Posted my 14th chapter of HFR earlier. I keep thinking this will be a shorter chapter and ends up being 1700 words.
just released my new big sis / lil bro story BOSSY BIG SISTER! https://chyoa.com/story/Bossy-Big-Sister.75546
I've come down with something and am near bedridden rn, but once I'm better should be ready to finish up some endings for Adventurer's Guild
I’ve added a terminal element for chapters! You can use it to display fictional computer screens, system logs, and command-line-style text.
That is cool idea! Did you consider doing something similar, but instead looking like old book, document from Middle Ages or papirus?
@Regin34 Thanks! I did think about adding something like a letter, diary entry, or note. I’m still open to it, but for now I decided not to introduce too many new elements at once.
@Regin34 I also wasn’t quite sure how it should look in practice, for example, whether a letter would ultimately just be another styled box. It could still be a cool addition, though. If you have a particular use case for your story or an idea of how you imagine it looking, let me know!
We now have a draw element for chapters! Authors can use it to let readers randomly draw one outcome from a set of options.
We now have an ordering puzzle element for chapters! Authors can use it to let readers rearrange shuffled items into the correct order.
We now have an email element for chapters! Authors can use it to present fictional emails with From, optional To, and Subject fields.

Feels like lately I see people call anything less than 110% pure positive happy thoughts, as "negativity."
Like avoiding dealing ANY mildly negative feelings you have is still being cynical. Just in a even less healthy way.
Jrpgs: Picking weapons and skill trees, isn't character customization and you know dam well it isn't actually.
You ever give yourself little writing challenges like "I will write this sex scene without using the word 'cock' or 'pussy,'"?
In my opinion best erotic scenes come without using direct descriptions of genitalias, and more are focusing on emotions and poetic metaphore. Which is a big challenge and demands great efforts, but it gives best effect.
My #1 challenge to myself lately is: can I write this *without* going into excruciating detail? It's... a work in progress.
Keep thinking I want to be more active again, but then I feel like I'd just be bothering people to hit them up again after so long
I tend to have the attitude that I write for me. If others like it or choose to follow me then it's a nice bonus.
It's slow and quiet right now. You worry too much - with emails, DMs, letters, chat - it's up to the person you wrote to, to answer or not. Write, or you will regret not writing.
We now have action buttons. Action buttons let authors add clickable choices inside a chapter that directly change the reader’s game state.
I added a new feature called Inventory to game mode. If you use it, feel free to post your story here. Would love to see it in action. :)
