I needed a couple hours to think about this and gauge my reaction. I am not sure of the reason for the degree of vehemence directed at me personally for writing the story. I have concluded it resulted from my use of “hardcore” in the story description. I used the editor’s definition, which is “Plain adult sex story with no or little bdsm content “. I thought this was closer than “extreme” for this work.

As to her remark regarding my sex life, I do all right for an old guy (thank god for Viagra)

I have no pretensions of being a “great” writer. When I finished MI, I was pleased with myself that I had completed a work and had enjoyed the writing process. The small feedback I did receive was uniformly positive. It was good to think that out there in that great cyber void someone had found it, read it and enjoyed it.

Anyway to be an English teacher, like she has claimed to be in her reviews in asst. org., I would think she would be aware of spellchecker.
