I see it both ways, actually. Readers who look down on books without explicit sex scenes and readers who are practically sanctimonious in their emphasis on a "clean" read. (Gah, I hate that term!)

It's one more example of polarization I could do without. Let readers (and writers) enjoy what they enjoy, okay? My being in the mood for a particular kind of read has no impact on what you chose to read right now.

Recently I decided to rebrand after I realized that I no longer write spicy books. Even when I was writing them, they were more diet spice than what many readers consider hot.

I took down my explicit content, focusing on my closed door romances & cozy mysteries. But never in a million years would I judge someone for choosing to read & write spicy books.

That kind of judgy behavior annoys me.

Literally rewriting my manuscript from 3rd person to 1st.

If it sounds like a lot of work, it is. But I think it might be my new method of doing revisions because the new version has better copy, final character names, and I've come up with 3 additional scenes that will make everything come together much better (and I'm only about 3/4 of the way through so far).
