A rebellious anthology of porn stories about sex and the modern femme: no-holds-barred queer sex tales that reinvent lesbian erotica in ways that are transgressive and empowering.

Unabashedly raunchy, these stories prove that femme porn can be sexy and smart at the same time.Includes stories by Nalo Hopkinson (author of "The Salt Roads "and co-editor of "So Long Been Dreaming"), Anna Camilleri (author of "I Am a Red Dress "and editor of "Red Light"), Rachel Kramer Bussel, Daphne Gottlieb, Ducky Doolittle, Zoe Whittall, and many more.Amber Dawn is a writer and poetry editor of "PRISM international "magazine.

Synopsis:

A hot anthology of transgressive sexy fiction on lesbian femmes. A rebellious collection of no-holds-barred queer sex tales that reinvent lesbian erotica in ways that are transgressive and empowering. Good clean lesbian smut is difficult to come by. Most modern lesbian erotica is overwhelmingly PC and trimmed almost beyond belief by authorial self-censorship. So Amber Dawn and Trish Kelly have pulled together a collection of unabashedly raunchy offerings in the hope that they might be able to redress the balance a little, proving that femme porn can be sexy and smart at the same time. Starting off where most lesbian anthologies end, these are not your average lace-and-feathers stories. They are blunt and hard-hitting and they challenge traditional notions of how gender roles should play when it comes to getting off. "With a Rough Tongue" includes contributions from: Nalo Hopkinson; Anna Camilleri; Rachel Kramer Bussel; R.P. Chow; Daphne Gottleib; Ducky Doolittle; Suki Lee; May Lui; and M.V. Smith.
