I've never actually thought about it like this before! It does fit with the way the voice comes and goes, based on my experience. Thanks for the perspective; it's a work in progress, but I hope one day I'll be able to recognise this pattern better.

I'm not trying to imply that this 'voice' comes from anything other than my own thoughts. I will admit, however, that I negotiate with it as if it's a 'separate' voice from the one that gives me my main thoughts day to day, but that's because it makes it easier for me to visualise and control...

On this thinly-veiled validation-seeking post, I wanted to ask all the writers out there, erotica or not, how you personally deal with your own "voice in the back of your head". Many would call it their "inner critic", but I think the former name is more apt for mine, since it often doesn't...

Wow! Never expected the author of the branch to comment here! Glad you're enjoying what I've been doing with your work. It's probably not necessary, but I wanted to thank you for the premise you set up; I don't know why exactly, but something about it sparked the inspiration within me and...

When it comes to criticism, I think the tone you go with needs to be fit for the situation. I assume that most writers on Chyoa are relatively amateur at actual story writing, so criticising harshly is more likely to demotivate them and scare them off. This is also why I think adding in positive...

Hey there, sorry for not responding for a while, but I wasn't expecting anyone else to come along, haha. This is the third time I've heard something similar to that, and I'm beginning to worry that my ideas on writing characters is innately flawed and stereotypical. Nevertheless, though I'm...

I came up with this in relation to another question: "Is it wrong to write erotica if you don't like to write sex scenes?", but I soon realised that this can be answered using the question in the topic. Except, that just answers a question with another question; one arguably less defined than...

Hey insertnamehere, thanks for the constructive criticism and commendation! Yeah, when you put it in front of me like that, I does read kinda hokey. I'm also super bad when it comes to overuse of exclamation marks, since I 'hear' voice lines in my head when I write, so when a character is...

Hey, thanks for the review and kind words! Really helps me understand what's going on. A lot of what you've mentioned is stuff that I've been considering at the back of my mind, so I'll try to keep it in mind for the future. The 'stereotypes' thing is a bit difficult, considering is the sort of...

I'm a guy who has dreamed about making stories for a while, and somehow decided to pull the trigger here of all places. My main story I've been working on is the "Yellow Fever" branch of the Sexual Privilege story; the premise is that the MC is a boy who is granted the privilege to request any...

As a relatively new writer myself, the story I'm currently working with has a sort of landmarks approach to it. I generally find myself planning important set pieces that I want the story to have, but won't know how I get there until I get there. Even then, the landmark scenes I planned out have...

Listening to these makes me wonder how many of us writers suffer the trait of what I will refer to as "Writing By The Rulebook". I think of WBTR as the act of consciously changing our writing in order to fit into defined notions of what writing "should" be. In essence, if you've ever watched...

This is a random question that popped into my mind that I thought was interesting, so don't expect any real in depth explanations here lol. I suppose when I say "philosophies", I'm meaning the little idiosyncrasies, or general things that guide what you do and do not write. An example I can...

I'm not particularly sure as to how long a chapter should be in review before being approved, but my chapter for Sexual Privilege has been in review for the better part of a month, and I'm getting close to finishing the next chapter after it...

It's been a bit, but maybe I can still answer your question. As I stated, I'm quite new to writing, so I haven't yet grown accustomed to how my writing would be received. I was trying to touch on the concern that my writing would be not received well based on my desire to add in some of my more...

I can definitely understand where you're coming from here; there's obviously a difference between, say, porn and racy scenes in a sitcom. But I was also wondering how one would separate things in the murky middle ground between the two; I'm pretty sure there are many examples on both sides...

This is a random question that popped into my head as I've been writing. What separates an Erotic story (i.e. porn stories) from a story with Erotic elements? Is there a difference at all? If there is, where is the line? Certainly, the fact we are writing on Chyoa means we are putting a level...

Man, it's like you're reading my mind here :D! Once again, that suggestion is very similar to what I would want to write in for the branch if I decided to move forward with it; I would want each girl go through an 'arc' or sorts with the MC focusing on them as characters and having them reaching...

First off, I want to thank you for checking out my branch of Sexual Privilege; I hope you've enjoyed what I've done with it so far. I will admit, much of what you suggested for how impregnation gets incorporated into the story is ideas that I have considered myself, especially the part about...

I'm a person who has just recently started uploading chapters of his own to Chyoa. Admittedly, I never expected to really get into writing erotica but somehow, I find this site is the easiest to get my ideas out there. But as a beginner, and one with delusions of making their stories enjoyable...
