Well, it's the fact that I'm free to create my own fantasy worlds with my own characters and to design them by my own rules, ideally being able to captivate not only myself, but also my readers. :-) I'm happy whenever I succeed in striking a chord with someone!(less)

Quotes by Jutta Swietlinski  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The kiss isn’t even unexpected, but it overwhelms me completely.
It’s only when Laura’s lips touch mine that I realize how much I’ve been longing for this.
I hold my breath when she wraps her arms around me and pulls me close. It’s intoxicating to feel her so close to me, to smell her, to taste her.”
Jutta Swietlinski, Flowing like Water

“Because I’ve also realized very clearly that I love you. I have loved you for a long time and I am very sure that I will always love you. You are a wonderful, vibrant, incredibly lovable person, you have enriched my life and shown me who I really am, and I will be eternally grateful to you for that.”
Jutta Swietlinski, Returning Home to Her

“Linet, it’s a great pleasure to meet you! What can I offer you? Sex on the Beach? A Screaming Orgasm? And maybe something to drink as well?” She winks at me mischievously.”

“There is something delicious about writing the first words of a story. You never quite know where they'll take you.”
Beatrix Potter

“The kiss isn’t even unexpected, but it overwhelms me completely.
It’s only when Laura’s lips touch mine that I realize how much I’ve been longing for this.
I hold my breath when she wraps her arms around me and pulls me close. It’s intoxicating to feel her so close to me, to smell her, to taste her.”
Jutta Swietlinski, Flowing like Water

“She looks into my eyes very intensely for a moment before taking another truffle. “I’m always open to attempts at bribery of this kind,” she says mischievously and puts the treat in her mouth with relish.
I have to swallow and take out a chocolate as well. Suddenly I have a ravenous appetite.”
Jutta Swietlinski, Flowing like Water

“Laura turns her gaze back to me, smirking mischievously. “Do you like chocolate?”
I notice a delighted grin forming on my face. “‘Like’ is not the right word. I LOVE chocolate!”
Jutta Swietlinski, Flowing like Water

“When I asked her yesterday evening by text message, she only told me very briefly that she’s “quite low-maintenance” when it comes to food. However, I did remember that she had told me she eats mostly vegetarian but isn’t very dogmatic about it.
I’m glad to know that, because this way I was able to refrain from roasting a goose. Or cooking a suckling pig. Or half a cow.”

Jutta Swietlinski Hi everyone,
Lesbian Visibility Week has come! 👭 🏳️‍🌈
On this occasion, all my e-books are on sale on Amazon: the English novels April 24-26, the German novels April 25-27. 📚 🌈
Happy lesbian reading! 📖 👩❤️💋👩

Jutta Swietlinski Happy New Year, everyone! 🌻☀️🌈
Have a great time -- and, of course, happy reading! 📚📖❣️

Jutta Swietlinski Late Bloomers Late in the Year … 🤶
No, it’s in fact the beginning of the summer season when my two protagonists Laura and Carina, both in their fifties, meet for the first time, and it’s high summer when they realize that they’ve begun to develop feelings for each other … 💕
My newly published sapphic late bloomer romance Flowing like Water is the perfect reading matter to warm your hearts – and sometimes make you feel hot as well … 😎
My novel is a romantic summer reading during the wintery holiday season for every reader who loves emotional lesbian books. 👩‍❤️‍👩
And, of course, it makes a great Christmas gift! 🎁
Kindle Edition now available for only $ 3.99 exclusively throughout the month of December! 🎄

Jutta Swietlinski HAPPY HALLOWEEN, everyone! 👽🤖💀☠️👻👹😈🎃
Have a wonderfully creepy day/evening/night! 🧟🧛‍♀️
And if you prefer reading to partying, make sure you read something scary (and no, I don't mean biographies of famous creeps ...)! 📖😎
You can't go wrong with a horror novel by Stephen King (my all-time favorite: It), Anne Rice, Whitley Strieber or some of the classics, like Frankenstein, Dracula, Carmilla or Rebecca. Or what about a Lovecraft or Poe book? Or a more recent novel by John Ajvide Lindqvist, Mira Grant or Joe Hill? 📚 (I'm just beginning to realize that there are a lot more male than female horror fiction writers ... 🤔)
What are your favorite horror books? Will you tell me? I'd love to know.

Jutta Swietlinski Hi everyone,
are any of you visiting the Frankfurter Buchmesse/Frankfurt Book Fair in Germany this evening? 📚 Anything of interest there? 😉
Unfortunately, I couldn't/can't go this year, but my book Returning Home to Her is there. 😎 Just check out the yellow area on the "Selfpublisher-Verband" bookshelves ... 🌈☺️
Anyway, have fun and a wonderful Sunday -- and, of course, happy reading! 🌻📖
