Funny: 3 Erotic: 0

So I have been blogging for about three weeks, and I look at my responses. I am surprised by a couple of things: (1) lots of women respond, (2) I get far more responses from funny pieces than other works, and (3) people actually read this drivel.

Henry Davis Thoreau (or whatever his name was, I tend not to look things up, it takes time and no one cares enough to check anyway) wrote his first novel “On Golden Pond”, had 2,000 copies printed, and could barely sell any of them. Even when they made it to a movie staring the father-daughter Fonda’s they couldn’t move the book off the shelves. Well, Mr. Thoreau learned from his haphazard writing, re-wrote his second book about a hundred times, and then came out with Walden. It sold millions, but he got two goats, some old cheese and pickled pig’s feet (warning: get a trusted publicist or this could happen to you – dying poor, with millions of high schooler’s cursing your soul). Crap, I am off base again. What I am trying to say is that people used to really work to have their product’s read. Now it takes an Internet connection (cost: $0 thanks to public libraries, and librarians are fighting for free access to porn as we speak) and a few minutes between porn sites. Editor’s note: porn is evil, and if it wasn’t worth tens of billions to the US economy, should be eliminated.

My main reason for blogging was for others to read my erotic fiction. But I look at what people respond to, and it is not erotic at all. It is me making fun of stuff. Quasi-comedy. Not real comedy – there are lots of funny “blogists” out there. Click onto some of my links and you will see them. Giggle-fest, hope you don’t pee in your panties kind of funny.

I guess the quick notes are easier to digest. They are certainly easier to write. Sort of like a quickie. Once you get over the fact that your man basically just wants to shoot his load into his favorite sperm receptacle once in a while. Not that he doesn’t love the other stuff, but “lift the dress, fill the hole, zip up the pants” is sometimes all that is necessary. And as long as you understand that, it makes the quickies easier to understand. Same thing about these posts – just a quick note, and that’s okay. I love writing the stories – they are like marathon love-making sessions. These are the quickies of the blog post to me.

I’ll bend over if folks want that every once in a while.

I've not read anything but your posts here, but I look forward to reading your posts. You're on my favorites, because I do enjoy your humor. I'll have to check into your erotica.

it is your erotica that drew me to your site leesa, the other writins, the musings, perceptions add to your allure..i found you by searching writing erotica...true that many men are looking for a "sperm receptacle". there are those of us who enjoy passion unbridled, slow simmering exploration of mind and body, romance mingled with lust.
for me, the southern man, it is the lure of interaction without complications, befriending with boundaries. whatever the reasons, seems most in this cyber world sharing on your site are decent and intriguing......"drama be damned" you do inspire!

I think hit the nail on the Head L. I couldn't have said it better. I get a lot more responses to my ridiculous Random Thoughts than anything on a more serious subject. Well anyway you know I love your blog no matter what you write!

Godzilla said...

Having just read some of the erotica, I'd say that was a strong suit for you too.

Muse said...

I read it all, and like it all. ;)

hernesto g: I have no idea what you did in your pants. Sounds like an English thing to me.

ken: I think people may read the erotica but comment on the fluff.

ddot: I have noticed that about your site as well. Your humor is great, and I do appreciate the race-related and political posts. Your race-related posts get lots of comments as well, by the way. I need to stop by today and see if you mentioned Brown's latest Congressional testimony. And we are paying him as a consultant still.

others: I am such an attention whore. Thanks for the comments.

VX: your blog makes total sense. I love your sense of humor - sort of hate that you are in such good shape (the catty side of me, I guess).

Actually, I have to go back and see if you have described what a tag is. All foreign words to me.

I love your blog too Leesa. They are funny and true. I read you blog everyday, I just don't post everyday. But I agree with you, I do like the more entertaining ones and your stories.

I for one am a big fan of quickies (and not just blogs) - does that make me weird?

Leesa said...

brea: I used to really dislike quickies. I thought - if he gets his jollies off, I need to at least attempt to have an orgasm as well. My view is a bit different now, but it is more complex and may need a blog entry to explain.
