Code:
NAME = pick(John, Jack, James, Timothy)
ACTION = pick(brushed, ran, pawed )
DESC = pick( pale, dark, thin, chubby )
PART = pick( thigh, breast, flat stomach, chin )
THOUGHT = pick( do away with, take, slap )
PLACE = pick( pantry, kitchen, bedroom, cellar )

print "As "  + NAME + ACTION + "his hand across her" +
      DESC + PART + "she thought she must" + 
      THOUGHT + "him in the" + PLACE
This sort of thing could be equally prolific with a little effort. You could then just sit back and listen to the accolades.

Yep, go for it!

I love how it's so easy to criticize successful people on the interwebz.

These people (regardless of speed of production) are obviously doing something right, creating books readers want to buy if they are making enough money to live on, particularly paying a mortgage. You don't even have a clue as to the quality which must be good enough to sell books. Mikey I"m wondering if you are a student, living in the dorms or with your parents?
