If you're willing to go public, those who choose to go over it could post their critiques here, exercising caution and judgment about any excerpts they use. If you're not quite ready to let the world discuss your flaws, people could send you private messages here or email you with critique.
I've never been too keen on posting my work out there on the internet, but
I would like to find a "private", maybe locked critique group. I'll check out
the one veinglory suggested. Actually, I think it belongs to veinglory, right?
I can handle a good critique, whether it's good or bad, telling me it's terrible,
etc... I'd rather have someone read it over and tell me it doesn't work, rather
than send something that's bad out to a market. I've just started writing erotica. So, I don't know what works, or what doesn't. I've searched the net, read some stories. Some I thought were good, some horrible. I've bought a few anthologies, such as The Best American Erotica 2005 and a couple others
to read and learn from. So, I'm just looking to talk and learn with others who write erotica, as well.
The story I'm finishing up, I think is pretty good. But that's just my opinion.
For all I know, others may think it's terrible. So....
