One thing that confuses me is my chapters’ views; like, they go from, say, 200~ to 150~ to 200~ to 150~ etc etc… who is skipping?! So weird!
That's what changed a TON between my first story branch (the mid one), the one I made pre 3-month-break (long story, I'll lore drop eventually) and the ones that came after (the two I consider actually well-made); clickbait. I built those early chapters around catching people's attention and giving them what they want (sex) as fast as possible. Now I try to make a real story :)
I usually name my chapters whatever first comes to mind; sometimes that’s a rambling sentence, sometimes it’s a pun. 99% of the time it’s comedic in nature
There are several reasons why the numbers might go up and down. E.g. hub chapters (loops), branching points, links from other sites, publishing multiple chapters at once, ...
Ah! The issue with being bi is now you have twice as many choices to have analysis paralysis over! Bully male cutie or female cutie??
I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer!
I'm afraid I am going to have to start speaking to you like an Instagram Reel user if you do not cease this babbling.
@Thorn_ For some folks, the appeal is embracing that lack of control, for others it is the tension and emotional upset at that very loss of control. There is definitely a different dynamic if, say, a woman is sentenced to free-use duty and her neighbors and coworkers take advantage of that than if she willingly climbs into a free-use booth to let anonymous people use her for their pleasure.
You can still have forbidden sex (within reason) - what if a son/daughter/an in-law etc. takes advantage of the free-use situation? - but it's largely about the emotional investment of the people involved.
I find it odd that someone thinks sex would be boring if it wasn't "forbidden." But I guess we just think differently.
"kissed and nibbled at the nape of her neck" You ever look at your own writing and wonder what the hell you were on when you wrote it?
Trust me, someone somewhere somehow has an alliteration fetish. Also, sometimes eloquence adds to sex. Usually it's forcibly removing the eloquence via toe-curling orgasms that's hot, but the fancy vocabulary has some merit in and of itself. Also, I didn't notice until you mentioned it.
I used my psychic powers to save chyoa. You're welcome everyone. I singlehandedly saved you all. Again.
We're back online! CHYOA is up and running again. If you notice anything that isn’t working as intended, please let me know.
Okay. My settings are clearly messed up because this says today at 5:58 p.m. But For me currently it's 3:20. P.m..
I literally had never heard of Mick Jagger. Ever. The only mention of his name I ever heard was the song 'Moves Like Jagger', and the only name I'd ever heard that sounded even remotely like 'Mick Jagger' that was known for moving well was Michael Jackson. In other words, I live under a rock, apparently.
:D Well, there are also other MJ's you could mistake them for :) I wouldn't say you live under rock - just that you are young and inexperienced ;)
Took 50ish chapters, but ‘I am NOT a Hero!’ got a sex scene (like, outside of hand/mouth stuff)! I’ve done it! Full degeneracy achieved!!!!!
I am cringe and that's based. I will never be based and that's not cringe. Only I can be.. me. (props to people who get the reference)
If you click a username, you get a pop-up with a really nice little "Ignore" button, which does exactly what you think it does.
I've taken up vocal training. As it turns out, I'm super bad at it. Turns out, you can't get the hang of it in under a week.
If you enjoy it and practice long enough, you will improve. And if you decide it's not for you, there are soo many other things to discover and enjoy!
