dee2 - hi ann
dee2 -

Ann K99 -
R C - Hi DEE
dee2 - hi cissy
dee2 - hi RC
Sara-Moderator - ah, so you just want to get to the banter part! makes sense to me!!
midnight_haven - how do you do santa and snowman?????????
Barbara Dunlop - You mean you think I don't like writing the bedroom scenes? I do. Talk about opportunities for banter! They're together, alone, and in each other's arms.
dee2 - hi sara ty
midnight_haven - hi dee
GoddessFawn - I LOve to see scenes where the man gets tied up and the woman has her way with him... gerri has timed out.

Barbara Dunlop - I've never tied up a man. But in The Mountie Steals a Wife, the hero felt compelled to demonstrate a knot to the heroine...
Ann K99 - to laugh // LOL with no space
Caffey - ?
Sara-Moderator - okay, so THAT you describe, Barbara??
Ann K99 - //cuffs
Barbara Dunlop - Before, during, after. There are loads of opportunties when characters emotional guard is down.
Sara-Moderator - a knot, Barbara??
Ann K99 -
O - oh a mountie
Sara-Moderator - he demonstrated it how, exactly?
Cissy - oh my...
Barbara Dunlop - Describe the knot? Not in any detail.
R C - Barbara, I find that same problem. but then again, its difficult to describe mulitple sexe scenes with the groaning and moaning without a lot of repetition
Ann K99 - //snowman
O - Your charcaters are multi talented then Barb
Barbara Dunlop - Sara, he tied her up to prove he could do it. It was really very sweet.
Sara-Moderator - so, is this "emotional guard" a guy in a red mountie coat or what?
Ann K99 - //frosty
dee2 - hi O threeofdiamonds114 has timed out.
Sara-Moderator - sweet, uh huh, right, Barbara
Mac -
shellebelle - a Mountie and a rope imagining that
O - //snowman
Barbara Dunlop - I think you can make the love scenes fresh and interesting if you focus on the two characters rather than on the physical description...
Sara-Moderator - O has the next question (midnight_haven, Caffey in line)
Barbara Dunlop - There I go again, getting away from the description
Ann K99 - chocolate
Ann K99 -
Barbara Dunlop - Yes. The Mountie does have a red coat. Though he's not wearing it at the time...
GoddessFawn - I wrote a scene with the man being handcuffed both his arms and legs were and the woman had her way with him
