To read and write. Now to also chat with a very few friends.
I got drawn here originally for the dirty stories. Then I did the chat rooms, which led to OL relationships, etc. with some wonderful people I never would have met in real life. I still read stories and poems when I'm in the mood or if it is by one of my favorite lush authors. Some of those authors supported and encouraged me as I rediscovered a love of writing, which is quite rewarding to me. It's nearly all about the friends and the social aspect now. I've sometimes thought of leaving, as some have over the years, but I hate the thought of leaving my friends.
“It's nice sometimes to open up the heart a little and let some hurt come in. It proves you're still alive.”
To read outstanding sex stories, fantastic sensual poems, try my hand at writing and enjoy wonderful friends.
I first started coming here for the stories, now I love meeting new people and reaching out to the old ones from another site that we were all on. Have met a few that I could become addicted to...
First it was at the insistence of a relative, who thought that I could perhaps write a bit here. Then it was (and is) a mix of the writing and the forums. And FTR, SJ, we really do not need to know what you do or do not keep in your panties. Please.
Want to spend some time wallowing in a Recommended Read? Pick one! Or two! Or seven!
I would say "came for the stories, stayed for the people " sums it up nicely
"If it doesn't leave you breathless, sweaty and ready to fade, it's just not worth doing."
First came for the stories, then started chatting, since no other chat is like this set up. i became very addicted to this site.
I come to lush to publish my stories, read stories, add to the forums and chat with friends.
Never been here for stories, its interesting forum. I usually come to troll/spam or chat. Depends on the time of the day
For me, Lush is an outlet. It's a place to let go of the stresses of my everyday life. I can express myself here in ways I cannot anywhere else. I have always wanted to write, and having a loyal readership here means the world to me.
It's also become a sort of night class in writing for me. I've learned so much from our members and the moderating team. My skills have become so much more finely honed and I've developed an ability to write in many different styles. One day, when time allows, I'm going to write a mainstream novel and the knowledge I've picked up here is invaluable to that end.
I write in Lush because I wish to express. Sometimes, I fail to get my message across. I see words as a gift, given to some who wish to ignite feelings. I cannot control what other's bring to Lush, but I can consolidate, if I wish. I have met some genuine good people who TRY to understand. Then again, there are those few who haven't a clue. I BELIEVE my writing has become a stepping stone as to my character...improving with grammar and better punctuation. I have no desire to be anything but me...no irons in the fire.
Because the girls here FUCK?
xx SF
GIRLS HERE: "WE DON'T FUCK YOU!!!!!!!"
Me: "I DIDN'T say ME!!!!!!!! (JESUS!)"
GIRLS HERE: "We ALL fuck MILIK..."
Me: "FUCK all Y'ALL!!!!!!"
Milik: "Actually, they do, Steve."
Me: "I'm fucking OUT!"
Milik: "Seriously... ALL OF THEM."
Me: "Even PRINCIPESSA?"
Milik: "Yup."
Me: 'JAYNE33??????"
Milik: "Yeah."
Me: "SPRITE??????????"
Milik: "Only ONCE with Ravenstar and Liz..."
Me: "*SHOOTS SELF!*"
started out as "curiosity"...not enjoy reading the stories... some very good ones... make you go hmmm
I came because my hubby asked me too. So far it's fun. Seems like lots of politics though.
I came to Lush to meet people, to play in fantasyland. I discovered fine writing that I have enjoyed extensively. I hope to someday meet someone from Lush in "real life" and see what happens (if anything).
I agree and would add that I can oddly be "myself" here much more so than in my offline life.
I like to write when my muse calls for pizza carryout. I am no different here, then at my bookshop or in my dark catacombs
It used to be for the stories but now i log on in the hope that a certain friend is online
stories, friends and hopefully some fun chats
