Mature Stories?

Stories marked "Mature" make up about 35.0% of novellas

Genres

I took the top 1-3 most obvious tags of a story and calculated percentages from there. So one story could be counted as Fantasy, romance, and action. This might not be the way I do this when I have all the data, but it makes the most sense for now. 

Romance: 30.8%

Fantasy: 22.8%

Mystery: 10.2%

Paranormal: 9.0%

Scifi: 7.7%

Adventure: 7.1%

Action: 4.3%

Horror: 4.9%

less than 4.3%:  dystopian, horror, thriller, fan fiction, and other sub-genres  like high, low, dark, and urban fantasy, romcoms, teen fiction, crime, etc. 

Special thanks to @MMicheleWilly for helping clean up some of the data!

Note: There are 114 stories that I did not easily find a prompt for. So mystery numberssss
