Hello, everybody. I'm afraid the time has come for me to stop accepting review copies from authors. Readers, rest easy. I'm NOT going to stop writing reviews. From here on, I'll be acquiring my m/m fiction myself (that is, buying it), and I'll keep posting reviews on a regular basis.  However, in order to keep my schedule in balance, I've decided to stop accepting review copies from individual authors.

I am very grateful for the fabulous fiction I've received from everybody during the past two years – it has paved the way for my website and blog, and has given me a wonderful introduction to what the m/m fiction genre is all about. I've read some truly outstanding fiction. 

The upside is that I'll still be reviewing (though not on request), and – while my own schedule might not line up with everybody's release dates – my purchases will definitely be adding to everybody's revenue, ha, ha! (I've got a couple more reviews that I promised people that I would do, and those are still forthcoming.) Thanks, everyone, for your understanding!

Oh, also, I'll be dropping off the blogosphere for about a week while I wrap up some other projects.  So I won't be checking my LiveJournal until then.  See you all in about a week!

1. Can a term such as "built like a brick shithouse" be even remotely considered a compliment?
   
2. What is the ideal physique for a special-ops soldier?
   
3. Why does the word "svelte" have such a weird connotation? Or does it? Maybe it's just me?

Advise for newcomers in the m/m field based on some strange behavior I've been hearing about.

M/M writers, those with blogs and websites (all of us, right?) might wonder, what is content theft and how do I fight it?
