Thanks for saying this. I so agree

I don’t think I’ve ever made any art or written any stories that sprang from spite or being horny. What a weird concept this is to me!

Now that more people I know are migrating here I may have to start posting occasionally!

It’s sad that people want their reviews spoon fed to them via audio or video rather than being willing to spend the same amount of time reading a written review.

Working on a novella in flash now and getting it ready for thorough workshopping in January!
