National Stay-in-Bed Day!

National Stay-in-Bed Day!

I created a version of this comic years ago for the fine (and frisky) folks at Ellora’s Cave. It was used in the logo for the publisher’s blog “Sex Talk for Wicked Women.”

While Ellora’s Cave is still in business (publishing erotic fiction for women), the “Sex Talk” blog has apparently been abandoned. The last post was in July of 2011. Too bad. It was a lively site in its heyday.

The original comic book romance art (below) is from First Kiss #19.

Artist unknown. From the story “Suddenly…It’s Love” in First Kiss #19, 1961.
