Help!

I have to write *two* bio notes this weekend -- preferably today.

Any suggestions beyond the very boring "I live in Oakland and have been published in x, y, and z"?

I like "Intro + Indication of Passion + Inspirational Call to Action." Something like that anyway.

A fine formula.

i've been owing you this

Lori Selke is a dandy queer who wants to turn your perv upside down. The editor of Tough Girls, Literotica and the 6th edition of The Black Book – she knows what words turn up the heat in a room and people I hope you wore layers. She’s published stories like “Cocksucker,” “Dead Nude Girls,” “Ruth, Roses and Revolers,” and “The Collar” in places like Fishnet, Strange Horizons, Best Lesbian Erotica, and Best S/M Erotica. She’s written for your favorite publications like Curve, Girlfriends, LesbiaNation and so so so much more. She’s originally from the Midwest and is happy to have long ago traded in the Rust Belt for the Leather harnesses of the Bay Area.

Doncha wish your girlfriend was dandy like me.

You *wish*.

But it's true, I'm more dapper than dandy.

Chanteuse is a nifty word, as is vermicelli.

I like Cindy's, but what I was thinking was something along the lines of:

Lori Selke is more complicated than any bio note can do justice to. She cooks even better than she writes.

[pantryslut.livejournal.com]

Also a winner :)

i like this too - though if folks don't already know her it gives no context. like they don't know if it's her first reading or her 50th. there's nothing for a person new to lori to grab hold of as a point of access to get excited about her perspective.

i am such a fan of the one line snazzy bios. it's so hard to remember that they do serve all those purposes for new folks in the crowd.
