Forum: Author Hangout

You would have better success posting in the Editors/Reviewers section of the Forum. The Authors/Editors link allows you to access the Volunteer/Editors section to post a request directly to Volunteer Editors.

It's also best to include a story description, story codes and genre, just so editors will know ahead of time if there are any squicks or if it's something that just doesn't interest them.

It's easier making a decision like that if you have an idea whether the idea makes any sense or not. Even now, with a whole slew of editors, several will sit out a give story based purely on the story's premise. It's not that they don't like my writing, but that the story may cut a little close to the bone.

Just as an aside, I'd also look for female editors. They're tougher to find, especially on SOL, but having at least one will help prevent you from being sucked into male sexual fantasies (which SOL is heavily weighed by). We need more female centric stories which convey what sex is like for women. We don't need women pretending to be men writing (badly) about women.
