If You're Not At Porn Camp...

This weekend is Circlet Press's annual #porncamp, East Coast edition. The lighthearted name conceals what an intense and useful event it always is (though it is also hilariously funny, at least some of the time). Circlet's publisher, Cecelia Tan, is one of the smartest people I know, and she knows how to surround herself with similarly talented and intelligent individuals. The outcome of getting these people together is an essential compendium of information on the state of erotica.

Sadly, this year, I wasn't able to attend, though I'll be following #porncamp on Twitter (if you're interested in the business of erotica, I highly recommend you do the same). I'm looking forward to seeing what comes up this weekend.

This occasion also seems like a good time to mention the Circlet Press Patreon page. I'll let Cecelia explain the situation in her own words:

Circlet offers one of the most generous Patreon rewards packages I've seen. For example, for just a $2 pledge, you get 4 backlist books immediately. If you pony up $25 a month, you get access to Circlet's entire digital backlist, so you literally could read All The Books.

If this sort of thing interests you, I highly recommend checking it out. Not only do you get plenty of cool stuff, you help support a press that does exciting, sexy, essential work. Not only that, Cecilia's mentorship has meant a great deal to myself and many other erotica writers and editors.



I know I would never have edited a book like MakerSex without Circlet, and I'm so proud of what resulted from that project.

So, to summarize, check out #porncamp on Twitter. If you'd like to read some Circlet books (maybe including MakerSex?), this is a great weekend to take a look at the Patreon page as well.
