For those of you who regularly submit stories to Literotica, and have gotten beyond the problems of grammar and syntax and want some guidance for improving your writing skills, there's a little book I'd like to recommend. It's called "Fiction Writer's Handbook," written by Hallie and Whit Burnett. The authors were the editors of a publication back in the 20th century to which many aspiring writers submitted short stories. In some ways, it was similar to what Literotica is today.
There is a lot of good practical advice in the book, the best of which is to read the works of the best writers in Literary history, and it gives an extensive list of such writers from Ernest Hemingway to J. D. Salinger.
Also, on a personal note, I'd really like to see posted at Literotica a recommended reading list of the best writers of Erotic Literature.
