Sebby, I have a thing with reaction .gifs. And I have no problem with a long/negative review, but was worried someone who liked 50 Shades might perhaps feel mocked, and not get down to the important part (it's not BDSM, it's abuse), which is why I added the ctrl+f note.
Imp- I haven't read all of 50 Shades (excerpts and the beginning, and I did not/could not read more), but I agree, especially with both Twilight and 50 Shades having weird approaches to rape/abuse and so on. eg Bella's dad: "Jason was trying to kiss/feel you up? High five, Jason!" (Jason's his name, right?). Furthermore, I agree that I (and many people who are vanilla) will read and know it's not BDSM, and just take bits (as I said about handcuffs, above).
Also, re: publishing, I did that, I'll just never get picked up by Penguin or whoever has her. All the writer-folk I know are a bit pissed, since getting a large publisher to pick up erotica was difficlt, and now we're all self pubbed or signed with small ones- and really, it's still hard to get 'real' erotica published (more sex, more graphic, sometimes less romance).
