Back inwhen I decided that maybe writing about sex was a legitimate career choice spoiler alert: it totally isI did the only thing I could think of. Some said they made a few pennies. Others said that for an hour of work, they made a few hundred dollars. I have several really good friends who write and publish erotica. They work with publishers on some projects and go it alone on. They love what they do, and the more steamy smut they write, the better they. But like any amount of writing, especially the length of a novella, takes time and effort. Writing erotica should be treated like the craft that it is. Put your best story forward, edit the hell out of it, care about the cover, and then market your little heart. First of all, people die from exposure. And second, the mortgage company has never accepted my offer of great exposure in lieu of payment. A bigger yes that there will be days when it feels like every sex toy, adult, or publishing company you talk to is one .
