    3. I think overall this is working well. It sounds like it could be fun and exciting. I guess if you’re going to be nitpicky, using the word sex three times maybe can be cut a little.

      And to evangeline, by starve off I mean really to try and keep it under-control/submission.
      thanks

      cool, thanks for that. thats pretty much the way that mine goes, expect it goes a little further than autoerotic asphyxia. but yeah i think that you’re logline suggestion does work/sound better. Ill try and work ontop of that
      thanks

    6. Re: issue #2, James, are you referring to the term “stave off” which means to ward off or keep away?

      I like sharkeatingman’s rewrite, but would argue that you wouldn’t even need to add “struggling to find willing partners”. If he’s a “homely sexoholic”, enough said, surely?

      Issue #1- Sex is mentioned three times.

      Issue #2- Can one “starve off” an addiction? I’ve not heard that phrase before.

      Issue #3- I would target one dangerous method in the logline, and let the story play out to include the other eleven.

      For Example: “A homely sexaholic, struggling to find willing partners, chooses to “hang” with a gorgeous escort who teaches him the dangerous art of autoerotic asphyxiation.” (24 words)

      Protag- homely sexaholic
      Antag- escort
      Goal- to find willing partners, or to be rid of need for partners
      Inner conflict- his need for acceptance
      Outer conflict- his addiction, need for sexual release
      Stakes- possible death
      Hook- the secret underground world of autoerotic asphyxia
      Genre- drama

      Hope this helps some!
