(VAN NUYS, CA) -- Vivid Entertainment Group, a leading provider of adult entertainment, has launched an ongoing "Fantasies and Dreams" competition to find outstanding erotic writing and art appealing primarily to women. A collection of the best works will be published on its soon-to-be-launched www.vivid4women Website.
Vivid will present awards each quarter to finalists for fiction, non-fiction, poetry, photography and artwork. Winners will receive "love baskets" containing Vivid Videos and DVDs and the latest sex toys from SexToysNetwork.com.
"We welcome submissions from both men and women - but the only criterion is that the material be created primarily for the enjoyment of women," said Steven Hirsch, co-chairman and a founder of Vivid. "We expect that winning submissions will be used in other Vivid venues, including videos, The Hot Networks on pay-per-view cable and satellite, and possibly even in a book publishing program.
"We have been a leading provider of erotic entertainment for men and we've recently had an increasing number of requests from the wives and girlfriends of our male customers to create more content for women," said Mr. Hirsch. "We began experimenting earlier this year with a special 'women only' section on our www.vividvideo.com Website and the response has encouraged us to open a separate female-oriented site."
Vivid4women.com will include excerpts of outstanding novels, short stories, poems, artwork and other material and will have a special section for "Fantasies and Dreams" submissions. Members of the free site will be allowed to cast their votes for their favorite material.
