'Every word of a work of gay erotica is a spear for the eyes or groin or gut or heart of straight society. Make every word as sharp as you can."

Lavender Blue Online

How to Write and Sell Gay Men's Erotica

by Lars Eighner

The online edition of Lavender Blue: How to Write and Sell Gay Men's Erotica also known as Elements of Arousal

This is the development version of Lavender Blue. While it is sparsely populated you may wish to consult the legacy version (which is called Elements of Arousal) for pointers on the art of writing. However parts of the legacy version are very badly dated and should not be relied upon for information about working electronically, tax regulations, or legal aspects of the writing business. The version you are looking at now will be developed in parallel with Lavender Green which is the expurgated version for those who prefer to avoid the explicitly erotic examples and exercises.
