Hello all!
I'm looking to chapter swap with someone who is interested in reading something akin to Paranormal/fiction/fantasy with a Romantic Edge... (NO Stephanie Meyer here!) I'm not LDS. My books are adult fiction and I'm kinda shooting for a more female audience, but not exclusively. Living in Utah, I've found it difficult to find a critique group... any ideas?? :-*
;D

Sounds interesting. I would recommend you to the Email List so you can be in Reading Excuses, but you already did that before I could respond to this topic! ;)
It's hard to find writing groups, but I'm quite liking the way Reading Excuses is turning out. We have plenty of females here, too, so you should be set!

Welcome! Always glad to have new people (so saith the new person...).
Anyway, paranormal fiction is pretty much standard around here... but what exactly to you mean by "adult?" You might want to check out this (http://www.timewastersguide.com/forum/index.php?topic=6704.0) thread, as well.

As in not children's literature, I'm guessing? :P
Sorry. Couldn't resist.

*pththb* ;)
As in, rated X? Rated PG? Rated NC-17? Somewhere in the middle?

I would say... the ratings vary. Nothing hardcore, but hovering around rated R... sometimes popping over to NC-17ish... That's just stabbing in the dark. *snark. Most of my stuff would stay around PG-13 I'd wager with a few scenes/chapters revving up a little. Inevitable battles, really really evil bad guys... really really naughty good guys (and girls) I'm equal opportunity. :P

Hmm... well I was going to chime in and say that I like a good paranormal romance (and no, Twilight wouldn't count :P) but your stuff may be harder than I usually like it. Welcome anyway!
