Also Nifty.org has all kinds of stories by up & coming authors, some I pass on, others have potential. FYI Diving Deep is one of my favorites, so be nice. *grin*chocolate minxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395358955717989440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205240430255489119.post-31667352344106688082009-02-12T11:47:00.000-05:002009-02-12T11:47:00.000-05:00I suffer from depression, so I will not read BDSM ...I suffer from depression, so I will not read BDSM which represents torture in my mind,use of body fluids, or character death. I read m/m HEA to lighten my moods. Sex with a Were shifter, incest with a third is all good. I like explicit HEA and I want to see ratings on the blurb, so I don't waste my time or money on sappy romance or depressive storylines.chocolate minxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395358955717989440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205240430255489119.post-4705768491148211662009-02-12T09:37:00.000-05:002009-02-12T09:37:00.000-05:00I have to say a character death would make me pret...I have to say a character death would make me pretty mad--depending on where it fell in the story. Towards the beginning, so it's clear that our hero will get to meet another Prince Charming and live HEA? Okay, fine. But close to the end? No. Because even if he meets someone new and the ending is hopeful, it can't possibly be as satisfying as seeing the growth and development of the new relationship. <BR/><BR/>Also, second the scat squick. No thanks. Although I've actually read more than one story that made golden showers work. Still not my favorite thing, though.Louisa Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00035634952904038638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205240430255489119.post-24122447399066951662009-02-11T21:25:00.000-05:002009-02-11T21:25:00.000-05:00I don't mind menages if they're well done, but it'...I don't mind menages if they're well done, but it's a tricky business for sure. <BR/><BR/>I think death is especially tricky because it's so personal. The grief and moving on is individual and how long does it take? Days, weeks, months, years, decades? Everyone reacts differently so I think most readers react according to their personal feelings. <BR/><BR/>I dont have many "NO" stories but I'm not a big fan of ex's in stories. It's one thing if it's a good friend you messed around with but someone you have a long romantic history?

Although I don't care for it when a M/M story suddenly gets a female dropped somewhere in the middle just for the novelty factor.Amanda Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17631269469790529611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205240430255489119.post-57823724554544045522009-02-11T18:36:00.000-05:002009-02-11T18:36:00.000-05:00Anything scat related.

I draw the line at certain play--and I wont even read anything that goes down that path.<BR/><BR/>I also avoid gay holocaust erotica [yes it exists] and while I have read some [I only liked 1 of them] it is something I avoid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
