Dude, I like my porn spelled properly.
Then it's called "Erotica." Porn plus Spellcheck = Erotica. You should know that by now.
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Spellcheck adds in the actual interesting plot elements and characterization along with correcting the typos? My impression is that Hamilton needs a lot more than a macro for the correct spelling of "ardor" to move her recent work from porn to erotica...

Always Anti-fascist!
Hec is so funny, although I have been acting under the assumption that Porn+Quotations=Erotica. Is my face red!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Quick drive-by question;
Someone over at LJ was talking about George Sand, which triggered a memory of a book of hers I read as an impressionable teen--it was a novella set in Provence in 19th c., about a girl who is a bit of a wild-child/gypsy-esque, with a grandmother accused of witchery and a feeble/invalid brother. She was a great character--with a nasty streak and a filthy mouth and a scrappy spirit. She and a boy from the "right" side of the track take a sort of shine to each other, and there is a rather lovely, tentative romance. Sand cleaned her up later, made her into too much of a goody-too-shoes healer-type, which I recall sat uneasily with me.
The girl had a nickname--I think, "cricket"? I'm probably remembering it wrong, since I read it translated into Korean 20 years ago. Anyone know which book I'm talking about?

Is it Fanchon, the cricket? I haven't read it.
