Ahh! what's the world coming to?

I can't find any stories that I want to read...help me?

I'm trying to find stories to bookmark, but can't find any good ones that I would like to readmore of...

I'm looking for a story with suspense, rich description and a polt that will continue on in other chapters...

The genres I would love to read are Scifi, Fantasy (modern is okay too!), ones about vampires or werewolves (that kind of stuff), and ones with romance.

Stuff I do not want to read: highschool drama stuff unless it turns into a surreal kind of thing.

Other than that, here are the rules:

1. No sticky caps

2. Minimum erotica (romance is perfectly fine, but I don't want something all about sex...it's boring)

3. Grammer and spelling (try and do well on this part, I'm an editor at heart)

4. No gay-bashing or racism (I am highly against both of these two things)

5. Cursing is a welcome thing! (It helps define characters sometimes)

6. Point of view needs to stay consistant (no going from first to third person for the same character...changing point of view with characters is okay aslong as I can tell the differences)

7. Make the story at least 1000 words (it's sometimes hard but if you get it in that area you'll be fine)

8. DON'T make it 20000 words if you can help it (I can't read everyones on time if your story's that long...)
