HELLO, EVERYONE! I’M Linda Mercury. If you are curious about my qualifications, I could tell you in detail but let’s just say, I know a little about love. ;)

Why another workshop about writing BDSM? Because the world needs your dreams, your thoughts, and your truths. The world needs us to be honest in our writing by painting the full panoply the human experience. All of us are curious about power dynamics, sensation, helplessness, and roleplaying and how they affect our characters’ lives. Writing leather sex gives both the author and the reader a safe place to explore these experiences.

My goal for this workshop is that you will be able to write kink enthusiastically, with a full, rich emotional life for your characters. Everything I’m about to talk about it to reduce your anxiety or stress so you write with greater joy and clarity. If at any time, if you feel overwhelmed or like these ideas are too much work, take a breath and remember that these ideas are to keep you from writing yourself into a corner or getting stuck.

A quick note before we get started. In this book, I use the terms BDSM, leather sex, kink, and love play interchangeably. What words you like to use in your writing are entirely up to you.

I would like to thank the intelligent, sexy people who helped me write and edit this book. I had many important conversations with these people.
