Amen!
I got a lot of "1"'s on my three part story "Cuckolding The Boss." My readers hated .... or extremely disliked how things went down. But...they left a lot of lengthy comments and were completely engaged in the story. I respect that. To me, those "1"'s were actually "5"'s because I truely touched my readers.
Well, there are considerable costs involved to run a site like this. If the site does not have big enough sponsors then we have to chip in. Plus, because there is a "fee" system it helps to keep some of the less desirables out that like to be disruptive. For $49.99 per year, that's only $0.13 per day. As cheap and thrifty as I am, even I don't complain about it.
I would like to take a moment to congratulate the top three, top ten, and all of the other contestants who entered the competition. This was my first competition here at Lush. I am proud of my story "Slut-Resort Anthology: The Birth Of A Kitten". I want to thank those of you that read my story and left all of the wonderful comments. I look forward to the next competition. Competition brings out the best in all of us!
Well about the cuckold story. That is a very long story. I will be dressing Andrea up and taking her to meet her date at the Sheraton Hotel. They will seduce each other then he will fuck her and collar her as a BBC Slut in front of me in the room. From there, he becomes her regular bull, eventually moving in on the weekends while I sleep in the guest room. The problem is most people don't have the patience to let the story unfold.
I write some of the hottest erotica on the web. I'm not the best, but I'm not the worst. My stories on another site all have a "HOT" stamp on them because they rate so high. But here, I get a lot of 5 stars then some shithead comes along and votes a 1 or a 2 out of the blue. First, my stories are well written and grammatically correct. That alone should count for half of the rating. If you don't like the topic then don't read it. If you hate that my stories are rating higher than yours then too bad. Learn how to tell a story better.
My wife found my writings on another site 20 years ago and nearly left me over it. She didn't trust me after that. I don't think she fully trusts me today, all these years later. The only person that knows I write, is my sister. My sister does not know about my erotica, she does know about the romance novel I am writing.
