Am I doing this to make stuff to release?

No, that's a whole bunch of mess. I have known people who sold erotica/smut, and holy shit, that was active pain for them to deal with (lucrative, but annoying).

This is all still, mostly, coming from 'can I get this to work?', and then probably, eventually 'can I make something so someone else can make this work, with very little fuss?'

Figured it was time to actually try to LORA on writing some shit.

It's different in how you have to prompt it, compared to a conversational, but... yeah, it'll write you a chapter in the spec'ed style without too much fuss.

It kinda works best if you just say 'scene includes X, Y, Z' and just leave it to it, see where it goes.

Good morning folks

Now this?

Seems a lot less safe

Seems safe...

#NMS

I mean, they're short? Novella kinda deals?

Dunno what the structure is.

Maybe I have to read some cheap 'A wife for the farmer' trash, or whatever.

I was actually considering getting together a dataset of cheap romance-y stuff like Mills & Boon, then I realised I've never read any of that kind of thing anyway.

OH NO

I have a fishing rod now...

#NMS

One day I'll work out how to run an #RPG that captures No Man's Sky's vibes.

But, part of the whole thing is the sense of isolation.

I know, I know, as I was bitching last night, expeditions are like this, BUT...

Eh?

There's clearly still a lot of love in #NMS (No Man's Sky), but it also feels a lot more... hrm.

Crowded?

Glancing at erotica writing guides, and:

Someone is, uh, goin' for a ride?

#NMS

... ENVOY WHAT?

#NMS

So... did corvettes just replace basic ships entirely?

Ok, we are going to agree on this, though.

We're gonna agree to disagree on that one.

Welcome back to DEADLIEST CATCH: PISS PLANET

#NMS

'like a donut without the, well, the donut.'

Surely, suuuuuurely you can do better than that?

This is a straaaaaaange book, in that it feels the need to have little callouts defining 'antagonist' and 'motivation', and other basic terms?
