Mad idea.

Considering that it will probably never get published, never get looked up, never get picked up - whatever.

I think the world needs some lovely gay/slashy/homoerotic poetry. Is there any?

I have a fair selection of sonnets that I can convert from fanfic, and a couple of other pieces that would transcribe into poetry pretty easily, and they range from loving to mildly smutty.

I have people on my flist who i KNOW can write poetry, from free verse to sonnets to various other forms I've never heard of.

So what about it? What have we got to lose? I'm quite happy to do the work, here - collate, edit whatever and then start touting it around. As I say, it may do nothing, so you are taking a risk - but then again, it might sell and ...

let me know if anyone's interested.

I tell you what irritates me is that I fielded an idea to Alyson recently about putting together an anthology of masturbation, and I planned to drag in fanartists to do original pieces so it would have been a mixture of words and art and they turned me down (politely) and NOW what's on the top of the gay lists? Only a wank anthology... that's what!! And not mine!

I haven't done any erotic ones but might be tempted by the challenge :)
