    I’m trying to add a new chapter to my story “Casino Night” (https://cartoon.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=600096930), but after I paste the chapter title and text into the appropriate boxes and click POST NEW CHAPTER, the boxes go blank and the chapter doesn’t get posted. I tried logging out and back in, and restarting my machine in case the problem was on my end, but it didn’t help. Can you? 

    Honestly, I have no clue what’s going on. Hopefully @manta2g or @DemonGoddess can figure it out.

    I just posted a new chapter to one of my stories, but I can’t change the story's tags or description.

     

    I can interact with everything else successfully, except the "EDIT STORY INFO" option.

     

    Every time I try to update the description and tags, I end up at an empty page with the URL below.

    The Edit Story Info option is not working at the moment. @manta2g is aware of the issue, and is working to resolve it as she has time. In the meantime, if you want to provide the missing tag information and updated description to me, I can actually edit that for you.

    I don’t think that I will be. At most I may have a couple more chapters but it’s more just a story I had to get out of my head in this particular fandom.

    I suppose I’m more asking exactly how. As an example:

    “Summary: An (insert fandom name here) fanfic. Jane has a problem and...”

    Or should it be:

    “Summary: Jane has a problem and… An (insert fandom name here) fanfic.”

    Either way works. It’s mostly to alert potential readers at this point, but should the fandom ever wind up with a category of its own, it’ll be easier to spot your story and move it if you put the fandom name first, as in your first example.

    Hmm, that’s interesting. I usually focus on making sure the story is worked out. Most of them are about whatever the characters need to know to push things forward. Although this doesn’t always apply in a more… adult context.

    I’m a dedicated pantser. :lol: I do have an idea of the basic story, but characters tend to get away from time to time.

    I was thinking about this partly because of a story I was reading here. The story is basically 3 chapters featuring 3 characters. But I noticed that one of the characters had two chapters devoted to them. Whereas another character basically got a single chapter devoted to them. Which has me wondering exactly how much the author likes the character which got more story better. Or found them more interesting.

    Similarly, I noticed that a story I’m writing has a longer chapter than the others. To some extent it’s because I really like the character and partly because I’m enjoying the story I’m telling.

    Do you think the amount of time you spend on a character is a reflection of your interest in the character?
     

    For me, absolutely. I have certain characters I truly enjoy writing for, and a large part of the editing process for me is making sure I’m not giving other characters short shrift.

    I received a response from the writer today via email!

     

    She said

     

    “I am honored that you are a fan of Loser, as the story still holds a special place in my heart. Unfortunately, I did not keep a copy of my own story after deleting it. I've heard that there are copies floating around and give anyone permission to share it if they do find it and would never ask for anything financial from it. If you can find it, please enjoy it. 

     
    Thank you for thinking of Chase and Tyler. It was a special time in my life and am truly honored that they are remembered. 
     
    Warm thoughts,
    K"
     
    Would it now be ok for someone to share a copy, BronxWench?

    If the author is giving permission, then we won’t object if anyone has a copy and is willing to share it. I also received a copy of the email, so I can attest that it came from the author’s account.

    Thank you.  Is there a reason the edit button for story information does not work?

     

    It’s something our coder will address. There are a few functions that did not get activated properly in the new archive code, and since I’m not a coder, I couldn’t tell you what might have gone wrong. But we are aware of the issue, and it’s on the list of Things To Do. In the interim, I can access most of the functions, although there are a couple that won’t work for me, either.

    I’m actually having a similar issue. It won’t let me login, but I’m not sure if that’s because I missed the new verification period.

    I’ve emailed you the links for activation and password reset. I have a suspicion Yahoo marked our original email to you as spam. They didn’t take kindly to us emailing all our members.

    Just now noticed I misplaced my latest entry,

    Tale 3 - The Bath  Toph, Katara, Suki   https://cartoon.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=600096946

    It’s currently Avatar - The Last Airbender > Crossovers > FemmeSlash - Female/Female

    There is no crossover, just Toph, Katara, and Suki with Aang and Soka also talked about.

    I moved it to Avatar - The Last Airbender > FemmeSlash - Female/Female for you.

    https://members.adult-fanfiction.org/profile.php?no=1297021771 Again forgive me and please cut me some slack, I ‘ve mentioned I am brand new to this website and I am still figuring out how this works. The link should be my profile as it is the name I used and the date fits.

    I’ve emailed you the links to let you activate the account and set a password. The instructions are in the email.

  12. As I understand it, the one-shot is a single chapter in the multi-chapter Scooby Gang Time story. If that’s the case, I’m going to say that the site rules wouldn’t prohibit taking that single chapter and using it to start the spinoff story. I would just ask that you stick a little note somewhere, even as a footnote author’s note to the chapter, that this was originally a one-shot in Scooby Gang Time, and it took on a life of its own. You can add a link to the original story as well.

    So, I’ve been working on a spin-off idea for something from my Scooby Gang Time story.

    What I’m trying to figure out is if I should make the chapter “one shot” the first chapter of the new spin-off?

    Or should I simply reference the chapter from Scooby Gang Time?

     

    I think it largely depends on whether or not referring back to the one-shot chapter would be sufficient to bring readers up to speed. There’s also the question of new readers, who might not have read your Scooby Gang Time story.

    I posted the latest chapter to a story late last week. The intention was to bold the words “The End” and the author’s note on the end.

    However, after posting it, this doesn’t seem to be how it looks after posting. Did I do something wrong? Or is this just an error?

     

    I’m going to say that it’s part of the ongoing glitches with the Rich Text Editor. In other words, it’s not you, it’s us.

    I want to showcase my writing in a way that attracts a large audience on adult websites. What are some tips or strategies for maximizing visibility and engagement with my content?

    I’ve moved this post to a more appropriate thread.

    Now to the question.

    The first thing is to identify the best websites for your content. For example, certain sites have content restrictions. Here on AFF, our Terms of Service and Content Guidelines are pretty clear, and spell out what we do and don’t allow. But if a site doesn’t allow, for example, fiction based on actual persons or celebrities, posting a story about a real person or celebrity isn’t going to go over well.

    Once you’ve figured out what site or sites best suit your content, you need to make sure your story is going to attract readers and hold their attention. If you are able to post a summary, make it catchy. Spend a bit of time reading book summaries and blurbs to see what the professionals do. PROOFREAD AND FORMAT your story. Nothing is a bigger turn-off than typos, misused words, missing punctuation, poor grammar (unless it’s required for a piece of dialogue), and walls of text. I’ve put down published books that I paid for, and refused to finish reading them because of poor editing. You might be posting something online for free, but I truly think you still need to polish your story.

    Some sites, like AFF, have forums or community boards where you can promote your story. If that’s available, use it. Include the catchy blurb, story tags, and all the other things that might catch a reader’s attention. AFF does not support cover images in the archive, and we don’t allow images in the forum that are NSFW, but some sites do allow cover images. We use our forums to allow readers to engage with authors, while other sites let you reply to reviews directly.

    That’s what comes to mind for now.

    And now I cannot log into the archives either. 

    No error is displayed upon entering my email address and password, just no entry.

    On trying to reset the password, the email address is not recognized.

    The email address I have in the archive is different from the email address you’re using here on the forum. Is that correct?

    I’ve emailed you new links to the address I have on record for the archive.
