This past week, I tossed several stories that were more about cannibalism than they were about castration. One in particular made me physically ill as I was reading it.
So before you go to any lengths to write a story, keep in mind that cannibalism is out as a theme. I don't mind the occasional culinary preparation and eating of severed genitals - that's to be expected and I'm used to reading it. However, when the main focus is snuffing and eating people, especially boys, it's trashed. Period.
Oh, and to add insult to injury, one of them didn't have paragraph breaks, either! The grammar was good, though...
I guess we can't have everything?
