Desire Lines
Are you ready to go on a journey with desire?
If you've ever felt that there's more to your sexual self than society and the media want you to believe, then this book is for you. The time has come to stop simply reflecting what society expects us to be, and -- instead -- to explore our desires and emanate who we each truly are.
Anna Sansom offers an inspiring and original look at the unique paths we take when we follow our personal desire lines. She shares stories of her own sexual journey, along with evocative erotica, poetry, and reflective questions, to help you explore and create a map of your own desires.
"Anna is willing to go to her edges when writing and courageously brings through themes and ideas that perhaps other writers would shy away from. She gives voice to those who may have been reluctant to share their own stories, and challenges the reader of Desire Lines to explore their own desires and get to know their sexual self." Nicola Humber, mentor to Unbound women, and author of UNBOUND
Read Desire Lines to discover:
What a desire line is. How your desire lines can help you feel expansive and whole. What it's like to follow your desires, especially if they are subversive, non-conventional, or simply contrary to what others may expect of you. What obstacles -- and what opportunities -- you might you find on the paths of your desires. What you need and want to be your fullest and truest sexual self. "The world needs more writers like Anna Sansom. She gives voice to multi-layered, diverse experiences of desire, in particular when it comes to expressing female sexuality in a non-misogynistic, empowering way." Brida Seaver
Anna is a former sexual surrogate partner and wrote the Sex/Life column for DIVA Magazine for two years. Her published erotica includes short stories and a full length novel. Frustrated by the limited and restrictive portrayals of women's sexuality in the mainstream media, she is driven to offer alternative perspectives. Desire Lines provides a unique and insightful way of looking at sexuality by exploring the themes of our desires, rather than focusing on specific fantasies. These themes (our personal desire lines) help to reveal who we are, what we need, and what we want, to thrive as sexual beings.
Desire Lines contains graphic language and descriptions of sex and sexuality, including kink and BDSM, gender and body non-conformity, lust and love. Anna embraces diverse experiences of sexuality including explorations of queer identities and ethical non-monogamy. This book was a co-creation with Lilith: the untamed, intuitive and free aspect of every woman.

This book is wonderfully written and a treat to read. It's real. It explores desire in a way that guides the reader along their own desire lines and to me it felt really validating and empowering. Highly recommend!

This book is open, vulnerable, delicious, courageous, and downright remarkable. A delightful blend of Anna's own story and some of her erotic stories. Unputdownable and empowering!

I've been fortunate to read an advance copy of 'Desire Lines.' Taking Lilith as her Muse, Anna Sansom tells us about her own experiences and struggles as she tries to live her life true to her own passions and desires. Sometimes shocking, often erotic, her stories (and Lilith's) are fascinating and powerful. Reading them makes us consider our own experiences in a new light, and perhaps will even encourage us to follow our own desire lines from now on.
