Hee, Aimee, that's great! I think no jury would convict her.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

She looked up and growled, “He kept touching my leg.”

BWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

(BTW)

Just sent out full chapter 9 of new WIP to readers. The suspense aspect of this one is about to go through the ceiling, assuming I don't fuck it up.

What is even happening?

and rises above the mere rhetoric and rant.
HEY! "Mere" rant?
Maybe he never heard about the stilletos, and meant a ~mere~ rant?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

HEY! "Mere" rant?

As has been pointed out already, your rants are ANYTHING but mere. They demand new literary classification. (:

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hee. That story is true-ish.

A Kiss is Still a Kiss (futuristic romance)

He crawled under the covers with me, already dressed for the day. I loved these stolen moments the most. While I liked our nights together making a world of skin and sex in the bed that was ours alone, the mornings were even better. Then, for a few minutes, I could take him away from his world that left me behind and bring him into the finite of lip on lip, cell on cell.

Our lips parted; he stepped onto the silver disc that held the gate. His form shimmered away and the world was too small to hold him anymore.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Genre: fairy tale

They had vowed to stay together, for always and forever. They never imagined it would be like this, forced into closeness within this hot, iron box. Instead of walking out of the woods hand in hand, brother and sister blend together in ash and smoke.

This is the ending that no one likes to talk about.

We prefer the happy endings. We take the heroine's survival as object proof that virtue, perseverance, and faith are always rewarded.

We don't want to hear that sometimes, despite breadcrumbs, pebbles, virtue, and faith, that Hansel and Gretel don't always escape the witch's oven.

Oh, lovely drabbles!

I'm dry. I saw the category, went "oh, hellthefuckYES!" and then saw the genre tag.

Damn it. I don't write straight genre, even in the three soi disant genres - mystery, horror, litfic - that I'm paid for and published in.

This may be another dry week. Ah well. I'll finish R&RNF that much sooner.
