I would love feedback on this story: The Birthday Handjob. It’s a mind control story, but I am curious whether a) there’s enough mind control in the early chapters, and b) there’s too much sex. Maybe also: c) too much dialogue?
My early chapters got many more readers than later ones, and in particular I am curious if the sex writing is part of that.
Basically, it has a lot of talking and internal monologue, and I worry that I set up the wrong expectations. I was aiming for a slow burn with a larger mystery.
The reason I worry there’s too much sex is that when I look at my own favorite writers (especially the ones who serialize) they often have very little sex in each individual chapter—they let the plot or the seduction drive the story. In my story, there’s enough plot that it would be hard to jump in late, and indeed new chapters are getting a lot fewer readers than the early ones. But often there are multiple sex scenes per chapter. So among other things if you want to enjoy the FF subplot in chapter 7 you have to sit through quite a lot of MF sex writing and M masturbation.
There’s a new chapter in the queue for each of the next several days, and I am currently working on chapter 11.
