TweetChat with The Secret Submissive — Erotic Writing
Article originally published at https://www.tickle.life.
The Secret Submissive is a British Indian author of honest & immersive BDSM erotica. She is a best known for writing A Taste of Submission — a 5-star one-handed-reads collection.
She takes inspiration from my real-life experiences and desires, exploring the thrills and plights of young women, as they explore the daunting yet alluring world of BDSM. With this in mind, she is passionate about communicating the importance of trust, equality, and consent within a relationship, and I am a strong advocate for the eradication of abuse under the guise of BDSM.
Q1. What’s the difference between erotica and romance?
For me, romance is about the journey between two people and contains a love story, whereas erotica explores sexual connections. There are plenty of overlaps but erotica centres around sexual relations and they don’t always have to involve love!
Lots of my stories involve couples who share a healthy lust for one another, and strong sexual chemistry, but are not necessarily in love. I think it’s quite nice to portray that sex can be enjoyed in this way… safely, of course! Who agrees?
