Because I seldom lurk around this place, let alone post anything here, I'm considering closing my account and switching everything over to my DeviantArt account. I haven't made a definitive decision yet. I need to find out what I can get away with first. Obviously, there are certain stories that I can't post here without getting flagged for breaching the TOS and having my account suspended or terminated against my will. Furthermore, I write erotica, and sometimes there are situations that are unpleasant or can be misconstrued as pornography due to the personality traits of a particular character and/or the context of the scene involving said character. Sometimes, scenes can be outright brutal. I am not glorifying anything, nor am I attempting to teach a lesson. There are no morals to the story, only within the story between the characters themselves.
The main reason I'm considering closing the account is so I can consolidate my writing and art in one place. I've had the DeviantArt account longer than this one, but I didn't feel like associating my art and writing at the time of opening that account. With that being said, I don't intend to self edit or censor my work to fit the arbitrary standards of a website. I post what I know I can get away with; unaltered, uncensored, no holds barred. If I am equally as restricted there as I am here, I may consider other options. I haven't decided, and quite frankly, I don't have time. I have other, more important priorities. Since my father's death, I stopped caring about tedious things and have decided to simplify my life to the best of my ability. It's easier to have control when unnecessary things/feelings/thoughts are purged from oneself, thus freeing one to single-mindedly pursue what they love. Nightmares are real. It's the dreams that you have to worry about.
