Folks, I need a bit of help here. I have a story in mind in which a son is getting intimately involved with his adoptive mother, without actually knowing he is adopted at first and only learns of it later. Does that story require an incest tag? After all, technically it isn't actually incest as she's not biologically related.
Thank you all for the helpful comments and advice. I hadn't expected so many answers in such a short time, so thank you all for the help. I decided to adjust the story description to make it more obvious that the universe is still to come and when.
In the description of my story "In The Long Run", I mentioned that it is the founding story of my "It's always the Germans" universe
Yesterday I got a somewhat angry sounding comment that said universe doesn't exist and that I should contact the admins if I'm too dense to link stories into a universe.
Now here's my conundrum: The person gets two points for noticing that there's no link to that universe (yet), and that's quite deliberate. The story sets up the universe and introduces people who will appear in later stories. However, it is still in progress and current chapters are set in 1993. The other stories will start between 1998 and 2004, so I thought it wouldn't make sense to publish the universe link already, with just one story in it and others yet to start.
Was that the right approach or should I set up the link anyway?
Have you ever lost a 4.000 word chapter because you were too bloody stupid to press CTRL+S once in a while. Well, I am. I was on an complete roll today. Stuff basically wrote itself after weeks of writers block. And then I went to highlight the changes for final editing - program hangs, crash.
I feel like destroying some furniture...
