So I got an email from the Editor[1] saying that my story arrived.
I'll (theoretically) know by September whether or not it gets accepted.
Here's hoping! :-)


TTFN,

[1] I sent "Shimmy" and "In the Pink" to Best Lesbian Erotica 2013.

Greetings!

Still writing on Ghost's netbook, but wanted to post. My erotica show is this Sunday (the 26th) at 8pm at Venus Envy (Lisgar, a few doors east of Bank). $5 gets you an hour of queer chick porn in literary form. :-) Doors open at 7:45.

I confess, I'm advertising the thing entirely on Facebook. :-\ I need to drop a note to the venue manager (Shelley) and ask her to list it on her events list as well.

I have another six poems to come up with between now and then, and not a lot of time in-which to write them. Wish me luck! :-D

So...

I turned down a going-to-permanent-after-three-months job in Kanata, mostly because it's in Kanata -- $12/hr (even if I could negotiate for $13 or $14 once it went permanent) isn't quite enough to justify (A) the very long, very crowded commute and, more to the point, the $85/month (and rising) bus pass required to get me out there. Not for a "for ever" job that, from the sounds of it, is basically the office version of assembly-line: making sure a particular set of forms have been correctly filled out.

On the plus side, I just heard from Deb, my boss at my previous contract (who is awesome, as is her boss -- I like working with them) who has recieved my resume (again) and was just checking to see if I was working somewhere else or not.

So.

HOPEFULLY this means that I'll have another contract with them, walking to work, dealing with people I *like*, and getting a little bit of excersise every day. For the same $12/hr, but that goes a bit further (like an entire month of coffee and spoken-word event covers and brunches and stuff) when I don't have to spend a big wodge of money on a bus pass.

So I am feeling hopeful. This is good. :-)


In other news: Haven't heard from the dude who wants to shoot tomorrow. This is not entirely horrible, but it would be nice to hear back from him some time today so that I know what I'm getting into, how many outfits I should bring, how I should do my hair and makeup, etc. etc. and, y'know, what time I should show up.

Still, I figure I'll dye my hair and shave my legs (and maybe rag my hair, just to see if I can. :-)


Anyway, before I do that, though, I want to hit the grocery store, pick up milk, icecream, OJ, and a few other bits and bites (and pay the nickle for a plastic bag or two, so that I have something to cover my hair with when I dye it!)


Other things to do today:

Dishes

Laundry(?)

Write something short and erotic -- possibly to do with vampires (possibly a gal vampire and a Victim whose gender is ambiguous, so that the readers can see whatever they want to see? Don't know how well I'd do that... But it could be an interesting thing to try).

Start on the River Girl story for my sweetie-pie. Mwahahahaha. Now... to make this 'Married Sex' or 'Hot Stranger Rides Into Town Sex'... (Decisions, decisions...)

Polish a couple of already-started/written poems and maybe try to write another one.


Wish me luck! :-)

Congratulate me!

I have finished "In the Pink"! It is 3,640 words (about six pages) worth of hawt lesbian sex. Well, okay, only about half of it is actually hawt lesbian sex. The other half is lead-up, flirtation and longing. But still.

I shall try it out on my girlfriend, as I wrote it for her, and then see if she's up for letting me share it with other people and/or possible publishers. :-)

Contains: fisting, rimming, making out, strip-tease, sex between friends, a motorcycle, a pink bra, and brunch.


:-D


I'm rather proud of myself, actually. The last time I tried to write original porn (of any significant length) I wrote a really hot scene, but the lead-up with a bit, er... lacking.

I may eventually return to it, but for now I think I'll try to write another new one. A kinky D/s S/M scene that plays on the whole idea of sex-magic and is really, *really* sensual.

At least that's my hope. ;-)

That said, it'll have to wait for another day, as I've got to do some cleaning up this morning before company comes at 1pm. :-)

So.

I got up today.

Which, given yesterday, definitely counts as Accomplishement Number One. ;-)


Seanchaidh and I are getting together tomorrow afternoon for tarot and griping, or similar, which should be nice. :-) I think I'll be cleaning out the fridge this afternoon in preparation for said event. :-)


This morning, I have done the following:

1) Made a pair of earrings for my sweetie-pie (I shan't describe them, as said sweetie-pie can see this post and I want them to be a surprise. ;-)

2) Started typing up "In the Pink" (my latest bit of erotica).

[EDIT: "In the Pink" is coming along. It's very... breast-centric at the moment. Hm... Also: Have bought shoes online. Pointy-Toed Mary-Janes. Just 'cause I can. :-)
/EDIT]


Things I'd like to get done today (and/or tomorrow morning):

1) Laundry
2) Fridge-Cleaning
3) Dishes
4) Finish "In the Pink"
5) Start typing my next erotica story (a significantly kinkier one), which currently has no title but will probably end up being called "Scent of Cedar" or something equally sensual and evocative.
6) Postering for VoV (Whee!)
7) Get gatoraide or similar, as I think it will help me get rid of this headache.


With that in mind: Time for more writing.

Greetings! :-)

I have been told that I should switch the names in a piece of my fanfic!porn, and submit it for publication.

With that in mind, I have done as I was told, and quasi-rewritten the story with Original Characters (more or less).

Please, please, please: Have a Look and give me some feed-back!
Please!

I need all the help I can get. :-)

Thank you very much. :-)
