If we have an account on the blue site an we link it here?
Just want to make sure before maybe break the advertising rule.
You can link to your Storiesspace account from Lush, that is fine.
Linking to Lush from SS might not be so wise due to the younger public audience of the website.

Beachy smells... sunscreen, sand, saltwater on skin/hair. Coconut water or the flesh/rind itself or anything naturally coconut (non-sugary version of the scent). The ozone in the air after a thunderstorm, the hot pavement sizzling after the summer rain. Fresh-from-the-shower skin.
Perfect.

Hello. You guys are My Friends and I like speaking and sharing with you...
Some months ago, a Musician friend of mine introduced me to THIS song and THIS band:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmhACB1ZPQM
(It's a version of a Frank Higgins-penned song, based on REAL testimony from a survey about Child Coal Mine workers in Northumberland, England in 1842.)
For DAYS after discovering this, I couldn't listen to it without weeping... I just felt SO SORRY for Her... I wondered WHAT HAD EVER HAPPENED to Her, and of course I can never know... So I decided to WRITE her story...
It's a lovely idea, Stephen. I listened to the song and wondered myself.
I did a bit of research for you...
Patience Kershaw was born in Northowram, West Yorkshire in 1826 to John Kershaw and his wife Elizabeth Haigh. She was one of eight children.
She died unmarried at the age of 42 in March 1869, in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.
(I prefer your ending.)

over 2000 nominations for 20 spots? No. Plus late entry nominations are allowed in most futurities.
I know nothing about horse racing
What happens if you place a bet on one of the 1,980 horses that doesn't run?
Got a joke...
A horse walks into a smart cocktail bar.
The doorman says, “Wait, you can’t come in here without a tie.”
The horse goes out to his car, looks in the boot and gets a set of jump leads, which he ties around his neck.
He goes back in and says to the barman, “This alright?”
The barman says, “Hmm, okay... but don’t be starting anything.”
Got another...
A poorly-looking horse limps into a bar with a bandage round his head. He orders a glass of champagne, a vintage brandy and two pints of Guinness.
He downs the lot and says to the barman, “I shouldn’t really be drinking this with what I’ve got.”
“Why, what have you got?”
“About £2 and a carrot.”

This happens in horse racing all the time. You can bet on derby entries today. For next year. Favorites get their own entry. Others go in a pool called the field. As you notice I bet the field for third.
Don't you know who all the Derby entries are though?

Quote by ColletteXx
I thought the closing date was the 20th?? Are you writing off any other entries?
It says the 20th on the competition page when I look at it also. Might be a timezone thing Gav programmed in?
And I think the point you were making was that it was a little unfair to start a book on a competition before all the entries were in? I agree. It's not over until the fat lady sings.
Best of luck in the comp

I'm here TWELVE YEARS!!!!!! (More or less... Okay, less...) I don't have a Fucking EP...

But no EP... No Sir... No way... Not for THE IRISH... Uh-un... Not gonna happen...
(Liz has TWELVE of them and she's not even totally used to Solid Food...)
That's NOT a sexist euphimism BTW...
Load of bollox...

Nicola: "We generally award our EPs to people who can at least spell words like 'euphemism' correctly..."

Granted, but you get so carried away with your baking that you bake far too much and most gets wasted.
I wish I could get my bum off this settee.
Granted, but only your bum.
I wish England would win the 2014 football world cup.

Um professor? Is there extra credit available?
He's the janitor, sweetie.
We've tried to stop him wondering into the classes and writing all over the blackboards, but it's no use.
Just go with it.

This was a very interesting critique, Steph. You actually dissected the poem much in the same way as I did the second time I read it. (No one should consider all of these elements when reading something for the FIRST time. I think you should just immerse yourself in the language and enjoy it.)
I am a fan myself of implementing nature as a metaphor. Whether it be a magnificent sunrise or a fierce storm, it is a powerful and beautiful thing, and can be used in endless ways to convey a feeling or emotion.
I'm also glad you picked out one of my favourite lines in the piece, "Creating a space where love can die..." - That is a really thought provoking sentiment. Doesn't it always feel like that when you tell a lie to a loved one? Like each one creates a tiny little crack in a perfect surface. It is the space between the lies, the cracks, through which love can be lost.
I'd love to see more of this sort of work from you.

Firstly, it would obviously depend on who they are. And for me, personally, it's important that the girl is 100% into the idea, that she is not coerced/guilt-tripped, etc into it. Preferably, I'd be closer to the girl than the guy in that couple. Call me finicky but I don't see any other way how this can work for me (and them).x
How about two girls?

The lesson for all should be to, "BACK THE FUCKING THING UP" to something besides main memory. I mostly use an IPad now (love this fricking thing for it's convenience) but I'm getting the high end IBM pad. The options for file save are an order of magnitude better. It's a real pain in a very soft spot on this.
I've looked at scrivener but I prefer Word, another reason to go back to IBM. On the IPad I use Textilus. It's in the APP store and it's free to start. The purchased version has a couple enhancements but it basically works under any IOS system. I never liked Macs because of the case sensitivity. That started because of file name lengths but that problem went away 20 years ago and it's still there. You can write a book in the file name now. Well, almost.
Very true. You won't find a bigger advocate for backing up your work than I. I actually wrote an extensive forum guide about it a while ago.
All of my files are sync'd across three separate cloud storage services. Redundancy! The issue was actually using a writing app that only runs on a single OS platform, unlike Word. Google Docs was very good, and more than sufficient for the job, but I still think the pros outweigh the cons for Scrivener.

that means they also have worked on my story which was published a couple of months ago, but now it got rejected seven times, and I asked 'WHY?'
Don't you think it would be nice to submit your work, and have it verified without having to volley it back and forth with the story mods several times first?
Perhaps you should view this as an opportunity to learn about the aspects of grammar that the moderating team keep explaining and fixing for you. After publishing six hundred stories, that seems like a fairly sensible idea.
There really isn't that much to it.
Scarlet Seductress
Joke all you want, but I'm seriously pissed off about my Mac right now.
I write all of my stories in Scrivener, so even the Chromebook which I have been lent as a temporary replacement can't run it. I've got to try and find a way to copy my comp story out of a proprietary format I can't open, and into a Google Doc so I can carry on with it.
A lesson for all of you who use a platform specific writing app!
At least I have a few more weeks.
*sighs*

Yeah it was explained. They didn't like the title. I read some of his stuff. He is okay. I wouldn't call great but that's just me. Apparently to you he is a great writer and that's all that matters. Keep reading and enjoying his stories. I have message in my box. And they are not the same person. The that declined a story because of the title was female.. I just found it ood that he would decline my story to the site yet want to read more of my stories.
We don't have a female story mod called Buz.
And we don't reject stories because we don't like them. If they're within the guidelines and of a sufficiently readable quality, that's all we ask.

I had a story declined because the person that read it didn't like the title. I'm not bsing you. I had one Editors not give me any reason for why the story was declined. But said they liked the story and would like to read other stories of mine. And his name-o was B-u-z-z. I in so many words told Buzz he would not be able to write like me no matter how of my stories he read. I've had some some odd experiences with trying to post things. I told my dad about that and he urged me to stop giving away stories for free. I took his advice.
If a mod returned a story to you and their only issue was the title, then it would have been something that either broke our guidelines or was grossly inappropriate. It also would have been explained to you in the rejection.
The particular mod you are referring to is a wonderful writer, and a recipient of multiple EP awards. I'm quite sure he considers the fact that he doesn't write like you to be a blessing.
Your delusions of grandeur are comic gold to read, but how about leaving other authors out of it?
