I just noticed this today too. Hopefully things will be resolved by the next payment cycle.

I like to pick fights I can win and this bear had the same idea.

Home cooking is a hilarious allusion.

Would it be worthwhile to swap the problem words with euphemisms instead of blanking them out? Instead of rape, use grape or something like that? You see on YouTube and TikTok where they swap words so they can stay monetized. it could just be a filter for non-registered guests and those with...

I just discovered PixAI and I love it! It renders my drawings way better than I could hope to do myself!

I just like how much easier it is to navigate through a story on CHYOA than other places. Breaking up chapters makes for easier consumption, plus there can be a side branch to add author's notes without getting in the way of the narrative.

I'm in favor of free content. The paywall could be for joining a group or paying for a commission or subscribing to a writer to show support. You could look to Twitch, Discord or Deviant Art for monetization strategies. Subscribe to a creator for custom badges, titles or emoticons. Offer the...

If you don't link anything to their site, they can't exactly say you're giving out questionable content, but I get that it can be a bit shady, giving out benefits for a second site while only reporting on the first one. Have you looked at Onlyfans as an option? I don't think you even have to...

I'm wondering if creating a front facing page that caters to purely Choose Your Own Adventure stories that are PG or just Mature would work with the CHYOA page pointing to that to give support. The PG page won't have to link back to CHYOA so there would be no connection except for the added...

I can pick this up.

Maybe a filter in the story tree which already shows unread chapters and new and recently edited chapters. If you have a checkbox to show only new chapters, I would think it would be easy to implement.

Try to get down 500 words in 15 minutes. Once you have that down, you expand or let it sit and take care of other things while the words can run through your head and you generate more ideas for them. Start small and work from there and it won't feel as daunting as having to write a whole...

When I'm stuck for ideas or inspiration, I find it helps to walk away and clear your head. Do other things and those story ideas can gestate in the back of you head while you're concentrating on something else, then all of a sudden something kinky pops up in your head that you want to write...

I work out scenes the same way I work out plots, I have key points in mind and work toward them, but sometimes one thing leads to another and things go in a totally different direction. If it gets to that point, I either try to steer course back to the original idea or see where things go from...

I won't name names... mainly because if I do, I'll be tempted to try and use it in a story after all. Still, I do avoid complicated names, or foreign names. Alien names I would lean on simple one or two syllable phonetic sounding words to easily remember and type. The first name that came to...
