You asked. You received.
Feel free to use this thread as an open chat for all topics writing erotica. Only one rule, if it's likely to get the board in trouble for your use of languages or ideas, pop on over to the bordello's backroom in the password protected SYW forum where all that's OK.

I'm going to hate myself in the morning, but I've been working on my novelette that (in part, thanks to Aggy) required some rewrite. I changed the "public service announcement" just for you Aggy.
It's going to have to wait until tomorrow for finishing and posting. Too stupid tired tonight.
The dirty stuff is fun. I get lost in it. And stretching too thin is a problem. About six months ago, I swore off new story lines until I finish my completed novel (for the seventh time - I hate edits). The problem for me is that my overall production slowed way down when I did that.
I got 1k done on my novel tonight. And I retyped/revised and finished a SF short last night (5200 words). And I'm considering revisions and further chapters for the UF/erotica experiment.
I think I've started to stretch myself too thin. And I'm dithering. I keep checking all my SYW posts to see if I've gotten any more feedback to push me along. *sigh* The dirty stuff is just so much more fun ...
And as a starter - I haven't gotten a thing worked out on my own WIP, but I keep reading great stuff by others. And I still haven't heard back on the pieces that are out.
Yippee! Thank you.
So, how many have you got out? What genres? Anyone else? I have the whole weekend to myself and hope to get something done.
My husband and youngest son are flying to Albuquerque to buy a car. I hope it doesn't turn out to be a big disappointment. They may be driving a $500 clunker home if that happens. Hopefully it will be a trip to remember (in a good way.)
The trip to remember is worth $500.
I've got one piece out with Strange Horizons - SFF. I am trying to complete a rewrite of my novel, and trying not to forget about two pieces that are both about 40K deep. On top of that, I have about twenty pieces I'd like to work on from our practice threads. And one short that's at about 7K and needs to be cut to 5K.
El, you have a lot of irons in the fire.
My daughter and her rugrats just left so I can get back on finally. Hey Lori, congratulations on your book coming out today.
