Get "Lightning in a Bottle, Passion in the Stars" for just $1 this month
A sexy, spooky tale for Spooky Season ...
This month’s Dollar Deal is “Lightning in a Bottle, Passion in the Stars,” a time-bending, mind-warping tale of passion and obsession. You can get it for just 99 cents on all the usual e-book platforms.
Or, for just $1 month, you can subscribe to my Amuse Bouche level on SubscribeStar, which gets you my story collection “The Eroticist at Play” plus a different book from my catalog each month.
I wrote a bit about the background of this story, and my adventure last year in serial publication across multiple platforms, in this Eroticist’s Notebook entry. You should consider listening to Kate Bush’s “Cloudbusting” before reading. (Actually, you should consider listening to Kate Bush at any time, really — you just can’t go wrong with her songs, especially if you’re going into your autumnal mode.)
In 1957, Jeremy, a physics student, and Paul, a young architect in training, begin experimenting with the mysterious properties of orgone, an energy field emitted by, and enhancing, sexual passion. Over the next three decades, their experiments grow bolder, and more dangerous.
In 2023, Clarissa, an architect who works alongside her husband to transform unique locations into vacation destinations, explores the possibilities of the abandoned Benedict Institute, founded by the eccentric Jeremy Benedict and designed by his friend and, it was rumored, lover, Paul Jordan. Clarissa had an experiment with passion herself that has left her marriage in a rocky condition and her desires ignited and thwarted.
These two strands come together with mysterious, powerful, and passionate possibilities.
