Alive and Thinking in Cyberspace: Pam's take on just about everything

Category Archives: Carrie’s Story

A Confession. A Resolution. And a Rant.

First the confession. That I’ve gone a little gaga over a recent modest spike in Carrie’s Story‘s Kindle sales. Have I been getting a little 50 Shades of Grey action for my own smart-girl-meets-moody-older-guy BDSM, w/a Molly Weatherfield, and going amazingly strong for a small-press book first published in 1995? Maybe. But since checking out [...]

Fanfare and huzzahs! Great New Contest Prizes!

While my bald avatar mollyw languishes in Second Life, I’m back here to announce that not only will the winner of my current contest win a $25 gift card to Eden Fantasies — fantastic online purveyor of sex toys, sex books, sex everything – but that Eden Fantasies has upped the ante by adding a [...]

Molly and Me… a new contest soon

I was thrilled and flattered last April when an online discussion of my erotic novel Carrie’s Story (w/a Molly Weatherfield) attracted 345 posts. Not bad, I’d have to say, for a book that was first published in 1995 (and which I would never have dreamed would still be in its 16th printing as I write [...]

Once is Not Enough

I had a fantastic time delivering my “Imagining Sex” erotic romance writing workshop last week. Twice. First at a monthly Maryland Romance Writers meeting and then at New Jersey Romance Writers’ fantastic Put Your Heart in a Book Conference. They were great, smart audiences at both venues — if you’ve done any teaching, I’m sure [...]

O! (Getting Graphic)

Smart Bitch Sarah, on The Slightest Provocation’s forthcoming May mass-market cover: …shirt unbuttoned but still tucked in + mullet + O-face is TOTAL WIN. Way to go on achieving the romance trifecta!! Making it sound, though its curlicues of well-wrought irony, more-or-less like a good thing (I think), though I wasn’t entirely sure what “O-face” [...]

If you really want to hear about it…

…the first thing you’ll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don’t feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth. [...]

San Francisco Sunday

As Michael and I wandered through the Folsom Street Fair yesterday, I couldn’t help feeling a kind of rosy glow of community, thinking that perhaps by writing Carrie’s Story and Safe Word (as Molly Weatherfield) I had made a tiny contribution to the universe of good-humored kink and exhibitionism that gives rise to the fair. [...]

Little Boosts to the Ego — with Early Valentine’s Day Wishes

Though I have to confess to some astonished, delighted chortling over the fact that used copies of Carrie’s Story are selling (at least as I write) for as much as $193 at viaLibri.net (a URL for online used bookselling that brings together 20,000 vendors including ABEBooks and A Libris) — diehard Molly Weatherfield readers weathering [...]
