Question: Aimee, let me congratulate you on the publication of Good Pussy Bad Pussy. I haven’t read an erotic novel in years and I was lucky to read yours. Tell us a little about yourself.
Answer: I wanted to be beautiful and then I realized beauty is in the eye of the beholder and then I wanted to be good and then I realized goodness was in the eye of the beholder. When I realized this I decided to please me instead since I found out that pleasing others is a hopeless task! And writing “Good Pussy Bad Pussy – Rachel’s Tale” was one of the ways in which I pleased myself.
I also wrote “Good Pussy Bad Pussy” because I wanted to explore and write about a woman who allowed herself to go beyond what is normally acceptable for married women and who discovered and experienced amazing orgasmic release in ways which both shocked and surprised her. Plus I wanted to write about a woman who wasn’t so hung up as most women are today with the ownership of a partner. So even if my heroine Rachel is often confused, insecure and conflicted, she is also more free and open then most women are today – and I wanted to see where this would take her. Especially when you think about how limited and locked down in terms of our sexuality most people in couple relationships are today. Which makes it very difficult for us to find the ecstatic, orgasmic release we are all yearning for…
Question: Did you start out writing erotica?
Answer: I’ve written many books – both fiction and non-fiction.
Question: There is a lot of explicit sex in Good Pussy Bad Pussy. Do your friends and family know that you write XXX-rated fiction? And if they do, what is their reaction?
Answer: It’s really interesting to notice how most people frame the work we’re doing. They call it “erotica” or “porn” or “xxx-rated fiction” and well I didn’t think of any of these things when I was writing “Good Pussy Bad Pussy”. Isn’t that interesting? I didn’t have any of these labels in my head. I just wrote a book about a woman exploring her sexuality, feeling that our sexuality is just a normal part of our lives. So I didn’t put it in a special category. And when you think about it, not only is sex completely normal, sex and our sexuality is probably the strongest human drive of all. So as far as I’m concerned, the real question is – how come we separate sex like we do from the rest of our lives? And why are there so many taboos around something that is so wonderful, joyful, amazing and fun as sex is? As I say in my “Good Pussy Bad Pussy” books (yes I just finished “Good Pussy Bad Pussy book 2”): Nothing satisfies like sex. Nothing completes like sex. Nothing releases like sex. Nothing can compete with sex.
As for my family. My parents are dead and so is my ex-husband, so I figure they don’t have a problem with my book since they left their physical bodies behind when they crossed over to the other side! And without physical bodies, I doubt if sex is an “issue” for them anymore! As for my 3 sons – well one of them designed the cover of the book and the other 2… well that’s their problem!
Question: Your novel is about a lot more than just explicit sex. It’s a great story about a woman on a journey of self discovery. Tell us a little about Rachel, your protagonist.
Answer: Yes my heroine, Rachel, is just as confused and “fucked up” as the rest of us are – maybe the only difference is she actually does the stuff that many of us are just thinking about doing in our heads! So she actually lets herself go and it surprises and shocks her. And not only that, she then gets to experience the many unexpected consequences of her choices and what that leads to…
Question: Do you watch porn? And if you do, what kind of porn do you like to watch?
Answer: I’ve never watched what you call “porn”. Don’t even really know what it is. But I love sex. I love thinking about it, reading about it, writing about it, and enjoying it…
Question: What advice can you offer to other women who want to break into the field of erotica.
Answer: Again I wouldn’t call it specifically erotica. I would just say – be yourself – express yourself freely and if sex is a part of the story you want to tell – well then go for it! We can only change the world by being the change we want to see. So sexual freedom and enjoying our sexuality can only happen one person at a time…

Interview on Sex-in-Words blogspot
Jon Pressick talks to A. Aimee about Good Pussy Bad Pussy
What Do You Do With A Good Pussy Bad Pussy?
We never really now where our life is going to lead us, do we? Sometimes we are in complete control, sometimes another guiding, driving force compels us into situations. Sometimes that force is sex.
I caught up with author A. Aimee to discuss these themes in her novel Good Pussy Bad Pussy.
What was the inspiration for Good Pussy Bad Pussy?
I wanted to write about orgasm as a portal to ecstasy and the death of the ego. I wanted to write about how great sex is a portal into the flow state where we experience timeless awareness and the ecstatic feeling of being fully present in this now moment. I wanted to write about orgasm as the ultimate surrender which leads to the amazing blissfulness which each of us experience when we are finally, finally able to let go completely. And then I wanted to add to this an exploration of the conundrum that arises if we have reached this blissful state of complete surrender in and through situations (and/or with people) that we don’t particularly like or find acceptable. In other words, what happens when the body experiences one thing while the mind is screaming something else? What happens then? Where does this leave us and what does it do to us? And how can we live with this both on a personal and social level?
In other words, as far as I can see…we all have this huge, powerful urge and energy in us which is the sex drive. And it is always seeking expression. And then this urge, this energy then gets blocked or pinched off or twisted because of the massive social programming we all receive that is telling us from day one what is OK sexually and what is not. And even though today there are more and more people who are freer sexually than ever before in the history of humanity, the reality is that most people are still so limited in their sexual expression and in their ability to experience sex and orgasm as a portal to the divine.
So I wanted to write about a woman who allowed herself to go beyond what is normally acceptable for married women and who discovered and experienced amazing orgasmic release in ways which both shocked and surprised her. In other words, a story about a woman who discovered that her body could respond in one way even if her mind was screaming something else. Hence the title – Good Pussy Bad Pussy.
I also wanted to write about a woman who wasn’t so hung up as most women are today in terms of being jealous and possessive. I wanted to write about a woman who wasn’t concerned with the ownership of a partner, a woman who was free and open even if she was confused and insecure. I wanted to see where this would take her and what would happen to her…. Especially because it seems to me that so many of the present generation of couples in their 30s (who are children of parents from the 1960s) have reverted back to a much more limited and conventional lifestyle in terms of couple relationships and sexuality than many of their own p
I also wanted to write about a woman who wasn’t so hung up as most women are today in terms of being jealous and possessive. I wanted to write about a woman who wasn’t concerned with the ownership of a partner, a woman who was free and open even if she was confused and insecure. I wanted to see where this would take her and what would happen to her…. Especially because it seems to me that so many of the present generation of couples in their 30s (who are children of parents from the 1960s) have reverted back to a much more limited and conventional lifestyle in terms of couple relationships and sexuality than many of their own parents had. All of which has nothing to do with the ecstatic release that we are all seeking…
So… no wonder we’re so fucked up!
So yes, I had great fun trying to explore some if these themes in this book… and so the answer to your next question is yes! Absolutely yes!
Could you be friends with Rachel?
Yes! Because she is just as horny and confused and lovable and fucked up as I am…
Do you think the story would be differently received if the lead character were a man instead?
Oh yes absolutely…. But…in fact…your question is so surprising and difficult to contemplate that I feel utterly blank in terms of the ramifications of your question. I mean it’s just such a good question. Amazing! Just think about what you are asking. And the fact that I just automatically answered ‘oh absolutely yes’ without really thinking about it or knowing what your question even means only shows how profound it is…. So even though I answered absolutely yes… I probably need to think about this one for maybe the next 5 or 10 years…
What has been your favourite reaction to/review of Good Pussy, Bad Pussy so far?
The book is getting such great reviews from many different quarters, but the one I love best so far is this one by Sylvia Storm at E-Read Erotica Reviews (ereaderotica.com) because she really got what I was trying to do. For example she writes:
“Yes, it had me turning pages, and that’s a good thing. The book feels like that ‘Chapter 1′ and a couple others have been removed, and the whole book sings and has a great flow because of it. I like the in-media-res style, and here it is wonderfully done. Even the chapters where she meets the new hunk is gone, and we start with that, “I’ve done something terrible!” moment. It’s brave, wonderfully done, and it hooks me in and grabs my interest right from the start.”

What can we look forward to next from you?
I’m actually half way through Good Pussy Bad Pussy book 2 because after I finished the first book, the characters just wouldn’t let me go. It was like they had more to explore and do and tell. It was like they were alive in me and so the obvious question kept arising – where would they go from where I left them at the end of book 1. What would happen to them next? What would they do after all they’d been through? And what would all that drama do to their lives and their character? And how would this affect their sexual experiences? And now they are showing me that they are capable of going even deeper and darker and higher and lighter. So yes, it’s an interesting exploration because once you let these characters loose, they really do take on a life of their own. So I’m pretty excited about what’s happening to them and where this is all leading… so stay turned for more!
