The very nature of a branching story creates a huge problem. Writer has to inform his readers about important stuff. Considering that a reader may follow only one branch, it seems like a good idea to include the same\simmilar bits of exposition in every branch or they will end up confused. But...

I am doing some writing after a rather lengthy pause and discovered that I feel... bored when writing sex. The mechanical part - poses, A going into B, orgasm descriptions, tempo and angles. It does not feel like a creative, exciting activity but like a monotonous task. It feels like I am adding...

If you are a new writer don't start with yet another fanfiction of a megapopular character or a "fresh" brother-fucks-sister masterpiece or ENP\mind control number billion. Few will read it. Why would they go for a barebones new story written by a novice instead of the same established story...

Read the example above. What can you notice at the first glance? The author has a descriptive style and loves their metaphors. And it is fine. How many colorful words to use is an artistic choice and a matter of taste. (Note that I personally tend to skip such bloated dialogues. Reading only the...

I favorite your story and you'll never get another notification from me. I like the introduction chapter and you'll also never get any other notification from me. I bookmark each and every dead end in the story, clearly expressing my hope that you will continue. I do the same as above but with...

I love new technologies. I spent way too many hours trying to get good-looking naked females and\or sex scenes with Stable Diffusion. I often use AIs for ideation and getting through writer's block. Some of my chapters on Chyoa are heavily edited AI-generated stuff. I love all the perspectives...

"Oh, you are one of those lucky individuals who was granted a license to open a brothel in this recently conquered region? I don't know what you did to please the Crown so much but if you play your cards right, you have a chance to prosper. Several trade routes go through this land. And a...

Which style of those do you prefer? I think it is a very important part of an interactive story and it isn't given enough attention by many chyoa writers. How spoilery should those be? How important it is to warn readers about fetishes\themes they may not like? Are questions that require a...

I am so tired of that. You write\read non-con! Oh, that means you aren't raping left in right just because you don't want to get in jail (or an even more absurd version for females "how can you want to be raped?"). Enjoying incest stories? You must be masturbating thinking about all of your...

I am a bit worried about the recent Chyoa trend involving various content creators. Maybe more than a bit While I understand that it is a subset of "fuck a celebrity" type of fantasies and don't judge anyone or anything like that but, IMO, this is a huge can of worms. Celebrities, like pop...

I am considering making a story featuring the plane of Ravnica (from MTG), it has so much potential for this kind of stories and with MTG being PG13(-ish) it will never be explored in canon. Each guild falls rather nicely into different views on sex Rakdos: Sex as entertainment+BDSM Grull...

Non-erotic and miscellaneous categories are not a good place to have guides in them. Who will look for guides there? Guides can be found either by accident or when they are new\updated. We have some really good stuff (like guides written by RicoLouis) that deserve to be seen by more Chyoa users

I am quite surprised that we don't have a centralized thread for this. Sometimes some new authors post something like "please, write in my stories" but this is not a proper way to inform someone about a story they may want to contribute to. Here are my invitation and an example of what info I...

Some time ago, I played in this little game - https://forum.chyoa.com/threads/space-pirates-tale-bdsm-rpg.1857/ Sadly, it failed to progress to actual space pirating because even taking control over the crew required a lot of time. I want to launch my own version but I'll try to avoid the...

I'd love to have some kind of "XXX edited your chapter YYY" notification. I prefer to know when author\owner\editor edits my chapters. Similar notifications for liked or bookmarked chapters would be nice, too

DEAR FANFICTION WRITERS, PURPOSE OF EROTIC FANFICTION IS TO EXPLORE HOW CHARACTER X WOULD BEHAVE IN EROTIC SITUATIONS NOT TURNING ALL FEMALE CHARACTERS INTO SUBMISSIVE SLUTS TO PLEASURE YOUR SELF-INSERTS. THANK YOU Yep, I got frustrated after reading few fanfiction stories on chyoa today. Most...

I am editing\rewriting bunch of my old chapters and it is a cringy experience. Also, I often read stories that have potential but would really benefit from being written in something more similar to English. I think my 10 years of experience at chyoo\chyoa allow me to give some advises (Note...

I mean something like this Do you do X? Yes (5 more chapters) No (3 more chapters) Yes, eagerly (1 more chapter) It should be optional for ones who don't want this but enabling something like this will make reading a more enjoyable experience.

I have finally started reviving this old classic. Editing my pre-chyoa chapters is a slow, painful, and cringe-inducing process but I always loved the premise of this story and hated seeing it lying dormant for years. Feedback is very welcome
