dadioflex: In my own non-erotica-but-still-containing-sex work, not all the sex scenes are even that sexy; they are people in sexual situations. Sometimes they are uncomfortable, ranging from simply awkward to outright dangerous. The first novel in my series explores issues of consent, dominance (but not in the BDSM sense), class and other issues that sexual situations can directly speak to, just like any other situation. It's no different than violence--or a dinner party scene.
That said, I've got flat-out erotica out there, too, including stories set in my series' universes. Yes, just like the dog food that makes its own gravy, I write my own fan fiction. Why let the fic writers have all the fun, I say...
