Soooo. We are heading into the final portion of Pride and Prostitutes, and it has been a qualified success, enough so that we are going ahead with this. We will have a lot of changes in the future, but most of them will be behind the scenes ( Read more... )

I look forward to whatever you choose to write, with one tiny wistful request that there be more characters of color and ethnicity added in. I love Pride and Prostitutes, but hoped to see some Native Americans and or other folks to represent a broader range of sexual equality.

Love the blurb for Lady Silver. Hate the name. It does not draw me in. Just my personal opinion.

This. Cannot get behind Stormy Willowsong or dodge the reflexive brain-cringe. But the blurb is a big yes.

Yes, I love the synopsis for it, but the name Stormy does make me think of a Rainbow Bright character. Maybe just Storm? . . .

Hmmm... they all sound pretty interesting. I vote for the one with more S/M! (Personal greed talking here). Preferably one with unrepentant sadists. Way too much BDSM porn has doms/tops who are A) Assholes* or B) Emo and always sorry they have such awful desires. Either really takes the fun out of it!

*Entertaining assholes are OK.

I hate to say it, but none of these really intrigues me enough to want to read more. I've ranked them in order from best to least interesting and done my best to explain why. Please believe me when I say that I am not out to cut you down, I'm just sharing the impact the blurbs had on this one reader in case there are others out there who feel similarly ( ... )

Correction: Willowsong.

Well, I hope you would trust us to make it awesome. I guarantee you we could do "Emo High School Northwest Vampires" and make it actually cool. But there actually are no werewolves or vampires in Lady Silver, though there are demons. It is entirely a good witch vs bad witch story.

Crimson Claw is Planetary Romance, with the beginning just being a kind of tribute to "First Men in the Moon".

"Age of Winter" is an idea that was me letting my High Fantasy flag fly like crazy. Much more serious, more angsty, and more lyrical.

Oh, I trust that you guys would manage to convince me to love it even if the blurb doesn't sound that appealing, but since I was asked to judge the blurbs and tell you what I thought, I thought I'd go ahead and do that.

Age of Winter definitely stands out as the best potential storyline for me. The other two I'm meh about.
