Publishers Weekly asked famous erotica author Zane for an essay on writing… “Why I Write.” Here’s an excerpt:
Erotica is a specialty, no matter what some might think. It takes more than sitting down at a computer and churning out detailed sex scenes. That may work for a few books, but it could never last. True erotica is a journey. It is a mixture of clearly defined characters, a story line that has significance and, lastly, sex. I write my sex scenes last in most of my books. I am more concerned about everything else. I do not write for money. I do not write for fame. I write for the personal gratification that I receive from knowing that I have touched someone, helped someone and made a difference in someone’s life. That emotion and knowledge is priceless.
She has more to say in the article at Publishers Weekly. I think it’s well worth a read!
