looking for feedback · 9:06pm Sep 1st, 2014
Right now I have two stories that kind of budded from the same idea. I wrote story 1 (changing perspective) and rushed to the clop. I got a lot of feedback saying that the grammar was terrible (which it was, I intend to fix it at some point but right now I think adding new content is more important than fixing up the old stuff) and a few saying that I hadn't developed my main character.
So I wanted to rewrite it. The story had received a few favorites and I didn't want to make it inaccessible for those who enjoyed it. I left changing perspectives up and published the rewrite as forced perspective, and in doing so, it progressed in a different direction. Now I find myself writing a story that I try to keep very clop oriented and one story that has threatened clop heavily but hasn't delivered.
I plan on taking these stories in very different directions. I guess my question is, should I keep the clop in the clop story and let the clop happen "off screen" in my other story so I can appeal to two different audiences? Or should I "show" the clop so that those who like the one can like the other?
I haven't decided and in the end I'll do what I want, I'm just wondering if anyone has run into this problem before and had some good insight for me to consider.
Perssonaly, I think that if you want to keep the sex 'offscreen', you'd better not mention it at all, it can be very frustrating having some part of stories said to have happened but not being told, and not only for sex, but that is only my point of view.
