The Literary Brothel is Alive!


The Literary Brothel (www.literarybrothel.com) has finally gone down. This site is its replacement.

What is The Literary Brothel? Some call it a creative writing website started in 2001 by Parker Briggsmore and Klaus Varley. Parker and Klaus call it "a place to whore out the deepest and most intimate details of our lives in exchange for a little bit of internet fame." Others have used such language as "good for procrastination," or "not for me." All are correct.

Why did www.literarybrothel.com go down? The domain was lost due many complicated factors that cannot be easily summed up in one blog entry. That is, unless you say, "we were too cheap to renew it." Got 30 bucks a year? Neither do we. (Wait, did you say yes? Where were you??)

Anyway, this FREE site is where The Literary Brothel will been resurrected. Within the upcoming days, weeks, months, and (hopefully not) years, we will add the content that you so sorely miss from the old site, and perhaps even have "fresh" stuff as well.* By February of 2011, The Literary Brothel will appear in book form. If you are reading this, you are eligible for a free copy. No strings attached.**

So, welcome back, and stay tuned. We update every Tuesday and Thursday.

Seriously.

You'll get yours. Oh yes, you'll get yours.

(This is what I wrote in the last comment, but not as ominously.)

Oh, not just good for procrastination...excellent for procrastination.
I voted for Obama once already, so I'm expecting the hardcopy any day now.

Hi. How is it going? If you want to be the "literary brothel" I think than you need to be both literary and sexual.

Literary means that you need to be creative and expresseive-- and to avoid spelling and grammar errors. Your site is presently loaded with both.

Sexual? Well, I'll leave that to you, though I'm no prude and respect any definition or realization of this area that you choose.

So, get the f*!? with it and clean up your damn act-- grammar and spelling I mean f*!? the rest.

Wishing you the best,

Thanks, John M.

Grammar errors, OK, but spelling errors? Where?

Get reel.
