We Now Interrupt This Blog

For a freak out moment:

Who on earth is going to publish me?

I wrote a book with no genre. Is it erotic? Yes. Is it romance, erm...well, there's tons of romance in it, my three characters fall madly in love and stuff. Is that the main motivation of the book though? Probably, kinda, maybe not. Is it more like some other genre? Not really. Fiction is such a broad label, but no other label fits either. It's romance, it's polyamory, it's suspense (sort of), it's even a little sci fi, if you stretch enough.

Arg.

Plus, it has lots of opinionated social commentary, which may or may not be accepted well. In this *particular* political climate, potentially very NOT WELL.

This may not be the book to make it, which is fine. But I wonder, can I write something acceptable to a reputable publisher?

And how can I be a good crit partner or get one when I've never done crit before? I want to, I've, um, read a lot of books. Heh. Not exactly a resume worthy statement. I'm worried about being accepted, being taken seriously, and getting good feedback from people I trust. Where do I meet people like that, anyway?

FREAK OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, phew. Got that over with. Maybe it's just the dentist thing getting my panties all in a bunch.

I can do this, I can do this, I can do this, I can do this. I want to do this because it's fun and my life's ambition from the time I was five and wrote "The Scary Gost". I can do this.
