I'm Probably Not In the Right Frame Of Mind For This, But...

When I write a story, what do readers immediately look for?

Thank you. I hate to, in the immortal words of Aurette, bleed insecurity, but you have no idea how much it means to have people enjoy your work and find something more than just the smut. I mean, I always knew I could write decent PWP, but I hoped I could write with more substance.

Well, I must say that I came upon your writing looking for smut. But, that isn't what has made me continue reading. There are plenty of authors out there that can write smut like no other, but their stories are lacking in the story-line department, something that actually keeps me interested in what is going on between the characters other than what they do between the sheets.

Your stories have substance. I come back to read the story. That is a huge difference.

Although it doesn't hurt that I get my daily dose of Vitamin C while reading, either...

LOL - You are such a hoot! I've just sent Chapter 22 to Jules for cleaning. It's a little short, but 23 has a lot going on and I needed to chop them up or it would be too big to read in one seating.
