I've been thinking (so take cover ^^)

Have you noticed that the best stories aren't
lemons?  perhaps lemons which are supposed to be
jam-packed with scenes are just naturally bad.
i think the best lemons are the ones with a
high ratio of non-lemon:lemon text.  it makes
the lemons seem somehow more...realistic? genuine?

In other words, they have a story?

also, i've noticed that "girl" lemons are basically
like romance novels (grocery store rack stock).  does 
this mailing list consider those to be paragons of 
fine literature?

In other words, they have a story?

i read the Lesson in Love lemon side story, and i
gotta say i liked it. ^_^ but what made it good was
the fact that there was a 7 part non-lemon story
right behind it.

In other words, it had a story?

if this was totally out of whack and the most stupid
thing you ever read, then just don't reply.  :P

Nope, you're just agreeing with the folks who say the better lemons have
stories.  It just so happens that most of the lemons with actual stories are
written by women.
