Hi MD – -
I’m curious about the parameters of your marketers.
Personally I don’t have an issue with private collections of erotic art and I don’t think that’s an individual choice…not for anyone to say. […]

You really have to work hard at keeping up with everything that’s out there. If you’re looking for a quick read, you might try her Hunter of Worlds. It’s an engrossing read you can bang out quick. I’m having a […]

A good, informative review, Gary. She’s a completely new writer for me and I’m glad you pinged my radar about her current and recent works.

Joshua–
A well written and sober analysis. I have a few differences in my outlook, but support the bulk of your comments. Sex, eroticism, and romance are difficult subjects to pull off because readers always […]

Interesting article, Morgana. Personally, I thought the woodblock was pretty tame, but I’m non-reactive to most such things. I like erotic art and usually don’t think of it as pornagraphy unless it lacks all grace […]

Well Michael, I’ll try to clarify my comment.
Just because a movie-goer reads something into a movie doesn’t mean it’s there.

Hi Morgana–
You know, I’m sorry, I didn’t even think the book’s availability was going to be a problem. And you’re right. It was much harder to find this book than I’d have imagined. I found one place that […]
