Register now for our “BDSM for Romance Writers”  Workshop with Cecilia Tan scheduled for Wednesday, April 29th at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT. This workshop is FREE to Passionate Ink members and $45 for non-members (the same as Passionate Ink’s annual dues; join today!). The presentation will also be recorded in case you cannot attend the live session. BDSM is more than just a collection of toys or a list of kinks, it’s a whole world of intense relationship dynamics. In this workshop, RT award winning author Cecilia Tan will cover key elements of BDSM and kink that can spice up a novel, as well as myths and stereotypes to avoid. We’ll leave plenty of time for Q&A, as well.

Cecilia Tan has been called “simply one of the most important writers, editors, and innovators in contemporary American erotic literature” by Susie Bright, and “science fiction’s premiere pornographer” by Walter Jon Williams. She has been a longtime activist and organizer in the bi and BDSM communities and is a winner of the RT (Romantic Times) Lifetime Achievement Award. She holds a Masters in Professional Writing and Publishing and founded Circlet Press, Inc., for whom she edited over 100 anthologies of fiction. Her own books include the ground-breaking erotic sf/fantasy short story collections Black Feathers (HarperCollins) and White Flames (Running Press), and the Magic University series (Riverdale Avenue Books). Her short stories have appeared in Ms. Magazine, Asimov’s Science Fiction, Absolute Magnitude, Strange Horizons, and tons of other places. She was inducted into the Saints & Sinners LGBT Writers Hall of Fame in 2015.
