    About this ebook

    The Placement of Modifiers: Dr. Chalkdust goes to the local LGBT bar, which she co-owns, and meets Bernie, an arrogant butch who doesn’t know who she is. Dr. Chalkdust lures Bernie to a private area, where she restrains Bernie for a private lesson. Bernie loves Dr. Chalkdust’s teaching style, and she learns not to make assumptions about small, feminine women.
