What makes a book sexy?

I’m not talking about erotica per se, but what is the difference between a book you eagerly devour and a book you slum your way through?

While there are individual exceptions, the most objective difference between a good story and a downright terrible one is simple—it all comes down to the writing. It’s either good writing, and we can forgive the technical flaws a little more easily, or it’s bad writing, and bad writing is just bad.

Good writing is more than just good writing. Good writing is sexy.

If you’re a fiction writer looking to improve your writing skills, this is the perfect, provocative audiobook to encourage you to get down to business and write your story.

Inside Good Writing Is Like Good Sex, you will find:

  • A titillating perspective on the writing process
  • The secret to why your story is special, and how you can make it sexier
  • Tips on romancing your readers
  • How to write irresistible characters
  • Basic writing and story concepts with advanced insights

And all in a non-gratuitous fashion with a lot of innuendos.

As a very Conservative, wife and musician/ artist, this book is incredible and really helps comb through the basics of how the beauty of sex is a pattern to reflect in good writing organization.

The advice given in this book is good writing advice, however it is very basic. It is good to be reminded of the basics, but I was hoping there would be some hints or tips for elevating your writing.
If you are a beginner writer, learning about structure, character, plot, grammar, etc., this book is a good place to start.
If you are already a published writer, there is little here about refining or honing your work.
Faith Moore did a great job of narrating.
