Wonder how many people are going to rate this 1 star on the assumption that it's pedo stuff.
Cuz internally that's all they want, cuz I didn't think it's pedo at first they gotta open book before judging
Right.. neither of the characters on the cover looked nothing like a middle schooler
nah there’s enough teacher x student yaoi out there, i don’t blame anyone who assumes the worst and gives the cover and the title a massive side eye
Worst thinking cuz that's not what I thought, i thought they are highschool students before i see kawai sensei then I thought younger seme? But then I see inside both of them are adults and teacher. I don't know how come anyone mistaken them for elementary school kids but not for highschool kids╮(￣▽￣)╭
Hey guys, its been months since Ive properly read BL and I'm curious which new BL are worth reading? There seems to be SO much and its a little overwhelming.
Not opposed to twisted stories, mainly interested in 18+ stuff.

Sangyang: the Wanderer pls its so good. the plots actually amazing like my jaws on the floor the whole read. not 18+ unfortunately tho if you're looking for that (cuz its a manhua and the ccp overlords hate the gays ).
I use Quotev but I dont really get much engagement there, my stories arent amazing. I wonder if theres any other sites that are accepting of explicit BL stories? I know Wattpad thinks my stories are too much as I had them removed there. :')
ao3 is naturally your best bet. use the tagging system properly and you'll be fine. you can also upload your stories on tumblr. in general though, original stories (which is what i assume you're writing) tend to not get much attention compared to fanfics written for established fandoms, that might be why you're not getting that much engagement.
Ao3 is a good place to upload stories of any kind, BUT if you're looking engagement it is NOT FOR YOU. Ao3 does not have any algorithm that will boost your works or recommend it to other people. Ao3 is an archive. It's a place to store things, like a warehouse that we're allowed to visit from time to time. Just fyi.
If you are looking for engagement, try scribblehub. Last I checked, there's a community of (original) BL writers there who actively support and promote each other. Join their discord.
But the above comment is true. Original works don't do well unless you market your work, because there's no established fandom yet, so there's minimal engagement.
Thank you! And yeah, my stories are originals so thats why I dont really use AO3, but I also find their editor a little overcluttered?
I took a look at Scribblehub and it looks good! Do you know if it's alright with explicit erotica stories? I took a look at the terms of service but it doesn't really say anything about that.
Thank you comments for completely obliterating any curiosity I had about this story. Thought it'd just be a cute height difference story, such a shame. I'm glad us BL fans are much less tolerant of CP compared to the hentai community at least.
