More stories, longer stories, saved characters with memory, character chat, continuing a story, collections, audio narration and other languages.

Where Smitten Stories is the better choice

Smitten Stories was started by a couple as a Valentine's Day idea, and it shows. For these jobs, it beats RedQuill.

  1. No account to try. Open the page, fill in two characters and a scene, and read a story in seconds.
  2. Made by a couple, for couples. The quick two-character form and private links make it easy to whip up a story for a partner.
  3. Finnish and Greek. Besides the big European languages, it writes in Finnish, with Greek in beta. RedQuill has 13 languages but not those two.
  4. A flat price. Smitten Plus is one monthly price with no credits to track, and a $6.99 day pass if you only want one night.
  5. Short and simple. If you want one hot scene with two people, the short form gets you there fast.

Where RedQuill is the better choice

Smitten Stories is built for a quick, private read. RedQuill is built for stories that grow.

Explicit stories that build over time

RedQuill is made for adult fiction, including kinks and power dynamics, within our content guidelines. The spicy level control sets how far each story goes, from slow burn to fully explicit, so tension can build across chapters instead of one short scene.

One line becomes a full chapter

Type "my rival and I get snowed in at a ski lodge" and RedQuill writes a full first chapter in under a minute. Then continue chapter by chapter, steer the next scene in plain words, edit any paragraph, or fork the story to try another direction without losing the original.

Saved characters, plus a Lorebook

Smitten Plus saves characters too. RedQuill goes further for long stories: save characters once (looks, personality, history, how they talk) and reuse them in any story, and each story also keeps a Lorebook, so chapter 12 still remembers what happened in chapter 2. Learn more in Characters 101.

Step into the story with Roleplay mode

Smitten Plus lets you chat with a character, and so does RedQuill. RedQuill's Roleplay mode also drops you into the chapter itself, where the AI narrates the world and plays every other character in the scene. Type what you do or say, or start from any paragraph while you read. A Cast panel tracks where everyone is, what they're wearing, their mood and what they're secretly thinking.

A library to read and fork

Thousands of public stories are free to read on Discover, and you can fork any of them into your own version. Your own stories stay private unless you publish them, or share one by unlisted link. You can even invite a partner to write a story with you.
