I choose to hold my tounge about the rest of the slights, opinions I disagree
with and facts I dispute -- but I'd be a louse if I didn't stand up for our
author Mary Anne Mohanraj when she isn't here to speak for herself. 

"Torn Shapes of Desire" is what moved IAM from publishing computer software,
videos and books into more literary works.  I suggest anyone with an open
mind about who I am and what my company is trying to do read my foreword to
"Torn Shapes" at http://www.iam.com/tsd/tsd-foreword.html

Most of the reviewers and readers of "Torn Shapes" would strongly disagree
with your characterization of the book simply as a "masturbatory aid."  It's
a highly literary, very well written and quite tasteful collection Mary
Anne's short stories and poems, a dozen photographs by Tracy Lee, essays
about free speech by the three of us, and an interview with a panel of
Internet erotica writers.  Had the p-list encountered the book under
different circumstances, I imagine many of you would like it quite well (and
you still might). The book is better described (including many review snips)
