What is literotica?
It's a mashup up of literature and erotica, darling! You've seen it done before, of course. Remember when Seth Grahame-Smith ventured on to the scene with his Pride and Prejudice and Zombies? Well, it's like that--only with a bunch of naked people doing all kinds of things they didn't do in the original story...that we know of. (Wink, wink)
I 'm a big fan of William Shakespeare. However, I've always been a bit disappointed by the chicks in his tales. Maybe he had a limited range when it came to personal experience with women--you know how those actors can be--but I feel frustrated when it comes to the character development of a few of his female leads.
I decided to have a little fun with the Bard. Now mind you, I'm not actually retelling his story as Seth Grahame-Smith does. My books are more prequels or sequels than anything else. They refer to incidents or upcoming events in Shakespeare's tales, but with very sexy twist.
Viola! That is literotica!
And the title of my series? Naughty Shakespeare.
For a sneak peak, feel free to jump over to my website and browse what I have going on: Esmae Browder Website
I would give you a sample now, but I'm afraid Mary Ann would have my head! After all, this is a site intended for all readers and writers.
Have your own favorite kind of literary mashup? By all means, leave me a comment!
Ciao!
Nice job, Esmae! Thank you for keeping it clean!
