Aww, that sucks.
Heh, I get this all the time. I love it. It means my readers are engaging with my characters.
You're on my list. There are just too many on it, lol!
Yup. Just generally when they try to dictate what you're writing. I blogged about this a while back...
I write cause I have to, lol! Story goes, 'You have to write meeee!' And eventually I do. I had Storms in my head for literally years... It was muuuuch more violent in the beginning, though.
Stepping outside your comfort zone can be very rewarding sometimes. I personally like stories that force me to face things that I find scary or painful.
You know, in my experience, if you can justify it properly, they let you post most things. You just have to write it the right way.
I've written a kid actually raping another kid... Like, recently. The scenes themselves faded to black, but there were flashbacks with some detail. I talked to the admins before I posted it, and was told it was fine as long as I put content warning on every single chapter.
He/him. Thanks for not assuming, though.
Er... I think you'll find there isn't actually a 'no incest under any circumstances' rule. It's not on the list of banned topics. Sasha Distan wrote a story about a pair of brothers for an anthology just a few years ago. It's just a topic that needs to be handled with care, and carry the proper warnings. There's even an 'incest' tag under sex when you post stories. It is totally allowed on GA.
...that was a lot of replies. I missed out on all the fun going to bed at a decent time. Oh, well. Good morning, everyone!
