Biography
Hi. I'm Joan Elizabeth Lloyd and welcome. Let me tell you a bit about myself. This is as of August, 2005.
Personal stuff: I was born in 1941 - yes, as of this writing I'm almost 64. I have a wonderful partner of twenty years named Ed (no, we're not married - for tax reasons) two wonderful daughters, two sons-in-law and three grandchildren, Sarah, 11 and Adam, 10 and Luke who, as of this writing, is 16 months. And yes, that's Ed in the picture.
Professional stuff: I wrote my first book, "Nice Couples Do," in 1990, because I wanted to share my ideas about sexual communication and sexual freedom. Those ideas? First, that erotica can be used to lessen the risks of sexual communication. Second, that anything two consenting adults want to do behind closed doors is none of anyone's business. Period. And I do mean anything. Anal sex, oral sex, D/S, bondage, spanking, erotic massage. Anything. And third, that sex is, and should always be, fun.
Erotica for sexual communication? If you want to share a secret desire with your partner, slip a bookmark in a story, article or letter about your desire and give the writing to him or her. You'll be saying something wonderful: that you want to share a secret desire with your one and only. You don't want to find someone new; rather you want to play together. How delicious.
What have I written since? Click over to Read about my Books to find out about all of them, non-fiction, short stories and erotic novels. There have been lots and lots.
Beside writing, what else have I done in my life? I taught 7th and 8th grade for twelve years and designed and programmed advanced computer systems for the commodities industry for five years after that. I volunteer a lot of my time with my local ambulance corps, play a pretty good game of bridge, do aerobics and needlework of all kinds (I donate much of what I make to a wonderful organization called Project Linus that gives hand made afghans to critically ill children) and watch sports and dumb stuff on TV. Yes, you may have gathered, I'm a devoted couch potato.
I hope you enjoy visiting me, sharing my secrets for creative sex, your ideas for delicious encounters, and stories and experiences of others like you. I'll answer any question you have, listen to any problem and try to help, and share my experiences and stories with you. I'd also enjoy reading your stories and ideas and I'll post some, with the author's permission, of course. If you write to me, I guarantee anonymity, should you desire.
