Goodbye, Neighbor

I was really bummed to hear on the radio this morning that Mr. Rogers has died. Like many of my generation, Mr. Roger's Neighborhood was a staple of my childhood viewing. It was a place where imagiantion was king, and every child was special. A Presbyterian minister, Fred Rogers served as a true example of the Golden Rule: Love your neighbor as you love yourself.

Would that more people in our world lived by that simple creed.

Let Girls be Girls

We stayed up last night to watch Tatu on Jay Leno. They sang their (annoyingly catchy) hit "All the Things She Said," which is a song about two teenage girls in love. During the instrumental bridge the girls presumably make out on stage. I say presumably because during the bridge the show only showed us the band members playing their instruments. Thus we're all cheated out of watching a couple of attractive young Russian Women kissing on national tv.

Yes, I know that their whole 'lesbian lotita' thing is just an act, designed to titlate us into paying attention to a mediocre girl pop duo. But dammit, I wanted to be titilated! Had the Tonight Show producers not seen Tatu's stage act? Do they thing that those of us up watching television after midnight can't handle the sight of two girls sucking face? This is the silliest bit of musical television censorship since Elvis was shot from the waist up.

On the plus side, earlier in the evening we finally got to see Willow and Kennedy get in some serious smootching on Buffy (made all the better by the very funny voice over from Andrew swooning over Xander's carpentry work). Yes, it sucked to lose Tara, but I'm very happy to see that Willow is finally moving on.

Story Recommendation

I just got through reading a story, "A Little Bit of Kink" by Gina R. I'm not normally much into BDSM stories, but this was so well written that it couldn't help but get me hot. Right from the opening paragraph it sucked me right in and kept me going until the end. So if you're looking to read a little lesbian kinkiness, give Gina's story a try. (And be sure to write her if you enjoy the story and let her know--good writers need encouragement!)

Spam

I find myself often amused by the spam that comes to my HotMail account. The only places I use the address are on this Website and in my story posts, which means that the spam I get is completely related to my activity regarding sex stories.

A great number of the ads assume that I have a penis: "Kelly_h_adams Grow your Penis safely and naturally," and "Stretch that johnson now and forever..." This knowledge will come as a great surpise to both my gynecologist and my girlfriend! I guess I'm not so offended by the assumotion that I have a penis as I am about the assumption that it is small. There are also plenty of ads about dating services. The assumption must be that anyone who engages in reading and writing sex stories must be a lonely man with a small dick.

Then there are the ads that are completely unrelated to sex: credit cards, life insurance, magazine subscriptions, and a lot of ads for inkjet cartridges. Apparently I print out a lot of the stories too!

This is all to say that the amount of spam I get vastly outweighs any actual fanmail that I receive. So hey, if you read one of my stories and like it, drop me a line. I promise that I won't put your name on any spam list :)

We're Back

After a few days of being down, our host site--ASSTR--is back up and running. Yay!

Let's see, now that I went on a publishing frenzy with 3 new stories in January, it's time to think about writing something again. I've got a Walnut Grove story that I started a few months ago that needs finishing, featuring two new girls whose lives intersect with Hilary's in an intersting way. In the thinking out stage are a couple other WG stories: the conclusion of the Ginny Trilogy, and a longish "Halloween in Walnut Grove". Time and muses willing I'll get to those three sometime in 2003.

Then there are the started-but-never-finished epics: The Book, Calendar Girls, and Essence of Gabrielle. Perhaps one will get worked on this year as well?

And finally, I plan on writing one final Bedtime Story, bringing the set up to an even 20. Just as soon as I get a good angle for it.

Another Review

Crimson Dragon has posted a review of "Happy Birthday, Madison!" She says:

This is a fun story. Kelly has a knack for describing female-female
sex that I like. I can't really explain it. I'm usually not one for
heavy sexual description, but while this is almost certainly more
stroke than not, there is a story there and the characters are
likeable.

Fairwater Heights

Enough about me, let's talk about other people :)

I just this morning read Serene Cherry's new story, "Fairwater Heights." It's beautiful, touching, romantic, and a bit sad. It's the kind of story that makes you want to
immediately find your loved one and hold her close. You won't find much sex--and none of it explicit--but you will find genuine emotion.
