Content warnings:
Disregard for personal autonomy (kidnapping / enslavement / abduction)
Author Notes:
This story was submitted to a competition with a word limit of 3500. It has been credited with a personalised rejection that stated strong writing, interesting concept, but readers couldn’t suspend disbelief. Now it is available to submit to wider markets with a greater word count my queries are:
- Do you agree with the assessment that you cannot suspend disbelief? Why/why not?
- With option for additional word count, what would you like to see more of potentially?
- Did you enjoy the story?
