This workshop will explore writing about love, lust, sex and desire. We'll discuss romantic tension, conflict, tropes, moving the story forward through desire, the necessity of consent, and respectful sexytimes. Guided by erotic romance author Tamara Lush, students will read and discuss a variety of sensual works.
