skeevy assholes on Facebook

I've been posting erotica on the EMCSA for about eleven years, and in all that time, I've been hit on exactly twice. I've been posting on Facebook for about a month, and I've been hit on three times. What the fuck? Just because I write erotica, that doesn't mean I'm into cybersex.

Everyone who's commented here has been polite and respectful of boundaries, so this seems like a good place to gripe.

Only three times in a month?

I think I want to leave my Internet and move to yours.

I'm guessing its a matter of page traffic. Facebook gets a lot more people going through in a short time and they see that you write erotica and well more people more chance of the person willing to make the attempt.

If I might ask something that is off topic. Do you have plans for your next book? I just ask because I'm curious if your just planning another ebook form of one already online or if you are planning to write a new story.

Yeah, I suppose you two are right. It's funny, though. When I first started posting erotica on the EMCSA, I *expected* to get hit on, and I didn't. So then I began to take it for granted that people would treat me decently. So the Facebook shit was like a slap in the face. But you're right: things move more quickly there, and you get more interaction with strangers.

K, I want to keep writing new stuff (and in fact I'm working on a collaboration right now, but it's too soon to say much about that), but right now I'm focused mainly on e-books. Next on the block will be a nicely polished "Willing Subject" with a cover that'll make you drool. ;-)

I believe the following link is appropriate:

That is *very* appropriate...and also very funny.

Fortunately, I haven't been hit on anymore (unless you count the loony who begged me to hypnotize him). It must have something to do with the fact that I posted the same image you see in this post at the top of my Facebook album. ;-P
