I thought that I might try it as a means of getting published. Anyone have input on it?

No, not heard of it, but bumping in case anyone else is familiar.

This is the site where Carmenica's published.

Yes - Carmenica Diaz

Yeah, she does that cross-dressing and femdom stuff, often with cuckolding. Not to my taste, with the exception of Krystal (for some odd reason, probably tied to prostitution) and the Humiliation of Claudia (a girl-girl bondage theme, which is the one kind of femdom that I DO like). Even so, she seems smart and writes well.

Faint praise but I'll accept it. Luckily I don't write for you but for my readers.
Kryztal has an element of prostitution but is mainly M/f.
Cafe Boudoir is good but selective - has a few quality authors rather than lots. It works very well for me and I sell many books through it.

Try it.

You wouldn't like my BDSM-flavoured stuff.

I wouldn't bother explaining - he hasn't a clue. If he calls Transgender novels "cross-dressing" he is rather ignorant about the genre.

Which is fine; I'm totally ignorant of the incest category and choose to remain that way!

That's okay. Not everyone's stuff is going to be to my taste. I can live with that, just as I can live with my stuff not being to everyone's.

And I was just assuming that it wasn't transsexual. I guess that I was wrong about that. As a matter of fact, I have written some tranny stuff myself (Matchmaking Trap- Chapters 3 and 4).

Regarding what Ms. Diaz said about "faint praise", well, I prefer to emphasize the positive rather than the negative, even if it comes out as "faint praise". Of course, there are some writers who have no positive. I generally avoid reading their stuff.

And you SHOULD write for your readers, not for cantankerous German-American aristocrats with a strong preference for male dom, orgies, and incest (i.e. me).

And thanks for the encouragement. I hope that they like my stuff well enough.

And, yes, I noticed the rather cruel streak that comes out in her husband. I mentioned prostitution because it struck more in my mind as something that I don't see as much.
