Invisible Erotica July 15, 2002 - 10:08 a.m. Jane gave her readers an assignment. Write some erotica. Originally I was thinking, 'Well, I'm outta the loop on this one'. I haven't been able to write anything about my own life, let alone come up with a fictional story. And erotica? Pshaw!! No, I definitely wasn't going to participate in this one. Until I had an idea. A plot. I suppose true erotica, like porn, doesn't need a plot. But I have to have one when writing. And now that I had one, I decided 'What the hell, I'll give it a shot'. That, and she's going on strike until she gets some meaty stuff. Around 3am this morning, my fingers were flying across the keyboard. I filled up nearly a page in Word. And then I died. I still couldn't say what happened. As I went to save it, all my precious words just disappeared. Undo wouldn't bring them back either. Needless to say I got pissed, shut the puter down, and went to sleep. I don't know if I have the courage to try writing it again.
