Dealing With It - On Creative Bed Death

hiddenmuseI'm feeling creatively dead right now. My desire to write has gone "kaput" and my libido is still waning, much to my dismay. (Yes, those that know me, you could throw me into a pit of Barenaked Ladies - and bare, naked ladies - and I'd have a hell of a time working up any desire to pounce anyone. Talk politics, music, work, books, etc., yes. Get fucked (and fuck others) senseless - not happening.)
Honestly, I think it may have something to do with that paucity of good smut available. The only current story going is that nevereverending Mary Sue epic (and it's like fanfic Kudzu - started with good intentions (I think), and now has grown out of control). Honestly, the ONLY author I know of that can write a story with almost 100 chapters & keep my interest is Tom Robbins. And he just rocks my world with his complex, out-there characters. :) And the writer of this particular Mary Sue wet dream ain't Tom Robbins. {![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

marysues ... but there's no way I'd subject any of them to this one - unless they want to farm through about 105 chapters of Mary Sue-ism at its masturbatory finest. Hell, even I gave up after Chapter 10.}
Anyways, to counteract the lack of decent smut - and the dreck populating the board - I've just started reading Kate Dominic's erotica collection Any Two People, Kissing. So far, it's a great book, with a variety of couplings and scenarios - a little bit of everything for everyone. The basic idea behind the book is simple, yet quite sexy when you think about it: "What's the hottest thing you've ever seen? Two people, kissing like they mean it." Yummy.
p.s. to Jody ... through the dearth of stories on the board, I've been reading stuff written months ago. Between KHR's story, "Anna Anastasia" and your story, "The Attraction", I may risk having the neighbors wondering about the noise coming from upstairs. :-x (thanks for giving me something to keep my dirty mind going!!)
