Due to IRL obligations I wasn't able to finish Chapter 5 of Crossing the Line to my satisfaction, so it will either be released tomorrow or Monday.
Im playing with the idea of putting out a few shorter chapters from time to time that would have no (or very little) sex in them, simply to give you all more backstory for the characters involved.
I realize the audience engagement isn't very convenient on here, so I will probably release these piece meal over the next few weeks and see how they are received.
Thanks for reading!

Forgive me everyone, Im still trying to figure out the proper formatting for this site. Im attempting to follow the guidelines for submissions, but the italics, spacing, indenting, etc are just not coming through right yet.
For example, the first four sentences in Chapter 4 of Crossing the Line were supposed to be both italicised and indented in an effort to provide a background for the beginning of the chapter, alas they came through as just normal sentences.
Regarding the ending of chapter 4, I essentially had an entire 24 hours to set the scenes for Alex and Sam having all kinds of sex and experimentations, but ended it mid-morning in a way that left the remainder of the day open to the readers imagination. The main reason for this was the length of the chapter. I could have easily written another 20 pages exploring the remainder of christmas day with them.
Now this is a two-edged sword as far as I'm seeing it. On the one hand, the reader gets to continue the fantasy where I left off, filling in the gaps as they so desire for Sam and Alex to have done anything their minds eye could dream up. On the other hand, its also closing the door on the readers experiencing Sams first full blown orgasm from true intercourse with her brother. Yes, oral is all well and good, but their story is more built around their emotional connection as friends and soulmates rather than the plain lust that so often times shrouds stories like this.
To skirt this issue, I will likely do similar flash-backs like I did in chapter two going back to their first sexual encounter in chapter 1. I hope this is not seen as a cheap writers trick, but I was pretty much out of options.
Im experimenting a bit with adding more flavor to the stories. I refer you to Chapter Two of Crossing the Line that I just submitted. The discussion about the origins of a phrase, or why a bong is packed in just such a way. Not sure if it was too much or if it had the desired effect of making the story more immersive...
Also, I have added references to some specific songs in this chapter. I chose these songs so that if you (the reader) were to have them playing in the background, it will help put you in the intended mindset of the characters and situation.
I appreciate the positive responses Ive gotten so far, please feel encouraged to leave any feedback you may have.
Hi there, my name is Taryn and im new to the story writing scene in general, so i would appreciate constructive feedback. Im also brand new to the site so I am unfamiliar with the intricacies of being an author on here.
All that said, I have just submitted my first chapter in a story about Samantha and her brother Alex, and I have many ideas on where to go in the subsequent chapters, but I will only be posting them if yall readers seem to be enjoying them.
Thanks,
