[September 13, 2005] EroticShiver.com Launches, Offering Original Erotic MP3 Audio Stories to Help Women Restore Passion in Their Relationships Tweet LOS ANGELES --(Business Wire)-- Sept. 13, 2005 -- Grab That iPod; New Audio Book Club and Online Community Debuts, Delivering Quality Erotic Audio Content -- And Enabling Women to Rediscover Their Sex Drives Virtually every woman has felt it at some point, to varying degrees, and wondered how it could happen -- the disappearance of those sexual impulses that were so prevalent in youth, but are all too easily forgotten amidst the busyness of careers, families, carpools ... all of life's responsibilities and stresses. Now, there's a breakthrough solution for every woman -- and the partner next to her. EroticShiver (www.eroticshiver.com), an audio book club and online community, launches today, offering women a fresh new approach to rediscovering passion -- one that uses high-quality erotic audio stories in MP3 format, designed especially for women, to engage a woman's most significant sex organ: her mind. Nearly one-third of Americans say lack of intimacy is the No. 1 reason for loss of passion in relationships, according to a survey conducted this summer for EroticShiver by market research firm Synovate. EroticShiver is the first company to turn erotic stories into a library of professionally recorded audio files -- especially designed to help women re-ignite their passion by providing high-quality, female-focused erotic content that engages the mind, and does not exploit women in any way. "These stories will make your toes curl!" exclaimed Australia native Amanda Clarkson, founder of EroticShiver, a former personal trainer to women and author of the forthcoming book, "Who Stole My Sex Drive?" "These stories are extremely powerful, and a wonderful use of MP3 technology -- perfect for women overwhelmed by career and family stress, who've lost that spark in their relationships. We want to help women make their sex lives vibrant again. "The market is full of products designed for men, but this is the first time anyone has offered high-quality erotic audio stories specifically created for women," Clarkson said. "And using MP3 technology, women can privately listen to these stories anywhere." Focusing on the experiential, rather than the visual, erotic audio stories are uniquely suited to meet a woman's need to engage the mind -- before the body -- to feel sexy. The EroticShiver stories offer high-quality content in a range of styles, voices and scenarios, to satisfy women's varied needs and desires. The stories are offered exclusively through EroticShiver's audio book club. Membership in the book club is free, and is available through the company's website at www.eroticshiver.com. Each audio book costs $19.95 and includes seven short stories. A new volume of seven stories will be released each month. To purchase the stories safely and securely online, the consumer simply creates an EroticShiver account, downloads the audio book to a computer, then uploads the audio book to an iPod or other MP3 player, or a CD. An Everywoman Who Rediscovered Passion After several years of wondering why her own sex drive had gone missing -- and after attempts to restore it with testosterone cream and products designed with only men's visual needs in mind -- Clarkson at last discovered erotic stories, and was back in the pink again in no time. Not a sex expert, medical professional or psychological counselor, Clarkson, 39, is an everywoman with a common problem -- who rediscovered her sexuality through erotic stories, and now wants to share her secret with women everywhere. "First I had to admit to myself how much I really missed sex and feeling sexy," said Clarkson. "Then, I realized I couldn't re-ignite my sex drive without a conscious effort on my part to start thinking about sex again. That's why erotic stories were so effective. They put me in another world at that moment, right in the middle of the action. I was able to safely -- and privately -- explore areas of my sexuality that I was previously too scared, too embarrassed or too 'moral' to look into. These stories offered the perfect female way to start thinking about sex again. Now the MP3 format elevates the experience to a whole new level. It's fantastic!" The EroticShiver.com website also serves as an online community for women who want to connect with other women and share their experiences, with forums, a newsletter, a dating community and an online toy store. "We wanted to provide a place where our members can raise issues, express thoughts, offer suggestions and basically say anything they want," said Clarkson. "The more we can talk about sex openly and freely with each other, the more we can truly enjoy it in our lives."
