AMATORY INK
http://www.amatory-ink.co.uk
Novels : 30,000 to 40,000 words.
Novellas : 20,000 to 25,000 words.
Seeking submissions suitable for all categories, but also particularly keen to promote the GREEN category. I am particularly looking for Novellas and Novels at this time.

All stories should be plot driven and not just a series of sex scenes with tenuous links. Plots should be imaginative and not afraid to stretch established, or perceived boundaries, or to infringe on other genres such as Sci-Fi, Mythology, Fantasy, Historical, Westerns, Crime or anything else. Excessive crudity of act or language should be avoided.

Submissions including Underage Sex, Bestiality, Incest, Excessive Violence, will not be considered, although non-consensual sex will be considered if in context.

GREEN category.
'Risque romance' with hot, steamy imaginative love lives between hetero, gay or lesbian characters. This category should not stray into the world of BDSM, etc, unless extremely mild. Language should reflect the broad range of readers and overuse of crude, offensive language will result in re-classification.

BLUE category.
Original, imaginative, plot driven hetero, gay, lesbian characters including D/s, BDSM, bondage, etc. All fetishes are enthusiastically welcomed, especially those the imagination has yet to discover.

RED category.
This is the 'anything goes' hardcore classification where the further the imagination stretches the boundaries of credibility the better. Triple XXX rated writing for all lovers of extreme sex. The only constraints are the legal ones.

Extasy Books
http://www.extasybooks.com
We are accepting submissions in all the sub-genres of erotica: sensual romance, BDSM, G/L/B and any and all combinations thereof. We do NOT accept works that include sexual abuse of minors under the age of 18 in any form, bestiality, non-consensual sex or BDSM that results in actual physical damage. We will also reject works where individuals are subjected to strangulation or suffocation as part of the sex act, whether self-inflicted or otherwise. Other than that, anything goes.

We need:

Royalty Payments: 40% of eXtasy Books' net profits over and above initial expenditures

We look for solid plots, well-developed settings and characters that are fully three-dimensional. We want originality and professional-level storytelling. History should be well-researched and totally fictional worlds in fantasy and science fiction must be visualized clearly. Get your facts straight.

What's more, make each sex scene different. Nothing loses a reader's interest faster than having characters do the same thing over and over with only minor variations. Nor, contrary to popular belief, need all sex scenes end in a climax. Interruptions can lead to anticipation, and in the case of erotica waiting can be half the fun.

Finally, we expect all submissions to be professionally prepared and as free of mechanical errors in punctuation, spelling and grammar as possible.
Please read full guidelines before submitting.
