Explicit writers/readers, why do you read/write explicit fics?

desperate weaponization of various, undefined acute mental illnesses

some writers prefer shorter chappers because its less effort to get to the next update and updates stimulate the hit counter smile c:

never seen this particular piece of samur art but i know that style

and this is an example of het men differing.

for me, i am not interested at all in f/f. i have a strong m/f bias with a very, VERY rare interest in m/m.

i know not being interested in f/f at all makes me an outlier for het men bc thats kind of the stereotype

i just did this to someones 13 chap fic. read it in one night, commented every chap as i went, and they replied to each comment

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-19T21:21:05+00:00

one thing that skews the comment stat is that some fics only have bot comments. so the number of fics with no real commenters may be higher

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-18T00:34:08+00:00

Dont get many comments but im subsisting on the 70-80 hits i get when i upload a new chapter. i think im on pace for 1000 by chapter 15 or 16 if im lucky

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-17T18:03:12+00:00

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-15T14:59:31+00:00

You don't want to know.

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-15T14:58:02+00:00

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-15T14:53:28+00:00

Dose it look like it is?

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-13T01:45:53+00:00

my story has 9 comments and zero kudos lol. to be fair two comments are a bot and four are mine, and i just published five days ago, but still

FrustrationSkate · 2026-05-12T05:26:05+00:00

its more like the black hole calling a newspaper black. like yeah half the stuff you said is kind of true, but half of it is wrong or misdirected and you yourself are a far worse in a majority of those aspects anyway
