Anyone wanna Beta read a quick story?

Post by Cainanite (imported) »

Well folks, I neglected my Archive editing duties for a night. I know I'm gonna catch hell for that. Instead I banged off a short story that's been in the back of my head for a while. It relates to the larger novel I'm writing, and ties in with countless stories already on the archive.

So many stories on the archive start with "In the future when castration is common..."

or

"In an alternate universe where castration is legal..."

I wanted to explain how something like that could be possible. I wanted to look at where we currently are, and what it might take for something like that to become plausible.

It is 8 pages long. (I know, short for a long winded guy like me.) and is titled "The Return of the Modern Eunuch, A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century."

It's a straight forward recounting of a possible future history. Something to bridge the gap between where we are now, and a world where castration is commonplace.

It is not overly graphic, or sexual at all, but comes with a warning, It is MINOR themed. There will be some little easter-eggs at the end of the story that could be entertaining.

Anyone interested in giving it a read?

Send me a PM, or post here, and I'll send it along for your perusal.

I'd be interested. I've written a few similar stories for other similiar genres myself.

Because I can't post the story on the EA, anyone interested should PM me, and we'll exchange email. I'll send you a copy of the story right away if I can.

Thanks to those who've already taken the time to read it. Your comments are really helpful.
