Writing Journal: While I was away last weekend, I was whacked on the head by the Story Fairy, who finally gave me the idea I needed to outline Book III of The Adjusters. This is great, because I have been struggling to figure out how to bridge the gap between Book II (which is almost done) and Book IV (for which I already know the story). And no, I couldn't just jump into the arc that is to be Book IV directly after Book II. That would be too abrupt.
The Paris Review has an interesting essay about the Naughty Librarian trope.
Not a recent story, but still worth putting out there. It's about plagiarism at Amazon, and other online self-published ebooks retailers, for erotica. I don't think this has hit me yet. I wonder if I should feel slighted...
Darkness, a hilarious short comic about a roommate with “brooding seductive superpowers” from Boulet (via IO9).
A NSFW funny webcomic, Blooming Faeries.
Don't you want to know what the story behind that first picture on top is?
Interesting essay by Jim C. Hines on writing about rape. Unsure how this applies to mind-control smut, though...
I love old Italian fumetti. They are just so... out there! The Groovy Age of Horror gives us a translation of one that's particularly mindfucking. I mean, really.
A documentary about porn stars that looks like it's actually interesting.
Speaking of porn, here's an interesting article on James Deen, a male porn star, and female fans of the genre.
I did not know you could break your dick. Ouch.
This gives new meaning to the Sexy Legal Assistant trope.
I'm not particularly surprised at the reaction, but still, come on folks, it's perfectly okay to blow other people to Kingdom Come with Extreme Prejudice in video games, but a little slavery play is out?
I'm not leaving you without a story. This is an oldie, but a sweetie, Disturbing Coincidence's Failed Experiment: “A college student takes place in an experiment that changes his brain. He uses his newfound abilities to change his life... one beauty at a time." Incomplete, but what is there is excellent. And the introduction of Shelley is just brilliant. The way she submits to get what she wants, it adds a whole new level of awesome to this story.
