poll: besides erotica, what do you write?

A children's book for my mother's school, SF, and I'm currently putting together a submission for a comp for new playwrights. I also have an idea fo a romantic comedy novel knocking about.
 
Well, the erotic stories are more of a hobby for me, a writing exercise to be specific.

Normally I write sci-fi/fant/surrealism varying from the dark, twist-ending styles to bizarre light and comic Adams style.

I also have written urban horror/surrealism in a similar vein to my Valentine's in the Dregs or All Hallow's Eve.

I also write plays. I have about 5 finished ones, and have only been able to get one performed in some dump dive off-campus.

My half-started novels are of the sci-fi/fant/surrealism, etc... I stated before.

I also write poetry a lot since I'm very much a spur-of-the-moment poet and they range through every conceivable style.

I also have a bit of an experimental side to me, so I'll usually try and write any style on a dare and often try odd combinations in stories.

I just like to write.
 
Not much, outside of posts to various forums, and e-mail. I'm in a slump.
 
Most of my non-pornographic stories can be found at the new link in my signature, following the excerpt from my story "Such a Talented Group." It's my fanfiction.net profile.
 
I'm a whore. I'll write anything.

I've written technical reports, research papers (for money), speeches, plays, essays, humor (I'm very good with humor actually), poetry, scripts, lit crit, porn theory (it's a dirty job, but someone has to do it), straight fiction, song lyrics, music, comic books, letters (love letters for $$$. They worked.) I even wrote the ideas for a ballet once in college for the modern dance club (they didn't use it, which was a good thing. It really sucked.)

I wrote probably the worst interview ever, when I interviewed this new soccer coach from Zambia or somewhere in college. I didn't know a thing about soccer and don't much care for sports, and I couldn't understand a word he said anyhow. I filled the article with every sports cliche I knew and they printed it. ("A strong offense is our best defense", "We need everyone to contribute 110%"", "We're looking for improvement in our midfield play", "We've got to remember we're a team." It was all just bullshit because I was too embarrassed to ask the guy to speak slower.)

I don't do much straight fiction anymore, because it doesn't get read as much as porn, but my porn is getting straighter, so I guess there's some bleed-over. My fiction used to be anything that was reality-bending, and that's still true. Whether it's transcendent sex or sci-fi or tales from my drugged youth, I like messing with our ideas of reality.

I wrote a novel called "The Alchemist" about some guys cracking the world open when they synthesize this magical South American drug in a Wisconsin farmhouse. I wrote a screen treatment of it too, but no one would touch it. (Well, the one guy I showed it to didn't like it. I guess that's more accurate.)

Just a word whore.
