Authors Who Crave Verisimilitude Learn to Unlace a Corset in a Good Bodice Ripper

I thought this was a great article on a presentation that was given at this year's Romance Writers of America's convention.  There's also a video attached which now gives me an idea on why a lady's maid was needed.

This was interesting but now it's kind of blown my imagination away when I read the historicals frown  No more bodice-ripping scenes cuz now I know it's impossible <sigh>
