If you could go back in time 10 years and tell your younger self something, what would it be?
Stop worrying about the way you look. It’s a waste of your time and energy.

Lusty Literati Reading Series
I’m starting up a monthly erotic reading series in Austin! We’ll meet on the second Tuesday of every month with the kickoff event on September 14th, at 8 p.m., at the United States Art Authority. Check out our blog for more details.
And now, I’m pleased to announce the readers for our first event:
Liz Belile
Liz Belile created the popular “Gynomite: Fearless, Feminist Porn” reading series while living in Los Angeles in 1994, which led to a CD anthology and documentary film. She ended up back home in Texas in 1997, where the series continued to gather accolades and led to her “Breaking the Cherry” porn writing and performance workshop for women, which she has taught since 1999. Belile edited the “Gynomite” anthology in 2000 and took a handful of feminist pornographers on the road for book tour around the country. She got married then had a baby in 2007, and has entered a new level of understanding of the erotic.
Reesa Brown
Reesa Brown is a writer of fantasy, science fiction, queer-themed stories, horror, occasional erotica, and whatever else she can think up. She lives just north of Austin, TX with her quirky family and small menagerie, and can be most easily found on the internet at http://reesabrown.com.
Buio Davinci
I’m a tech yuppie with pretentions of horniness, and have been a member in unsure standing of the Voluptuaries for about three years. I recently quite my cubefarm career of ten years, and will be earning
part of my income through erotic writing, photography, and theater. I’m polyamorous and currently involved with about 5 different lovers local and distant, and that’s likely to be a focus of my work.
C. C. Major
I’ve been writing since I was 11, when puberty turned my world upside down and I discovered how fruitless pining was useless unless it gave birth to a work of art. A diary was my only audience for years until blogging became popular, and I was intrigued with stories about kink. I’ve written mainly fiction, inspired by my dreams or whatever emotion or question was pinging at my heart and head; I’ve done a couple of opinion pieces, a few poems, and erotica, into which I like to mix comedy.
Paige Roberts
Paige E. Roberts has published a variety of sexy stories in the US and UK on the fringes of reality and beyond: fantasy, science fiction, superhero, vampire, and shape-shifter, with D/s, SM, GLBT, BDSM, and other alphabet soup elements. She lives in Round Rock with her husband and two kids and is active in the local kink community, co-founder of the Voyagers group.
“Bare Throat, Naked Hunger,” her anthology of erotic vampire stories was recently re-released with a new cover, and is available in e-book or print from www.midnightshowcase.com , Amazon, or Fictionwise. Her sci fi interrogation scene story, “Caught,” is in the new “Best Erotic Fantasy and Science Fiction” anthology from Circlet Press.
Gwen Way
Gwen Way began her erotic writing career in 2006, when she took Liz Belie’s “Breaking the Cherry” erotic writing course. Creative with movement as well as words, Gwen also performs as a principal dancer with the Body Positive Dance Company (www.bodypositivedance.org). She recently completed her bachelor’s degree in forensic psychology, and currently makes her home in Cedar Park.
