd is on the hunt for hot historical
erotica – stories set in those heady days of the Roaring Twenties. Whether it’s
the glamour of the flapper, the spirit of Gatsby or the whisky-soaked excesses
of the speakeasies, I want you to make the Twenties sizzle and spark with
red-hot lust.
The stories needn’t all be about flappers and gangsters
(although I’d love to have some in the collection) – let your imagination fly!
But don’t forget the storyline – and the sizzling sex, of course. I want
characters that fly off the page and spark off each other. I want fun, frolics
and occasional frivolity.
As far as the ending goes, a Happy-Ever-After is good, but I
have no problems with a Happy-For-Now.
The No-No's: No scat, bestiality, under age sex, golden
showers, rape or forced sex or incest of any kind and necrophilia.
