Alert Reader N. answered the call for any examples of What Not To Write with an email message that made my jaw drop. As part of a regular feature here at the Hot Pink Palace of Bitchery (where the drinks are free and the man titty shelters us from the harsh rays of the sun), we’re taking a look at descriptions, both sexual and non-sexual that yanked us out of the storyline.

It’s time for… Accidental Dong, Romance Style, with your hosts, Kay Hooper, Gena Showalter, and Kresley Cole! Well, technically they’re not the hosts, but they’ve got dong-ful books.

Writer Sailor Jim has reprinted his essay on describing the erection, from his 2002 book Naked Through the Snow and Other Bits of Silliness. Hark! Throbbing, turgid, rigid, engorged humor on the sultry rod of manflesh! Let us rejoice. Lately, I think I’ve read more uses of the word “cock” than any other euphemism, and have even bumped into “erection” more often than I expect. Um,not literally.
