    <about><![CDATA[I am here to meet and interact with fellow literati. I have a penchant for modern and post-modern literature, works of literary theory, and science fiction. I am currently working on my undergrad in Philosophy and English Literature.<br/>I am usually a fairly friendly person, but  I'm sometimes condescending or I appear too sure of myself without really intending to be.<br/><br/>I have a growing interest in works of fiction coming from the feminist, queer, or post-colonial perspective; I hope to find others who share this interest.]]></about>

          <body><![CDATA[Christopher Rice-- the son of the infamous Anne Rice-- considers his work to be gay-themed thrillers. So, sort of horror...? A book like &quot;The Snow Garden&quot; definitely gets the adrenaline pumping at times.<br/>Also, Anne Rice herself has written sadomasochistic homoerotica, I believe. It's published under a pseudonym.<br/><br/>On the topic of fantasy fiction, a friend of mine reads Mercedes Lackey's fiction, which I believe is essentially gay-themed fantasy. I'm not really into fantasy, however, and so I've never been able to bring myself to read Lackey.<br/><br/>As far as science fiction goes, I read Robert J. Sawyer's &quot;Neanderthal Parallax&quot; a few years ago and it sort of pertains. A lot of the characters are &quot;bisexual&quot;.]]></body>
