Do I need to write Wild West Succubus Vigilante stuff?
Probably, if this conversation with the irreplaceable Lora is anything to go by:
Lora: Rachel Manija Brown’s LJ cracks me up. her meme question is “most ridiculous plot twists” -
“There are bizarre premises (“I will break every bone in my body because then they’ll grow back stronger and I WILL BE INVINCIBLE”), the sheer weight of ridiculousness in a single book (the bone-breaking book also featured the near-death of the hero’s milk-allergic brother when the hero’s cheating girlfriend ate pizza, then kissed the brother), the sudden intrusion of absurdity into a previously non-bizarre book (two-thirds sensitive exploration of sketchy power dynamics, one third EVIL BALL OF MASKED S&M SMALL PRESS POETS), and unwanted intrusions by the author’s peculiar id (of course the most desirable whores have hooves.) Not to mention Terry Goodkind's infamous evil chicken. How to choose?”
me: ....I... want to know more about the hooved whores
what?
what kind of whores are they?
horse-whores?
demon whores?
human whores who just happen to be hooved? Cloven or single-toed?
I AM SO CURIOUS NOW
Lora: HAHAHA I AM KIND OF CURIOUS
me: LIKE I CAN'T LET THIS GO
Lora: HAHAHA MAYBE SHE WILL ELABORATE
me: I HOPE SO
but I'm sure the answer is not as exciting as the cursed-to-be-a-succubus-cowgirl-who-turns-vigilante I am now imagining
Lora: ahahahah omg that’s an amazing premise
me: and the title! The Best Whores Have Hooves! shit writes itself!
