First of all let me introduce myself. I'm a male 52 years old pervert from Buenos Aires Argentina that had always written erotica and sex stories since I have memory. I'm a native Spanish speaker but have had the blessing of somehow good English language education. As a matter of fact I do work in written and oral English and that keeps my language skills kind of alive. I know I have LOTS of grammar problems in my writing and that refrains me for being confident to yet post my stories here.
Reading some threads in this forum I've found out that several story's ideas have something in common with plots I have already in mind or have already written (sorry still in Spanish). I'm planning to publish some story about a post apocalyptic scenario with non-human creatures and some non-cons sex.
So... Where should I publish it? As far as I've read if there is no death then Erotic Horror stories is out of the question. But once again I have mutants and this may lead it to go to Non-Human... but I also have some Sci-Fi gadgets, and also my protagonist is not always willing (somehow reluctant) on what happens to her and that leads me to Non-Consensual/Reluctant (which was always my main fetish)
Besides tagging it I don't see any way to limit a story to just one category... and I just don't want anybody complaining about what they're reading because of a misinterpretation of the story category. I plan to give a subtle guide of what to expect inside on the few words description option, and may be also do a disclaimer at the very beginning. But once again, no sure about that.
I don't think any author wants to be deceived at the first story post receiving unfair criticism (that one that is not related to the story or how it was written but to prejudges on the category) and finding a way to correctly select your category and correctly set your reader's minds on what to expect inside, is in my humble opinion the key.
I've already contacted an Editor and am still waiting his reply. I know this is a busy time as holidays are approaching, but my anxiety is almost pushing me to dare publish directly without his counseling.
Sorry if this post does not belong here, or if this was discussed sometime ago (I've been unable to find anything related in this forum). Just in case, feel free to move it somewhere else..
Anyway I wanted the more experienced writer's opinion on the matter so I can make my mind or have an idea on how to better publish a story without limiting myself to write in a set of mind that limits my scope due to categorization.
Once again, thanks for reading me
