Since Wattpad is banning smut (And I'm assuming that means a lot of people are going to abandon the site), do you have an Ao3 you're crossposting/going to post your fics on?

@LVE_32 Update: I did a quick Google and looked at Wattpad's guidelines, and I should be absolutely fine here. I do not write porn, I write stories where intimacy supports a wider narrative. My characters are all 18+ consenting adults, and the sex scenes are all very vanilla. So ye, things here should continue as normal :-)

@TVAescapee Hiya, I think that because my stories are more fluff and plot-based than just filth, I should be fine. Wattpad actually banning smut is so unlikely because it's literally their whole business model; even their paid stories are mafia bosses dating 16-year-olds, bdsm, students hooking up etc. So ye, I'm just seeing what happens with that. I do have A03 under the same username but I hate that site and it sort of gives me anxiety even thinking about it now, because the people that work for it basically abused me a few years ago, they were really awful for basically no reason (I mentioned in a comment section I am a self-published author and they harassed me for weeks after because of that). They banned many of my stories out of spite, so you can't actually read most of my stuff on there because they permanently took them down. Sorry about that. We'll see what happens. If things do get really bad here, I will have to go back to A03 because I love writing for you guys, but that'll definitely be an utter last resort.
