Erotic Short Stories for Women Written by Men

Editor & Curator
Rayna Russell
An annual anthology of erotic short fiction — a new volume every year since 2022.
Rayna Russell curates. Each year she assembles a collection of explicit short fiction from a rotating cast of contributors, chosen for range rather than sameness: different narrators, different appetites, different rooms. The annual has run without a gap since 2022. Between volumes, she edits standalone collections built around a single premise.
The Annual
One volume a year since 2022. Each is complete in itself and they can be read in any order.
