#loveletter 7
7 Like lyrics we’ve heard a million times, we find the parts we know by heart, and sing out loud, our bodies and voices increasing in volume. We revel in these moments. And when we hit the parts we’re unsure of, we mumble our way through, hum, or make up the words, until we circle our way back to the chorus. We’ve yet to stop singing, because this is our song.

#loveletter 6
When we open, we are at our most vulnerable and most secure, the tentacles of our souls entwined and wriggling like ravenous mouths…insatiable. Lately, though, we have been disconnected. We are slippery, falling between fingers that struggle to grip, frustrated by the effort but never willing to stop. During these darker seasons, Love and Will hold us together, saving us.

#loveletter 5
5 Our love is not easy, curled up like cats on quiet cushions. It is a tempest, a growling sky of swirling clouds that leaves its signature in strewn debris. But after our storms, worn waves sleep. The ebb and flow of our blended inhales and exhales leaves our souls splayed.

#loveletter 4
4 We protect our ruin as a precious dig, so much of worth to be found under layers of dirt…broken shards to fashion a mosaic of unspoilable memories. This is our beautiful mess…a gallery-worthy collection of love’s evidence.

#loveletter 3
3 Like doting parents at a child’s concert, we are simultaneously drawn to and pained by the flickering lack of tone and beat, the flaws and pauses, the moments of confusion.

#loveletter 2
2 Our rhythm is an unnameable hunger, unintentionally clumsy at times, silk-smooth at others: a lop-sided discordance of desire.

#EROBLOPOMO2021 Theme: #loveletter
#EROBLOPOMO begins tomorrow. So today is theme announcement day! I’m giving myself a building challenge this year – to write a love letter in 30 parts. I’ll start with 10 words on day one, then 20 on day two, 30 on day three… This is not only intended as baby steps to get me back into the writing game, but also as a challenge to pack every perfect word into each tiny, daily package. Sometimes, writing less is more, and it can definitely be more challenging. On the 1st of December, I’ll post the letter in it’s entirety. Tune in tomorrow for the first #loveletter post.

#EROBLOPOMO 2021
It’s that time again! Every year, NANOWRIMO (National Novel Writing Month) hangs over my head, making me, as a writer, feel like a bit of an unmotivated heel. So…last year, I came up with #EROBLOPOMO. (Yes, there is already a NABLOPOMO, but as a sex blogger, I always feel a bit uncomfortable coming to these vanilla writing parties. It’s like showing up in lingerie when everyone else is dressed in Puritan standard.) Since this is only the 2nd year, things are still just getting started. But, if you’d like to challenge yourself to writing a bit more in November, feel welcome and encouraged to join me. Head over to…

An end-of-month update
Well, I managed 21 posts this month. And though I didn’t answer all of my 30 Dirty Questions, I posted more this month than I normally do, so I’d still call #EROBLOPOMO a success. I plan to leave the 30 Dirty Questions up (linked in my projects), for future reference, so if you didn’t partake this month and would like to do them at another time, they will still be there. There is no reason you have to do them in one month and no particular set order, so use them as you please. The end of my month sort of got away from me. Our fridge went out, Thanksgiving…
