Sex In Words - POSTPONED!

It seems I attempted to rush everyone out of the silly season before they were ready! Due to low RSVP numbers we have decided to postpone the 21 January installment of Sex In Words.

If you were planning to attend and are disappointed by this outcome just make sure to RSVP TO DYMOCKS for our next Sex In Words. We want to make this a strong and successful ongoing event!

As always, feel free to email me, kyokochurch@hotmail.com, with any questions.

Till next time!

Sex In Words - Tiffany Reisz and Open Mic!

Happy New Year! Welcome back to Sex In Words. 

We had a month off of our normal quarterly schedule, seeing as the next Sex In Words should have fallen on 24 December and, as kinky and sex positive as even I am, I think we can all agree there are other priorities at that time of year! But now it's 2014 and I am raring to get back to slinging sexy stories. Shall we?

Friends, I am completely thrilled and stoked to tell you that our next overseas guest author coming to us via Skype is none other than Ms Tiffany Reisz!!! Tiffany's Original Sinners series has been satisfying readers looking for something more hard hitting (ha, pardon the pun) and sophisticated than, ahem, some other books out there. I read her first book, The Siren, last year and can tell you these are characters you can really sink your teeth into (oh, I'm just full of puns today.) So come out and hear what Tiffany has to say in an exclusive to Sex In Words at Dymocks interview!

But that's not all the excitement. Because I've decided to do something a little different this time around. I am inviting YOU to participate! That's right.
Have you joined us before? Did you like what you heard? Did you wonder if you could stand in front of a crowd and read a sexy story? Do you write sexy stories yourself? Well now is your chance! This is like open mic night for erotica. Come with a great story from your favourite erotica author or with something original! Excerpts should be about two to five minutes in length. Step outside of your comfort zone and wow us with your reading flair!

Questions? Comments? You know you can always email me: kyokochurch (at) hotmail (dot) com. But whatever you do, don't forget to RSVP. Here are the deets:

When:     21 January 2014 @ 7pm
Where:    Dymocks Adelaide on Rundle Street
Who:       18 and up only please!
Cost:       FREE. 
RSVP:    adelaide.customers@dymocks.com.au

Cheers all!

Sex In Words - the BDSM edition

Hello all!

Well, the submissions are in, decisions have been made, and we are well underway for the next Sex In Words, hosted by Dymocks Adelaide.

I am very excited to be bringing you the details of this month's event. We are pushing the boundaries even further this time, going with a BDSM theme, promising you a sexy, thrilling, fun filled night!

First, our author line up. From Melbourne, Victoria, newbie author Tamsin Baker will be joining us! Tamsin's steamy M/M short caught my eye (we'll go with eye) and I had to give her a spot so you could experience it also. But you are in for a special treat. Not only will you hear Tamsin's scorching hot words of male on male kinky fun, you'll hear them read by the supremely talented Vince Fusco. Vince recently brought life to a naughty story at my Made for Hire book launch and he gamely agreed to come back and entertain us again.   

And all the way from London, UK via Skype, the sexy slinger of smut, Kay Jaybee will grace us with her virtual presence! Kay and I have gotten to know each other through social media as we both publish with Xcite Books and Sweetmeats Press. Kay is widely published in the UK and US including with Cleis Press, Black Lace, Mammoth, Penguin, Seal, Austin & Macauley and AllRomance. This year Kay was nominated by the UK's leading adult industry magazine, the ETO, for Best Author, a category shared with none other than a certain Ms James. I am totally stoked to have Kay join us.

And then of course... there's little ol' me, Kyoko Church. :)

But the fun doesn't end there. Not only will there be all of this erotica fun, we will also have special presentations by sexy purveyor of adult products, no 96! We'll introduce a product with each story, in the way a sommelier might do a wine pairing for each course of a meal, only kinky.  

Sound interesting? Of course it does! Here are the deets:

When: Tuesday, September 24th @ 7pm
Where: Dymocks Adelaide, Rundle Mall
Who: Content will be extremely graphic. This event is restricted to those 18 and over.
Cost: FREE

Please RSVP to Dymocks at adelaide(dot)customers(at)dymocks(dot)com(dot)au

Tell all your friends! Looking forward to seeing you there!

Sex In Words II

Hello authors!

I am excited to let you know that I am currently accepting submissions for the next Sex In Words event at Dymocks Adelaide in Rundle Mall! Please send your subs to me at kyokochurch (at) hotmail (dot) com by August 31, 2013.

If you are unfamiliar with this new event, you can read about it on this blog or on Dymocks' blog.


We had the inaugural evening in June. Two lovely and talented authors, Angela Castle and Kate Belle, bravely and generously agreed to come out from Victoria to participate. Champagne was drunk. Chocolates were nibbled. Naughty words were spoken... unashamedly and with gusto! It was a super fun evening. Oh, and I should probably add... books were sold and signed! But don't take my word for it being a great time. Here is a write up.

The next one is tentatively set for September 24th and will have a BDSM theme. That's right! Send me your best D/s fiction. Make me blush! 

Readings should be between five and ten minutes in length. Again I will be choosing two authors to participate with me. 

If you are interested and can be in Adelaide at that time, again, please send me the piece you'd like to read to kyokochurch (at) hotmail (dot) com by August 31, 2013.
 
Questions? Feel free to email and ask or comment here.

Cheers all!

Exciting update!!

Hello everyone!

I am so proud and thrilled to tell you about our line up for the very first Sex In Words event this June 25, 2013! Visiting us from sunny Victoria, we will have two very different but very successful authors.

Angela Castle is an award winning author of sexy paranormal, and science fiction erotic romance. She has been tantalizing readers with her drool-worthy macho alpha aliens and big cat shifters for the past few years.

Kate Belle is an accomplished, multi-published author of dark and sensual erotic fiction. Her first full length novel, The Yearning, was published in April 2013 by Simon & Schuster to rave reviews.

To have two such talented authors come on board to read their work for our inaugural event bodes well for the future of Sex In Words. I hope you are excited as I am to come out, have a glass of wine, and listen to these ladies, and of course me, Kyoko Church, read tantalizing, sexy fiction aloud.

Click here to visit the Sex In Words Facebook page and let us know you'll attend.

Imagine



Imagine a cool winter evening out with friends. You gather at Dymocks book store after hours. It's warm inside and the comforting smell of new books embraces you. You hold a glass of wine in your hand and a twinkle in your eye as you prepare for your imagination to be provoked, your creative energy sparked, your brain stimulated. For a night of sexy fun!

Welcome... to Sex In Words.

What is Sex In Words?
 
Hosted by erotica author Kyoko Church, Sex In Words is a fun and exciting new event which will showcase three established or emerging authors to an audience by having the author read a short story or an excerpt from his or her work aloud.

The event will be held at Dymocks book store in Rundle Mall, Adelaide, Australia.

When will it be held?

The inaugural event will be Tuesday, June 25, 2013 @ 7 p.m.


Who can attend?

As the content will be explicit and sexual in nature, this event is restricted to people 18 years and older. People easily offended by such depictions may wish to pass... unless you enjoy being offended, in which case come out and be scandalized!


Who can participate? 

Authors from any genre may submit work for consideration to be included in the event. Emerging and established authors alike will be considered. We are looking for high quality writing with the central theme of sex.
