I did two short stories previously (one finished, one being worked on) that are science fiction. I enjoy it a lot but those two were mostly just big idea things or, well, shlocky.
“Testing Grounds” (as it’s called now) is actually what I’d think of as science fiction – near future science fiction. And, of course, since this is my erotica pen name, yes, it will be erotica. With a transformation bend to it. But, still science fiction. This is more difficult than the two other stories because I’m actually trying to come up with little thoughts on what could be possible down the road.
And *that* feels weird because this is erotica. Part of me thinks is kind of a waste because, well, won’t (or don’t) most people skip ahead to the sexy bits? Or is that wrong? Do people enjoy the actual little bits of story in short erotica? That’d be an interesting question to ask.
But, it’s fun regardless of who else reads or enjoys it and I’m learning things while I do it so it’s worth it.
Oh, and I’m 2400 words in on the new story.
