and another revision pass done

The novelette now has a not-sucky title courtesy of Watervole, comments from one of my betas, and more wordage as a result of the comments. It is in fact now a novella, having crept past 20,000 words this evening. Revised draft has gone off to two of the betas for further comments. There may yet be another round of revising, at which point someone else can look forward to it arriving in their inbox in search of a fresh pair of eyes.

Shall reconsider the market list when I think I've got the thing pinned down to a submission draft. But it's not really getting any less vanilla or low-conflict, even if it's getting longer. It's got more lovingly drawn word pictures of cocks, though. (Yes, I've been reading too much Oglaf today.)
