Story Category Question

[eroticstoryspinner]

I currently have a series called "Penal Slavery" https://www.literotica.com/stories/storyfeedbackboard.php?id=1979681 I listed it as non-con because it is set in a world where criminals are sentenced to terms of slavery rather than jail or prison per se. Because this is Literotica, there es a lot of sex. No rape or real violence, reluctance at worst.

I am about to submit a story in the same universe where almost all the story flashes back to about 48 hours prior to the actual plea and sentencing hearing where the mother and daughter are convicted and enslaved. The story is all first time, incest, and threesome, mostly incest. I expect there will be more parts including crossover by characters appearing in the Penal Slavery stories.

My first thought is to put this in the incest/taboo category with an forward explaining basically what I just said. My two concerns are one, the story will likely continue with the mother daughter being in processed as penal slaves and their experiences as staff at a sex resort. Later stories was was going to switch to non con, because they are slaves, albeit happy and insatiable, and it would have more than just incest going on in future parts. Two, will changing the category present a problem?

I found a thread from a couple of years ago related to this, but it did not seem quite on point. Any thoughts appreciated.

I think I'd put it in I&T with the note as you suggest. The problem you face is that many non-con readers don't like incest in their stories, and vice versa, so you'll not please everyone.

You'll need to rely on the strength of your writing to get over that - if your story telling is good, those who are intrigued by either of your first two chapters will most likely settle in for the duration by chapter three.

Your bigger issue, though, might be long gaps between chapters if you haven't got it all written - it sounds like this might be the case. If so, every chapter will have to catch attention, because if your interval between chapters is too long, you'll get a much faster drop-off, regardless of category.

Electricblue. Thanks for the advice. Despite a few things my copy edit pass missed, the story https://www.literotica.com/s/mom-and-daughter-face-penal-slavery is ruining some good numbers in the incest taboo category and Picked up about 12 new followers so far in the fist day of publication Oddly no comments at all.

Oddly no comments at all.

That's not surprising. It might mean that you haven't made any gawdawfull mistakes. In my limited experience there are two things that dependably generate comments -- mistakes and unfinished stories.
