To enter for leave a comment with the answer to the question at the end…
So with a new year I’ve decided to get a little more naughty…Is that even possible? Oh you know it is…In the last half of the year I’ve started to reveal more of my BDSM writing. It all started with flash fiction to introduce my readers to the genre since it is something they have not read from me. I wanted to do it gradually and waited till I was ready to expose this work to the world.
It has been a beautiful experience to slowly expose this side of my writing to the world. So far the feedback has inspired me and made me thrilled that readers are embracing this. I know that with the popularity of a certain series people have become more curious when it comes to erotica and BDSM.
Many people still don’t understand what BDSM is about and I hope they take the time to research it a little and get more informed.
I’ve been working on a new anthology collection full of BDSM flash fiction and BDSM/erotic poetry…I love to express myself with words..I don’t care if it is stories or music or poetry.
I’ve decided to write more erotic stories featuring BDSM content. I’ve got so many different ideas to share and not enough me to get it all done…
Here is an erotic/BDSM poem I wrote
Reflections by Savannah Chase
Copyright 2012
Darkness surrounds me
I am blinded
I am bound in place
His hands run over my skin
Fingers slowly embrace my neck
Push my head back
His breath brushes my flesh
He wants me to see
Who I truly am
Callused hands
Heavy breathing
He wants to love me
The way he sees me
Stripped bare
Broken and fragile
I want you to see
His words seep into me
The beauty within you
He frees my eyes to the light
Surrounded by mirrors
Nothing but reflections
Naked and unable to cover myself
Don’t you dare he commands me
I continue to struggle my hands free
No use
Look
Feel
See
Our eyes meet
Fire consumes him
He keeps composed
I see the beautiful you
You are not damaged
He turns my face towards him
I can’t deny my lover
Hunger feeds him
I must open my eyes
Find my own reflection
For now I’m lost to his touch
I wanted to ask you as a reader, are you into the BDSM genre? What is your opinion on the spike in popularity in the genre?
i like this genre. i have learned quite a bit since the trend went mainstream with 50 shades. its definitely sexy and i’m honestly surprised that i enjoy reading about it! thanks for the hop.

I like reading the BDSM genre if it’s written well…meaning it’s about the emotion and relationship between the people involved.

I love BDSM, but I think a lot of people are jumping into something that they know nothing about. That’s fine for books, but dangerous in real life.

Love the BDSM genre with the right touch, not too extreme. Want to check out more.

I love BDSM as a genre when it’s written well. I wish people would see past the most popular authors though (James, Day etc) and see that there are some real gems out there but that are more under the radar and dwarfed by the fascination with 50 and other similar novels. Cherise Sinclair is one of my all time fave authors in this genre because she creates a good story with the BDSM element in it. They are so good.
Happy New Year!

It’s really not my cup of tea but I’m glad to see it gaining more interest as a genre because it means a general upswing in erotica publishing. 🙂

I am new to the BDSM genre. I find many aspects of it extremely interesting. I have now read many books on the topic and find that my first ideas of the BDSM lifestyle were completely wrong. I like knowing that there can be an emotional and loving relationship involved. I must say that so far my favorite book is “Brie Learns the Art of Submission” but I am finding many more to add to my list. I have been with my husband for 20 years and we have four boys (ages 4-17) and we enjoy learning new things together.

I would have to say the spike is due to 50 shades going main stream so to say however it has always been there the SDSM genre though it was talked about in hushed tones… I find nothing wrong with it and enjoy the books and sometimes sdsm play in my own house but that is between me and my hubby. People need to understand it is not about it isn’t about degrading or hurting a person it is about giving another person enough trust and knowing they will take care of you and do what you enjoy safely.

I enjoy the emotional/ psychological components of bdsm. I love to read it and I’ve just discovered I can write it. My newest WIP has bdsm elements. It might be naughty but it sure is fun! 😉
[Reply]
I enjoy reading BDSM. I read them before the popularity spiked. I hope the popularity helps the authors who right it.
Happy New Year!

Yes, I’m into the BDSM genre. I think that the spike is due to 50 and that most people are just curious. I just wish that people would read better books than 50 because there are better authors and books out there.

Over the years I’ve read random books with light bits of BDSM in them but in the past year I’ve gotten more into reading more books set in the BDSM lifestyle. After reading excerpts of the 50 Shades book I had no desire to read them. I prefer books that are written by authors who know what they are writting about. Thanks for the giveaway!

I have read BDSM before the FSOG phenomenon. I think you either enjoy reading these books or you don’t. There are alot of mixed feelings on this subject & I think that if you were raised with an open mind & not that sex or your feelings for it are taboo, you enjoy & get pleasure out of reading this genre. Let’s just say, I’m not getting any complaints from my husband. What I enjoy & take from these books is the trust issues. It’s not about controlling the other, but getting them to use their senses & feel. Thanks for being part of this hop & your giveaway!

Yes, definitely…but I definitely have limits. There is a fine line between pleasure and pain and I like the BDSM books I read to ride that line.

Love the bdsm genre and love the spike somewhat! I am glad its more mainstream, but the amount of inaccuracy and improbability of what some people write is disappointing….I wish more authors would take the time to search out those of us in the lifestyle to verify some things are actually feasible 🙂
Happy new year

There are certain aspects of BDSM that I like. I like the lighter side of it such as role playing and light DOM/SUB relationship.

I love it! It’s one genre I simply can’t get enough of! Weirdly my fave sub genre is dubious consent, I’m just weird that way, I guess! 😉
I think the market is booming with BDSM at the moment because of the 50 shades of whatever, but I think it runs deeper than that though. There’s power in sex, always has been, always will be. Nothing new there. But there’s also something liberating in handing over control and taking your pleasure in just being submissive.
As a sex women have been liberated for some time now, we’re treated as equals (most of the time), we have high powered jobs and we’re not afraid of what we want and we still run a tighter ship at home than any man ever could (sorry boys, you know it’s true) but with all the pressure we and society puts on our shoulders we barely give ourselves the permission to just let go. I think BDSM is teaching us to liberate ourselves from the restraints of everyday life!
Whoa! That was intense! Great question! Love love loved the poem! Thanks so much for the giveaway!

i am but i prefer when the female is the dominant i think all romance books are starting to get more readers i’d like to hope its because people realize they shouldnt exclude books from there reading lists just because there romance or erotica because they still have substance and good storied in most cases anyway

I’m definitely into the lighter side of BDSM – the hardcore slavery stuff creeps me out. I think for the non-practicing public, whips & chains, pain & brutality defined the lifestyle. The Fifty Shades books made exploring it more socially acceptable.
I think the huge increase in BDSM book sales is, in large part, due to e-books & e-readers. Besides the ability to purchase and read anonymously, it’s brought indie authors and their wonderful offerings into the mainstream. I’ve read SO many great books that are only available in an electronic format. I can’t imagine what treasures I’d have missed out. You’ll have to pry my eReader out of my cold, dead hands – lol.
Well. That was long winded. Sorry about that.
Thanks for the great giveaway! I love discovering new authors!

While 50 Shades of Grey was not my personal cup of tea, I do really like that it’s made the genre more visible. Its popularity has generated a lot of buzz and introduced new readers. Yay for more books to read!

Thanks for doing the hop!! I really enjoy the BDSM genre. I prefer the dominance aspects not so much the slave relationships. I am more into spanking and light bondage. I have no interest in 24/7 slave stories.

i love BDSM based books, i just don’t like the idea that this genre is being more looked into because of Fifty Shades. That book was…. let’s leave it at that. There are so many great and amazing authors out there who embody BDSM perfectly, it’s an insult to have them compared to EL James’s trilogy. (imo. i know there’s lots of fans out there, but I’ve read better)

Love the poem! I’ve loved BDSM long before the recent trend. I finally broke down and read 50 Shades of Gray, which my mother thought was poorly written, and was sad that so many folks think this is what BDSM is all about! I did read a review where the author stated this was PRETEND and did NOT represent BDSM but seems like not too many folks heard that or listened;)

I don’t mind reading BDSM, but I have never done it in real life. I like the new interest because more authors are starting to write it. Or maybe it is just more acceptable.
