Which would be one thing if I wrote, like, Roald Dahl style fiction. Or Janet Evanovich style fiction.
(Incidentally, there’s a caning scene in Dahl’s book Boy that I read when I was young. And re-read. And re-read.)
So, what do readers assume about authors of erotic fiction?
This particular person is an intelligent human being, capable of separating fiction from reality. But yet, considering I’m an author who is able to dream up a punishment involving an inflatable butt plug, a giant dildo, a penis gag, and contract law…
And considering I write this blog…
I worry.
But not too much. A little bit of worrying is fun. 
Back to the assumptions, though. There are loads of assumptions readers can make about writers. Loads. Some will be true and others false.
Do I see myself in some of my characters? Yup. When I’m writing, do I imagine being inside the scene? Absolutely (and it’s fucked up, weird, and fun; I totally recommend trying this if you haven’t). Sometimes I’m a fly on the wall and other times I’m a character. Both scenarios make for an interesting experience.
I guess I don’t really care what assumptions are made about me. With people I end up meeting and potentially fucking, the assumptions will get sorted out naturally. And for readers who envision a kink-crazy sex-obsessed Sadey Quinn… well, they would be correct. However far they want to take that is up to them.
Besides, any of you reading this blog regularly are, in your own ways, kink-crazy and sex-obsessed, too. I like you.

Kink-crazy and sex-obsessed? Okay, fine- I admit it:)
I did always suspect there was something a little off (in a good way) about Roald Dahl…
Boy is an autobiographical account of his early years… it’s a good read.
He went to boarding school.
Since he’s reading some of your work, we know that he’s got good taste…sex obsessed, okay maybe a tiny, little, minute bit
!
Tiny? Puh-leaze.
Lol, I’ll just say that today’s a good day to try something primal…I’ll let you know how it goes
haha, please do!

I do this too and I agree it is an interesting experience!!
Hi Trip, and yeah, it’s a different way to explore certain fantasies or scenarios… I love writing sex scenes.
greetings from another kink-crazy and sex-obsessed woman
Boy must be quite a change from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or James and the Giant Peach. I must read it, thanks for the recommendation!
Ha! It’s his autobiography of early childhood–not sexy at all. Just intrigued me. He attended boarding school.
Imagine if, in the throes of passion, you start to recognize what is happening to you as a scene from one of your books, that your lover is literally taking a page from you. That would be wild.
Wildly awesome.
Sometimes I get exes asking if I’ve written about them, and it’s just so uncomfortable. Mostly because our sexual experience wasn’t blog-worthy but I’m not about to say that thought out loud. Next time I’ll follow your example and tell them to stick to my fiction.
Kink-crazy. Check.
Sex obsessed. Check.
I like you too. Check.
I hug you! Check!
