Deleted Novel

[Thekherham]

I have deleted my novel Act Naturally. I have some personal business to take care of, plus I'm also going to go through my novel and see if I
can revise it. Somehow I don't like some of the writing I've done, and hopefully I can do better. I will probably be back to this novel in about a week or so.

While I'm here, I have a question. When posting, does it have to be one chapter per day, or can I post more than one chapter?

Follow-up question: Can I post a shorter work, such as a novelette. I have c. 12400-word story which features my furry aliens set during the same time as my Act Naturally novel, but with different characters. It does need work, though.

And finally, I'm working on an interview story featuring my... you guessed it, aliens, but it is formatted in the manner of a transcript. It features an interviewer in the manner of the Oprah Winfrey show, you know, audience participation.

Thanks for your replies.

Where is the bug? Your next novel should be Act Carefully.

I mean, there is no bug so....


Also, yes, you can post many chapters in a day though it is not reccomended since SH doesn't like that and auto deletes the chapter thinking you are a spam bot.

Posting a chapter twice or thrice a day is a healthy amount.

Yes you can, you can post anything here till the time it is an original work which isn't a poem or anything.
Furry are fine till the time you aren't encouraging anything illegal. Keep real animals out of it and make characters 18+.
Also,
You can't say that this species is a special one where they become adults at age of 6 or anything.

Doesn't matter what species it is or at what age they attain sexual maturity lore wise; they must be 18+ if you plan on making them do anything sexual.

 

[K5Rakitan]

Post at whatever pace works for you.

 

[Ninini]

Even posting bug zone is good

 

[Zakuro]

Yes.

Question!
What if the sexual stuff is not portrayed?

Like for example, there is a 13 year old prince and the king throws women (who volunteered) at him so he can gain experience early, thereby getting more used to women. This serves to reduce the chances of him getting honeytrapped by the enemy.
Then the scene just fades out to the next day.

Also, as an added question...

What about if he's a reincarnated 23 year old dude?

Good question!

Well, it's fine, because you are respecting history here.

Even if he is a 23 year old reincarnated dude, till the time you don't write something super creepy which seems to encourage/promote pedophilia, it is fine.
The reason you can't say "but I am respecting biology! Dogs do have gay sex with each other when they are 5!" is because real animals are put under bestiality and that is just straight off the table.

Nice.
I thought I had to remove some lore that I had planned...
Thanks!

Rather than removing lore, if you find yourself in a situation where you absolutely need your character to be creepy, it is better to add more lore instead. SH is very lenient when it comes to this stuff, so trying to show that your porn is not porn because it has enough plot is the best way to not get reported.

You're saying I have to make every character 18+???

I'm not writing about your human dressed up like a furry, I'm writing about aliens that have fur. You can call them 'furry' if you want to (I guess that makes your cat and dog a 'furry') but the operative word is alien. And these aliens become sexually mature at 15. What are they supposed to do, wait three more years before they can mate?

If you're so set on forcing them to be 18+ before they can mate, I'll be sure to leave out any sexual activity in my stories.

You mean if I write a story about a dog named Billy meeting a female (and she's in heat... OMG can I even say that?) they have to be eighteen before they can have sex.

Dogs and cats and my aliens are not humans.
Now that I have my novelette 'Claws' complete I'm thinking of posting a transcript type of story featuring a family of aliens being interviewed by someone along the lines of Oprah Winfrey or Phil Donahue (I guess that dates me a bit lol).

If not I'll have to go back to 'Act Naturally' and then another story, all featuring my Tereskàdians.

If the sexual stuff is implied but not described or portrayed, it doesn't break site rules. Ai-chan's story The Hounds of Hell will at some point imply that Carl had sex with his sister Maya, both under 18. However, it's only implied, as in they slept together and woke up feeling conflicted about doing something that society would scorn them for it. But Ai-chan does not describe the actual sexual procedure, so it is okay.

Yes, it's okay. To those of you who say it's not, Tony has already cleared it. The part that is not allowed is graphic description of the sex with minors. If the story simply said, "Tommy had a passionate night with Sara under the kitchen table after dropping their erasers at the same time.", that is fine.

The animals can mate at age of 5 or something cuz that is what happens in nature, but your aliens absolutely have to be 18+ if they are shaped human like.

*nods*

You can have them mate if you aren't describing it.
Like you can say your MC is 3 years old and his parents are 18 years old.
But don't like...describe two 15 year olds getting hot together.

Why do my aliens have to be 18? They're aliens, not humans.

Shaped human like?? You mean, if they walk on their hindlegs (hindpaws, I guess), they're human like, even if they look like foxes and as I've said already have fur and a tail.

All right, I know how to solve this. I won't mention any years. Why do we to say character A and character B mated when they were x years old. All I need to say is that they mated. Well, most likely there won't be any descriptive sex. Come to think of it, the story I'm working on now has characters that are basically cubs (c. 10 years old, so definitely no sex. She will however, meet a young male her age, but like I said, definitely no sex.)

But like Ai-Chan said, if sex is implied but not described (I'm thinking of some future story here) then it should be o.k. as long as I don't mention any ages. I'm thinking of the ...They walked into the bedroom hand in hand (or paw in paw) ***Break*** Later, she walked into the kitchen... blah blah blah. You know they've had sex but no description.

I dunno bro... they could've just cuddled!

Yeah, they could have, but... we don't know, do we? She might have a cub twenty days later.

I carefully made blurry ages on my novel that takes place in middle ages because of that very reason, since it is smut. "Barely adult" is very broad and illustrative.
Seems like it's fine.
Also, furry is fine, so long as it's just in writing and not straight up bestiality.
Another easy way to make things work is using Lunar Years or whatever whichamicallit age you wanna come up with, so long as you make a conversion at some point that says.
"a year in Plotoveniscus takes 35012 days. Those who live have a lifespan of short 10 years, which would be enough for 12 generations of human beings to live and wilt away" Bingo

Of course there is no bestiality. The aliens in my stories do not have sex with humans or any other humanoid species. They're incapable of doing that so that point is moot. Case closed.

I hope you're all enjoying my novelette Claws, but it's time for me to move on. I'm reposting the novel I had posted a while back called 'Act Naturally' which takes place basically in the same setting as Claws, but with different characters. While Claws took place in the fictitious city of Westover, Ontario, and Act Naturally takes place first in Hollywood and then Colbert's Landing in northern Ontario, Colbert's Landing is mentioned in both stories.

Posted the first chapter of 'Act Naturally.'
