and tax return done
Jan. 22nd, 2012 12:49 pmThe UK tax return, that is. The US one still awaits me...
Since the filing cabinet's getting a bit full, I thought I'd do a bit of a weed on the older files in there. That includes ancient market guidelines from ten years ago, when I was amusing myself with the erotica short story markets. And yes, I do mean actual porn here in some cases, although some of the niche fetish markets tended to be oddly sweet in their way. I always meant to try some of those as a writing exercise, but of course once I found a market for the novellas and short novels that are my natural length, that's what I focused on.
Just looked up one of those niche fetish markets. It's long gone, which is a shame, because I'm pretty sure that's one where even though it's not my kink (or even gender orientation), I still enjoyed the art and stories as art. The site url is still there, but now it's your bog-standard porn cumshot site, and if the original site content was ever archived I can't find it. Of course, the markets newsletter where I found it in the first place has also gone the same way, although at least there the archive still exists. Such is the way of the web.
