OK.
I just finished writing chapter 21, but I am thinking that I will wait until tomorrow night to post it, as doing them more often than that seems to make readers miss chapters.
I am also enjoying how the tension is mounting. I have heard from a few people that have expressed concern about the darker aspects of my story. I sympathize with them, but have to allow the work to speak for itself.
There is sex. There are some D/s themes. There is emotional manipulation. There are some aspects that can be called marital infidelity.
In my defense, let me say this....I absolutely hate films that show gratuitous gore. I don't watch slasher films. I skipped every SAW movie. I barely made it through Silence of the Lambs....BUT....I absolutely LOVE zombie films. I can see the gore in those films without flinching. I don't know why, but I can watch Dawn of the Dead (the original please), Zombieland, Shaun of the Dead, 28 Days Later, I am Legend (OMG I even purchased the original with Vincent Price in B&W, as well as the color one with Charlton Heston), etc. without a problem.
So what is it about the way I am wired that lets me watch the one but not the other? IDK.
I just want anyone that is uncomfortable with my story to know that I understand if you have to pass over the things that bother you. I am the same way.

Appreciate what you say
Not watching red spattery stuff - or much horror apart from old flicks. I will read a good tale with some steamy scenes, I hope you don't mind if I skip a few paragraphs here and there. Er, that's a compliment, in a way!

The Horror of Compliments !!!
Podracer,
Whatever makes your world a happier place for you is fine by me.
:)
If it was intended as a compliment, I certainly am more than happy to accept it as such.
I won't try to speak for other authors, but I really want people talking about my story. The feedback, even the not-so-complimentary things, are an important part of the process. This is one of the reasons that I am slowing down my posting schedule. I really want to know what people think of my style, my story, and my characters.
Be kind to those who are unkind, tolerant toward those who treat you with intolerance, loving to those who withhold their love, and always smile through the pains of life.
