It's ya boy, back from the dead
2 years ago
So, those who've followed me for a while know my pattern: I pop outta the ground every two or three months with a short piece, then go back to hibernating in my tomb. I'm aiming to change that, and really start putting out content more consistently, hopefully grow my audience. A couple problems, though.
Problem one: I've built a brand around a really niche kink. If there's one thing we know about me, it's that I love gutpunching. I can try to come up with more situations to keep the stories from feeling like carbon copies, but I'm worried that if I just keep leaning into that, I won't be able to grow my viewing audience.
Problem two: If I stray too far in the other direction, I risk losing my core audience, those of you who follow me presently because we're into the same esoteric shit.
So, is there a balance I could strike, somehow? Alternate what I'm doing? Put out something to please a larger crowd, but somehow find inspiration to keep my usual stuff coming out too? Should I stick with what I know, play it safe, or venture out and risk losing people who're already here?
I'm a little lost. Let me know what you think.
(And also give me inspiration for what story might come next, while you're at it. kthxbai.)

That said, if you do want a wider audience, it can help to incorporate other kinks with the ones you already use. Your use of magic, muscles, and bondage with gutpunching is already a unique combination. You might try using kinks that are along the same tangent but you haven’t used yet. Muscle growth and transformation lend themselves easily to the magic aspect, for example (not necessarily a suggestion, just an example).
It can also help to play with different plot lines/genres/character archetypes. Often I find that shifting the framework can get the creative juices flowing.
