Attention m/m novelists

[veronica_rich]

Yes, those of you with publishing contracts to sell m/m books starring OMCs - if you would care to render your opinion on something related.

A friend wants to know if you think repurposed slash fanfic could ever go as mainstream as 50 Shades has for het erotica (I don't know if she means any m/m or m/m erotica; you'd have to ask her, really). I'm not an author, so the opinion I gave isn't informed - do you all have any?

I was thinking more of erotica, but actually any kind of book featuring a romantic relationship between two men (or two women, although Sarah Waters has already done that to a certain extent). Historical romance, detective fiction, comedy, anything you like. The only common denominator being the treatment of a same-sex relationship as normal and part of the fabric of life. :)

Not to mention that there are publisher's the only deal with m/m romance/slash and that's all they do.
And sometimes they'll accept f/f too.
