There is some cursing, but you won't find a single F bomb in the entire book. It CAN be done, folks. The closest to a sex scene is when Vickie invites Tall Chambers to dinner on Friday night and suggests he bring a toothbrush. He does, along with a change of clothes, and stays till Monday morning. That's all you get in my book, folks.Earl Staggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13349667172813175960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404036170106001374.post-91178166977980471422013-04-01T18:24:23.607-05:002013-04-01T18:24:23.607-05:00Just wanted to add this.

Sex ...I think we're all on the same page here. Sex and violence carry more impact when left to the imagination. Sadly, too many have been swallowed by electronic games and as a result lost that capability.Mark W.

A couple of book reviewers have called my humorous mysteries "old fashioned" in the style of Jane Marple and Jessica Fletcher, but that's the way they're going to continue. Fortuntely, some readers have thanked me for the lack of graphic sex and four letter words. They're probably older readers (and that's who I write for).<br />Jean Henry Meadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146960738692672013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404036170106001374.post-84238221114071042062013-04-01T11:36:23.660-05:002013-04-01T11:36:23.660-05:00Many may disagree, but I still believe the breakdo...Many may disagree, but I still believe the breakdown in public morality was a consequence of removing the Bible from our schools. Sure, there was sex talk back in my day, but it wasn't publicly flaunted and encouraged by blatant example. When the kids were no longer exposed to a moral compass, they lost their way in a hurry.Chester Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07155257451021065218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404036170106001374.post-74482083201909966312013-04-01T07:53:39.873-05:002013-04-01T07:53:39.873-05:00Bill, Earl, I'm with you both.

Earl, I forgot to mention that grannie/porn author uses two Barbie dolls with Ken so her variations are multiple, and yes, my wife and I were disgusted that Sunday morning television had stooped so low. I'll gladly give up erotic novel income in favor of facing the man in the mirror. Mark W.

I have friends who write for the erotic genre and they're careful, dedicated writers but I can't ever remember reading literate porn.Bill Kirtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07675643113010061969noreply@blogger.com
