LOS ANGELES — Sexual wellness brand Dame has partnered with 11 erotica authors for a limited-edition book, titled “Toy Stories.”
The anthology features erotic and humorous stories that double as product reviews; its contributing writers include Cathryn Fox, Kayleigh Malcolm, Nikki Sloane, Willow Winters, Zoe York, Alexandria House, Cecilia Tan, J.C. Hannigan, Marie Gray, Christopher Sexton and Iman Hariri-Kia. In addition to the limited-edition print version, the book is available online on Dame’s website.
“Dame was partially built on the pleasure gap amongst women, which is why we love to drive home that we are made by women, for women,” said Dame CEO Alexandra Fine. “By partnering with these sensual and erotic writers, we're engaging our community and smut readers through a format they already are familiar with and love. We hope ‘Toy Stories’ inspires people, especially women, to feel more comfortable discussing sex and sexuality openly and shedding shame around pleasure. At the very least, we're giving people a vivid, graphic, and sensual understanding of how our toys can help transform their fantasies into reality.”
Added Tan, “I can truthfully say this was one of the most pleasurable writing experiences I've ever had. They really encouraged me to be creative, and the toys really inspired my fantasies. It's not every day that you get asked to explore your own intimacy and share all the candid details so beautifully. Sharing my experience to help others access their joy is my mission, and Dame is perfect for that — you might even say 'a perfect fit.'”
