The Naked Reader Book Club Convenes Aug. 10

JAMESBURG, N.J.—Get ready to release your inner erotic muse as EdenFantasys.com and SexisMagazine.com host The Naked Reader Book Club Meeting from 7-11 p.m. EST Tuesday, Aug. 10, on the EdenFantasys Community Forum.

Moderated by acclaimed erotica author/editress, Kristina Wright, Tuesday’s discussion will focus on featured selection, Red Hot Erotica, edited by Alison Tyler, and will open the door to exploring the secret garden of intimate scenarios you’d most like to see brought to life.

Haven’t read the book yet? Don’t worry. At the Naked Reader Book Club, all you need is curiosity, a love for literature, and the willingness to enjoy talking with likeminded others about everything from what inspires your fantasies to what kind of wine goes best with brownies.

In August, The Naked Reader turns its focus to writing your own erotica. Recently, Sexis contributor Jeff Schult sat down with some of the most talented writers and editors in the field to find out how they got their start—and how you can, too. In his two-part feature, “Erotica 101,”  the experts answer aspiring authors’ most FAQ: How do I get started? What are the common mistakes new authors make? Can I really get published?

The second Naked Reader Book Club meeting for the month takes place Aug. 24 and will feature titillating travel tales Do Not Disturb—Hotel Sex Stories and The Mile High Club—Plane Sex Stories both edited by prolific writer/editor Rachel Kramer Bussel.

Venerated erotica publisher Cleis Press, EdenFantasys.com, and SexIs Magazine co-pilot this ongoing online book club for inquiring minds who love to read about all things sexual—from the politics of pornography to the erotically evocative boundaries of desire.

The Naked Reader Book Club features articles on SexIs Magazine, discussion groups on the community forum and Twitterotica, a weekly erotic micro-blogging contest on Twitter and Facebook.
