BronxWench

I’ve updated the information for you, and replied to your email.

::snickers:: We wenches will always fuck you up, so I get that. And I doubt you’ll have screaming hordes of wenches descend on you in protest. But certain terms are emotionally fraught, and I am not at my most tactful when I have a review board full of people hurling invective and reporting each other to me. Makes me want to wipe the entire review board for the story in question...and if this is the crossover, you’ll have the Naruto readers peeking in.

I believe this is your account: http://members.adult-fanfiction.org/profile.php?no=39, in which case the email is a fandomination account. If you’re not able to access that account, you can email us at tos_team@adult-fanfiction.org and let us know which account we should use instead. We can update that information for you, and then you should be able to revalidate the account. Of course, if you hit a snag with that, we’re happy to help sort that out as well.

Oh, tread carefully there… If I wind up having to field a dozen irate emails about inappropriate content, I will make you edit it out, or take it down. The Naruto subdomain gives me enough headaches with the cuckold/harem crowd.

What was the pen name on the account? I can look into this and see what I can determine. From there, we might be able to get you back into the account.

That’s a completely common trope, so we’d have no issues there, even if other authors used that scenario. No one can expect to have a bath reserved as a unique things, after all. So, hopefully, someone will take that challenge for you!

I feel I should point out that basing a story off another author’s fan fiction is not permitted, unless you have prior permission AND that original author has sent an email to us themselves telling us they’re giving permission for the use of their story. Otherwise, we would see that as plagiarism, and that means we would delete not only the story, but the account of the person posting it. So, be proactive, and get permission before you write anything based on someone else’s story.

I tell them to put “Bronx” on my Starbucks cups…

BronxWench was my gamer name for ages, and I kept it as my name over on FFN. Because I am seriously creative, it’s also my pen name everywhere else, except fro what I publish. Then I turn into Morwen Navarre. Honestly, I sometimes don’t answer to my real name…

It seems to me the actual question here is whether or not we’ll allow you to post your Patreon link. Semantics and personal views on celebrity fiction aside, we don’t allow Patreon links in stories or profiles. That part is actually rather straightforward, and not subject to negotiation. However, a celebrity’s public persona and image can be deemed to be a form of copyrighted material, since they derive their income from their person itself. Celebrity impersonators use characteristics in a manner which supports the parody provisions of the Fair Use portion of the copyright laws. You can find a discussion of Fair Use here. In subsequent sections, it does address instances where fair use involving actors is discussed.

The usual cause of that is a repeating character, often used as a scene break marker, which triggers a text overrun. The author would need to remove any repeating characters to fix the issue, but without knowing which story is affected, that is merely my best guess.

Then I’d suggest you use the first fandom to appear as the subdomain where you post the story, if there is not going to be a dominant setting. Or perhaps use the fandom you are most at home with, and if it’s not where the story begins, clarify in a brief author’s note that the story will indeed incorporate both fandoms. As long as it only appears in one subdomain, we’re good.

Nope. We don’t allow cross-posting in multiple fandoms unless the second posting is in another language. What we do is look to see which fandom provides the main setting for the story, and that’s where the story is posted. So, if your story occurs in the Naruto universe and setting, but incorporates characters from Inuyasha, you post it to Naruto as a crossover.

The idea of VR gamers stuck in the game is not unique to Sword Art Online. There’s been any number of instances of that being used, like the movies Jumanji and Tron, and more novels than I could name quickly. So I think it’s fine under Original Fantasy/Adventure. Oh, and you’re never stupid. It’s a good question!

I’m not finding that email address anywhere in the membership database.

Story Author This is circa 2005.

Well, sometimes I revisit a theme I used in an earlier submission. And sometimes I get bitten by an entirely new idea. But in general, the primary theme is the occasion, such as Hallowe’en, or whatever anyone celebrates in December, that sort of thing.

It’s sort of “Hallowe’en! Go ghoulies!” Or mostly.

I not only missed last year, I also still owe reads and reviews… Last year was horribly busy, and crazy. But this year might prove better!

Yes, there was a mishap involving all my stories going “poof.” It’s a teensy bit frustrating, but also an opportunity, so I’m going to look at it as a good thing. I might tease out some snippets from the big draft, things that weren’t going to make it into the final cut. I always put in to much, and decide it’s all hopeless exposition, so there’s lots to prune away that could stand alone, if I do it right.

There is nothing that makes my day more than a review, and reposting all my old stuff is, I think, a blessing in disguise if it means new readers will see it. So… Thank you, from the bottom of my deviant little heart! “Almost Home” does have a surreal feel to it, and it’s definitely not one of my more honed pieces, but it actually set in motion a very rough draft for a novel. It’s sitting on my hard drive, in a disreputable state, but it will get written one day. I debated trying to tweak this one before I reposted it, but in a very odd way, I sort of want to see how I grow as a writer, so I think I’ll leave some warts out there, to remind myself this is a skill that needs honing continuously. “Special of the Day” was a bit of fluff from me because I’m not always very fluffy, and sometimes even I need to lighten things up a bit. Two stories that evolved during the challenge prompts were a lot darker, and I needed the respite. “Play It Safe” followed along, and yes, I’d say that it was love that’s built between Sam and Mori. I started out writing straight relationships, so I’m delighted I didn’t lose my touch with “Promises.” I might have done a bit better with the transition from the elevator to Miles’ quarters, I agree. I plead insanity and the limits of flash fiction. ”Compassion” will always be a piece very close to my heart. It’s dark, and nasty, and I regret not putting out more flash fiction about the Arenin. I think I might need to do just that one day. As far as “Hazardous Duty” I can only point to Sam and Mori and blame them. The prompt word had no sooner passed before my eyes when they chimed in, and again, it was that bit of fluff that makes everything else feel better for a while. I’m slowly getting everything back up again, and while some things will get a much-needed tweak based on old reviews, I think one or two will be out there in all their imperfect glory. I’m also hoping this will kick the muse in the posterior, and get some things moving again. I hate leaving stories unfinished! But once again, thank you, both for reading and for taking the time to leave your thoughts. It really does make my day!

Honestly? I’d stick it in General, because you really cover all bases, and any MF or M/Transwoman content will get the MM readers upset if they are deeply offended by het relationships. As far as DarkFic versus Erotica, if it’s heavy on rape, I’d go DarkFic myself.
