Oh! Is Something Wicked the new name for your steampunk anthology? You had the best name for it, but someone else beat you to it, if I recall... it was Clockwork and Corsets.

Catching up online. Just watched the most recent episode, and all I have to say is wow. I'm almost mad I caught up, because I cannot wait for the next episode. I also have to pick the next series to catch up on, lol.
I haven't watched last week's episode yet...

Most certainly! I'm rather fond of fairy tales right now-- and Naked Readers!

Well since quickies ran out of steam....I have a question about print books vs ebooks. Are there specific challenges to publishing the ebooks that you don't have with print? Also do they normally sell better?

What is this "Something Wicked"?
Something Wicked is the title of another fairy tale anthology idea I pitched to my fabulous publisher Cleis Press. Fingers crossed they like the idea... and I'll be telling you all about a new call for submissions.

Having said that, I also pitched a couple other ideas that I think you all will LOVE if they come to fruition. I will definitely keep you posted!

Has anybody else read the original Grimms Fairy Tales?

Okay so here are my thoughts......I enjoyed many of the stories in the book. I liked the brevity. Nice little snippets. However, my wife and I often read to each other as a form of foreplay and these were just too short for that purpose.

Please do. I have a dirty mind and a rather empty wallet at the moment

I though Flashers was beautifully written for a piece so short. It reminded me of the Eric Carle book "The Lonely Firefly" It was not hot, but it was beautifully written. Like haiku erotica without all the rules.

Oh! Laurel, Can I do a vid exerpt of Carrie's story?

sounds a little paranoramal right there!

And as for quickies....they serve their purpose. I'd prefer something long and drawn out, though.

Love Grimms Fairy Tales. Also Hans Christian Anderson, The Snow QUeen and The Girl Who Trod on a Loaf were my faves!

It most certainly is paranormal! My story in Thief of Hearts deals a little with insomnia.
