Woman not reading fairy porn for the world-building

A WOMAN on her third volume of fantasy-themed pornography would like to inform its author she is not here for the rich fairy world-building. 

Filth consumer Charlotte Phelps admitted her motivation for reading His Wand, My Rose III: The Fertile Pumpkins was not to learn about meetings of the Fae Council but to for all the gossamer-winged princesses to get f**ked.

She said: “It’s the f**king. The paragraph after paragraph of florid, gratuitous, cliche-heavy fairy f**king.

“I’m not here for the map or the description of their enchanted citadel. The dialogue is clunky in cod-Elizabethan, but I’ll overlook that when Titania’s spanking our heroine then tasting her eldritch nectar for a forbidden liaison that leaves her lips smeared in glitter.

“I couldn’t give a shit why Queen Gweneviere has banished her loyal guard Tibalt from the palace of the four winds, but I do care about their former hard f**ks in the unicorn stables. I care about them a lot.

“If you want to vary it a bit I’m down for a nymph blowing an ogre, a dryad doing an elf train or a couple of dragons rutting in the sky. Just spare me the lengthy explanation of how they co-exist in the fairy realm because honestly who cares.”

Author Raven Thessaly, whose real name is Nathan Muir, said: “I wanted to write proper fantasy trilogies for men. But I included all my wank fantasies and now women love them.

“Damn you. You will care that Titania has taken the Sceptre of Summoning to the very core of Ra, and not just because I’ve had her hide it up her chuff.”

Why going beyond the Wimbledon quarter-finals is gauche and un-British, by Tim Henman

By Tim Henman, Britain’s greatest tennis player 1998-2004

BRITON Cameron Norrie has reached the quarter-finals of Wimbledon and, I trust, has the manners to go no further. For it is not our nation’s way. 

We are a nation that hosts tennis, not a nation that wins at tennis. What could more socially awkward than for the host to take top prize? Like a headteacher drawing his own ticket in the raffle and winning a weekend in Weymouth for two.

In recent years, due to a Scot, we have flouted that rule and to our detriment. While it is nice to have a first British men’s singles win in 77 years or so, I wasn’t counting, it’s done with now. We can get back to what we’re good at.

What’s wrong with carrying the nation’s hopes on your shoulders for five games before crashing out gloriously in the quarters? While being nice with a nice fiancée and a mum who does the big shop at Waitrose?

Yes, I hear the critics carping. Yes, on four occasions I reached the semi-finals of Wimbledon. That’s tennis, it was a weak field, but I embarrassed myself no further by getting knocked out immediately with a certain fluid grace.

So, Cameron. I recognise you may not understand our English traditions, due to being born in South Africa, raised in New Zealand, educated in Texas and resident in Monaco. Nonetheless, I’m sure you can follow this one.

In your match against Alcaraz tomorrow, lose. Lose for England, Norrie! Make us proud.
