Sex & The Dragon Lords
As a person pointed out on FaceBook, the novel starts out with a naked man on a single woman's driveway.
It's a bit of a give away that there might just be SOMETHING happening between them, and that it might involve nudity. And sex. Yes! Sex!
But there was a minor incident of an accidental touching of a "dick" which caused complaints to come in and disgust being expressed; so I was confused. In order to alleviate the confusion, I put up a poll to ascertain the level of anti-sex sentiment in the readers.
From the get go, right from the start, there was a clear pattern.
The smallest minority wanted "no sex."
A few wanted "under cover sex" with oblique references or the doors closed.
A significant amount of people wanted full sexual disclosure, and quite a significant amount wanted full on erotica with steamy sex scenes (five times as many as wanted no sex!).
But the majority, an absolute majority of 50% in fact said, "Don't care, just write the story!"
Now THAT is awesome.
It *has to* include the potential for full erotica and gives permission for this to happen, should it happen.
This makes me happy and takes the shackles off , so to speak.
It was suggested to post an adult content/advisory warning over the top and I shall do that before I write any more.
In the meantime, here are the full results of the poll.
It makes very interesting reading.
