Bear in mind that you can also PM the verifier who sent the message, if you're still not exactly sure what to do next. The mods are a generally friendly bunch!

Have a friend, who can be objective, read your story over for you.

One of the best tips I ever received was to sit and read your story aloud - Things which may not be immediately obvious will become much much clearer, especially punctuation.

It is worth taking the extra time to do these things and to read the forum threads listed above - your story will do much better once it's published.


Anyone else find themselves doing this in different accents?
No? Just me...

Scouse and Welsh are hilarious
Excellent post!

I particularly like the Dialogue Formatting guide by Clum and Principessa - it is an excellent resource.
So, here we go...

I've spoken to a few people recently who had no idea that there is a current competition running for April.
It is posted in the forums I know, but these individuals are not regular forum dwellers like some
What are your thoughts on a new banner section for the front page for site announcements?
It could be used for:

** Competitions: The launch of new ones, winner declarations etc.
** Lush Publishing announcements
** Anything else Nicola and the team think noteworthy

Couple of examples for you:





Quick site mock-up:

Your thoughts?

We have added the option (via account settings), for everyone to be able to upload their own videos.

This feature is for you to upload your amateur videos (x-rated or otherwise).

Please do not post any content that you do not own the copyright to.

You need to add a title and tags to each, so the videos can be classified. We will be introducing a video gallery later in the year, so it's important the videos are labelled correctly.

Enjoy!



Great idea! smile
This should be interesting...
Quote by DirtyMartini


Yeah, I agree with Doll, Jeff, Xuani, and the others who don't think it's a good idea...

I mean, do I really want someone knowing I visited their page 210 times in the last month? I think not...


210? Do tell... smile

I'll throw my opinion in also, I can't see this being of any great benefit to the site to be honest.
Can see it causing more problems than anything else.
As also mentioned though, a Gold Perk - why not? One more reason to splash the cash.
I do a lot of running - this is as much a meditation as it is a workout. To slip your earphones in, lace up your trainers and just hit the asphalt...
I go to the gym regularly and also like to swim.
More importantly, eating right.

We've introduced a new feature, whereby anyone can take over my account, and do as you please, for 24 hours.

That means an all access pass. Do as you please.

Someone annoying you? Ban them for 24 hours / 2 weeks / totally.

Those who are interested in being me for a day, please send me a message!


Oh, don't tease

Lizzy in charge? Chaos ensues!

You can read a preview on Amazon. You can skim a book in a bookshop.

Making a poor purchasing decision is your fault. Asking for a refund, is pretty pathetic if you ask me.

I can read a book in a day, the 7 day refund ruling as it stands, is hopeless.


Here here!
Couldn't agree more.
I like a lot of the 'old school' comedies as opposed to some of the newer stuff.
Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder were amazing! So:

Hear no evil, see no evil
Stir Crazy


The earlier Eddie Murphy stuff was superb:

Coming to America
Trading Places


Most of the stuff with Bill Murray!!!

Recent stuff would be:

Anchorman
Ted
Shaun of the Dead
Hot Fuzz

The list is endless...
Off the booze for a bit. On to Pink Grapefruit Juice.

At the moment, I would have to say Faye Reagan.

I think you should be a bit more open to male authors. We have some fantastic ones on this site and you're really missing out on some great stories if you rule them out immediately.

To name a few: Buz; Frank_Lee; Jaymal; Milik_the_Red; DLizze; MatthewVett.


Rock n' Roll!

IE?


I'm on a Mac but use XP on a virtual machine.
Tested in IE8 and it worked fine.

Time short? Rather read a story later on your kindle formatted properly, instead of in a web browser?

Well now you can!

At the bottom of each story, there's a new button.

Please give it a try if you own a Kindle, and let us know of any issues.

I can confirm it works in Chrome and Firefox. In IE9, the button does nothing when clicked (but my IE install may be corrupt, it does funny things).



Tested in Chrome 26 and Firefox 19 (latest versions) - worked fine smile
Excellent idea!

I have one story at nearly 27,000 views. Judging by its current trajectory, I should get my Famous Story badge in about 4–5 years.


Refresh, refresh, refresh... biggrin
I write because I enjoy it.
More than anything, it's about improving your craft and bringing pleasure to readers through your work.
To know your efforts are appreciated is important - that is why commenting on stories you have liked is valuable.
Praise is the reward and criticism is the mark by which you aim to improve with your next one.
Specifically with regards to lush, there are three things I would say are personal ambitions of mine:

** I would like to win a competition at some point; just because they are so much fun smile

** To have a 'Famous Story' would be great. Just the idea of that many people reading one of your pieces is humbling.

** Some more 'Editors' Choice' awards would likewise be a great honour.

Setting yourself a personal goal is simply a motivational tool.
Write because you love it, improve because you want to and with hard work you can achieve anything.

I looked into the difference between British English and American English a little. From what I can tell, almost all of the differences are to do with vocabulary, with a few related to punctuation.

Sure, Brits might turn a phrase a bit differently from a Yank, and the colonials have their own way of saying certains things, too. However, English is still English the world over and if it doesn't make sense in American English then you can bet your sweet ass it doesn't make sense in British English either.


Spot on.

I have just applied some fixes that shall hopefully mitigate the infamous 2:00am Lush crash.

I am that confident on this one I am willing to bet my left nut.


"My left nut? What the hell was I thinking!"



Only joking Mr. G
You do a great job, keep up the good work!

In our Friends Activity feed, could there be a way to let us know when someone has updated their profile in some way?


Good shout!
That would be handy.

Also - this is more of a design thing but how about:

Limiting the amount of text displayed in your own forum posts (as displayed on the left hand side of your profile).

Lengthy posts can really run on smile
How about limiting them to say 100 characters, with a 'Read More -->' link at the end?

The slamming makes me flood my flange custard all over his love lollipop. The unrelenting orgasms from his ample cock thrusting my tuna canal made me come so hard, I began sweating like a midget nun at a penguin shoot. Now, I've seen more helmets than Hitler, but the sight of his chubstep made my clunge gunge weep like a George Foreman grill. There was cock custard leaching from his chubstep and I was wetter than a waterfall. We were ready for more. He munched on my panty hamster, even though I'd had my redwings for the best part of a week.

Leaving my panties sunny side up on the floor was the least of my worries as his wensleydale wand shoved deeper into my fart valve. I awoke the next morning with my wunder down under still flowing. I thought it was over but his womb raider had other ideas. The sight of his balony pony made my clunge gunge leach like a broken fridge freezer. The mixture of sewer trout and magician's wax in my brown eye created the delicious sphincter sauce that he was so fond of. He munched on my piss flaps, even though I'd been up on bricks for the best part of a week.
