Welcome to the 93rd
week of My Sexy Saturday.
This week’s theme is My Sexy
Love. The first thing we thought of with this theme was Hands of Love by Wall
of Voodoo. Or how about Corey Hart and Sunglasses at Night. Maybe a little of
Art of Noise and Moments in Love. Then there’s the Fine Young Cannibals and She
Drives Me Crazy or Chris Issac with Wicked Game. These are the things that help
drive writers to write. Music, songs and the people who sing them. And we aren’t
forgetting the now generation with songs like Your Love Is My Drug or Like Yesterday and the hundreds of others that
remind us each and every day why we write romance.
There is something special in
writing about love and how two people, sometimes more, can find how important
it is. It’s special to us as writers if we find a song or a series of songs
that epitomize that love story.
We can think of hundreds of
love stories that have been inspired by music. The characters they produce are
the type that live forever. For example, when doing some minor research for
this week’s theme, we were taken back in time when we first heard Wicked Game
and the thoughts that they brought to mind for stories and scenes within those
stories. It was an inspiring moment that a song from the 1980’s could still
inspire a sexy thought years later.
The books produced by these
inspirations are exciting books that you as a reader just can’t put down and
you as an author love writing. We love how you weave your tales to enchant us,
to entice us and to leave us with that ‘ah’ moment through the way characters
interact with words, situations and each other. Again, we leave the particulars
up to you since you do it so, so well. Remember, our sexiness can happen
anywhere, anytime, day or night. People
fall in love in many different ways. It could be
on a date, at a school dance, on a hike, with the boy or girl next door, just
anywhere two or sometimes more people or beings are drawn together because of
that feeling called love.
We all know that love happens
and we want to know all about those special moments where those entities
realize there is an emotional bond between one another through their words and
actions. It can happen on an average day, during
the night, in the middle of a zombie invasion or maybe a place where it’s hard
to tell the day from the night like in a submarine or deep in space. Adventures
one and all but the one thing we do know it’s going to be hot…hot…HOT! And all about love!
Give readers more to drool
over, sigh and love about our work as we share our special love stories with
them. Show readers that happily-ever-afters start with some fantastic moments,
be it soft and gentle or rough and fast. We love the good parts of the stories
where the characters are making love or about to be loved and even the morning
after. Forever. We love all the parts that show us the sexy characters we’ve
come to care about. Share each and every
moment with us this week! Basically, sexy me once! More if you can…we love it
all!
If your story has one or more
of these fabulous moments with some very sexy, hot characters in a love that’s
destined to last forever, please share them with us…share all those sexy
moments that you have between your characters even if your story doesn’t exactly fit the theme this week…remember
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 or 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!
