The Science of Stress, Orgasm and Creativity: How the Brain and the Vagina Conspire in Consciousness

This article by Maria Popova over on Brain Pickings discusses and summarizes ideas from a book I cannot reccommend highly enough – Vagina: A Biography by Naomi Wolf.

As a young twenty-something emerging feminist, her incisive and polemic The Beauty Myth informed and shaped my intellectual and academic life; articulated clearly so many things I had observed and felt. This book has less of a “whack’ for me as a long-term practitioner of Tantra – something Wolf is just discovering in this book – but it insightfully links and co-relates many aspects of female sexual health and its relationship to creativity, productivity, and general ‘aliveness’ in women. In short – it discovers and maps the vagina-brain connection. And explores what happens when trauma occurs in a way I have never encountered before.

I haven’t been bloogging much of late – life and inner life do not seem to be pulling me towards the keyboard to write articles to share here. One of those reasons is because I myself often notice a complex interconnected link between, energy, creativity, sexual energy and focus. When one or two of these feels ungrounded or is affected in some way negatively by stress, over time it begins to affect other aspects of my life. Writing (everything excepting my journal entries) is often the first aspect to be obviously impacted. And I wonder how many other women can relate to this complex synergy of cause-and-effect.

So – if you haven’t read this book yet – please check this out – then get yourself the book to read the ideas in their entirety. Men out there who want to better understand women, and in particular have partners who have suffered sexual abuse or trauma in their past – read this to better support,  love and understand your woman.

‘Under My Cape’ – Erotic Fiction by Adrea Kore via ERWA

Let me introduce you to one of the most creative, diverse and downright stimulating online erotica sites around – welcome to ERWA. Short for Erotica Readers and Writer’s Association, this hothouse of erotica authors and erotica appreciators has been going since 1996. They’re more than a little bit discerning there, which is perhaps why they call their erotica site a ‘Gallery’. Also, the stories enjoy a ‘season’ of publication, then are taken down and replaced by new works. Much like the cycle of exhibiitons in an art Gallery.

The Association also offers an online forum of story submission and critique amongst an amazingly talented and supportive group of writers; many writing in other genres as well, and from all levels of experience. This is where the stories are selected from for the ‘Gallery” by guest editors on the site.

I first stumbled across this site two years ago, just as i was starting to generate more erotic material, but had little idea what to do with it. So I submitted my first piece for critique, and that very same month the piece was selected for the Gallery, much to my surprise. I’ve found the camaraderie, humour, expertise, encouragement and dialogue there to be – well – invaluable. And addictive. ERWA has assisted me in developing my skills as a story-teller and a critiquer, and given me faith that my work was of a publishable standard right from my first splashes in the deep end of the erotica genre. Additionally, I’ve had the privilege to read some incredible stories, dialogue with other authors, and see work as it progressed through different stages, and this can really help one’s own writing.

I’m thrilled to have two stories and a poem in the first Gallery for 2015. I’ll be sharing the links here for you to read. The first is a wicked little piece called Under My Cape.

Please note this piece has explicit sexual content which may offend some readers. There are themes of BDSM, enforced exposure, restraint, public sex, and more. So don’t say I didn’t warn you… If however, you’re curious to read more – please click on the picture below to see what’s under my cape …

Enjoy my story? Take a moment to let me know – it really does make my day when someone takes the time to comment. You can do it below or send me a private email here.

Wishing everyone out there in the big wide Blogosphere a magical, luscious & creative start to 2015. May it be filled with fresh energy and fresh ideas …

Story of ‘O’: Writing the Orgasm in Erotica – 1

“His topography fits my geography. The wicked curve upwards kisses that place, that place which sends me into sensory whirlpools of delirious intensity, there on the underside of my navel.

the O in eroticaSure now that my movements are making the most of him, I prop my body up on several pillows, opening my legs so I can see myself reflected in the mirror at the foot of the bed… I guide him in and out, giving him more daringly to that hungry place inside me, building the intensity of sensations until each dive inwards is met with an outward rush of pleasure.”

(Excerpt – Salad Days © Adrea Kore 2013. 

Published in Little Raven II and A Storytelling of Ravens) 

Orgasms. As a beginning erotica writer, it’s inevitable that at some point you encounter this challenge. You have to describe characters having orgasms. Then as you write more stories, and inevitably more sex scenes, you have to find more ways of describing them – different tones and shades to suit the context, mood, character psychology, and perhaps even the sub-genre of your erotic scene. (Is it paranormal, sci-fi or BDSM erotica, for example?) Different genres may suggest different approaches to description, different language, and even a different emphasis of the experience.

As importantly, you try to write in ways that you hope will arouse the reader.

And all of this, whilst trying to side-step cliché, purple prose or implausibility. Any of these elements risk taking a reader out of the story, and can dampen the intended effect of the more explicit parts of your story. Continue reading →
