I'm kicking around an idea for an Incest/Taboo story. Not very long, maybe a couple of Lit pages at the higher end.
The reason I am a bit circumspect about it is the category it should go to.
Since there is sex between a father and a daughter, Incest/Taboo is the obvious candidate.
But... the way the idea is in my head and the way the story is structured, the fact that they are father/daughter is the big twist in the story - the sting in the tail if you will. I feel that if I put the story in the Incest category itself, the story loses a lot in terms of the twist and a surprise element.
On the other hand, I am aware that if I put it in another category (say Mature because of the age difference), the average reader might not like suddenly discovering that the couple are father and daughter.
What is your take on my dilemma?
