Some anthologies are all reprints, like Maxim Jakubowski's Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica. He pulls stories from a wide variety of authors and publications, so while I expect to see stories I might have read elsewhere, most are new to me. It's such a large collection that it doesn't bother me if 3 or 4 stories are familiar. As long as an anthology is clearly labeled as an all-reprint collection, I'm okay with it.

That IS a shame, because if you really enjoy a genre, you can be missing out on something that is your favorite. I think of albums from musicians I really love...the Greatest Hits often leave out some of my favorite stuff because it didn't happen to be a hit, but was still completely awesome!

I? Am completely greedy and when I find something I love, I go looking for every possible new source of material from the same author I can find.

Oh no!! Have to hide the toys from the kids.

I think we all go through stages like this in our lives, where our sex drive lags or surges. Life, stress, meds...so many things can make a difference in our desire to have sex.

Probably we've all been there and can identify.

I have a feeling that Soroya would be right up there on the list.

We thought they *were* hidden but unfortunately this dog has an insane craving for leather of all kinds and can sniff it out nearly anywhere. Really, nothing's safe... shoes, coats, toys, whatever.

Lol, I'm trying!

But no, my friend called me and I got roped into conversation about how he's been coming across as a jealous boyfriend and I'm all "I introduced you to your boyfriend, stfu" and we talked it out and now everything is dandy
