I actually have a chapter w00t

Hi

Just a couple of things. I'm new here - I got inspired to look for writers forums as I just finished a chapter of my erotic fiction (there's no sex in the first chapter, mind

) and obviously I want to tell the world and get feedback etc etc I've published it online but it's not beyond redrafting as I see it as an ongoing process. So here it is.

Secondly, I've got vague hopes of maybe making a podcast of the novel. My own voice is frankly no good and I'd probably want a female voice to do it anyway... does anyone have any thoughts on where I could find crazy willing volunteers to do this?

Demonjuss, congratulations on finishing that first chapter. Getting your feet wet is the first step of swimming in the deep waters, right?

It might be more conducive to feedback if you were to post your work here at AW rather than linking us to another side. Erotica has its own Share Your Work board with its own password. You can get it from this board's moderator. Just shoot veinglory a PM saying you're an adult. Once you have access to SYW Erotica, you can see what level feedback people receive and what sort of things they're posting, and know if it's right for you or if you'd rather have your work only off-site.

About the podcast. Cart after horse, remember? First finish the book, the rewrite it as many times as it takes until it's as polished and perfect as possible. This could take months or years. Only then should you worry about finding a suitable voice for reading it, okay?

For the moment, thought, bask in your completed chapter and get cracking on the next one--and write veinglory a note seeking the password to post your work here at AW for critique from your fellow erotica writers.

Maryn, pleased to meet you
