(Boy we are leaving ourselves open there.)
We have a 45.000 word rough draft of a story that will grow before it is published. (Right now the sex scenes and a couple of other scenes are single to five-word entires)
We were wondering how to finish and submit it for maximum readership.
A short synopsis is two young women have graduated from high school start a business instead of going to college. The non-sexual story arc that is basically existent continues with the pair being successful in running a small business, being shaken down by corrupt government officials...
(This part is an anonymized and toned-down but 100% true recount of the author's own experience with an employee of the Federal Aviation Administration who was privately involved in a multi-million dollar real estate partnership with a competitor to the author's aviation business and used their FAA authority to damage that business. The author won money damages in court. The corrupt official was promoted to a position where they had no authority to repeat their felonious activity.)
The pair deal with the harm this does to their business, restructure to minimize the damage and eventually grow the business even larger.
The primary romantic / sexual relationship is between the two MCs, but through the years they add other partners both male and female and explore multiple 'kinks' liking some and being ho-hum to others.
Our QUESTIONS are:
Submit as one long story with multiple tags or as several chapters, and...
PLACEMENT: Lesbian would be easy, but the MCs have multiple male lovers (sometimes at the same time). Group, except sometimes its the just the two MCs or one MC and... Breaking the chapters up and placing different 'kinks' in separate chapters, except that worked very poorly in the past for us. Romance, we sort of think of it as a romance, but there are 'kinks' that others may think shouldn't be in this category. We even considered E-V by telling it from the viewpoint of a detective trying to obtain 'dirt' on the pair. Starting with the conflict, moving quickly to the pre-conflict through interviews and the the post-conflict by direct voyeuristic observation. I guess we could make them twins instead of school chums and put them in i-T, but there is a "this is cool because it's forbidden" element that would be lackng.
FINAL QUESTION (and thank you for not leaving): How much sexual content? Being older gals with lots of experience we could go into great detail and create a 90,000 word story that was 50/50. But having that experience is a double edged sword, sometimes we just toss out an outline to let others fill in the details from their experience or fantasies.
A big thank you to everyone who has read this far and an even bigger one for all opinions that do not include suggestions that quote Harry Chapin (Mr. Tanner - 1973).
