Contributor Bio:  Palmer, Christina When I was still in High School, one of my friends smuggled in a book she had found in her Mom's bedside drawer. It was Princess Daisy by Judith Krantz. As a group we giggled over the steamy sex scenes in that book, but I was more than amused, I was intrigued (amongst other things) and asked if I could borrow it. Well you know what? I never actually gave it back and I realize now, that was the beginning of my love affair with erotica. It wasn't long before I began writing my own erotic stories, all of which are still hiding away in a dusty briefcase in my wardrobe. Apart from an embarrassing discovery by my mother in those earlier days, my experience has been a positive one and I continued writing for my boyfriends and eventually my husband, all of whom loved my work. At my husbands encouragement I decided to publish one of his favorites "Taking Jenny" onto Kindle last year and 50,000 sales of my stories later, here I am. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope you continue to enjoy my stories... I have lots more to tell.
