[stylist] Fantasy and the conservative reader?

[helene ryles]

I am getting contradictory advice again regarding my novel.
Particularly wether on not to remove that last nude bit from chapter
14.
Someone else told me to keep them in because only conservative readers
would object and they wouldn't be interested in my book anyway.
So I'm interested, particularly from Judith and Barbara who were the
ones who objected to these scenes, wether they would be interested in
fantasy based novels in the first place? Judith did seem interested in
the beggining.

It helps to know your reader but this is my first novel intended for
outside views so I'm still finding my feet where my readership is
concerned.
I've removed the nude bit as it is not really central to the plot.

What do other people think so far?
