- i believe that erotica is an overused form of art these days. if you truly
- consider yourself a writer of erotica, keep a lid on it for a few years until
- this madonna bullshit dies down. remember that de sade and nin came long
- before you, and that every other self-posessed artiste considers themselves
- at one point or another a purveyor of 'erotica'. if you are true, your style
- will shine through, but not while there are too many other false diamonds
- glittering.
