AnthologyBuilder: This is Really Cool

Have you heard of AnthologyBuilder?

It's the kind of site you could end up spending half the night browsing for images and stories. I speak from experience. What's it all about? AnthologyBuilder allows you to build your own anthology (haha...just like the title says! clever.) choosing from hundreds of stories from all sorts of publications, from Romance to Sci Fi (sorry, no erotica *tear*). These are all published works, so you know you're getting quality.

Here's how it works:

We're Having a Kissing Contest!

"Romance in the Backseat" is having a kissing contest!

Here's how it goes. 4 excerpts from 4 different authors. You choose your favourite. Easy, right?

Now, I won't tell you which one to vote for...but remember I wrote a book called ONDINE...and sales of ONDINE could put my finances back in the BLACK...

Oh, and (here's the part where I kiss ass) I like what you've done with your hair. That outfit looks great. Have I told you lately that I love you?

LOL. Okay, enough. But I always appreciate y...

Quick Six Interview with I.D. Locke

1. Hey there! Thanks for joining me at Donuts & Desires. First off, would you be so kind as to tell us what type of stories you write?

IDL: I write m/m erotica. The genre goes from contemporary to sci-fi/fantasy to future fic. It just depends on what cast of characters I'm playing with at any given time.

2. What are you reading right now?

IDL: Mostly fanfic and a few for-free online stories.

3. I hear music in the background…what's playing?

IDL: Digging Our Own Graves by Painbastard is just star...

Sweet's Big Juicy Slab of Meat

The meal Sweet prepared for me looked so beautiful I made her take a picture. Here it is! If you're looking for the "big juicy slab of meat," it's hidden under the mushrooms. (There are so many jokes I could make about my trans girlfriend hiding a big juicy slab of meat...but I won't go there.) Anyway, her steak was the best I've ever tasted. (What's so funny about that?) Oh, I'm being bad today. Sweet? Honey? I need a spanking!

Until next year,
Happy Valentine's Day!

What Converted this Valentine's Day Resistor?

I used to be as strong a V-Day resistor as I was a radical feminist. I thought it was a cruel pseudo-holiday (no, no, no…I didn't say "cool super-holiday") created by Corporate America to make lovers into consumers. Think of all the stuff we're supposed to buy our girlfriends on V-Day: a dozen roses to go with two dozen chocolates, an expensive meal in a fancy restaurant, and a tiny slip of lingerie she's supposed to squeeze herself into after eating all this! Over and above the big items,...

Reading is Sexy on Valentine's Day

Read a sexy scene from your favorite novel to each other. Just a paragraph or two can pave the way to some smoking hot sex, especially if you decide to role play as your favorite characters. Important tip: no giggling over the dirty words, and no substituting the word "rooster" for the more common four-letter description.

Have a great and romantic Valentine's Day!

My Romantic Plans for a Valentine's Day On the Cheap

Sweet and I are going the inexpensive route to make each other feel special this year. She's always wanted a manicure and pedicure, so I'm hauling the footbath out of the cupboard. I'll give her a nice little foot massage (I love her adorable little toes!) before giving her the new bottles of nail polish I picked up. I'll treat her like a queen, doing her nails, and while they dry we'll watch any movie she wants (and that includes episodes of Stargate SG-1 on DVD-which, honestly, is probab...

What not to Watch on Valentine's Day

Watch a romantic movie together. Note: Neither "Spaceballs" nor "Scary Movie" constitute a "romantic comedy." Nor do any movies with exploding cars, crashing planes, serial killers, or the words "Live Long and Prosper." Don't let anyone tell you differently.

Have a great and romantic Valentine's Day!

An Erotic Valentine's Day Bible Reading (Seriously!)

As you may recall, last year for Valentine's Day I created an original animation and a Charles Spearin-inspired piece of music to go along with it. It was called i knew and expressed the emotions I felt the first time my lovely girlfriend Sweet walked through my door.

This year, I've created something equally heartfelt (though, admittedly, much less labour-intensive) for Sweet. It's a reading. It's a BIBLE reading. Seriously. And I hope like hell it's the most erotic bible reading you'll ...

Food Fun for Valentine's Day

Food can add spice to sex. Go for the sweet stuff -- chocolate, honey, etc. Forget about the calories -- just drizzle and enjoy. Be creative; edible fingerpaints are a great way to add an artful element to your play. Note: I would avoid filling any body cavities with chili peppers. Most folks do not find internal combustion conducive to a romantic evening -- unless you're into that sort of thing, in which case, go for it.

Have a great and romantic Valentine's Day!
