And yes, I will share with xo. Needs to be an external site so I have plausible deniability. Could be I just linked to someone else's book.

Tried to do it on wattpad (cr according to Grok, no thanks to xo) and:

-it showed my name even after I logged out (wtf?). Will need a throwaway email I guess.

-formatting turned all to shit

Sci fi romance. This is supposed to be the genre that gets published.

cs lewis published the screwtape letters as a serial in the guardian. rolling stone published fear & loathing in las vegas as a serial. those are a couple of options you can consider, depending on your target audience.

This sounds like flame. I think I will just get a throwaway email and try this wattpad thing again. The formatting is just utter shit.

I could post it on craigslist. That's what I've used for other anonymous posts on xo. Probably not the "proper" way to do this though.

Ok I am going to try this place: https://www.royalroad.com/home. It was recommended by an author I actually read, he mentioned it in his bio. They review your submissions, so let's see what happens.

as an alternative you could try a short story first. having a prior publication in a mystery or sci-fi magazine could help

Ok its live. I've been approved for publication (low bar, from what I understand) and "reached level 1 based on number of views".
