I don't think women need to be available to my needs both in real life or on this site. I don't believe men are superior and women need to sub,it al all that view sickens me. I'm not listening to advice because a bunch of you seem to think my only foal here is to beat my meat and cybering, that's not my only intention. I also feel that both men and women waste their time pretending to be writers
I have no issue at all saying that I love to read the stories here, I'll grant that many of the writers are talented at what they do, writing erotic literature, But in my opinion, MY opinion, MINE, MINE, MINE, that does not make someone a real writer. to the small MINORITY of people that write outside of lush and erotica, you are real. but writing erotic stories online doesn't make you a real writer to me.
Any writer who isn't gaining popularity through a sex site and then translating that into "I'm a real writer now!" but you write for you and your fans, not me
How does one gain popularity in this day and age without online following? Do you think message board and online community fandom is somehow illigitimate? They exist for all manner of literature, by the way, not just for erotic stories.
Or how about this? I would bet most of the authors here do it because they want to write and share their craft and ideas? Sure, some are more polished than others, but I don't think their goal is to gain fame or fortune by their writing. Nor do I bet they go around with a vanity plate and bumper stickers proclaiming they are "writers". They do it for the enjoyment and want to share with others.
Now I could be WAY off base, but I wouldn't put money on that being the case.
I believe, Hugecock69 (yeah still makes me chuckle), that you have made some pretty big assumptions about the members and authors here... both in the areas of cyber as well as writing/publishing. I for one have "published" a few stories on another similar site, and one if its members suggested I come HERE. I have not submitted anything YET, but probably will at some point. Whether you consider me a "real writer" or not is really not important to me. What IS, is that those who read my work enjoy it and it brings positive things to their lives as well as mine.
The rest? Bah, just internet bluster. Want to arm wrestle? ;) heehee
Why is anyone humoring this guy? Its is so obvious he is just trying to stir things up
50 shades of grey is not writing to me either, that's not writing at all. Yeah I only stay on this site for a short amount of time, because I have better things to do with my time during school, sorry if that is an issue for some of you. I understand that writers now need online followings, but I don't think any of the writers writing sex stories on here, no matter how complex will be changing any lives through writing in the real world, maybe some of you will, but not a large amount. I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE WRITING! I LOVE THE STORIES!!! my purpose is to discuss the change from plenty of women to cyber with to less and less with more and more "writers" that is my opinion
