Okay, so I thought about not even posting this. For now, consider this a hypothetical question because even though I have it plotted out, I'm not sure i will even do this. Anyone listening to my IG live before the IG read-a-long might have already heard me mention this, but if not, here we go. I have this (not so secret now) obsession with a/b/o fiction. For those who don't know what that is, think shifter dynamics without being a shifter (alpha, beta, omega, knotting, scenting, self lubrication, mpreg-not that there will be mpreg in this story but its part of the world) You get the point. I've been wanting to write it for a while, just for myself which is what i planned to do. But then so many people on the live got excited I figured I will ask you guys in here: 

If I decide to write a/b/o (even if I never publish it) do you guys want to read it as I write it or do you want me to just keep that to myself. If I did decide to publish it, it might be anonymous under a different pen name or it might be published as Onley James writing as pen name. I don't really know. The whole thing is weirdly nerve-wracking for me and its sucking the fun out of it. At least this way i will no once and for all. 

Do you want me to post the chapters here as I write it?

Comments

Ashley Sheppard

I would love to read your take on a/b/o dynamics!

Julianne Brasher

I would love to see your book as you write it! And honestly from feedback you get here, it might help your nerves as you write it. I have loved everything you’ve written! It’ll be exciting to see you write something different.

Linda Shaw

I have loved all of your books and I also enjoy a/b/o works so I’m sure I’d love it

Tori

Write what brings you joy. We’re for the ride and we can decide to read if we like. Sending oodles of 🥰 your way

Nikki Robson

Yes!! I love omegaverse, but given how divisive it can be I’d agree under a new pen name may be better for your brand. Buttttt I defo wanna read it allllll of it 🖤

Cecily Moreno

Heck yes! I love a/b/o and would love to see what you do with it!

Tommie Benton

OMG ONE THOUSAND TIMES YES!!!! Everything you write is flawless, and if you're considering dipping your big toe into abo verse, I am HERE FOR IT!!

Hannah

Absolutely! I‘m honestly intrigued to see how you would write something that fits into this universe, but if you feel more comfortable publishing it under a different pen name (or not at all), that is fine, just do whatever is the best for you :)

Emily

I would read your grocery list. Yes, please.

Qhuinn alexander

Yesssss write all that you desire. I'm excited and can't wait!!!

Megan

100% want to read this as I love Omegaverse and am totally on board for Mpreg

JB Winch

I have loved everything that has come from your brain, so absolutely, unequivocally yes!

Leyanis

I love A/B/O stories <3 would love to read yours!

christina haller

I love A/B/O. I would read it any way you want to write it under any name

Jena Wood

At this point, I would read anything you choose to write. I also love a/b/o, so double yes.

Matt Holloway

Yes yes yes!! I love everything you write and if you want to write it why not. Not everyone may read it but you are the Author and it’s your passion and craft! I want you to be happy with the stories you write and follow your interests and passions:) *hug* you are amazing!

Sola

I am sooooo here for any abo you write! Yes please!!! 🖤🖤🖤

Anna

This is amazing 😍 I Looove your writing but I also love a/b/o! Having them combined would just be 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

Laura Monostori

Yes, BUT only as long as it gives you joy to do so. I live with severe anxiety and I do not wish for you to feel pressured to keep writing something that does not come to you naturally. / saying all this while I would too read even your grocery list if posted 😊/

Heather Miller

Omg yes please!! A/b/o is my favorite!

Kira McGuinness

I will read anything you write! I haven’t been able to get into abo yet, but that’s mostly because I don’t really know where to start sooo I’m down to go on the journey with you haha

kate

i said yes but only if it doesn’t cause you stress! i think it’d be fun and i know you’d kill it but if it makes it less fun for you to post then keep it as your own special thing

Trae

Yes yes yes. But do not do it for us. Do it if you want to do it

Melissa Tarrington

Yeahhhhhh I personally love ABO stuff. Even if I didn't though I would say write it because you want to! Let that creativity flow 😍

Laura P

I would love it....but if it doesn't spark joy for you don't feel obligated.

Laura John

It's a squick for me, but you should absolutely write what you want to write!! I know I'm in the minority. <3

Ceri Sell

Yep, would love it! But only it it makes you happy. *Ponders psychopath mpreg*

Hannah

A/B/O is one of my favorite genres ever. It makes me so sad when people refuse to even give it a shot. I would literally die from happiness if you wrote even a chapter of an a/b/o story. Or, ya know, collab with another super cool a/b/o writer *cough* Piper Scott *cough* 😁

InnateReader

Only write what makes you happy, because everything you do write makes us happy! ❤️ That being said, I'm weirdly obsessed with A/b/o and mpreg, myself!

Wimsey's daughter

I'm personally not a huge fan of ABO, but mainly because I usually don't like how it's written and the characters seem very two-dimensional to me. You've never written anything I didn't absolutely LOVE, however, because you breathe life into your worlds and characters, so I'd read anything you write and surely enjoy the hell out of it. But I can also understand wanting to keep a passion project just for yourself, so you can escape there whenever you want to get away from demands, expectations and deadlines. Then, when /if you finish it, you can decide if you want to publish or not.

Courtney Slater

I LOVE a/b/o & mpreg, so I'm down to go along for the ride!!

Jules

A/b/o is a definite yes from me. 🙌🏼

Violet T.

Yes. Honestly I get a little bit of an a/b/o “fated mate” vibe from your books anyways (in a very good way), that I’d love to read an actual a/b/o boon you write!

Laura John

Based on the comments, I feel like you need to post your next grocery list! 😂

Trish Skywalker

I’m obsessed with Roe Horvat, he writes such good ABO

Mary

I'm not a fan, but if you write it, I'll definitely give it a chance.

Ahlea Wright

I will read anything you give me, but PLEASE try not to write a story where the alpha is super controlling and the omega is weak because I tend to despise those types of relationships

Sophie Williams

Yes as a fan of the genre I might break if you do one. So please 😅

Lori Murray

I definitely would love to read it, especially because your writing it and I really enjoy A/B/O!!!!! Its not my absolute favorite type of book to read, just because I only found a couple of authors that write them that I really enjoyed. But when I do I really get into it.

Aimi Yokaiko

Honestly, if the stress of thinking about sharing it is already sucking the fun out of it, you should keep it as a story for yourself. You can always share it later :) That being said, of coarse would read whatever you decide to share~

Kat Balog

Love a/b/o! Especially the fated mates kind. Like you smell like mine kinda way. Or only popping a knot with your real mate. But honestly like many have said you are amazing and we’d read whatever you posted.

Kaye_tee_bee50

I'm 50/50 when it comes to ABO. But I'm 100% into anything you write. But don't share if it stresses you out. Your writings are so good because it is easy to tell you enjoy it.

Jessica C.

I’m not a fan of the typical a/b/o trope, but I’ve read some that Ive liked and I definitely think you could do it justice.

Shellie Marshall

I freaking love that trope and would definitely read it!!!

Addicted2MM

Yes, but not if doing so sucks the fun out of it for you. I have no desire to add to your stress.

Melissa

I think an A/B/O from you would be super interesting and fun and spicy af! I'd happily read it -- either as a wip serial or mini fic creative writing exercises!? Really, you write it... I'm gonna give it a read!

Brin

I love a/b/o and I love your writing so I can’t be anything but excited about this!!

Rebecca

I would be over the moon to read your abo. 100% all in. In whatever way you decide to share it. Most importantly though, your mental health comes before anything else. Take care of you, the readers will be here when you are ready.

LausBookRambles

Yes yes yes damn I would die. I’m obsessed with this abo universe, and written by you… *faints* Roe Horvat, Lynn Van Dorn, Piper Scott *swoons* yes please 🥹

whodat

a/b/o is not really my thing, but perhaps I just haven't read anything by the right author. Im willing to give it a shot.

Beth

I’ve never been able to get into it before, but if I would follow anyone into that world, it would be you! I’d love to read it.

Mary Moyer

Oh I just know you’d do it perfectly. No doubt in my mind.

Melissa

Oh. My. God. Yes please!

Kia

Not a fan of omegaverse with or without mpreg. I just want it clearly labeled because I won’t read it when released or as you write. I’m in a few other author paterons and so have a tier specifically for that not normally them genre and others just well label so it can be avoided.

Kathalena

YES, PLEASE!! I LOVE Omegaverse and there aren't very many good ones. I already know yours will be AMAZING because you are a fantastic author! ❤️

Keagin Rose

If you write words, I will read them 🖤🖤🖤

Nicole Norton

I’ll read anything you write, but not at the expense of your mental health. You need to find joy in what you do without too much stress.

Danielle Pernell

I know a lot of people are weird about it but omegaverse and mpreg is my favorite thing to read. It's why I love the indie market so much. There are very few omegaverse authors I haven't read. Do what's best for you but if you write one, I will be obsessed 💕💕

Amy W

You should absolutely write what makes you happy and if you share it with us I am all for it! I am genuinely curious to read about a/b/o, mpreg and more. 😏

Jessica maloney

I have been devouring MM shifter stories for a few weeks, even when they aren’t as well written as your stuff. Needless to say, I voted an enthusiastic YES.

Kara

I've never really read omegaverse stories before, but I am game to try everything at least once. So my vote is I will read anything you would be willing to share!

H

OH MY GOD YES PLEASE

Andi Privitere

I’ve only read a tiny slice of Omegaverse (Piper Scott and MM Farmer) because my understanding is there’s…a lot of mediocre ABO stories out there, and I don’t have the patience to try to find diamonds in the rough when there’s so many great books just waiting to be read. As such I really only gravitate towards it with authors I trust. So I voted yes.

Natiuskat

I think if you want to do it, go for it! Tag it for people who want to skip, put a disclaimer on top and have fun! If you are having doubts about publishing I think uploading to the patreon first can give you some honest reviews

Carly M

Onley write. Me read. 🤣 but seriously.

Lisa

Love this idea and have read many of these before by others

Amy Dahmen

Definitely yes, I would love if you added mpreg to it... Def one of my favorite tropes

Lottie Duren

I would really love to see your take on a/b/o, I think you could add a fairly unique voice to that type of story!

Vikkikki

If they are even half as good as your current books they all be a huge hit. I would love to read it with your spin on A/B/O

Kristen

Here for it. Will read anything you write! Any. Thing.

Jessica

Omegaverse is my absolute favorite thing to read ! Imagine a Necessary evil rewrite omegaverse style 👀

Kayla McCoy

I am OBSESSED with Omegaverse. Like obnoxiously. And tbh I'll read your grocery list and enjoy it. So of course I want to read this from you. 🙈 PLEASE

LCK

ABO can be really fun when I’m in the mood and find a well written story! I’d definitely love to read your take on it if you feel up to writing and sharing ☺️

Jayce

yes!!! I was in that live and yelled for it cause I alsoxenjoy ABO 😂

Marnie Akemi

I am down for this! Personally, I don’t care about mpreg (I don’t like babies or children and rarely read those stories), but I love all the other aspects of omega verse. I’m interested in your take on it because I love your work and think you’d put a good spin on it. Maybe, post here as you go along and decide what to do afterwards based on responses here. Mind you, they’re pretty biased views since everyone here loves you and anything you put out. Just start writing it for you first, then see where it goes. 💜

Angie

Yes please to all of it

Sneakingfox

I don't really read a/b/o outside of the occasional old fanfic that's become the equivalent of comfort food for new. But I know it's really popular right now, so is unlikely to get backlash, and encourage you to share it if you feel comfortable doing so. It's fun seeing your stories regardless.

Cole

I don’t read more but I figure it can be like some of the fics you post about the twins and their spouses where you tell us what is there if we do t want to read it. Just tell us there is mpreg in the content info section. Nothing drives me battier than thinking I have a pnr book and it then contains mpreg.

Cole

Sorry autocorrect thinks mpreg is more and it is not letting me edit lol

Kim Francis

ABO is one of my favorite subgenres!! And you are one of my favorite authors. Sounds like the PERFECT combination to me!!

Katie Barnes

Would love to read anything you write! Whether it be a new series (which would be so fun), or maybe even a Mulvaney AU mini fic…👀

Zalika Burson

I enjoy a/b/o and a good mpreg book....it'll be even better knowing you wrote it🥰

Rachel McCarthy

That's not even a question!!! I love your writing, and am excited to see what you do with a/b/o

Harley Nixon

Yes, I will definitelyyyyyy want to read that! I feel like I always try to find something like that but can't, and if you write it it would be perfect.

Juniper Cole

I’d read anything you write and I LOVE A/B/O

Lucretia Hassing

I already read a lot of this type of story and I'm thinking you would do an amazing one. I'm ready to read it when you're ready to write it❣️

T J’s Mommy

Write it for you. I’m sure you have many lovely ideas and the book would be well received. But, do this for you. You share everything else, make this for you without worrying about plot holes, deadlines, etc. Maybe after you’ve completed it, read it and enjoyed it alone then you could publish it. Be kind to you— keep it for you.

Leslie

I love omegaverse!

Felicia

A/B/O is so one of my favs and there is zero doubt in my mind that I'd devour it if you wrote it! Just as I have no doubt that everyone here who enjoys the genre would love whatever you wrote, but only if it brings joy to you as well. Your stories bring happiness/joy/love to everyone here, they should do that for you too. I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you share it, I'll devour it. But if you decide to keep it for yourself, that's absolutely perfect too. Either way, you're still my fav!

Amber Aguirre

I love A/B/O! With our without shifters. I’d read it, 100%

Christa U

I am 100% behind this project. Every single word.

Britney Martin

Hell yes! I just know you’d be amazing at it! I feel like it would be Asa/Zane adjacent 😂 possibly not as brutal but still all primal and marking/scenting. I live for that in ABO

Lillith A. Bennett

I think you should definitely write it and post it. I'm not a big fan of the alpha/omega mpreg stuff, so I hope you also keep writing MM romance (which I love). But you deserve to explore and do things you enjoy! Go get that!

Jessica

I love a/b/o (including any talk of breeding, though mpreg squicks me so if it happens i tend to skim any parts about the actual pregnancy itself), but i don't read things as you write them, only the finished works so i can binge them. So yes i'll happily read it! But I have no opinion on the sharing of chapters here. Just please let us know if it gets published under a different name so I can buy it when it's ready!

dandjarin

I love all of it.

Radical Magpie

Ohmuhgoodness yes please 👏👏👏

Frankie Alexander

I know you’ve posted the first chapter already, I’m a big fan of authors writing for themselves and not just the fans so I say write it if you want. As for reading it, personally with authors I prefer to read everything at once rather than chapter by chapter. Also I like a/b/o but mpreg is one of my squicks 99% of the time which makes finding ones to read a pain. So if mpreg exists in the universe but not between the mcs I’d give it a shot once completed.

K Kachelmeyer

Do what makes you happy. I will read it all. I look forward to every book you write.
