    Powerscaling: Tell me about the most powerful character in all your novel/s

    In one of my D&D settings dragons are like Fusions from Stephen Universe: multiple people sharing one body. The planet is billions of people travelling together through the cosmos, so I realized the entire world is basically one dragon. This meta-being can manifest an avatar to interact with...

    release timing

    Lol yeah but at the very least I can shift my new chapters a bit. I'm thinking one every 42 hours, instead of every 48 hours.

    release timing

    That's a great and obvious idea, thank you. Sometimes I'm so blind.

    Thoughts about this non-smut chapter?

    Thank you for pointing out the pacing issue! I'll think it over, and see what I can do to rewrite the opening.

    release timing

    Oh yeah, I did my timezone math wrong. Maybe 9am PST on Saturday would be better for the European crowd? I dunno.

    Thoughts about this non-smut chapter?

    I mostly have experience writing romance/smut, not action or drama, so I'd love to hear any thoughts you have about this chapter! Refuge 2.1: Beginning of the End This occurs after the characters were introduced in earlier chapters, but that probably won't be necessary to understand what's...

Currently I'm publishing at 5pm PST Tues/Thurs, and 7am PST Sat/Sun. I have no idea if that's working well...

    Feedback on my first chapter?

    Thank you so much for reading! I guess my original instincts were better. I took the exposition back out, and will try to find a ways to work in more excitement. Thanks! This is really helpful!

    Feedback on my first chapter?

    First impressions are important, so I decided to revisit and edit the first chapter in my story. I would greatly appreciate any feedback you can provide! This involves awkward sexual exploration between a neurodivergent intersex person and her childhood best friend. It starts tame, but gets a...

    Good writing site I recommend

    For anyone using Google docs, check out the new Tabs feature. It lets you organize and rearrange your chapters! This was all I really needed. https://support.google.com/docs/answer/15499791?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop

    Fetishes

    There's lots of word fetishes out there, but I've never actually met anyone interested in exotic ones like vore or whatever. The most common "fetish" people want is D/s play. The weirdest fetish I have is polyamory. It sounds vanilla, but it's really not. Many people SAY they are poly. I'm a...
