She’s pregnant? And by the way, there’s not enough sex…

Yes, I got a character pregnant in a story I just wrote. She had sex and got pregnant. Yes, I have heard pregnancy doesn’t sell. Yes, I wrote it anyway, Yes, I’ll publish it anyway.

What’s that you say? The bit about there’s not enough sex? If so how did she get pregnant? No, there’s no stork involved and no finding a baby in a cabbage patch. Story one is about pregnancy. Story two has an actual story with sex as opposed to sex with a vague plot while the heroine gets screwed by multiple men who are apparently protecting her with their massive, magical condom-less dicks that cannot get her pregnant.  In my story, the heroine has only one lover. That happens you know. Yes, it will apparently never sell. No, I can’t have her screwing all the male characters because she foolishly loves the hero. Yes, love is terrible when there’s not multiple men shagging her but I expect the hero prefers to be the only one. Yes, again, I did hear the bit about that not selling. Yeah, I prefer to be an individual. Yes, again, I know individualism doesn’t sell but I’m going to do it anyway. Watch this space.

Love this. I too publish a lot of material that "won't sell". Funny thing is, it seems to be selling. I'm willing to bet there is a market, and a big one, for your work. I like your writing style. Good Luck. (hope it's a girl)

Actually, of all my "best sellers", the women had one lover and yes--they got pregnant. Amazing...

We are a small group of people who want to help as many women (and men) as we can in their pregnancy quest and experience. Of course, the most important is the community and the support that people in the same position can give to each other.
