Chapter 1 - Authors note

Welcome to dating around. A story where you'll have direct influence on path of the story. The character focuses on a girl, Ashley, who is re-entering the dating world as a plus size woman.

The main character, Ashley, a girl that has recently become fat and single, re-enters the dating scene 160 pounds fatter, learning the ropes of dating while being fat. In the first round of chapters, she will be going on a first date with 6 different characters. By the time this story is ends, the readers will decide who Ashley ultimately ends up with, as you narrow the 6 down to 1.

Once those dates have finished, YOU will get to vote on which of the six dates story lines will continue, ultimately until we settle on one final character that Ashley will end up with.

Voting Rules:


Round 1 Rules

Once all six first date chapters come out, I will link a poll, asking readers which of Ashley's first date partners (like Luke) should get a second date. The date who has the most favorites on their chapter (on Deviantart) will get immunity from any voting. The remaining five will be voted for. The three with the top number of votes will be safe from the second (and final) round of voting, and will get a second date.


Round 2 Rules:

After the votes from Round 1 are tallied, the two dates with the lowest amount of votes will go into a runoff, where I ask you, the reader which one of the two date you'd like to send packing. This will end that characters storyline.

Please let me know what you think about this format and the characters.

Good luck, and choose wisely! It is up to the community to decide Ashley's fate.
