Dear Gods, it's a trend.

Sebastian Laurent does not approve.

Excerpt from yet another serial-numbers-filed-off porn fanfic published as a real book, this one called Beautiful Bastard.

The writing is pretty dire, for the most part. There's a few funny lines, but overall? As porn, it's lukewarm. As writing, it's meh.

Ladies, there's much better kink-lit out there.

Fifty Shades of Flapjacks

One of my RL friends is a guy named Yuri. He is a font of stories about a fairly interesting life with some really oddball living situations.

Unfortunately, he often forgets which stories he's already told to a given person. This results in some of his friends hearing a story they've heard a number of times before. Time and repetition have led to some of us using the oft-repeated phrase "This is not a new story, Yuri" in order to stave off the repetition of a story heard many times before.

This is not a new story.
