Day30 – First erotic book you ever read
Hmmmm, does Are You There God, It’s Me Margaret? by Judy Blume count? It was probably the most adult book I had read at the time – it even talked about *gasp* menstruation! Still, not really erotic, is it? Probably been banned as often as some erotica.

Ultra pleased tonight. Contacted 1800GotJunk and they came along and removed the fridge, water softener, and freezer chest from my basement that have all been there since before I moved in. That freezer chest was HUGE and HEAVY and it took most of the 2 hours they were there to move. Originally they tried cutting it in two, but it first released loads of freon and then resisted any further attempts to split into two. So they wound up taking it up the stairs (tight fit). But the pair of them succeeded and now I’ve got a bit more room in my basement than before.
I’ve read a lot of smutty fanfic. Does that count?
Sure!
I really need to read Judy Blume again–I read all of her books when I was about 12 & I remember that one of them traumatized the hell out of me, so I need to go back & figure out what the deal was there. But her books can’t be the ONLY erotica you’ve ever read, can it? Given that I’m presently working on (~writing) my 8th & 9th porny stories, I find that difficult to believe. I think the first erotic book I read was Anaïs Nin’s Delta of Venus–something else I need to reread now to see what I make of it. Although Erica Jong’s Fear of Flying isn’t an erotic book per se–though there’s a lot of sex in it–I think she’s been a big influence on me in terms of writing frankly about sexual matters. When I wrote my first story over three years ago, I would stop & giggle after writing every sentence, more or less, but now I’m sooo much more relaxed & comfortable with writing in that genre…proving you CAN overcome a strict conservative upbringing! 😉
