It's surprisingly easy to just "start over" on another site. Since you already have material ready to go, you can have a very aggressive and consistent posting schedule to get followers and then slow down to something sustainable. I did that at the start of coming here, but then life happened, and now this purgatory. I wish there were more sites that accepted non consensual stories. So difficult to find these days.
Maybe we should all have a mass exodus to a new site. The site's owners don't seem to respect us enough to hire a professional coder to fix all these issues. Or at least the submitting issue. I have 62 followers on my old account. Although IDK how many of them are still actively reading my stories. I was looking at free, popular, adult-only, non-specialised erotica sites and saw only a few. Lushstories, Novel Trove, and Sex Stories.
There's also Inkitt and Storiesonline, but that's about it. I have wanted to make my own website, but I can't figure out how to do so, even with the help of the AI. I'm practically Amish when it comes to technology so I gave up on that. But yeah, there are so few sites that are worth posting on. I know of some very small story posting sites but they have requested not to be widely known because they do allow taboo stories and want to stay under the radar. I can't post to Lush due to their restrictions and most of my stories are non-con. And you do NOT want to post anything on xnxx/sex stories. Fastest way to lose your own work. I've been off that site for over a decade. The Blue Hell. The owner of that site refuses to delete old posts or accounts, very unhelpful. I have been hoping he would pass and the site would just be shut down. As much as I dislike to see long standing taboo sites disappear, when they are run as poorly as that one and this one are, they rather deserve it.
Lush Stories takes even longer than Lit to approve stories; they're crazy strict about their content and grammar too. They literally read every story like editors. lol It's crazy. I have one story there, and it took more than a month to post. I gave up and pretty much just let things pend here on Lit and I post everything on Archive of Our Own, where you can post instantly, edit at any time, and have excellent tags and writer settings. The only downside is the audience is smaller, but if we redirect more fans there, then we win! lol
A03 is a popular site for a LOT of things.
So that others can track along, I am still in Pending with two stories. One was an edit that I submitted on 3/29/2026 (bad example with a long wait time, I know) but the more worrisome one was a piece for the On The Job challenge (tagged and noted properly as per the challenge) that I put in 4/17/2026. The On The Job list of stories seems much shorter than most of the previous challenge entries as well.
I resubmitted my story of 4/17/2026 as a new story today with a note about the issue in the notes section. I left the old one for site error checking.
What's interesting is one of the stories I reuploaded a few days ago now shows it was uploaded 12 hours ago when I certainly didn't load it. Something is afoot.
AO3 allows original works as well. Though they focus on fandom to start, there are over 400k original stories there too. So far that's the best place I've found to post stories that include non-con. Since they allow you to tag it easily and make it easy for others to find or avoid if they choose.
I received my AO3 invite and set up an account. I may mirror what I have here on that site. I want to make sure I am posting correctly over there as it is much more indepth for tagging and documenting your work, it appears. Looks like a learning curve but it may be worth it. We shall see.
You should be okay; check to see what date they've put on the pending page for your story, if doesn't post by that date, then you're lost in purgatory. lol
Well done! Looking forward to having those back myself.
Okay, a bit of progress here.
The rest are still pending despite resubmission on May 13th.
