Selling Sex in a Recession: Erotica

I'm just about back up and running after a tough week at the homestead, thank goodness. I came back to interesting news on the industry front. Check out this article from Publishers Weekly. If you're a writer or indeed a reader of erotic fiction, this will interest you. The market for erotica is levelling off, as suspected, but it is still solid.

The article also highlights paranormal, fantasy and unusual historicals with great quotes from Susan Swinwood, amongst others. Susan is my editor at Harlequin Spice. Since those are the genres I have been working in for my longer length books, (as well as several shorts) I'm hoping it bodes well. Fingers crossed, ay! On that note, I must get to work on the current project. I lost nearly a week, yikes.

Hope you're all having a great week.
