I’ve had a few comments lately about the fact that my
characters don’t use condoms, and I just wanted to address this quickly. Of course, you should ALWAYS use protection
when sleeping with someone new, especially if it is a random encounter in a
club setting. My books are fantasy
sex. While I describe the passionate
interactions and submissives’ responses as accurately to my own life
experiences as possible, I want to impress upon readers that this particular
aspect of my books is NOT realistic. In
my mind, my characters are all on birth control (something that I sometimes
address) and are either all regularly tested for STDs, or - in an even more
fantastical world - STDs don’t exist.
Wouldn’t that be nice?
Okay, so hopefully that’s that cleared up. In fact, I might start putting this
disclaimer in my books just to make sure to get out the message!
Love to you all! And
remember: Safety is sexy!
