Dylan, This is mostly a reaction to something @amul mentioned...I had no idea that one a tag is used it's there forever and then applied to all chapters thereafter. My thoughts on this is either a specialized tag system for what I call 'one-offs', topics that might be offensive but are there for plot purposes only in a single chapter. If a new type of tag isn't possible, when there is potential controversial subjects which probably won't appear in additional chapters, do NOT tag it and place a warning about said content before the story starts, naming the content, that it's there for plot purposes only and isn't likely to be seen elsewhere in the series. I've seen some authors do this on other platforms and it seems to work well. Now there was another comment he made that I think applies to everyone...asking your readers for suggestions on how to direct the story as it continues.... If you are writing specifically for **your readers** than this is a fine approach...so go for it. But if you are writing for **yourself** this is a very bad idea...so let me explain... I write what pleases and appeals to me and when/if I decide to share it...if others enjoy it than great. I started a couple series on SlaveNow (miss that and my other yahoo groups), one was called **Modern Slavery 101**. I had a lot of people who liked it even though it was on the tame side compared to most of the other fare in the group. But then some wanted it to go a specific way...between that and the constant harping about *'Where's the next chapter?!!!*' It got rather off-putting and I stopped writing and posting as now it felt like a job rather than a hobby. Long story short...when you open it up for suggestions and direction...the story is no longer yours (there is a caveat here*) and at this point you'll likely either lose interest or what was fun becomes a chore. In either case you'll stop writing it. The caveat...my problem (well one of) is I start out very strong in the beginning and almost always have a good idea of the ending. It's filling in the middle part that bogs me down...more so as I don't want to get into a repetition (when you're covering a span of a whole semester, there is a lot of gap to fill in; especially when the first 7+ chapters is barely 2 days). So in this case, suggestions might give you some ideas you might not have thought of for filling in gaps in your story. Just my 2-cents. PS...for those of you who know of my Modern Slavery 101 story...while I have always hoped to get back to it; not only is the interest gone, but my writing...style and appeal has shifted since I wrote that 12-13 years ago: I don't believe I could carry on without it being noticeably different from the start. So no...it's not going to happen...not that I could post it here anyways...slavery, high school, teens with minimal, almost non-existent mind-control...not a good fit.

I just wanted to chime in to tell the author to take heart - a lack of comments doesn't necessarily mean a lack of interest. Stories that instantly generate a lot of comments does not necessarily mean the story is well-loved, it could be any number of things. It might be controversial, it might be a *well-loved author* who people are very excited to see post a story, it might be a continuation of a story that people have been waiting for for months (or even longer) to appear, and lastly -it might strike a nerve and have made people upset. I can think of a few instances off the top of my head where a story generates a lot of comments and not really in a good way. Since you are writing a lengthy serialized story you must also keep in mind that the sheer number of chapters can be off-putting to potential new readers who are looking for a quick wank. Hopefully you grabbed your audience early on, when you do that they will tend to follow the story until the end (unless you upset them and they discontinue reading in which case you very much might get a comment expressing their disappointment). One trick that authors of serials use is to solicit feedback at the end of the story, ask your audience to vote on the direction the next chapter will take, ask the audience to suggest kinks they would you to include, or even invite them to suggest the fate of a character. Finally, on a technical note: in a serialized story once a tag is used it applies to all the stories in the series. People who have that tag blocked will not see any of your stories pop up in their feed. This is probably a good thing, but it can be unfortunate. Perhaps the author wanted to segregate a controversial kink into a single chapter of the story so that people who are turned off by it can easily skip it. But those who are blocking that tag because it is an extreme turn-off or a hard limit will not see the serial at all. It is something to keep in mind, but not something to obsess over.

@amul hi Amul and you for your answer I was thinking about methods to get more interest, like a "real" author who tries to sell a novel, not just write for the fun of it. I now realize that tag "Brainwash" is sticking and might reduce the potential readers. But you are right, its there and it will stick. I guess i will just go on writing till i get tired of it ;-) Or as long as i get feedback ;-))))

Hey @Dylan - I saw amul's comment earlier, and I've been thinking about it a bit. I've had some success in getting comments on my stories, so I thought I'd share what works for me. - **Write the stories that you're excited to write.** If the topic of your story is interesting to you, it will be interesting to some other people. You will never please everyone, and you shouldn't try. Over time, the readers who love your stories will recognize your name and jump to read your new material. - **Write lots.** Some stories will be hits, and you might not even know why. I can't tell you how a story will be received before I publish it – I just publish it and see what the reaction is. Some stories don't get a ton of comments, some get plenty of feedback. As a bonus, I've found that the more I write, the better my stories get, and I get more feedback more often. - **Ask for comments.** Sometimes at the bottom of a story, I'll put a short paragraph asking people to comment. Comments are really what keep me going, and I'm upfront about that. Recently I've been using that space to pimp my Patreon, and I've noticed a decrease in the number of comments I get here. It doesn't hurt to tell people you like comments. - **Keep series' short.** Every series I've ever written has had a drop off in the number of readers with each chapter. When people lose interest, they're gone, they rarely skip a chapter and pick the story up later. Sometimes I split up the themes I want to talk about into different stories – otherwise I'm going to end up writing something too long to reasonably keep attention. When you do want a longer series, try to produce chapters frequently. My series' with the least drop off are the ones that I released daily or every couple of days. Other authors have said weekly is the best frequency and it works for them. You're going to have a pace that works for you. - **Write interesting summaries.** Your readers need to know what your story is about up front. I used to write summaries that tried to leave some mystery. Now I write summaries that actually summarize the story in the broad strokes. I won't give away the twists, but I will tell the reader what the story is about. Readers have a lot of choices and good summaries help them find stories they're interested in reading. Anyhow, I know that's a heck of a lot of unsolicited advice. I hope some part of it is helpful to you. And remember – this is just a bunch of people writing smut for eachother on the internet – have fun with it!

I love the premise! The robot didn't quite do it for me though. A little too cartoony and too impersonal.

Hi Aaelefein, thk u for your comment. First i have to say i also wondered why so few comments were made. As a fairly new writer for this site i thought the story is maybe not interesting enough. On the other hand, stories that got many comments during the first few hours after bringing them on here seem a little too extreme, don't you think? It is hard, i must admit. To answer you: I am experimenting. I have many ideas, but i have not much experience. All i try now is to write as good as possible, and try those ideas out to the extreme. And: What the Dickson Company does to poor Dylan and those other boys, and what Dylans dad does seems more arousing to most of the readers here then a psychological or philosophical approach ;-) I'd like to hear as many opinions as possible. And you will find some more twists and surprises and maybe one or two of ur ideas will influence the story. As long as i get a feedback, as long as i feel someone wants to read it. Thx , Dylan

I am thoroughly and enthusiastically enjoying this story. The premise is really hot and I can't wait to see how things go from here. I hope there are lots more physical changes in store for Jacob and Danny!

So I've been following this from the beginning and writing now because I'm surprised at how few comments have been made. I will also admit I haven't rated any of the installments because I'm not really sure exactly how I feel about them or the story as a whole. It started out alright, but then it is just sex on top of more sex...no real good back story or delving into various people's backgrounds or why this Mr. Dickenson is doing this stuff in the first place, how did he get to where he is? How did he and these doctor's get so far off the moral path? There is..something...that keeps me wanting to read them (fruit punch maybe? LOL) Maybe simply because I found the first couple chapters interesting and now hoping to see where this all goes...which is weird because I'm not usually interested in 'growth' stories. Guys smoothed (loss of hair), shrunken and with some form of embarrassment/humiliation whether private (internalized), familial, friends and or public is more my cup of tea. Not a big fan of the religious aspect...those scenes with the priest and/or candle - something I keep out of the stories I write (for my personal amusement) and it feels both wrong and disrespectful. I see poor Dylan ending up as nothing more than a sex toy no different from the recently mentioned BoyBots. From the writing perspective, it's my hope that Dylan is eventually freed from all of this, learns of his father's complicity in the whole thing...but is able to forgive him because he is as much a victim as Dylan. That's me...I know it's not real life, then again neither are the stories here, but I much prefer if not happy, at least equitable endings. So I'll keep reading, curious as to what other inventions the writer comes up with (I love coming up with new ideas, 'science', 'medicine', and such...sometimes its more fun than the story itself!!) and see how it ends. I cannot give it a rating and considering I look forward to the next installment would have to say it's more Good than bad - so if 0 is the worst, 10 the best...it's probably a 6 or 7, though a couple chapters would rate an 8 while I'd give the ones with a religious undertone a 2 or 3. Biased yes...but I think also honest.
