Fandom: Original

Borrowed from swweeks: Read THIS in my Journal. NOTE: This entry is f-locked. However, after the prior clarification post and knowing that several TtM members are on my f-list, I'm going to leave it that way.

K. I have signed up again. I somehow missed that post. My flist sometimes doesn't show me everything.

BTW, I'm going to friend you again. LOL, we've been through this friending/unfriending a few times, but I'm getting irritated that I can't see your updates. No need to friend back. You are friended to my other journal, but I don't use that one as a reading list.

You know I don't lock anything down. I just am not interested in the B/J. I was reading Xanthe's update page the other day, and I thought of you. She's written some incredible stuff (including some of the only McShep I can actually buy), and she got attacked majorly by some BNFs in that fandom because they didn't like her story. She's very heavy into BDSM, and while I didn't read the wank, she mentioned that it made it harder for her to write. Sad how that happens.

I wonder if it's the BDSM that does that, or just, anything different. Because there have been people in BJ attacked for writing BDSM. I don't really consider myself a BDSM writer. I splash in the pond and I have done some slave fiction, but probably I do more D/s stuff.

I am saddened for that writer, it IS tough. I hope she can pick herself up and get back to work.

BTW, I've thought of rereading your original BDSM piece. Did you get rid of that? Was it flocked? I haven't looked for it, just asking.

I took it down. It had some structural/logistical problems with it that a reader pointed out, and I keep meaning to go back and rewrite.

Okay, fair enough. I liked that piece, Lit. If you don't go back to it, perhaps you'll do something like it one day.

I think you misspelled that writer's name. I was curious to go look at her journal--and possibly friend her to read her story.

And she is probably the most BDSM-oriented writer out there. A couple of her stories are too much for me, but General & Dr Sheppard and 24/7 are fabulous.

Thank you for making me aware of her work. I will check it out.
