And another sale

I posted the contract for my latest sale back to Loose Id yesterday. 25,000 word novella, m/m erotic romance sf, and likely to be the first of a series. This one's been interesting--I hadn't intended to submit it to Loose Id because one scene broke one of their (very few) content taboos. I sent it to my editor anyway for her own private amusement, because she'd been interested when I'd discussed it at an online chat. She wanted it... The problem scene has had to be revised, which was a tricky job because it's there for plot/character development purposes, not titillation. I couldn't just cut it. Rewriting 350 words so that the content is acceptable but the scene still serves its original purpose in the story is one of the hardest revision jobs I've ever done.
