Chapter 451 (1/2)
Ugly Rhymes With Devilry
This author also happened to be a juvenile-genre novelist.
This female writer’s pseudonym was “Zi Mu.” Her first novel had been about an alcoholic, tattooed smoker. This apparent delinquent was actually a nice lady who was willing to sacrifice everything for love. Throughout the entire novel, everything that motivated the character had been the idea of being a loyal lover.
Love transcended all else.
When it came to love, it was perfectly fine to be a third-wheel!
Where did such thoughts come from? The author, of course!
Now, why did this author get so much attention from the public? When she was promoting her first novel, she had confessed that the story was part of her experiences.
She proved herself as an extremely capable erotica artist, as she described her sex experiences as a “groupie” with a rock band that she deeply fell in love with.
Women can be really talented at writing erotic stories, while Zi Mu was one of the leading-edge writers in teen romance novels. It probably had something to do with her past experiences.
“Groupie” was a slang word commonly used when referring to fans of a particular musician, band, or celebrity who follow the group- or individual- as they toured. Most of them would be more than willing to offer sex services to their idols.
Sex and drugs have always been deeply rooted in rock music. Zi Mu would have to bring her readers to the scene in person if she wanted to get any more detailed. In her story, however, the female protagonist was mistreated by the male protagonist after she sacrificed much for him.
A particularly brutal scene depicted the female protagonist getting mercilessly gang-banged by male protagonist and his friends. The description had been so bold and graphic that it would have been censored if it ever got on the Internet. But it was in her book, and that was the reality of human nature and art.
Stories that depicted cuckolding and sexual intercourse were often the best way to describe human nature.
Writers who lacked talent often attempted to borrow strength from the shock factor of such stories.
For readers who cared only about the erotic scenes, real-life tragic experiences of the writer would be the least of their concerns.
Zi Mu made her reputation by claiming that her debut novel was based on her actual life experiences. She became the hottest topic among the paparazzi.
Clear sky doesn’t last forever, especially when she was not the most gifted writer out there. She never not put much effort into improving her writing skills. As time passed, nobody gave a damn about her books anymore.
