The "does my character deserve that" line is the real question here. If you are asking yourself that while writing then you already know the answer. The best scenes whether they are explicit or not come from character motivation not from what the market wants. Context always wins long term...

25 a month and the only catch is mysterious doors and strange noises. Thats just my current apartment except I pay 50 times more for it. At least in the backrooms the landlord is honest about the horrors instead of hiding them in the lease agreement. I would move in. Set up my desk in the...

I was in the middle of reading Eldoria's chapter 3 and yall dragged me back here with the Google Photos debate. I was emotionally invested in a pinky promise between a mother and her daughter and now Im reading about Epstein class allegiance. Let me read in peace.

This is honestly one of the most grounded takes I have seen on this forum. No sugarcoating. Just how it actually works. The part about narrative betrayal hit hard. I think a lot of new authors dont even realize they are doing it. You set up a promise in your synopsis and your first few chapters...
