Keeping it real

I like to research everything . So that my stories are not only up to date but the reader can see the cartridges flipping to the right of the Simi automatic, things like that. But not over kill with colors lengths of gowns and what kind of flowered embroidery is on the neckline. If it is low cut or looks like a school teacher, the avid reader gets the drift. However, when it come to the bedroom…. Hey we all know good sex, (well we should) and the imagination can handle the details. Keeps your characters above reproach, unlike politicians...lol. Some stories require a little erotic flair but keep it to a minimum. So that your reader can fantasize a little in their own scenes. Twists and turns are great and unexpected stuff, is what keeps them turning the pages.
