I haven't sent either of those stories to the eXtasy Books editors, so I can still add the
tattoo. This sort of thing is more than
just description. Details like the
tattoo allow the writer different ways to delve into the characters. Here's how I used Jess's tattoo in Cassandra:
I
twist to see my ass in the mirror. Firm and rosy, and not showing a bruise.
Jess's butt tattoo makes her backside irresistible. Maybe I should get one.
Let
Paul decide. The thought goes through my head like a spear. I hold the sink to
keep from falling. I strain to see an image of his face. It's as if hes' turned
his back on my memory. His elusiveness makes me angry. Fine. I'll follow my
phone's advice. Lick the cunts you're with.
One of the problems writing a series such as my Fair Warrior Chronicles is in keeping
track of how the individual characters look and act. Each of the Fair Warrior stories is written from a
different point of view. The main character is meeting many of the characters
from the earlier story for the first time.
Everything is new to that person, and needs to be described from their
point of view. The characters grow as
their relationships change. I don't know if the tattoo on Jess's ass will touch
the thoughts of any characters in the stories I haven't written. Hopefully I
won't forget it again.
