Hi, I'm looking for an editor/test reader/person who likes fantasy or loosely historical fiction in particular. I'm trying to write a low-or-no-magic series of erotic stories that will stand on its own merits even without sex. There's a particular focus on intrigue rather than heroic hijinks.
I don't need a grammarian, more a person with lots of opinions and ideas. Harshness is fine. Sarcastic unhelpfulness is not.
Sexual content: m/f, f/f, group sex, possibly m/m, cousin incest. 3rd person POV, with both male and female perspectives. I'm trying to make sure there's a broader appeal than just men or just women.
Non-sexual content: There will be violence, murder and killing. It's part of the plot and it won't be excessive or gratuitous. It will be less gory than A Song of Ice and Fire. There will be swearing too, though given this website I doubt that will bother anyone.
Setting: Fictional, homebrew universe. Culture, military and fashion is vaguely pre-enlightenment, post-renaissance; technology is 19th- century for a steampunk flair.
Send me a PM if interested.
UPDATE:
Alright, I've finished the first draft of the first part, and I'm just doing a couple rounds of revision before I actually send it to people. It's a little under 10,000 words. My spelling and grammar is generally pretty good, so I'm not looking for someone to go over it line-by-line but someone who could give me their general impressions, what they think is weak and/or strong, etc.
Another note: it turns out there's no sex in this chapter. I was planning on something, but it felt a bit shoehorned and distracting. There's just a bit of teasing now. I don't want to get anyone's hopes up for fast, gratuitous sex. In my own writing I prefer to develop tension a bit more slowly... so yeah.
Again, please PM if you're interested.
