I work for a moderate size American publisher.
It's good, but pretty draining. I don't read manuscripts anymore, but I did for two years and it was exhausting. Seriously 99% or more is absolute shit.

Are you the dragon sex anon?
>>7600061
Nope, just a small head haha

There's a dragon sex anon?
>>7600647
There is, a few years back there was anon who was working for publisher and was nervous about proposing a high fantasy novel which whilst well written had the taboo of inter species romance as an important part in it.

That seems like a silly thing to worry about for a number of reasons. First of all, Stephen King got away with a child sex orgy and with having a black woman counter-rape a demon as part of a banishing ritual. Second of all, dragons fuck people in mythology constantly. CONSTANTLY. Third of all, there's a large market for that particular fetish, myself included. So only an idiot publisher would turn down a story for that reason.

Yeah but this guy was an unknown author. I do recall him saying that his boss was interested in it, but ive yet to see anything else come of it unfortunately. One of the reasons why I keep an eye out for publisher threads
That's David Byrne of the Talking Heads you fucksticks.
Btw: Stop Making Sense is one of the greatest recorded live performances ever.
For fucks sake... Just... Stop buying Slipknot records.. I mean... Goddamn

I remember a short story that was literally all about humans fetishizing alien species even though fucking them came at great detriment to their own well-being.
