So I've been invited to join the Rhapsody: The Romance Lover's Book Club

I die of giggles. I'm well aware I write the slash equivalent of bodice rippers, but still.

What I really want to do is take some of these and see how to slash them.

Though seriously, all these Anita Blake rip offs X_x Can't people be a bit more creative? I mean seriously.


The ones that really make me want to slash them are the ones with all the Prince of Fire, Prince of Magic, The Leopard Prince, The Raven Prince...etc etc. Don't those sound like they'd be much better of slash? Yes, I thought so.

And the answer is no, so don't even fracking ask the question.

What question? O:-) The 'so, when are we going to see these spiffy Prince stories' question? *duck, run like hell!!!* ^__________^

Actually, I read a Bodice Ripper from one of my Mom's stash. And was very disapointed by it.

It was 'The Mermaid prince' Or something around those lines. The girl got him in the end, but I remember thinking.

'Fish lay eggs and spread their sperm on them. How they hell will this girl have babies with him if he's half fish? Better yet, how dose that work out? Is it painful? And the hell do the kids look like?'

I stopped reading my mom's books after that.....

I'd probably stop reading after that too.

I am reminded of one classic painting I saw involving a hot guy and a mermaid doing inappropriate things in the surf. When I first saw it, all I could think was "Are female mermaids equipped to handle human penises?"

You are not alone in the cracky thoughts.

Think of mer-people as half-dolphin instead of half fish and it gets a lot easier. >.> Of course, then your research for dolphin sex gets you really strange google results... x.x;;

Including the "dolphin sex" page where the guy goes into detail about how to have sex with a dolphin, I bet.

X___X I am never looking at the links Tygati sends me again.

When you find out that there are people who actually have sex with both male and female dolphins, and claim they 'love' so-mentioned dolphins, and even have a WEBSITE explaining how-to/how-not, THEN it gets strange.

Wait, you guys had the conversation without me. WHOOPS. :/

^^;;; Yeah. That website. *covers eyes* All I wanted was to figure out how Naefindan would have sex in mer-form. >.<;;;

My "friends" regularly send me the strangest, most twisted sites they can find on the internet. I have them to thank for showing me that.

Someone wrote Kingdom Hearts yaoi where Sora is in merman form. I kid you not. They even talked about how they almost sporked their eyes out doing the research on it.

Of course, I immediately had to read it. XD

So, when are you going to write them? Pretty, confused blindly, stupidly noble princes trying to free his kingdom from the regent's rule, a handsome mage that's the neighboring countries emperor that's come to help kick said regent's butt off the throne... XDD *runrunrun*

Slashing of romance books? Oh yes! Now what does that club of yours do exactly?

I've had a quick dip into romance novels when I was... 14, I think. Never again.

So, when can we expect the princes stories? *ducks flying objects*

I should take pictures of my collection sometime. o_O;; Or maybe just catalogue them for you to see. :P

Want any writers in particular to slash? >D

Hee. I won't ask (if only because I'm familiar with the temptation). But yeah, some of those sound thoroughly slashable.

Besides, I like to think your writing is rather more in-depth than bodice-rippers :)

I'm a member. *hangs head in shame*
I've got this odd obsession with books in hard cover, so I use the club to get my Emma Holly and Lora Leigh releases in that format.

When you say things like that I think you secretly want to write it cos you know your flist will bully you into it. ;)

It also sounds quite an awesome idea. XD!
