Now that I might try
Having read the books twice and seen the movie, I can say with some authority that very little goes on in the book as concerns the bedroom, that I have not experienced myself.
The story captures my heart because there are elements in it that are so familiar to me, and they tear at the very heart of my inner rigging. I have read lots of snarky comments from those who have not read it. There are similar elements in some of my stories. Hmmmm
There are several authors here who could do a more skillful job of it but will they? I may just try this.

The problem is
the original author couldn't write. A case of advertising hype over reality. Plus who wants to read 'Mummy porn'?

Who wants to read mummy porn?
Egyptologists?;-)
Au contraire
In looking at the writing style of several authors, E.L. James is one of the easiest authors I have ever read. Well read, well sold authors that I know like David Weber and Isaac Asimov are real slogs in comparison.
Angharad, your writing is lovely and several other authors on BCTS are good too. For some reason 50 shades has be giggling and bouncing in my chair with real glee, perhaps because I have experienced so many of the situations depicted in the book. Sure, I never did any boinking on a baby grand piano but we did do it on a running clothes dryer and a park bench on the beach!

Too crazy to be loved?
I was thrown out of a 39 year marriage because I was too crazy. I never beat anyone, though was beaten. I never committed infidelity, though I my love did. In the books, the unloveable was loved, the abused was healed, the crazy made sane, something that I will never experience.
The past has left me with a burning black hole in my heart. Though I do my best to always do good to others, no one realizes or cares about the deep inner needs that will never be fulfilled. I had my chance and fucked it up and will likely burn in hell for it.
So, my own insanity is the fatal attraction for me?
There is no hell
Just this place. If I'm wrong ( I'm not usually) you'll be in good company.
