I got it!

ERMAGERD DEADLINES!
That? That was me last night. I was talking to my partner about the new story I’m writing.
Me: It’s so weird, I’m 1,600 (5 pages) in and there’s no sex yet.
Him: You’re doing it wrong.
Me: No, I think I might be writing erotic romance. Which is weird. But in a good way because I want to submit it to Demons, Imps and Incubi.
Him: What, what and what?
So I went to the Red Moon Romance website to show him the covers and that’s when I turned into Kermit up there. Because, you see, I discovered that the deadline for submissions is December 31st.
Eek!
That may seem like plenty of time, but I have a lot of things on my plate right now. I didn’t realise I was going to have to, erm, pump this story out as quickly as I must to submit it.
Still, pretty exciting and weird. Being five pages in with no sex yet, I mean 😉
ETA: Why isn’t my Kermit flailing? My Kermit is meant to flail, damn it!

“Straight” Categories
I was logged into the stat areas of one of the sponsors for this website and found myself greatly amused by their top-selling “Straight” categories:
The blurred out things are because I was going to share this on my mainstream social media, but then I decided fuck it, I’d post it here instead 😉
Not Your Shield
A very brief aside, if I may…
Have you been following this whole Jian Ghomeshi thing? For those who haven’t, basically what happened is that the famous (and once beloved) host of the CBC radio show Q was recently exposed as an abusive fuck who likes to punch women in the head and assault them sexually but, here’s the bit that relates to this website–right before the story broke about Jian he made a bullshit Facebook post about how CBC was firing him for being kinky.
Really?
Really?
Let me just say I would be disgusted and disturbed by the news about Jian even without that Facebook post, but the fact he would take BDSM and try to use it as a shield for his criminal behaviour just… argh!
I want to write a very long rant post, but I will refrain because everyone reading this knows the difference between consensual kink and criminally abusive behaviour, right? Right?
And also? Fuck you Jian. Kink is not your shield.
