Yesterday we held a Twitter contest for the best #AuthorSexts, a tribute to Sam Pink’s sexting campaign to launch his new novel, Rontel. Participants sullied the voice of their favorite author or sexed-up a famous book title with a filthy pun. With hundreds of entries, it was a deplorable, shameful, wonderful union of highbrow and lowbrow.

The authors of our five favorite #AuthorSexts, and winners of free eBooks of Sam Pink’s new novel, are: @TheLincoln, @RRRubenstein, @Seasheila, @GuthrieK, and @SimonArcan. But since sext is always better with a partner, we’ve shared some of the highlights below. Definitely NSFW.

Hungry for more sexts? Read some Sexts from Sam Pink, who the LA Review of Books calls “one of the best, darkest, funniest, wildest, and touching writers we’ve got.” Or get Sam Pink’s Rontel here.

Benjamin Samuel is the co-editor of Electric Literature. He never knew a job could be NSFW. Feel free to enlighten him on Twitter.
