Having No Sexy ~ @MySexySaturday #Saturday7 #MSSWeek40 #MySexySaturday


 

Welcome to the 40th week of My Sexy Saturday.

This week we seriously thought about not doing the blog. And no, it’s nothing anyone did but because of a personal family emergency. Then it got us to thinking…what happens when we’re having no sexy? When our characters are too tired, too ill or just not in the mood. We realized even though we talk about the sexy and doing the sexy and everything sexy, sometimes that just doesn’t enter the picture. Sometimes it is truly about the love between two people when the sexy fails them for some reason. One of the best songs ever to represent this stance has to be from the movie Notting Hill called When You Say Nothing At All.

So, this week, let’s make it all about being in love or thinking about love or just knowing love because honesty with the current events, we’re just not feeling the sexy. Thanks for your understanding!

Remember, every reader is different and therefore we write love scenes for every genre. Please share those scenes with us this week. From the first hot kiss, to the fulfillment of a dream, show us the wonders of making love to our significant other.

So, let’s give our readers even more droll about and sigh about and love about each of our stories. Let’s show our readers that happily-ever-afters start with that one special moment, be it soft and gentle or rough and fast. We love good parts of the stories where the characters are making love or about to be loved. Forever. Share each and every moment with this week!

If your story has one or more of these fabulous love scenes in it, please share them with us…if not…share those sexy moments that you do have between your characters. Every relationship is important!

Sexy can be anything such as romantic moments like walks on the beach, a home cooked meal or even in another galaxy. It could be two lovers here on Earth dreaming about the day where they go on a magical vacation to another planet. Or staying right here at one of those wonderful places we can find in our own world.

Readers want to see those characters, the ones who can’t get enough of each other as well as ones who are fighting their way back to being part of the world once again. These are the types of characters they can’t forget, the one they want to take home and keep forever. Readers love the kisses, the looks, the touch of each and every one of our characters.  

Sexy has nothing to do with looks or status or even wealth. It doesn’t demand perfection and it isn’t pretentious but it does make us want to read those books.

We know that everyone has their own idea of sexy and we all love sexy!
