I hope my bisexual readers are having a fantastic Thursday! I write in the lesbian romance genre, but my books don’t just feature lesbians. They feature women who love women however they identify: lesbian, bi, queer and pan characters. Someone recently said that instead of it being called lesfic, it should really be called sapphfic. Why this hasn’t happened still blows my mind! Plus, my books aren’t just read by lesbians – they’re read by readers across the LGBTQ+ spectrum and beyond, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Let’s just say if you love reading about women who love women, you’re in the right place. Happy Thursday! #bisexual #lgbtq #queer ... See MoreSee Less

Do you like reading sex in books?Sex in books is divisive. Some readers will skip the pages, while others love a good romp. For me, so long as there's fantastic sexual tension and energy leaping from the pages, that's good enough for me. While I do love a good sex scene that speaks to the story, if they go on too long or twist their bodies into Olympic gymnast positions, I raise an eyebrow. But so long as it's all about the emotion and draws me deeper into the story, count me in! Where do you stand on sex scenes in books? #sex #sexscenes #LesbianSex #lesbiansexscenes ...

Every writer wants to be different and rip up the rulebook. But if you write in genre fiction, the rules are there for a reason: because readers expect them and want them. If you fail to follow them, readers will shrug and say things like "it was a great story, but something wasn't quite right", and they won't come back. The solution? Follow the rules, but put your own twist on them. Build obstacles/characters/side plots around them. You can still be special, but in a good way. Every genre has its own set of essential scenes to include in every story, but if you're writing lesbian romance, here are the top six to put on the page. Otherwise, your reader will feel cheated, and they will be sad. You don't want to be responsible for sadness, do you? Click over to my blog to find out the six scenes every lesbian romance novel needs.www.clarelydon.co.uk/2021/04/top-tips-lesbian-romance-key-scenes/#more-9578#tuesdaytips #queer #writingtips #lesbianfiction ...
