ABOUT COMING TOGETHER

Conceived online in the Literotica.com® Author's Hangout, Coming Together is the result of many hours of collaboration between some very talented authors, poets, and illustrators who have (ahem) "come together" to produce a scintillating er0tic cocktail. In each volume of this series, the reader may partake of a variety of intoxicating spirits: r0mance, both hetero- and homosexual romps, humor, and more. Since its founding in 2005, Coming Together has won a variety of prestigious awards and has contributed over $11,000 to causes ranging from AIDS and breast cancer research to civil liberties.
