If my work was a scientific experiment, the theory would now be: we, the people, will bitch like crazy about government, but will not consider changing the system. In essence, that "specific audience" does not seem to be there regardless of how well I dress it up.

In my second novel, the main character used to be slut, sleeping with just about any young man that was nice to her. Lots of sexual innuendo to put in the Medium titles.

It will almost be sad if this trick actually works.
