I watched the 2004 Klaus Nomi documentary and his story reminded me of how you talk about creativity and being genuine. The interviewees talked about how the first time he performed with the persona Klaus Nomi at a vaudeville-style variety show in NYC in the 70s, everyone was stunned. Several of the people describing this event mentioned how the show was meant to be ironic, everyone was doing nudge-wink joking acts and goofing around, the audience/scene was apparently very cynical, but he got up and took it seriously. He was earnest, he was himself, and after a frozen moment of silence, everyone went crazy.
THANK YOU yes this is very reminiscent of what the journey of my career has been like, and this particular trot makes me very proud. all of the buckaroos who mean a lot to me artistically, from the andys (andy kaufman and andy warhol) to the davids (david byrne and david lynch) have had similar ways from 'strange' outsider to legend.
was talkin with some buds about how i think there is possibly a connection between this and my autism trot. there is a sort of ability to see a path that nobody else takes but say to yourself 'that makes sense to me, i do not really care if nobody else takes this path'. others can be bogged down with the 'right' way of doing something
so really being ridiculed like i have is this beautiful artistic TROJAN HORSE, where initially very few people take you seriously but they still let you in. they let you trot around in their brain for a while and very slowly they start to get it.
i think it also goes to show how much art is in PERCEPTION of the creator (i talk on this a lot already but this is very good example). look at something like SPACE RAPTOR BUTT INVASION getting nominated for hugo award. EVERYONE said some variation of 'this is obviously a joke and making fun of gay people and autistic people and erotica itself' and on and on. buds on the left said this, buds on the right said this. it was VICIOUS. and all the while i said 'no this is real serious art and i am doing something that goes outside of the way you see the medium itself' and that just made people MORE MAD.
but now looking back, when i presently have award winning best selling books from major publishers and so on, it is easier to see that the erotic tingleverse, as a whole, is a valid piece of art and expression that resonates with a lot of people.
really the only thing that changed was the perception of ME as a creator
anyway. i am proud of my art and where i sit in the world of artists. i like being a sort of chaotic queer punk rock force. so i cannot complain really
i will say this though. this is all a PERFECT example of how queer and neurodivergent artists have to go above and beyond to even get basic respect from both the left and the right
the years of saying 'i am serious. i am real' the years of taking vitriol, or being constantly made fun of are PERSONALLY okay with me. i am a tough buckaroo. in a strange way, that story is kind of part of the art in itself. HOWEVER we still have to acknowledge that a straight neurotypical person would NEVER have to constantly prove themselves like i have.
i dream of a world where queer and autistic artists are not harassed by one side and gatekept by the other, and believe it or not i think we are moving in a good direction. there is still a LOT OF WORK to go though
fortunately, i think there are easy ways to help. you can support outsider artists you like by reading or listening or just buying their art and puttin it on your shelf (PREORDER LUCKY DAY BY CHUCK TINGLE HERE). but ALSO, if you are an outsider yourself JUST CREATING IS SO POWERFUL. build and craft and speak your unique way into the universe. FILL THIS SPACE WITH YOUR UNIQUE WAY. THAT is how we prove love is real.
see that path that makes since to you but nobody else is willing to try? take it

I am obligated to reblog this again, because it is now Superwholock, and therefore perfection.
people need to remember that every tumblr post in 2012 was like this

The book will officially have MORE THAN 150 pages!
When planning and publicizing this campaign, we were careful to write that while we are planning a 150 page book, we warned that there was a risk that we wouldn't be able to meet that. Well, we shouldn't have worried, because we are officially OVER the 150 page mark! In fact, this book is turning into a 200 page book...
Well that's great for Indiegogo contributors! With a nearly 200 page book, we will need to go back to the printers and get updated quotes. Undoubtedly, the cost will go up, but for now, we are not increasing the prices for this book....yet. IF we ever sell this book in-person, it will likely be a $70+ book (it is currently at $65/hardcover book).
So you are getting an INSANE DEAL by pledging through this Indiegogo campaign. We just need ONE more contributor to hit our 70% funded mark. AND you will be helping support us at this important, early stage.
To entice anyone who is still on the fence, just a friendly reminder, this is definitely a book that contains explicit sexual content :)

I say this with love. Do not cite the old magic to me, friend. I was there when it was written.
I appreciate this ... acceptance? It's nice to be acceptable.
But I feel obligated to point out that I've been posting on this hellsite (affectionate) since at least 2008.
I don't know what this invasion is, but I am not part of it. I've been here so long, I'm part of the furniture.
I'm not going to play the Elder card, but I am going to tap the sign.
It's almost as if celebrities are people! Who do things like join social media platforms!
This is the man who wrote a 1,000-word essay about his childhood experience going to see Goncharov, for heaven's sake. He belongs here.
I didn't expect my original post up there (which, honestly, was amusing to me in a wry, gen x way) to blow up a little bit like it did, but I'm just overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and kindness and all the things that continue to make this hellsite (affectionate) worth protecting and defending until the sun goes out.
I am deeply grateful for your acceptance!
But that's not why I reblogged this. I reblogged this because that thing I wrote about Goncharov is one of my favorite things I have ever written. I don't recall another time I had that much fun writing anything. And it made me so happy to read it all over again, I wanted to share that happiness.
Remember how fun that was? That wonderful moment when we all just agreed to play a global improv game, and celebrated each other's creativity? There were no bad ideas, just fun additions and the largest online gathering of Theater Kids And Associates the world has ever seen?
That only happened because Tumblr can't not be Tumblr. And to bring it all back around, I've been here so long, I'm really happy to be one of the many Elders who care about nurturing it for the future, if I am ever allowed the privilege.

My fanfic & other stories
I have been writing ...stuff these last 40 years or so, in many fandoms + some original stuff and a few collaborations. Some are large fandoms, like Star Trek or BBC Sherlock; others were large before being exterminated, like canon Rice Interview with the Vampire; others are smaller, like Brokeback Mountain, or niche, like Hamlet.
All this material is on a private website, including the older and frankly rather cringe bits, because I am still fond of them and of the thrill I felt when the ideas got hold of my pen. The home page is a list of links, ordered by category, so it should be easy enough to locate the fandom of one's interest.
I am planning to post on AO3 sooner or later, but so far time has been lacking.
Now @totallysilvergirl has encouraged me to begin by sharing my website, which is an honour, and a request I cannot deny! So, if any of you feels like having a look, this is the address:
mazaher.org
I can't wait to explore your website, @mazaherstuff. Thank you for tagging me; I've tagged a few other folks below the cut.
I admit it, the Lady Bracknell in me (or worse, Lady Catherine) rejoices in being She Who Cannot Be Denied ;)
OMGOMGOMG I just peeked into the Sherlock section and fainted over the first entry, "scent." (I don't know if the links will be preserved in this copy-paste, but the site is very easy to navigate.
I am literally crying. What a treasure.
See, when you are reading a fic (touch, 2011) that has these phrases in it, you know you have struck fic gold:
• "(small sigh by John on opening, but no vocal protest for the half-defrosted hedgehog in the salad bowl),"
• "The touch is precise like fingertips and ubiquitous like raindrops, but the fingertips are tiny and the raindrops don’t soak. It is just this side of ticklish. Hard but springy, accompanied by a thin metallic noise. Satisfying like scratching around a scab. Elusive like pleasure. Calming. Arousing. Wonderful. Sherlock lets out a breath he didn’t realise he was holding and all but melts down on the sofa."
• "Sherlock is silky. Whatever he’s wearing slides and flows along his long thin body with the simple elegance of water going down a tall waterfall. Everything about him is smooth, sliding, soft. Cool and clear. Shiny and neat. Silky. A reflection of his mind, like the aerodynamic body of a Ferrari is designed around the full power of the engine inside, allowing it to perform at its best. And, like a Ferrari, Sherlock is almost untouchable."
MAZAHERSTUFF YOU HAVE BEEN HOLDING OUT ON US
THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES
