My schedule has been a little off these past few days, so the regular Chintz link round-up is a bit later than usual – apologies. However, I hope you’ll agree it’s worth the wait – this week I’ve been alerted to the David the Werewolf dildo (yes, you read that correctly), erotica for the not-to-modern male, and a new Maya Banks trilogy.

 

Werewolf beats all: Interview with the CEO of fantasy sex toy site Bad Dragon (NSFW)

Secretly wish you could have sex with an orc? Well prepare yourself. This article looks at Bad Dragon (NSFW), a U.S. company that creates sex toys based on sci-fi and fantasy characters. The editorial is great – especially the link to their digital edition flowchart to help you decide which sci-fi penis is for you – but the bit that really amused me? The interview with company founder and CEO, Varka, who insists on talking about himself in the third person. Oh, and in case you’re wondering, Bad Dragon’s most popular make-believe appendages include David the Werewolf, Natascha the Anthro Husky, and Bruiser the Fusion.

I have a husband who likes Lord of the Rings. I’m officially scared.

 

She shed her clothes. I shed my inhibitions… I knew then it would always be about sheds

If you haven’t been following Fifty Sheds of Grey (@50ShedsofGrey) on Twitter, where have you been?! Billed as ‘erotica for the not-to-modern male’, this parody account of E.L. James’s Fifty Shades of Grey has become so popular it’s been turned into a book. Shed porn abounds (pictures of grey garden sheds, in other words) and readers can treat themselves to the best of the Fifty Sheds tweets, my favourites to date being:

 

After that weekend in the shed, I never saw her again. She wasn’t looking for a relationship – she was just DIY-curious.

And:

The black leather didn’t worry me. Or the heavy breathing. But I must admit I was a bit concerned when she said, ‘Luke, I am your father.’

 

Berkley Inks Huge Deal for Maya Banks Romance Trilogy

Well done to Maya Banks, who has managed to secure a seven-figure deal for a new erotic trilogy featuring three men who ‘dominate both in the boardroom and in the bedroom’.

I’ve been reading Ms Banks’s work for a while now – in fact I’d count her book Sweet Persuasion as one of my favourites in the D/s erotic romance genre – so this is quite exciting news. (Damon Roche, I wish you were real!)

So, just how long will I have to wait to get my hands on the new series? Well, it looks like the first book will be released in early 2013.
