Stepping out of my comfort zone . . .

I'm going to try to write erotica. I'm nervous as heck about it, but that seems to be what publishers want, and I'm actually going to write erotica as the publishers claim they want it--heavier on the sex without sacrificing the love. I think it's possible. No, I don't have practical experience on the matter, but as another fellow writer has told me repeatedly--"I'm not from the 12th century but I still write about it." I can write about this, too. I hope it doesn't come out stupid, though, but I'm sure the twelve people who read my stories will let me know quite happily if the story is made of serious FAIL! lol
