I have to say, I rarely point at other people and say it’s their fault I am the way I am. True, they may have been a putz, but I’m responsible for how I let it affect me.
In this case, I’m making an exception.
I’m talking about what made me try my hand at the smuttiest of smut kind of writing. Yes, in this case, I blame Eden (though not because she was a putz, of course).
Until I met her, I’d never read anything dirty other than The Sleeping Beauty series. Now, what haven’t I read? Moreover, what haven’t I written?
It really was a series of unfortunate events. I started out writing comedy. Paranormal chick lit. There wasn’t even much in the way of sex. And then I started talking to Eden on the phone. Listening to her talk about her writing made me try my hand at it. She was the corrupting influence that lead to all manner of perversions on my part.
And don’t think Feisty and R.G. are blameless–they encourage me to greater levels of depravity.
It’s quite sad, actually. I’m doomed!
In any case, I had to get that off my chest and make sure you all know, when it doubt: It’s All Eden’s Fault.

by Deidre October 22nd, 2008 at 1:06 pmSee? It’s important to understand how our political system works. I’m helping people…yeah, that’s it!
by Crystal Jordan October 22nd, 2008 at 1:11 pmYes, blame someone else is always the best bet. So to carry on tradition…It’s Crystal’s fault.
I feel better now.
by Melissa Blue October 22nd, 2008 at 1:28 pmYeah, well until I met you and Lisa, I wrote sweet little romances with guardian angels.
by Jennifer McKenzie October 22nd, 2008 at 1:31 pmNow I write about Virtual Fantasy Rooms and dungeons.
I’m with Melissa.
It’s all Crystal’s fault!!!
You know, I’m starting to think maybe it’s really Feisty’s fault. I’m not sure why, I was already published when I met her…but it must somehow all come back to her.
by Crystal Jordan October 22nd, 2008 at 1:34 pmI would happily take the blame for corrupting you, Crys, but I’m afraid you already had the dirty girl gene before we met. The Sleeping Beauty series is one of the dirtiest things ever written. So let’s blame Anne Rice. :)
by Eden Bradley October 22nd, 2008 at 3:27 pmOkay, I can totally get on board with that. It’s Anne Rice’s fault!
by Crystal Jordan October 22nd, 2008 at 4:31 pmOkay, but…neither of us are responsible for that candle scene in Treasured. Just sayin’…
by Eden Bradley October 22nd, 2008 at 8:56 pmThat was the hero’s fault. I told him not to do it.
And there are several candle scenes in the Sleeping Beauty series, so on second thought, it really might be Anne’s fault…
by Crystal Jordan October 22nd, 2008 at 8:59 pmEden inspires all kinds of deviant behavior. It’s one of the things I love most about her.
by Feisty October 23rd, 2008 at 5:14 pmJust stopped by to see the site and the great pictures you guys did. Just wonderful.
