Every now and then, I'm reminded that Samuel R. Delany was emphatic that he not be pigeonholed as "just" a sci-fi writer... because dagnabbit, he wanted the world to know he wrote erotica, too. π

Write what you need to.
Write what feeds the weird in you.
Write what keeps you here.
And who knows?
If you find the right reader, it might keep them here, too.
