ReBlog: On sexual submission (plus my thoughts)
This man’s mind is an amazing thing. His blog is intellectually mesmerizing. I suggest you take a look at this post if you’ve ever been curious about the Dominant/submissive BDSM symbiotic relationship. His post reminded me of the discussions I have had — and led — regarding the varied menagerie of human sexuality while teaching Anthropology. It’s easy to get caught up in your own point of view and not think of it from the Other’s. I’m very guilty of that from time to time.
ReBlog: 25 Things I Want To Say To So-Called “Aspiring” Writers
I love poetry (if you know me in real life, this is nothing new to you). What I love most is how in a few words the author can evoke an image that us painters of prose take pages to express. I also love how, like songs, they compliment a memory or story within your head. This poem in particular made me think so strongly of Kiki and James. Thanks, Beth!

So you remember when I was kvetching about Cross-blogination? Here’s another one. Gemma’s blog is on Blogger mine is of course on WordPress, so I am sharing the link to her review of my book manually.
If you have a Google+ account give her some sugars!

My favorite part of the review is this: “The book doesn’t quite follow the rules of any specific genre – while the main theme is organised crime intertwined is a story of hatred, love and regret, which pleased me greatly. Some may say that you cannot have a story about warring Mafia families, crime and murder with stories of love thrown in, but I think in this instance it really worked.”
Aw, Hell, who am I kidding? I loved the whole thing! I’m so happy right now I could kiss the next seven people who walked up to me!

I’m sitting under our favorite tree
I wondering if you’re thinking of me
I’ve thought about nothing else since you went away
You plague my life day after, day after day.
I think about how you used to hold my hand
And how you always thought my jokes were so grand
I think about the time we went to Paris
We had a great trip, despite your brother Harris
I remember the way you looked after a long, hard day
You knew I’d always be there to assure you, it’s okay
I thought you’d always be here too
Your being gone leaves me without a clue
I sometimes smell a faint memory of your scent
I know it’s not possible, but I hope it’s you leaving me a hint
I thought it would get easier as time passed by
I miss coming home…

Penny and I just love this blog, it really is amazing. 18+
If you are not following this blog, you so should be. The stories inside these pages are heart-wrenching, deeply romantic, and tear worthy all the same time. My thanks to him for sharing his stories, and his world with me, with us. Unworthy.
Can’t believe I forgot to reblog this the other day!
