Looks like we've both been trumped, Gypsy Lantern.

No. These are just ripples echoing back. When you release so potently wrong an idea into reality, time itself starts to bend around the concept. It's already started writing itself into past events. "Doctor Screw" didn't exist until I allowed the idea to leak out at the weekend. Soon we will start to believe that Doctor Who hardcore has always been around. It's all happening too fast. Even this post has the faint air of Whoerotica about it.

Shit! I just got a text from an anonymous caller, and the time and date says it was sent on 14 August 2456... The caller says that they want to tie me up with their long scarf and forcefeed me jellybabies!

Hold on a minute. There's a weird whirring sound coming from outside. I'll just go an investigate. Be back in a second.

I would advise you to consider how you would feel about your employers at your day job, your collegues and your relatives (male and female) might react.

Not that you should feel bound by their opinions necessarily, but these are the people who you have relationships with and these relationships will probably be affected by your choice of second career. Are you planning on telling people outright? Or are you just hopping that no-one you know decides to log on to your site? Have you thought about how best to ensure your safety from any of your fans that might get obsessive?

I don't have a problem with this seeing as I'm not watching them do it.

what's this line about for you?

So, let me see if I got this straigh: the difference between erotica and pornography is that people masturbate to the latter and not to the former?

There's a whole thread on this in the Head Shop. The short version is that there isn't a straight line division, but rather allocation is affected by many different factors in the creator and the viewer.

Although while we're in Conversation, I'd offer the definition that people masturbate to both, but for erotica they wear ruffs.

So, the really short version is "We don't know, realy"...
Personally, I always defined the difference simply as "Erotica is classier", but, hey, I'm not exactly a "reliable source". I'll take a look at the thread on HS, if I can find it.

I have been too busy this weekend to think about sex. Believe it or not, I've been locked in a mind-loop, trying to figure out which Doctor incarnation is the coolest (Why, o why, must Doc-Nine leave us???). Plus, I've been breeding some flu viruses, and it's hard to think about sex when your throat is so sored you can barely swallow (pun intended). I'll come back to my usual horny self as soon as possible.

DM, Evil Scientist gave you that virus for a reason. (only kidding, hope you get better soon)>

Wow. The Internet ate my entire last post. Weird.

xk: No issues with the pictures being used as a masturbatory aid. Truth be told, it does arouse me to think of mine being used for such a purpose.

Gyspy Lantern: The fabric of time and space have been altered. Just this once everyone gets off!

sleaze: I do not plan on telling my family. I would prefer to keep this side of my life as private as possible. A feat, I know, considering where I plan to post them.

Dead Megatron

20:11 / 14.08.06

Well, that would explain why those damn viruswa seem immune against any kind of treatment, from the most ancient Chinese traditional medicine to good old alopatic overdosage.

Damn you Evil Scientist! You shall pay for this!

sleaze: I do not plan on telling my family. I would prefer to keep this side of my life as private as possible.

Well, I haven't led a secret double life as a fetish model for ages, but a tip would be: don't tell your friends, and especially don't tell friends whose reaction to the hypothetical was negative, because they will tell other people. If you already have, make sure that they are sworn to secrecy. It probably won't work, but at least you can get good and pissed off when they tell their friends. If you haven't told them where you're going to do thus, don't. If they bring it up, you might want to wave your hand in the air and make some comment about the crazy ideas you get when you're short on the rent, or something to that effect.

Haus, aside from you lot, none of my circle knows. I may tell my two best mates, but I'd rather see how this plays out first before saying anything. This "side career" still allows for a certain interesting measure of anonymity. I get to choose a whole new name and the like.

I do like your idea of dismissing them as crazy.

Friend: "I heard this really weird rumor..."

Me: "Well, you know what they say about rumors. Hey, did I mention that I saw you kissing someone other than your boyfriend last night?"

Friend: "I didn't believe the rumor."

Me: "Good girl."

Excellent, excellent. My next bit of advice would be to have a bit of a think about how you identify or don't identify yourself. For example, would this service have a profile section? Does that profile section have a place for a name, a location, an age, stuff like that?

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

20:55 / 14.08.06

Kali, I wish you the best of luck in this endeavour, but I think what I'd say (and what would probably summarise most of Haus's posts quite neatly too, though it may not- I'm pissed, and also quite blatantly not Haus)- and bear in mind, this is not a phrase I use often- would be "What Flyboy said" way back on page 1.

Sounds like a great idea, but... you might wanna at least consider the idea of being a bit, y'know, "careful" about the whole thing.

Kali, Queen of Kitteh

20:59 / 14.08.06

There is no profile section. Nothing tells a single word about my location, etc. Which is precisely why I chose it.

Thanks for your concern, Haus and Stoatie.

Excellent. One final suggestion - don't call yourself Kali. But you were probably already there.

Kali.....

I have something......

It's a bit specialist......

Would you do this for me?

Kali, Queen of Kitteh

13:21 / 15.08.06

Haus, you knew that I wouldn't call myself by my favorite name. Silly.

And iamus, of course!!!

sorry to rain on the parade, but Dr Who pron is ooooold. Jo Grant (Katy Manning), the ditzy companion was in a nude shoot with Daleks in the 70's. It was an Australian magazine, but the piccies are available here. WARNING, naked lady in pictures, mildly NSFW.

that said, i'm sure you could make money with new Dr Who porn...

once you've set up your site, make sure you send a few piccies to Warren Ellis. He's always promoting semi-naked starving artists on his website, I'm sure he'd do the same for you...

Kali, Queen of Kitteh

Nothing quite like an endorsement from Warren Ellis, I imagine.

And I was talking about doing new Who erotica. A concept I still can't believe I find myself plotting.
