    An open response to the one soul crusade against non-branching stories

    That is exactly my view. I am more than happy for others to add branches to my story, but do not write them myself as I feel swapping between branches all the time would hamper my ability to 'feel' a characters progression and emotional relevance. This individual seems to feel it 'degrades' the...

    An open response to the one soul crusade against non-branching stories

    It has been covered many times in these forums, but yet another angry little darling has popped up complaining about stories not having choices or branches and thus not 'belonging' on the site. So here is my response, as also provided to them in the private message they sent me: Let me put this...

    Ever wondered if you're ever a decent writer?

    I AM THE EDGAR ALLAN POE OF INTERNET PORNOGRAPHY! ...No, but seriously I think the important thing is always to write for yourself and judge improvements against yourself. I'm a firm believer in the basic facts that A: I am a member of humanity, B: I like my writing and therefore C: Posting my...

    Marcie and Gina read CHYOA

    If your backlog is running out, fancy another Gentle Jerk? How about 'One Step Away'? https://chyoa.com/story/One-step-away.19290 Or if you REALLY wanted to read another 137 chapters, 'Now Mother's Gone' https://chyoa.com/story/Now-Mother%27s-Gone.14839

    Does anybody know of some good human furniture stories?

    I think I've only written one chapter focussing on it, though there may be some more passing references dotted through my work: https://chyoa.com/chapter/A-chandelier-of-flesh.586232

    Are Single Path Stories cool or not?

    Hehe, just received a message whining about this very thing... Ah, how I enjoy the squealing entitlement of people receiving free entertainment on the internet. Is there any sweeter song around? XP

    Are Single Path Stories cool or not?

    Ah, the ever-vocal minority. I tend to find that those with a proclivity for destructive behaviour are often just frustrated by their own inability to create. They want to shape your thing because they do not believe in their ability to produce such from scratch. One must always pity the...

    Are Single Path Stories cool or not?

    Yeah, as a prolific writer of only single-thread stories on here, I might be a bit biased... (Though thank you for the above support Insertnamehere). I do sometimes encounter commenters who seem to take this as some sort of great offence against the site as a whole. Which personally I just find...

    Come and post your opening lines...

    Hmm, yes I see what you mean... but somehow the ring of starting that next sentence with 'Her' makes me feel like it brings the description in closer... makes you feel more inside her skin. I don't know whether it's just a sense of running on from the previous sentence... or just my aversion to...

    Come and post your opening lines...

    No, no. I agree, that's what I mean by it not quite flowing right. I do have a tendency to go overboard with ellipses and extensions. Though I sometimes go overly poetic with my language on purpose to really hold the reader in a moment, before slamming more physical depictions in with short...

    Come and post your opening lines...

    I'll bite, feel I don't engage enough on the forums here. This is the opening paragraph of my newest story, https://chyoa.com/story/For-all-that-is-Holy.28455: Chastity gazed into the flames… the cold night air sending electric shivers across her skin. She felt goosepimples rising across her...

    And the most popular genre on Chyoa is . . .

    As a writer of a lot of incest/free use stories I thought I'd weigh in here a bit. I'm not entirely sure the current landscape of family make-ups has a great deal to do with it, I mean the subject has been rather lavishly dipped into throughout history. From ancient rome and greece to the...

    'Free Use' Category

    I see a lot of stories that seem to centre around this theme, it's certainly the category that would fit a few of my stories best, rather than 'teen' or 'group sex' which are really rather broad as themes. Any interest/possibility of this becoming a root category?
