I've seen your novel for quite a while but haven't gotten to check it! That's a lot of chapters :confounded:

Anyways, gonna share mine. Thanks for the opportunity!

Title: A Call for Happiness
Genres: BL
Summary:
Chester Morrison hated Alphas, and he loved lunch time at Blue Rose.

But, one unfortunate day, Sebastian Rodriguez appeared in front of him, as an Alpha and as a waiter in Blue Rose. Not only that, he was his fated partner. Having felt his lunch place was stolen, Chester found his heart stolen, too.

Now, his mind is in gutter. Should he let destiny play him? Or, should he defy his instinct?

Will your novel contain mature love scenes? Ehh, probably nothing explicit. :point_right::point_left:

That's cool. Feel free to check out my novel if you have the time :blush:

Thank you for sharing your novel, I'll check it out! It looks interesting :sparkles:

Thank you! I hope I'll be able to read yours soon :smile_01:

Have subbed to yours, too! :two_hearts: Haven't gotten to read much, though :cry_02:

It’s okay! I like reading stuff as it updates myself.

It's not long before he succumbs to his injuries and is woken up within an enemy country’s military/university encampment during a time of war.

With the duration of his captivity continuing to lengthen, one of his relationships begins to grow into something more romantic and he also begins to discover that he isn’t who he thought he was all along.

Will your novel ever contain mature content?: Already does!

Well I'll be! :grin:

I cordially invite you all to take a look at my first published story in Tapas below.

Genre: BL, Fantasy (Paranormal), Action

Summary: Archvampires do not bow for Alpha wolves. Such was the lawful nature of these two kindred. As were Jonathan and Nathanael, who were each other's closest and greatest adversaries known to their supernatural history. The wits and battles between them were ever relentless, tireless, merciless and even timeless. Until they ushered their endangered daughters and own lost souls into the future, and eventually freed from obligations to their hordes, the two men decided to try something new in their rivalry.

Will your novel contain mature content: Always. :relieved:

Thanks for sharing, I'll check it out! Congrats for your first published story :grin::two_hearts:

Oh, one more thing @lucainarmand!

If you add /info at the end of your URL, you'll be able to show a nice little banner. Makes the link more appealing as you can show off your thumbnail :wink:

Like this!

I see! Thanks very much for showing me the way. :kissing_heart:
I was wondering how do I go about doing that. :joy:

No worries! Had the same issue when I first started :joy:

I just started publishing my first web novel, a BL Advent Calendar with a new episode coming out every day until Christmas. A BL holiday romance :heart:

Title: Poinsettia
Genres BL, romance, slice of life
Summary: One day, college student and bonafide Scrooge, Mizuki, has a run-in with a Mall Santa. The man in the Santa costume forces a plant into his hands, and before Mizuki can give it back, the man has vanished.

Days later, Mizuki comes home to find a strange man in his bed – claiming to be the plant that is now nowhere in sight?!

Despite his initial confusion, Mizuki allows the stranger to stay, and though he doesn't believe in magic, December begins to feel a little magical after all :sparkles:

Steamy scenes: Maybe~

Hey! I'm Nami, totally new to Tapas. I just started publishing my BL novel today :blush: I'm somewhat nervous since the cover is also featuring some of my original artwork as well, and I have never done that before even though I've published my writing before. I hope I meet some awesome people here!

Anyway, here we go:

https://tapas.io/series/Blinding-Lights3

It has been nearly three years since GRiD last saw the limelight before serving their mandatory military service. Now, they are making a comeback.

What can go wrong when the lead dancer Minjae accidentally falls for his pretend partner for fanservice?

Hi @Namiar! Welcome to Tapas :sparkles:

Thank you for sharing! I love your cover and artwork :two_hearts:

I would recommend you share the link with /info at the end of your URL. It makes it more appealing and stand out more in forum posts.

Awh, thank you so much! I was wondering how one does that :smiley: And thanks for the welcome!

Good luck with your novel!

Sorry, I wanted to make sure! :joy:

Thank you so much for reading, Like Ecstasy! I'm really glad that you enjoyed it.

Yeah I worry that there's a few grammar errrors in there. Sorry about that! I need to schedule a day to re-edit the whole story, I've seen a couple when re-reading and I'm like 'F***! How did I miss that?' :sweat_smile:

Nonetheless, I hope you'll continue to read the rest of the story! :two_hearts:

No, this TOTALLY isn't a bump :joy:

Happy New Year everyone! :sparkles:

I was curious to see what new BL stories are coming soon this year from you guys. Have you started any new projects?

I'm finishing my story next week and I feel like I have to start all over again with writing a new one. I'm kind of scared...is that strange? :sweat_smile:

I am on the same boat LOL (edit: as in writing, I still have a LOT of publishing and scheduling to do). Me thinks I'm having some off time, just reading things on January, and then look up some contests or something for February to get back on creating new.

Yeah that sounds like a good plan! There are so many stories that I need to catch up on :sparkles:

I wish there were more competitions on Tapas for writers. :pensive:

I guess this is the time for that. I just finished my story and although I have a few ideas of what I might want to do, no real direction.

I've got one started that is set in Japan between a white kid from the US whose parents just moved there to teach and a Japanese kid who just returned from NZ where his dad was an Ambassador. Both end up at this semi-prestigious international school.

Second possible project is this kid whose mom takes off for reasons, and he tries to cover for the fact that she is gone in the hopes that she comes back. But eventually he and his boyfriend take off together when stuff gets too complicated (like facing possible eviction).

But all I really want to do is keep poking the project that I just finished. BUT it needs to sit there for awhile and think about what it has done before I should be allowed to touch it again.

Do you have any ideas of what you might do next?
