Gay Muscle Romance Novels

[troy46128]

I am curious about what you all would like to have written. I think that there is a need for gay muscle romance novels and I am considering writing them. I would like to get a feel of how many guys would be interested in reading this genre of writing. I look forward to your feedback.

I do encourage you to go ahead. However, muscle should probably be only the initial spur. A novel, in my opinion, must have some psychological density as well, if you what I mean.

Thanks, yes there will be some depth in the novel and a story behind it and will explore the characters as well. There will be ups and downs in the relationship but that will make it grow stronger.

O.k., I'm intrigued AND confused.

When you say "Gay Muscle Romance Novel" you mean something like a "romance novel" except it involves men, muscle growth and lots of obstacles until the couple gets together?

So that means it should contain the following:
1. Scene where our protagonists meet "cute"
2. One protagonist is a badass or a "bad boy" or a "town rebel"
3. the other protagonist is "good person" "local saint, aka "doormat"" who has been unlucky at love, and who has either:
a. returned to the hometown to lick their wounds or
b. never left the hometown, AND
who is:
4. The town librarian
5. The town elementary school teacher
6. A full time caregiver for their aged parent, grandparent or minor child (who is, rambunctious and adorable)
If not "experienced," then our main protagonist should be:
6. Young, virginal, innocent, unspoiled although somewhat disillusioned.


The OTHER protagonist, aka "the bad boy" "the rebel" or "badass" is involved in some manly pursuit, and is usually a:
7. Secret agent
8. Bodyguard
9. Cop/fireman/first responder.

Protagonist #2 is always secretly pining for protagonist #1, with whom they had an almost serious, intensely emotionally involving relationship, years before, when they abruptly left town/this universe/this timestream.

Add in the gay and muscle growth aspects, and this could get REEallly interesting!

I can't wait to read it! I may even claim a co-authorship credit!

You have given me some great ideas. I was thinking about a small guy and a huge guy but add muscle growth could be interesting as well
