How to add a story

You must be registered and logged in to the Archive to submit a story. After you login, click the My Stories link in the User Menu (even if you don't yet have any stories in the Archive).

You will see a screen that looks like this:



Click the Add Stories link in the upper right. This will take you to the main screen for submitting stories.



You have to fill in the Title. The description is optional, but recommended. Suggest Location is where you indicate that it is an AR story, AR & AP, AP or Infantilist story.  Next, click the Properties tab.



On this tab, you can select options that will help people decide if they might be interested in your story. Genre allows you to indicate Male and/or Female AR/AP, and what Universe your story is part of (as needed). The rating and warnings are pretty self-explanatory. The rating system is G - anyone could read the story without risk of being offended, PG - like a PG move, some nudity, non-detailed sexual situations and adult language, and X - anything beyond PG.

Next, you want to click the Chapters tab.



The Chapter Number and Title are required. Then you can upload a story file in text or html format if you wish. Otherwise, you can enter your story into the form field. It is recommended that you write your story in Notepad or some other text editor first and then save it on your hard drive before you paste it into the form. This approach will save you a lot of pain and frustration if something happens to your internet connection while submitting a story.

Once all of the steps are completed, click the floppy disk icon at the top of the page (next to the red X. Make sure that there are no error messages (missing required fields like Chapter Number, etc.) before you move on.

To check that everything worked, click the My Stories link again. The new story should be listed. If you click the green pencil icon (Edit Story) and then click the Chapter tab, you can see the information for that chapter. The word count will tell you if the submitted chapter got saved - if it says 0, your chapter didn't get added. If that is the case, add a new chapter and email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to get rid of the empty chapter.

If this is too complicated/frustrating or anything else prevents you submitting stories this way, email me the story at: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it and I will post it under your username for you.
