While many of you know about the Bullwer-Lytton Award, a world famous literary contest for bad opening paragraphs, I wonder how many of us are aware that there is a similarly dubious tribute bestowed on authors by "Literary Review" entitled the Bad Sex in Fiction Award.
Whether you call this assemblage of evocative adjectives, sensuous adverbs, ornate and over-extravagantly exaggerated writing purple prose, bodice ripping, or any other number of epithets - a bad sex theme by any name remains the same.
Are you getting the idea?
The challenge, offered by myself and the nefarious chris2c4u (whose deliciously insistent poking and prodding drove us to share this idea), is to write a scene to be continued as a chain story which might be worthy of the aforementioned award.
So... in the meantime...
Take me! Take me now! I spend! I spend!!
And while I"m doing that, please feel free to jump in and well... Have fun.
