Re: It Certinly Works as a Teaser
Date: 2009-10-27 09:16 pm (UTC)The subtitle "A Romantic Fantasy" is meant in the "Romance Novel" sense of "Romantic".
And the major reason that it's embarrassing that THIS was the story that my brain would not let me NOT write is that it is a total Mary Sue -- or, rather, Marty Stu -- adventure. I.e., the Hero is a very, very thinly-disguised version of me. (disguised mostly by having a different name and having followed a different career path so that he's in a different life situation when everything starts.)
You're welcome to ask questions about it, though if you're REALLY curious you could just join my Beta-reading community rykspoor_beta and then you'd see the whole thing. :)
The books read pretty well for me these days; I re-read them to my son a year or two ago.
You're welcome. Of course, when I become Rich and Famous(TM) I'll have my security keeping the Hoi Polloi out, arrange form-letter responses to my email, and have a secretary keeping my LJ, right?
