@mistergav We had some kind of weird Wordpress hack happen that maxed out the usage. The hosts weren't any help so I've backed it up and using the opportunity to update the website somewhere better.

@EiTimot @saagelius with the .adult version of SubscribeStar, they actively welcome (legal) NSFW content. It's the purpose of the service. Patreon already have a history of banning NSFW creators and despite it being quiet for a while, it's seemingly getting bad again.

[James Hardcourt @edgingspace]

@saagelius It's worked well for me. I've been using one for over two years and they pay promptly, it works smoothly. It's not feature packed and I don't expect it to have much added functionality in future, but it works, and it's the safest space for NSFW content I've found for sure.

@michaelhogan I'm assuming there was a contractual obligation to do another show... There can't be another reason they got him singing!

As others have rightly said, it's copyright the moment you write it. However one trick I use is to upload my books, just as docs, to KDP before I send to anyone outside my editor and alpha readers. That way they have it in their system if anyone tries to claim it's theirs.

There needs to be some sort of fetish or D/s greating card website out there. Happy Locktober cards or Thank You for destroying my penis cards. You know, wholesome keepsakes and all.

@ABeworte I include instructions in my backmatter on how to make your Amazon review anonymous. That really seems to help boost those who are prepared to leave them.

In our next episode of All The Filthy Details - we’re giving our Patreon’s the floor to contribute to the show. Only a few rose to the challenge. At the end of the month we’ll see what delights they bring. #erotica #eroticaauthors best value Patreon ever

[James Hardcourt @edgingspace]

@FilthyAll Certainly interested!

[James Hardcourt @edgingspace]

To the Australian who bought every one of my Kink by the Numbers series, only to return each one after reading them. Try the first book for 99c, don't like it? Fine, return it. The whole series? You're harming hard working, independent authors. Amazon is not a library. Stop it.

[Anya Knightly @anya_knightly]

I love the little bits of real life that make their way into my erotica. I’m that person always looking around at my neighbors and wondering what their sex life is like. Sometimes I overhear a conversation or notice a particular interaction or outfit and bam, I’m writing smut.

What #edging zone are you in? #orgasmdenial (graphic from @edgingspace )

[James Hardcourt @edgingspace]

@FilthyAll It wasn't banned, but the first was 'dungeoned' by Amazon but the second wasn't.

@Tumblrsupport My decade old author account keeps getting auto-terminated, despite me being careful about what I post. I'm still getting billed for the ads-free service when I can't even access my account. 3 weeks -no response from support. Please help! https://t.co/ZEO6DrMQ6l

[James Hardcourt @edgingspace]

@tumblr It's bad enough my account has been auto-terminated (and restored) ten times in the last year. But the fact you're still billing me for ad-free browsing when I can't even access it, is adding insult to injury. No reply from support. Can you please help?

@FilthyAll The first in my five part 'educational erotica' series, Kink by the Numbers. Book 5 went live yesterday. Thanks for the chance to get it reviewed! https://t.co/Rano6zPkSV

[James Hardcourt @edgingspace]

Five by Five is out today, and it's already hit #1 on Amazon's UK Hot New Releases category chart. Thanks for all the support, especially while my Tumblr is still down! https://t.co/HlHXnvXZvO

Check out The Essence Vault, amazing copies of the big brands at a price you can try a bunch to see what you like. The Aventus and Oud Wood intense versions are my favourite.

Anyone want to recommend me a cologne / scent for men that isn't *wildly* expensive? Considering mixing it up, cologne-wise.

[James Hardcourt @edgingspace]

Head’s up, self-reblogs incoming For some reason, searching my blog for something threw up a ton of really good old posts. We’ve got tens of thousands of new followers since I wrote most of these, so I’m picking some of my favourites to share... https://t.co/JJ7rEujOhy
