Ah, Hockey.. Dad took me to a fight once, and a hockey game broke out.

Time for some tea, I think.

Not sure I have a favorite, but three I read at least once a year are the Dragonflight trilogy by Anne McCaffrey and the originals. I like the other in that world two, but I REALLY identify with Lessa

Welcome. I've only been here a minute myself, but there are great peeps around here. Don't get discouraged if it takes a while to get your sub through the pipes.

I.understand but you can't get a proofreaderbas they can't access drafts plus the secure sex stories and I dint fee anyone that reads thesevatevreally concerned about a missing come or punctuation. We are not English majors

Lush needscto stop.being so demanding

As Sprite said, even your post is difficult to understand. That's where Grammarly or another program helps. As far as getting your proofreaders access, you can share access with Google Docs. The hardest part there is keeping track of versions, since you cannot create files. BTW there were 7 corrections in my post from Grammarly..

Exactly how does the Novel genre work? are all chapters entered under that genre? a minimum amount of words? For example, my Mira series, Part One, was published as hardcore. Could the series still be a novel? I want to do something in each category

It's been averaging 5 days for me

Chrome is the way

My ex could not do it, but he liked lying his back against the wall, lying down so he could cum on his face

On days I telecommute, I'm usually in a FSU polo and panties from when the kids go to school to just before they get home. Only reason I wear the polo is just in case i get a teams call

not married, so no

Oh please. They are not ready to see the culling on either side of the aisle, especially with the name Clinton out there. Sure, a few like Rogan may get taken down, but there are a LOT of D names that have yet to be exposed. They thought this was a gun, and they are now realizing it's a bomb, and they are standing right next to it. now they have to figure away to step back before half the government comes tumbling down

If it's a comment i try to reply. Might not if it's a simple Great story. I will for certain if there is feedback, Like someone saying I can't wait for the next part. I'll try to reply where that enxt part is, of if it's a one shot, I'll say Let them live happily

Well, Fu..

New member and new(ish) author here. I’ve been writing for a little over a year. Prior to finding Lush, I never even thought about cover art.

Before I published my first story, I wasn’t sure where to start. Then I saw a forum post that said it was acceptable to use AI to create cover art. I’ve been using ChatGPT. The amount of time I’ve spent is borderline embarrassing. Between the time it takes to render images, coupled with the number of “content violations” I’ve encountered… Yeah. Like I said, embarrassing.

Yes, I realize that there are probably some better options outside of ChatGPT. I just have not explored them yet.

I am curious… How important is cover art to you? How much time/effort do you put into your cover art?

A lot. at first I thought well I can find artwork and slap it around in Photoshop. Then it hit me out of the blue. My kids can probably teach me about AI. Now I can create a book cover almost exactly how I want it. I knew I kept them around for a reason. The hard part now is keeping them from seeing what Mom is creating ;)

Yes I'm definitely branching out. I'd like to hit every genre. I've hit 4, and if i can get my head around the one rattling around, I'll tick off Supernatural. But for now, concluding the first book of Mandi, Finishing Mira, and TMBA are what I need to do. clean the slate some.

I hate grammarly.

It should be used as tool to check for obvious errors, if needed. When it starts suggesting things or changing the author voice, it can take a running fuck to itself.

In my most humble opinion...

😇

especially if you have it check for AI. Every story I write flags at least one section as AI. I don't know if it's my sentence structure (Or lack of) or my vocabulary.

I use Firefox like 80% of the time. Recently, I logged into the website, and everything that should be red is blue, and none of the links work. On Chrome, it's fine.

anyone else finding FF misbehaving?

every time i masturbate in front of someone i get jumped

I'd try a vamp story, but I don't think I could pull off horror, let alone erotic horror, and TBH the whole vampire diaries type stories don't interest me much

I'm not too picky. and bow to the boys usually. if it's just me i like Miller's Ale house big red chicken sammich

Quote by Just_A_Guy_You_Know

That's probably the thing that drives my writing most - There's plenty of hot and sexy writers out there, but at the end of the day, no one's better at turning me on than me. So, instead of expecting someone else to do it for me, I just write what I want to read and make myself happy.

You know, I'm the opposite. MY stories don't do a thing for me, but I rarely go back and read them after the fact. I finished Mandi part 3 today, but I didn't even get hard nipples. I never do.

Today, in my bed! And yes, I'm STILL glowing
