Story Ideas

As a writer, one of the things I’m often asked is where do I get my ideas for my stories. Now I admit it, I have a really quirky brain at times. The smallest thing will often make me dissolve into laughter. People look at me and wonder what I’m laughing at. Hey, like I said, I have this strange brain at times. And given I write erotic romance, my brain often seems focused on sex.


A few years back I was toying with an idea about a woman who, although she’d been married for 10 years, had never had an orgasm. Now her marriage is over, she wants to find out what she had been missing. I hung on to the idea but it didn’t go anywhere. So I tucked it in the back of my mind and promptly forgot about it. Until I walked into my friend’s home. There, sitting on the kitchen bench, is a little black box still in its plastic wrapper. A stud finder. Immediately, my old idea came back to me. The story formed in my mind and Stud Finders Incorporated was born. Such a simple idea but I had a ball writing this story



Wanted -- An Orgasm... and the chance to fulfill all her sexual fantasies.

Madison believes she's frigid. Her ex told her so and maybe it's true, because there's one thing she's never experienced. An orgasm! Now she wants it all. So when her mother rings Stud Finders Incorporated and hires a stud for her to practice on, why look a gift horse in the mouth?

Jake's ex-lover said he was boring, both in bed and out. So when sexy Madison asks him to teach her to have an orgasm, he jumps at the chance to prove his manhood. Even if it means hiding the fact that the purpose of Stud Finders Incorporated is to find the studs behind the wallboards of a building so the owner can safely hang his paintings.

Sometimes, I’ll read something in the newspaper or see something on TV and it will be enough to trigger a new story idea. My brain immediately starts asking the “what if?” questions and before I know it, a new story is born. As a result, I spent a goodly portion of my day (and night!) living out raunchy scenarios in my head. My hubby thinks of it as the fringe benefit of being married to a writer. lol


Whether reader or writer, what triggers your imagination and starts you on the path to concocting fantasy scenarios in your mind?
