So you weren't inspired BY the story-- you're the inspiration FOR the story!

It's probably why it caught my imagination in the first place, many people who don't really know me would probably call me nondescript

I like them disjointed too... going from one thing to something completely different and if there is a theme, I do love seeing all the various ways people can interpret that theme.

Interesting. Did you think the title-- Just Watch Me-- was misleading? Or that the stories just didn't flow well together? (Which might be an issue with gathering previously published stories rather than soliciting new stories, I don't know.)
It was a bit choppier than other anthologies by Violet Blue....some of the stories were only nominally voyeuristic

I like that "various ways people can interpret that theme".

See? Anthology readers are all over the map in terms of preferences. And that's okay!

So, this was a lot different than what she normally puts together? How so? Yes I know dumb question but I am in the process of starting a small library from the looks of things.

I honestly don't know where the title came from, other than the idea that these stories are supposed to inspire real-life adventures, hence the "just watch me" idea. Maybe? I really don't know! Titles are sometimes the hardest part of putting together an anthology!

So the title (theme) doesn't come first?

It was not nearly as focused on voyeurism as I'd expected...which I suppose is fine, as long as people are enjoying it.

Good question, I always assumed that they did. And then they worked from there.
