Am cunningly trading on the current mania for rude stories to revive and flog a lot of my own old stuff. And was just having a flick through the one that's going up as an Ebook, and one of the sodding characters has the surname Grey, and he's a Nice male dom as opposed to the villainous one (who gets what he deserves later on).
SHould I do a quick find-change on the document and turm him into Mr Smith instead?

Yes! But not Smith. Something more exotic.

Oooooo got it how about:

Mr Kane

Grrr. It's not the hero but it is a good-looking American dominant bloke, a minor but still important character. I wrote the thing 3 years ago....

Mind you, maybe I could big it up on Ebay as 'Features Mr Grey!' and get sued to fuck, only I shouldn't because EL Jones didn't when her dimwit book is a rip-off of Twishite anyway

Aaargh, I can't call him Mr Kane because I actually know a bloke whose surname is Kane and he would eat me alive!!!!

Gordon Brown would be a nice name for a dom. :)

Solidgold didn't the author of Shades write Twishite? Not sure, just what I have heard...

Trills · 22/07/2012 10:18

olives - she originally wrote it as Twilight Fanfiction.

e.g. "I like this book but it would be better if he was a billionaire who liked spanking so I'm going to rewrite it".
