Whoring for Attention and a PSA  
There is absolutely no way to do this and not have it look like I'm totally whoring for feedback, but that's OK, because I am. There's no point in hiding it, you can all see right through me and you always have.

Two people posted in my comments section that the second part of Plans didn't show up in their flists. So just in case you missed it and wanted to come and tell me what you thought about it and feed my insatiable craving for feedback, it's here.

And now a public service announcement, to justify this otherwise totally gratuitous act of whoredom: I'm screening films that will be in the SF Gay Film Festival, and there are two documentaries on crystal meth addiction in the gay male community and I just want to say that you should really not get addicted to crystal, kthnx.

And yeah, part 3, it's coming. It has five sex scenes in it so far, I think that's too many. I'm going to have to take some out.
 
 
Current Mood: shameless
Current Music: One Step Closer, Gabriel & Dresden
Current Location: San Francisco, where else would I be?

I think I left you some long-ass, rambling, incomprehensible feedback about part 2 last night, and therefore know that the 2nd part showed up for me, umm, I think maybe I need to go back and check. Actually, maybe I need to go back and re-read the whole thing, just for friend-list quality assurance. Yeah, uh, that's it.

Yeah, you did, it was great, I loved it and thank you!

And don't get addicted to crystal, ok? Really! Promise me!

ROFL... awww, just checking to see if you were paying attention. The third chapter is going to be almost twice as long as either of the previous parts, so it can fit in a bit more sex.

Actually, there's always room for more sex, right?

And if not, I'll yank the scenes and publish them as PWP.

Oh, I'm always paying attention, otherwise, I wouldn't be very successful at all my endeavors. ;)

oh and 3x as long is very very exciting!

if it's b/j sex, then it's, like, against the LAW the take some out. if you do, then the gay sex police will show up at your door and they will ARREST you and chain you up in a DUNGEON where there will be RATS and COCKROACHES, not a prison, because a prison is too nice for people to DELETE B/J SEX SCENES from fic. oh, and the gay sex police will NOT be HOT, but rather old, sweaty, balding, hairy, fat men who HAVEN'T BATHED or BRUSHED THEIR TEETH in SIX YEARS. just so's y'know. *nods sagely*

Of COURSE it's B/J sex, are you fucking insane? What else would it be??

Actually, I'm writing a Lindsay/Mel sex scene but no one is going to see it but my lesbianic beta. Or maybe I'll publish it just for anyone who wants to see it. As an alternate version or something.

But Lindsay gets spanked which considering how many of you hate her, might work for you.

On the other hand, Lindsay likes it, so never mind.

I might have to delete this comment. Too much information.

Mel spanking Lindz? Don't you DARE cutting this scene!

Purists can fast forward, but I want it, damn it.

I would do ANYTHING for you, you know that.

You'll see it. I think I'll just publish two versions of the story, one with and one without the hot girl on girl action. People can read whichever one they want.

Either that or I'll just share it with you. It will depend on what you think about it when you beta it.

I am an attorney and I can verify that this is true in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Gaum, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. In fact, taking out B/J sex scenes is also a federal crime, under powers granted to Congress through the commerce clause, and probably violates some international treaties as well.

Oh well in that case I won't.

Let me be perfectly clear: I would read a story that was literally fifty thousand B/J sex scenes strung together without any plot whatsoever. I was KIDDING when I said five was too many. Just teasing. Lying. Whatever.

It won't happen.

Is six too many?

I would read that story too, go see the movie it was made into & then buy the DVD of it. So, NO, I don't think six is too many!

Amen.

It has five sex scenes in it so far, I think that's too many. I'm going to have to take some out.

Do it, and I'll hunt you down and tell everyone you're straight. *WEG*

You have the most accomodating ethical framework. I like that.

ethics shmethics, make with the hot sex.

seriously, my ethical framework is very accomodating, it allows for bizarre littleboy!justin apanking scens in the middle of a fic about them building a relathinship as equals and somehow only seems vaugly OOC...

it's all in the details....

okay, actually, it's in making the scene hot enough that people forget about the detail for a little bit...

some don't and then i get to hear about how OOC my justin and brian are, but um...

whatever. i've taken a very ashlieghkinners approach to that sort of feedback (no, i dont' decide everyone who doesn't like my porn is a nazi) i've just decided that those who do are the ones i'll listen to.

then i listen when THEY don't like something as well, and this has now become a useless rant about something that happened last week so i'll shut up.

keep the sex IN. and out. and in again. and dammit... write the thing bitch.

FYI, it did show up on my f-list, but not at the time. It wasn't until someone I had rec'd the fic to said they'd loved both parts, and I went back through my f-list, that I found it there. I had seen all of the adjacent posts in a timely fashion, but yours hadn't been there then. Odd.

And don't you dare! even consider removing those scenes! Joke not funny Xie. Not funny at all. ;)

Looking forward to part 3. You're fucking brilliant.

Is the Gay Film Festival this month because of Pride? (which I cannot wait for, BTW!)

Any movies worth seeing?

[identity profile] xie-xie-xie.livejournal.com on June 14th, 2006 04:49 am (UTC)
Yes, this is the 30th film festival... amazing, really!

I haven't seen too many of the movies yet. I just got a documentary about George Michael, the two crystal meth documenataries, a feature from Iceland called "Eleven Men Out" that sounds extremely good, Margaret Cho's new movie "Celeste and Bam Bam" which sounds fantastic, documentary on the fight for marriage equality in MA called "Saving Marriage," which also sounds good, a documenatary called "The Saint of 9/11" which doesn't appeal to me but I won't judge it without seeing it, a rough cut of "The Kinsey Sicks: I Wanna Be a Republican," which I have NO idea what it is but sounds totally intriguing, and oh, a bunch more. And I think I'd better watch them NOW, because there are only so many hours in a day, LOL, and the festival starts Saturday night!

And I LOVE your icon!

At your peril, missy, at your peril. And if it's really hampering the story, you gotta provide them as deleted scenes, a la Plum, or something. ;-)
