We do! (but also talk about trad pub stuff)

I know I've read that dynamic before but I'm drawing a blank. I'll dig through some of my read lists and see if something sparks, this isn't something I usually track in my reading.

We're working on a follow up but just didn't get it done for this year (and I'm going on vacation in about 5 hours, so…).

Don't add huge chunks of text that mean if it comes back to me I'm going to have to reread the whole thing to check for continuity errors.

You're welcome! Highly recommended for former academics everywhere

You're right that the blurb reads that way which is weird because the FMC is definitely a POV character

I might say "verbing weirds language" in real life on a regular basis.

Intriguing. TBF, that chastity belt thing is *very* distracting.

Also, I feel like chores in a Dom/sub context has a very different vibe than in a playing house context. We didn't get into that at all in our convo, but definitely something to think about.

And you know what megasucks? Before this I never would have tagged Raskin (in the above video) as a milquetoast dem. He was such a badass when I worked with him at the state level.

I did the same. The humidity this morning was brutal.

It's so disappointing, he's been a progressive champion for years (I worked with him on environmental stuff 15 years ago when he was a state-level guy)

Don't worry, they also clearly state that romances are about centering women's pleasure on the page. Pretty sure they don't know that gay romances are even a thing.
