I am a new reader. I love your blog, the organization, layout and most of all the insight, revelations and humor you share!
You are a talented writer. This piece reads so differently compared to your erotic story; it seems like you are really working on finding your voice, niche and audience. I wish you much success with this. Here are some thoughts for you. You should consider writing a coming of age novel. This would enable you to really work through the development of a character and enable you to focus on adult themes. You're gift as an erotic and scene writer should be explored.
I wish you the best on your new job, but don't neglect your writing talent. I want to see your book in print soon.
