Gambio

It could be worse.

Luxury problem. :P

I knooow.
I really need to get over my irrational hatred of them.

Cormac McCarthy?

Yep. Tried to get into Blood Meridian but just couldn't. It's a rough read.

Surely he must have seen quotation marks used before. How could he believe they don't exist?

For anyone morbidly curious, this is the side-branch: https://chyoa.com/chapter/Wait%2C-What-Did-Happen-To-Lois-Lane%27s-Cock.1066411

Congratulations, your character now has a magic hat that appears only in socially appropriate contexts! Buy the rest of the set for just 70 gold pieces!
*2 hours pass*
...Oh dear, it's a little buggy.

that's actually a lot more contextually appropriate then you might realized, even down to the pricing lol

Frontfooted, which isn't really an established English word, but has seen use to mean something like "proactive", as in putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward.

No. Opposite of backhand would be straightforward. So it would be straightforward insult. Or: in your face, frontal, face-smacked, headbutt insult.

'Frontlegged' made me laugh :)

Chapters require work. And when you omit them, they tend to hang over your head, tormenting you...

How many porns will we write, before we realise, that we will never write this one chapter!?

Haha, that sums it up pretty much.

On the plus side, the gay nose porn chapter is just about to be released.

I do get plenty of favorites, but bookmarks are mostly for the latest chapter, so they get notified when a new chapter launches

My newest currently sits at five bookmarks and two likes and I'm just goddamnit XD

Part of the reason why I've turned off Bookmarks from my notifications. People barely do anything with them and it doesn't help with my ego/drive to continue writing - plus it's not visible to other readers, which doesn't motivate them to click on the upvote button.

That's actually not a bad idea. I mean technically, a bookmark is pretty much a like so it really shouldn't matter , BUT I LIKE NUMBERS GETTING UP!

Very little so far.

Oh yeah, don't forgot to wear a condom when you fuck your printer.

Oh wait, you didn't mean it literally. My own printer started being naughty.

Oh yeah, that's not what I'm doing with it. I just give it sexy lines to say. lol

Can it do onomatopoeia?

at least from the stuff I am using that's a no.

If by paragraph you mean more breaks? I find that it might be that they are more mobile readers. I found when writing for Kindle that when I had more breaks, I got better reviews and more reads. I think it's just how people developed to read on their phones more. 10 years ago it was mainly computers, now we got tablets and phones, and well only so much text. That's my only guess?

Uh, laziness?

Maybe they're loved ones died in some kinda freak accident caused by them using a paragraph.

Damn is this some sort of cult classic? Never even heard of that series before

FML: The Story - An erotica author creates a character that comes to life - is it the spunky protagonist? The sexy villain? No, it's the horrible side-character determined to make the author miserable...

and with good cause! You created the ugly bastard after all

the second link is just a link to my deviantart page, so no idea what the hell's wrong

actually...might be because I put it on mature content lol

The think is, I have a DA account and I had it so that Mature content can be seen. *shrug*

Every Hole Is A Chance For Glory!

For every plot hole you strike down, two more will rise to take its place!

5 Stages of Burnout:
1. Honeymoon phase - still full of energy and optimism.
2. Onset of stress phase - Begining to experience stress.
3. Chronic stress phase.
4. Burnout phase.
5. Blaaaaaah

that's a very accurate description of my mental journey since august

It looked like that - the number of 'a' in 'blaaaaaah' was a clear indication!

Prescription - you need a time out and a vacation!

The word refers to a conflict between story and gameplay, or more broadly, story and mechanics, or maybe author agency and consumer agency. That distinction doesn't really exist in other forms of art: as a consumer, you can't influence a painting, or a piece of music.
It depends a little on the context, but the closest similar phenomenon I can think of is the uncanny valley, which crops up on all kinds of places.

uncanny valley is indeed the direction I was thinking as well. Probably will go with that one then, thanks

Also: I'm impressed you can adhere to that rigid a schedule!

I do feel a schedule helps me to actually commit to something.
Downside is that it can feel like work sometimes.

As they say:

"Every Hole is an Opportunity."

You guys call it "First April?"

I knew something felt strange about that but I was too lazy to check.


But yes, it's day, month, year over here, instead of month, day, year

That's cool.

My personal favorite name for this holiday is Liar's Day, coined by Jerry Holkins of Penny Arcade fame way back in... 2005!?

That can't be right. MAN I feel old now. Imagine living in 2005. 2020 is still 15 years away, Covid hasn't been invented yet, we don't all have black rectangles in our pockets...
