I never have comprehended American morality -
It's okay to blow someone's brains out all over prime time tv, but god help you if you show a naked breast.

Well, my MC gets stripped nekkid before I crucify her, does that count?
I meant I wasn't going to YA the explicit sex vamp book. Trust me when I apply the "explicit" label to it.

I think stripping her naked is not allowed in the YA market, somehow ... esp if you're going to crucify her later.

![]() ok - 2000 wds that pay - badly, but they pay probably another 2000 on the current WIP though I haven't run the official word count ... both of those need to go up (though the WIP count will include edits/revisions to existing work) by about another 3k by next week, I think Also, I'm throwing in an extra goal. I have two finished stories that have been lurking on the hard drive gather digitial dust. They're going to get submitted this week. And if not, may I suggest Lily gets to do "research" on Haggis?

We do.
And, as this is the first I've noticed - congrats on the 10k post count ![]() (Do you have *nothing* else to do all day but hang here? )

I can work him into the fantasy... the MCs could get extra hungry along the way and this chubby little pooch could appear in their path just as someone's aiming an arrow at a squirrel...

I'm finally done being sick, so I think I can safely post some goals for this week.
1000 words. Two blog posts of 350 words each. That should do it, methinks.
