The Kilgore Trout Erotic Authors Page is a link and commentary page for websites by, and about, authors of fiction based on sexual themes (whether "erotica", "pornography", or literary fiction that is sexually explicit for non-erotic purposes). Its main intention is to defend this fictional form, particularly by giving an insight into the varied reasons why serious writers, including many well-known ones, choose to work in this medium. There's nothing much here you won't find in a good public library or mainstream bookshop in enlightened parts of the world. But if you're under-age or easily offended, I advise giving these links a miss! If you choose to follow them, it's of your own free will, so I don't want to hear any moans if you encounter something you don't like.
Kilgore Trout, incidentally, is the sad hero of Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions, a frustrated SF writer reduced to using his work to pad out the space between pictures in pornographic books. It's not strictly applicable here; but I like the name, and Trout's angst - if not his solution - will be recognisable to all writers.
