My eyebrows and eye liner and lips have it, yes, it was terrifying, (and in case your wondering, very painful) and I looked into what salon I would have do it very carefully, making sure that the lady doing it had a valid license to do such work. It is very expensive, and believe me, when shopping for permanent makeup, you do not go ‘bargain hunting.’ But IMHO, it was worth every dime. I have not had to put on make up in over two years now. I can be as sick as a dog or just crawl out of bed and still look put together---it’s really cool, and when you think about how expensive make up itself is, I have saved a bundle in the long run. As for erotica, I only have three separate scenes (one in the beginning, and two closer to the end) in my book where my h/h have any kind of physical contact. I am more comfortable writing tension and the emotional part of the act rather than the detailed physical part. I would never even try to write over the two that I am at now, as a matter of fact, if it were not for Triskelion asking me to ‘heat it up a bit’ I don’t think Under A Viking Moon would have even hit a two on the heat scale. Thanks for the questions, Beth. Hi Beth, permanent makeup has a technical, scientific name that I could not spell to save my life, but the layman would call it a tattoo.

Tell me about it. I want some. Also, what do yout hubby and daughters think of you writing erotica? Do you get teased about it? What book are you working on now? Are you trying for a 5? Cheers, Beth Tami, what do you mean, permanent makeup? Tell me about it. I want some.

LOL, what books do you use for research, or magazines? I've found interesting stories in Cosmo about sexuality. Of course, Playboy does nothing for me, but the articles are pretty good.
