    Well, I might start posting here after all.

    Thanks for the warning AnonJohn, lol! No worries, I never ask for reviews. My book got approved a little while ago, so it's up. I'll post a few chapters every couple days until it's all up on the site. But I'm not asking anyone to read it. A long non-smutty romance. I honestly don't...

    @GearMagical good post and interesting take! So I agree but only to a point. I grew up on Twilight, so I'm not that old. And yes, I think most of the writers on the forums are a little bit older than they are trying to appear. But on the other hand, you gotta remember that my books aren't...

    Well, I might start posting here after all.

    What I'm doing is similar. This is not an advert, at least not intentionally. I started with Twilight as a vehicle, because I liked the story but hated the book. And I wrote the first volume of my series to loosely align with canon, because lots of my friends were into it. But it veers off...

    Well lots to think about. I might just kill it.

    Well, I might start posting here after all.

    I didn't know that. So, it's hidden by default and they can't even see it on lists? If that's the case, there's not much point.

    New stuff or fix old stuff

    Never look back. It takes a long time to not be embarrassed by the stuff one's written five years ago.

    I've heard that before. But I use the character names. Wouldn't be right. The funny thing (or not so funny) is I don't even like fan fiction. I think it's theft. I should really just kill it. I'm this close. But I'll post here and see if it catches a few readers. Seventh time's a charm.

    LOL! Yeah... you know, I've neither read it nor watched the movie. My books aren't p@rn. (There are some "good parts," but buried deeply and not like that.) They're not that popular. Honestly I don't know why I bother. Nervous tic.

    You don't have to like them. Can't please everyone. You can love'em, leave'em, burn 'em with fire. No diff, I appreciate anyone who takes time out of their busy day. :)

    Account Deletion

    OK, I'll get right on it.

    Well, I might start posting here after all.

    Leave it to me to find out. (sigh) A bunch of loud-mouth bullies on the forum were giving me grief because I gave a book review that they deemed mean and hurtful. (Over there, no one knows what a review is. The writers all swap reviews to boost their ratings.) So I basically said if they want...

    Well, I might start posting here after all.

    I've got three finished novels to post. And working on a fourth. They're romances. Fanfic very loosely based on Twilight. I've been lurking here for a couple months. In the forums. I like everyone I've met. And even though I can be a cantankerous, somewhat acrimonious sort of person...

    This thing is AI isn't it?

    GPT almost always changes the meaning. Can't help but do so. Since it doesn't know the meaning in the first place. Then again, all too often the original authors don't really know, either. So no diff.

    This thing is AI isn't it?

    The penultimate sentence is ambiguous. " I look forward to seeing how his journey unfolds, driven by determination rather than supernatural aid." Does this mean the storyline is driven by determination rather than supernatural aid? That the story's character referenced here as "his" is...

    Fanfics and Monetization

    Now it's all about the eye of the beholder. One person's totally original story idea is another person's sadly derivative copycat of all that's come before. Change some place names, shuffle some character names, flip a gender or two, and voila. Totally original story idea.

    How to write previous relationships.

    There are two possibilities. One, the past between the characters will color how they interact when they meet again. If it does, that's your entree to explain why they're being weird around each other. Or two, the past between the characters has no meaningful effect on how they deal with each...
