Eclectically Carnal (Eclectic Writings Book 1)

5/5 ( ratings)

Eclectically Carnal is a collection of short stories of mixed genres with steamy romance scenes. From a 1950s love story to a post-apocalyptic tale of survival, the anthology has hot and yummy fun for mature audiences.

It was born at the writer’s retreat in July 2013 sponsored by Julian Kindred of the Gulf Coast Federation of Writers. Five authors spent four days immersed in the writing muse at a beautiful lake house in Huntsville, Texas. The activities provided were designed to push our skills as authors to new levels, and they sure were
successful! We came away from the retreat energized and with a collection of short stories that were just begging to be published.

And that’s where Inklings Publishing came in. Chantell Renee and Fern Brady set out to start their own small press company with the goal of
launching anthologies whose proceeds could be reinvested in workshops and retreats so that more authors could benefit as we had. The Eclectic
Writings Series is a product of a publishing house established by authors for authors. The bulk of the profits from our sales will be used to sponsor learning opportunities at minimal or no cost to the author participants. Let’s face it, authors mostly fall under the ‘starving artists’ category. Inklings Publishing will help enrich authors by providing
readers great literature. It’s a win-win for all.

The theme of our first retreat ended up, by sheer happenstance, to be erotic writing. The stories in this volume of our Eclectic Writings Series all contain steamy love scenes or other sensuous content. It is definitely intended for a mature audience!

We at Inklings Publishing hope you enjoy these stories. By purchasing this book you are helping support local artists and small business. Please consider purchasing our second volume -- Eclectically Criminal -- to be released in February 2014.
