In search of a Reader/Reviewer and perhaps Editor: I'm a little over 30,000 words into a new novel, which is also a new genre for me, namely "erotic romance." It's less about graphic sex and more about love, sex, drama, and a deeper relationship between a man and a woman--or at least, that's been my intent. I've had three test readers so far (all male) who've said they would buy the paperback. Alas, NO serious female reviewers. I would like to smooth my writing to be more appealing (and exciting) to the female reader... since I've heard the market for such writing is mostly women.
Chiefly, I'm looking for feedback and suggestions. Your location is unimportant; we can communicate via email. If you want to edit and your editing is useful, I will consider paying you for your time. (Although, I'm retired on a fixed income and can hire only one person.) My editor of many years is a retired professor of creative writing, but she's a "Christian" lady and doesn't like sex all that much. I would like some assistance from a more open-minded lady for this project.
The story is written in 1st person POV of a young man in military service during the cold war. It is tentatively titled Diary of a Cold War Spy. It is based on true historical events and is partially autobiographical. Feel free to PM me with questions and/or ideas.
