\"\"<\/a>Interesting that my first attempt at erotic fiction should appear in a collection titled Between the Sheets<\/em>. There isn\u2019t a sheet in sight in my short story and I deliberately made it non-porn and non-romantic. It\u2019s a sad tale about a future time when sex is almost obsolete, relegated to an impersonal mechanical or chemical process \u2013 hardly erotic!<\/p>\n

I wanted to produce a story that was stirring, thought-provoking but not sleazy.<\/p>\n

The result was Correction<\/em> which didn\u2019t neatly fit into the genres of science fiction, speculative fiction or erotica, so I\u2019m very pleased that David Vernon of Stringybark Stories<\/a> has selected it for inclusion in his downloadable \u2018editor\u2019s selection.\u2019<\/p>\n
