Literary Resources
Resources for the writer and researcher on-line.
Resources
for Writers and Writing Instructors
More academically-oriented, this site still has a lot of valuable information.
Library
of Congress Home Page
Find any book published in the U.S.
Research
It!
One of my favorite pages. On-line dictionary, thesaurus, translator, computer
terms, etc., etc.
Writer's Resource
Center
Lots of links for the aspiring literary master.
Erotica On-Line
Erotica on the Internet usually consists of endless banner ads and
pay-to-play sites with little content and less intelligence. Here's some
of the better ones.
Darklady
Another old friend, Darklady has had a varied career as a freelance
writer and reviews adult movies for AVN. Check out her page for some cool
stuff.
Annie
Sprinkle Gates of Heck Page
Sex goddess and guru Annie Sprinkle has some cool stuff here, as well as your
chance to help her recover from a disastrous fire that destroyed most of her
worldly possessions.
AVN Online
Well, Darklady has stuff here, and there's
lotsa interesting information about adult movies and websites, so I'm sure
you'll find it quite enlightening.
Grey
Archive
A vast archive of erotic stories including slash and fan fic, but also with
much original material. This one's been growing for many years and it's good
to see that it's still on-line.
Naked
Blades
The definitive fantasy erotica page, this site has moved to a new and
vastly superior server without popups or annoying ads. I'm delighted to
see 'em back on the Internet, and hope that their association with this
new site is a long and happy one. There are some huge stories archived
here, and well worth the download time!
Blue Blood
Given that Blue Blood bounced one of my stories with a rather nasty
rejection letter many years ago, I'm still bound and determined to prove what
a swell guy I am by linking to them. Check 'em out -- hot goth pictorials,
articles, humor and other fun stuff. Maybe I'll try writing for them again
one of these days now that they've thoroughly forgotten me. Oh yeah, also
check out their affiliated site, Gothic
Sluts. Hot goth babes getting naked and doing sick things. Who can ask
for more?
Scarlet
Letters
Erotica for women and, one hopes, for men who know how to behave themselves.
One of the best sites of this sort that I've ever seen.
Raul's Sexy
Females
This guy is one of the finest pin-up artists on the Internet. Check it out
-- these are some of the hottest slices of cheesecake out there. I've asked
if I can commission any art from him, but he's understandably busy. My god,
that May 4th evil Jedi babe... Yowza...
(By the way, it has not escaped my notice that he refers to his hot sorceress
babe as "Necrotia." Hmmm)
Nakkidnerds.com
Yeah, it's a paysite, but that's okay... the gals here are cute, articulate
and, above all else, real. (Oh, yeah... I don't get any kickbacks for directing
folks to pay sites... I just think they're cool.)
Suicidegirls.com
Here's a rarity... a cool erotic website that originated in my hometown of
Portland, OR. I joined since it's so bloody cheap, and hell, there's always
the possibility that I might run into one of these young women down at Pioneer
Courthouse Square and suavely say... "Uhhh.... uh... uh... hi... Are you the...
the... you know... on that web site... Uh... you're cute... You know that
I'm only 40?" And when that day does arrive, I will make sure and post at
least one journal entry from prison...
Ropelover.com
What can I say about Bridgett? She's become one of my closest and most beloved
friends, and she brings a rare sense of intellectualism, philosophy, surrealism
and -- to my mind most importantly -- humor to the world of erotica, bondage
and porn. She's a photographer, a poet, an artist, a performer, and so many
other things. This is her site, spotlighting her work in photography, erotica
and specifically suspension bondage, but there's much to look at here. And
oh, yeah -- I'm one of the photographers, so enjoy!
Wickedtouch.com
This business is run by a dear friend of mine and her partner, and provides
both familiar and exotic adult playthings. She's easily one of the most intelligent
and attractive women I've ever met, and I'm more than happy to provide her
and her partner with some free advertising. If you're in the market for intimate
items for that special occasion, or that special someone, please check 'em
out and throw Wickedtouch.com your business if what they're selling tickles
your fancy.
Fun Stuff
Stuff I like. This should give you some idea of what a nutcase you're dealing
with...
The
Evil Overlord List
Why is it that aspiring evil overlords always make the same mistakes over
and over again? Well, this site tries to set that right, beginning with "When
I am evil overlord, my ventilation shafts will be too small to crawl through,"
and going on from there. Follow these simple guidelines, and world domination
will be a snap!
Gothic
Babe of the Week
More of the above, this time with pale-skinned, black-wearing pretentious
poetry-spouting gothchicks, some of whom are knockouts and some of whom are...
well... scary (but then that's the idea, isn't it?). Some of 'em actually
look cute posing in front of wrought-iron cemetery fences. "In Darkness My
Heart Was Won." Jesus H. Christ, who writes this crap? (Probably taken from
the Goth
Quote Generator, actually.) Better enjoy the Goth culture in a hurry...
It's almost out of style...
Note: I've since discovered that the line is actually a quote from Dead Can Dance, who are quite popular with the intellectualist goth set...
The Onion
America's number one satirical newspaper, with some of the most viciously
funny stuff I've read in years. Better than the late lamented National
Lampoon, even.
