Suggested Title: Crap in...It begins more like this:<br />Suggested Title: Crap in a Basket (25k m/m/f paranormal erotic)<br /><br />Availability: Submission of completed by April for requested release date in December 2014.<br /><br />Set-up: Hero1 is a shapeshifter rat with a massive scrotum. Hero2 is a posh English gent who reads auras, Heroine is actually an energy field who materializes only for sex.<br /><br />No, not a real proposal. <i>Please</i>. Sometimes I'm asked to elaborate on the set-up, in which case, I might then add: Hero1 is read by Hero2 while in rat form such that Hero2 realizes Hero1 is a shifter. Heroine has been lurking in alternate dimension waiting for energy of shift to materialize. Her visibility results in immediate and swift copulation as a requirement for permanent body formation. Antagonist is an energy sucker who banished her 800,542 years ago when she denied him.<br /><br />That usually takes care of the proposal. I guarantee any story proposed is subject to change but the general idea is there.<br /><br />Julia-Am so unimpressive, trust me.<br />Molly-Kenzie will find this easier and easier.Mia Wattshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00674765897555195383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5811664225790124762.post-64673358483119557262009-06-12T10:40:34.444-05:002009-06-12T10:40:34.444-05:00Mia - you really do plan ahead.

I felt the plot was rushed in my first two short attempts, and ended up lengthening the one which was accepted and is now available. (Kenzie Michaels' All She Ever Wanted at Freya's Bower, in case you were wondering...)<br /><br />(sorry for the shameless self-promo!)<br /><br />And during NaNo, the wip tried to naturally end 3 times before attaining that 50K level. It's now been chopped back down to 42.Molly Danielshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488325587798390008noreply@blogger.com
