    Good news for Georgia??
    With Georgia's economy growing and healthy as evidenced by unemployment at a record low of 3.1%, the famous porn-author, Stacey Abrams, has announced she will run again for governor. What can she possibly offer the voters of Georgia? She has no track record of success, and her only talking point is the usual pleadings about racism. Why on earth would anyone vote for her?

    but but but .............she is the self declared Guv in exile .
    The Dems will go all out because it was largely her effort that got Georgia 2 Dem Senate seats and giving the pseudo-majority in the Senate to the Dems. It remains to be seen if the voters of the state wake up ;and despite all their moaning , the new voting laws favor the Dems and are not "Jim Crow on steroids "

    If they don't, then they will go backwards and deservedly so. They will become the Cali of the East.

    I'm a Republican. Is/was she a good writer? Steamy romance novels, like those of my childhood friend, Elizabeth St. Michel!!! Yay!!!

    I found four on Amazon! I bought one, Hidden Sins. Synopsis (wow! sounds so filthy!):

    "Mara Reed has been stirring up trouble since she was eighteen—running scams, living on the edge, always on the run. Now, when two thugs are after her with murder on their minds, she’s forced into hiding in her small Texas hometown. But as she’s cornered in an alley, only seconds from death, an unexpected rescuer comes to her aid…

    A forensic anthropologist, Dr. Ethan Stuart is investigating a gruesome discovery—nearly one hundred dead bodies dating back fifty years—a mystery linked to the church once headed by Mara’s father. Ethan needs Mara’s help; she needs his protection. Their search for a shocking, devastating truth could lead them to forgiveness and salvation... if they survive."

    I don't read her books. Excerpts, however, can be found online. Yeah, it's porn.

    Not surprised at all. She's a lib; you're a lib. Makes sense. Did the title appeal to you?

    The synopsis didn't sound porny at all. I'll read it over the next couple of days and let you know. Oh, what's your definition of porn? Ankles showing?

    Here's my old friend:

    What's wrong with a little steam in romance?

    Even Abrams (a.k.a. Selena Montgomery, her porn pseudonym) knows it's porn.

    Quote:

    When Colbert revealed that he had brought an excerpt from one of the novels with him, Abrams let out an, “Oh dear God.” Then, as he prepared to read the sections that CBS Standards and Practices said were acceptable, she asked, “Can I leave now?”“If you’re going to write a romance novel, make it a bodice-ripper,” Colbert said, asking her if she had a preference as to which one he chose.
    “God no, I don’t want you to read any of these,” she replied. “I want people to read them in the quiet of their home.”

    But he proceeded anyway, reading aloud from the 2009 novel Reckless: “Softly, inexorably he tested the contours of her lips, the damp heat urging him inside,” he read. “Reaching for Patience, Luke sank down into the chair she’d abandoned and settled her across his lap. Her eyes fluttered open, her fingers clutched at his shoulders. When she tugged him closer, Patience fled.”
    So enjoy your porn book!

    Soft porn? Kind of like soft sin?

    Definition of soft porn. What people who like dirty novels call them so they can say they don't read porn.

    Nope. There's a difference between soft and hard-core.

    Why is porn a sin?

    Have you ever read or watched porn?

    You like porn. You don’t have to justify that to me. Your choice. Now I see why you support Abrams.

    "You like porn." You make me laugh out loud sometimes. I'm sure an ol' southern boy like you has seen and read far more porn than I have.

    I've liked Stacy for a long time, long before I knew she is an author, which endears her to me even more!

    Wow! She's a terrific writer! I just finished the first chapter. Creates excellent word pictures and keeps the reader's interest. No porn yet.

    I've already told you. You like to read porn and you don't need to justify that to anyone. It's your own business.

    Do you still subscribe to Playboy? My porn adviser says it's only digital now.
