How you all are? As 2020 slips into the rear-view mirror of life, it seemed appropriate to set the official tone for 2021 here in Rumplations with a few lines of verse.

"Well, they ask me why I’m drunk all the time
It levels my head and eases my mind
I just walk along and stroll and sing
I see better days and I do better things"

I 'Shall Be Free', excerpted from the 'Freewheeling Bob Dylan' album

Me, I guess that just about says it all.

As for New Year's Eve celebrations, the good news is we got in a big shipment of Rumplations own, Shampain.

And to observe midnight in due and ancient form, everyone holding a bottle of Shampain ins invited to jump, buck-ass nekkid, into the recently cleaned and renovated dumpster hot tub. (note: admission is free but there will be a nominal charge for post-celebratory dry towels)

Now who needs a drink or two and do you want 'em doubles or triples -- your call.

Kimmi, since you asked....

The last info I've come across on the subject note that third person is, by far, the most widely used. First person seems to be relegated to crime stories and a small percentage of Romance. Second person is seldom employed. Many 'rookie' writers of fiction gravitate to first person but while it does have well known advantages, it's limitations are such that it can be a beast to write, especially in longer forms.

As to attributions, sticking to 'he said - she said' is best though Seekers' suggestion for alternative dialogue tags is a good one. However, use adverbs seldom, if at all. . Tags along the lines of "Turn on the lights," she said, brightly, seem to be out of favor with editors, agents, critics and readers.

Stephen King's "On Writing" comes highly recommended by many. If you've read it before, consider a reread

Kimmi, the one unbreakable rule for writing successful commercial fiction is: Thou shalt not bore thy reader. Every thing else is a means to an end and should be considered as either effective or less effective and not some English teacher's concept of right or wrong.

Sorry about the long-winded bloviation. Hope some of it was of some help somehow. ;)

Greetings to all on this last day of 2020. smile

Big Bertha has been de-sludged, rinsed, and filled with dark roast coffee and water from the dumpster hot tub and is busy turning all that into caffineited ambrosia. The tea kettle is also hot to trot. For breakfast snacks we got your fried porkskins, Slim Jim's and beef jerky. Enjoy.

As of a few minutes ago the contest was still open. So vote late and vote as often as you can.

Anybody wanna drink?

This is sort of a personal request. If you can make the time, please read, vote and comment on the entry by, Willfull: Make A Wish...

https://www.lushstories.com/stories/threesomes/-make-a-wish-.aspx#scorebottom

This is possibly the best 'nurse fantasy' story I've come across. As someone with a wife, daughter, son-in-law, aunt, and cousin who either were or still are registered nurses, most of these hospital romps make it almost impossible for this guy who spent the better part of two years in and out of hospital to suspend his disbelief.

But Willfull's story strikes me as spot on with the nursing procedures and a special ppatient's medical conditions. Check it out if you can.

Now I want a drink. Ping, you ready for a refill? And anybody else out there needing something of a fluid nature?

Mega-congrats, Ping. Lyf got his entry posted earlier today. If he doesn't post a pimp soon, I'll try to get one set up.

Meanwhile, here's a spiced rum and Coke for you. Hope you don't mind but I made it a double. ;)

Anybody else need a drink or two?

Greetings to all looking with longing at 2021 which, it can be reported, is almost here -- trust me on this one.

Carl, thanks for the set-up and the crullers. Loved your 'doughnut' video but think the Randy Newman version of 'I Love LA' will continue as my fav.

The sending of positive vibes to Lyf and Ping as they endure 'editing madness' is hereby not only authorized but encouraged.

Think I'll grab a mug full of Big Bertha's goodness along with a cruller or two and join Fuzzy, Coma and Tose over at the corner table by the heater. So what about the rest of you sorry scribblers? Whadda ya wanna drink?

Earlier this afternoon (desert time) Rumplators witnessed the following exchange between Kimmi and Ping:

I don't think you back into anything slowly.

This is my reply to you Ping ... twerk ...

While I'm absolutely certain most sentient Rumplators applaud Kimmi's 'twerking' the Pingster, it should be noted that her reprimand was followed by her cat befouling her keyboard. No doubt it was just a one in a million coincidence, but....

Bunny, there's one realy big-ass airport out here in the desert. Feel free to drop in, so to speak, and leave a few slices of the cheesecake for my personal evaluation. Sarah's about four-hours drive away somewhere up in the mountains, but I'm sure you both will enjoy the visit, especially since her heater's now working.

Emma, you are one tough broad. A tip of the old sombrero to you and all our other suffering Rumplators.

No doubt some items of passing unimportance have skipped by what passes for my mind but a mug full of coffee, coco and Beaver Breath brandy is calling. Anybody else need a drink like, maybe a double or triple?

Greetings to all and several big HUGS to Kimi who, thanks to the never ending hard work of Carl (if you don't believe me, just ask him) was able to enjoy some hot chocolate with mini-marshmallows which can sub for the more traditional free beer for newbies.

It is a major goodness to hear from Gill that's she's doing better., at least physically. As for the mental, that will clear up sooner or later. Till then, what better place to hangout with a muddled mind than Rumplations?

There are several new entries including one by, Saucy which has joined my list of a dozen or so previous entries that are a lock to end up later on the podium. Check 'em all out, including Kimi's contribution, if you get a chance.

Now whadda ya dwellers in the shallow end of the gene pool wanna drink?

Sarah, here's your coffee and chocolate complete with a whole host of dem mini-marshmallows you crave.

Pingster,Regarding you outdoor, award-winning, Christmas lights, imo, imo it's a goodness that you are totally free of any trace of obsessive tendencies.;)

Jeff, thanks for the 'heads up' on the book version of 'Queen's Gambit'

And thanks to all who were kind enough to read and comment on the 'From: Becky...' story I posted (linked) here on Christmas day. . When good writers leave good comments its a ego-boosting major goodness.

Anybody need a drink -- I mean, besides me?

Scott, why not submit different versions of your WIP with different 'heat' levels? Not that it's any sort of recommendation, but I've done that with several stories. With some, its as simple as switching the sex scenes from 'show' to 'tell', others would require major rewrites making them impractical. And who knows, giving this a try might prove to be an entertaining even if not very useful writing exercise.

Just another fine, free, unasked for suggestion from the bookies at Rumplations. ;)

Greetings, to Carl and all other Rumplators who have successfully navigated through the long Christmas weekend. Now we must "gird our loins" as the Bible tells us, to endure the last Moanday mourning of 2020.

I've actually manage to post a story over on Stories Space, the family friendly Sacre Bleu site. 'A Winter's Day' is one of those breaking up is hard to do tales and comes in at just under 3K. As a bonus, it maybe the only story over there to list 'goldfish' as a tag. Please check it out if you get a chance. Here's the link...

https://www.storiesspace.com/stories/general/-a-winters-day-.aspx

And for the record, James and Penman are now listed among my friends. Who knows what unsuspecting Lushy Rumplators might show up there next? ;)

Okay, so who wants a drink and try to include what and how many among your order.

Me, I got a question. Jeff and G (Rumplations answer to Siskel and Ebert) were going on about the film, 'Queen's Gambit'. It got me to wondering if anyone as delved into the book, 'Queen's Gambit'? Word is it's a good read. Anybody care to share their opinion?

Congrats to Carl for the Chiefs win over Buz's Falcons

I'd bloviate even more about that and other issues of interest if not real importance but supper is served and that most definitely IS important.

Any drink orders before I chow down?

.
What, I say, what in the name of both Strunk and White is going on (or off as the case may be) around here?

I mean to say (or type), at the moment, Carl's Chiefs and Buz's Falcons are mired in a 7-7 tie late in the third quarter.

And then there's the admission by Sprite that her over two-million stash of old emails has been a drag on things in the land of Lush. Probably a good thing she won't be extracting them all in one stroke of the Delete key since that might cause the entire edifice of Lush to implode. ;)

Think I'll grab a mug full of Big Bertha's best brew, and a cookie or two then head out to the back porch on the chance the 65f temps out here in the desert might tempt Tawny to go skinny-dipping in the dumpster hot tub.

Anybody need a drink before I go out back, so to speak?

Greetings to all on this memorable, Last Sunday in 2020! That brings to mind the indisputable fact about the current contest deadline being 12/30. At the moment, there are 38 entries. The most recent is by the inestimable WannaBe..., and is, of course, highly recommended.

Big Bertha has been desludged (saved for Carl) rinsed out, filled with dark roast coffee and fresh water drawn from the dumpster hot tub. The tea kettle is doing its thing and there's a plate full of leftover Christmas cookies. Enjoy, just don't ask How they showed up. And forget not the bar's unique lineup of beers, wines and our always popular fine lickers.

If you're still sleepy, feel free to ignore this question -- but for everyone else, whadda you holiday hoodlums wanna drink?

Merry Christmas and all that jazz.

What follows is sorta, kinda,something of a Christmas gift from your beloved blind barkeeper to all Rumplators wherever they may be roaming.

this is a link to a one-of-a-kind Lush story in that it is:

My one and only contest winner -- no fooling -- back in the second ever Lush contest -- the standards have skyrocketed since then.

My one and only story with a strong Christmas component. That is to say, when a story opens and closes with a very pregnant, and most unmarried young woman sitting in a Mall food court on Christmas Eve, well that just shouts seasons greetings -- right? Enjoy or ignore, it's your holiday call.

https://www.lushstories.com/stories/love-stories/from-becky-for-matt-with-love.aspx

Holiday greetings, big HUGS, many thanks to Curvy for the setup and just for being Curvy, and to all other Rumplators whether ya want those hugs or not. ;)

Tis the season to feel Mary and Gaye with maybe a handful of Holly as a bonus. Think I'll fill my mug with Big Bertha's blessed brew, grab some of the special brownies then join Coma and Tose to contemplate life, its consequences and inevitabilities along with other seasonal ruminations.

'And though it's been said many times many ways, MERRY CHRISTMAS to you.

'
If this dang link works, doubtful, I'll be back to fill in the blanks, maybe.

IT WORKED! Sweet mother of pearl, but the age of miracles has not completely passed


A multitude of thanks to Carl, Scott and anyone else who joined in the search.

This is a down tempo rendition by Lane which has always reminded me a bit of the late Patsy Cline


'All I Want for Christmas is You' Cristy Lane (from way back when)

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kCyXjD2_k7k


smile :)
Greetings of a seasonal nature to all well seasoned Rumplators!

Many thanks to Carl for his valiant effort to locate a link to the Cristy Lane version of, 'All I want for Christmas Is You'. I suppose with the commercial success of the Mariah Cary version and such things as copyright snags, it's just fading away. That's sad but on the other hand, not unlike an infected bunyan on the big tow of life, Rumplations will never fade away but if the end does occur, it will go out with a giant bang, if we're lucky. ;)

Meanwhile, y'all make the best of the worst and belly up to the bar for a free cyber drink.

Now y'all be 'good' little Rumplators or not only will Santa be pissed, Sprite might show up with an even worse attitude than usual and her taser.

Carl, I'm still wrestling with YouTube, so if you don't mind, would you cue up the Cristy Lane version of 'All I want For Christmas Is You'? I'm thinking it would be nice for some of the younger crowd, their ears no doubt filled with the Mariah Carey rendition, to hear how it should be sung.

So who needs a drink or two?

Greetings on this, the hallowed last 'Hump Day' before Christmas. It's a major goodness to have so many Rumplators at least semi-healthy in body if not in mind. ;)
This is a tough holiday season for a lot of folks, both the healthy and otherwise. in the midst of all the disruptions and melancholy, remember the immortal words of the 'Four Wise Men' (Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young) 'If you can't be with the one you love -- love the one you're with.'

I'll drink to that. Who else needs something of a fluid nature?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Pingster! Don't fret that this means you're getting older but try to recall how you managed to get through the last year of your existence and how you're gonna manage that again.

*tar Bellied Boy (note: Can I join your club -- I'm more than qualified, trust me?)missed you earlier so welcome to this den of deep-dive degenerate degradation. Just think of this cesspool of carnality as your home away from home. ;)

BTW, enjoyed reading your contest entry, but only after waiting for a freaky thunderstorm to pass by before finishing it -- you know, in case of divine lightening.

And now it's past time for me to fill my mug to the brim, grab some goodies and join Coma and Tose at the corner table to contemplate life and wonder what the hell's gonna happen next. Join us if you think you can stand the excitement. Meanwhile, anybody else need a drink?

Greetings to all, especially those struggling with yet another Mournful Moanday.

That 'Super Covid19' situation Emma is dealing with over in southern England (Kent) is disheartening and scary. Hang in there, young lady. We're all pulling for you and yours.

Congrats to Carl on his Chiefs topping my Saints, 32-29, in the superdome.

Me, I don't know if Vanessa's contest entry is fittin' to read -- but based on her earlier stories and on the fact that in its first 12 hours, it piled up 16 comments, I'd say the odds are pretty damn good it will prove well worth a read. which I'll be doing soon as I finish with this foolishness.

Grace, if you don't work your recent 'pee post' into a LUSH story, the world of erotic writing will be the loser -- and you'll have to put up with me heckling you but only when not busy pissing and moaning about the situation. You have been warned. ;)

Okay, we got Big Bertha's coffee, a tea kettle ready to put out, Christmas cookies from Tonya and doughnuts from Carl. So who wants something to drink adn/or eat?

Greetings to all who had a 'good night' and condolences to the rest of us.

Pingster, sorry to hear your muse has gone AWOL. As for mine, 'dereliction of duty' would best describe its recent contribution to the epitaph of my most undistinguished if enjoyable writing career. (sigh)

Thanks to Carl's efforts, coffee and doughnuts are on my immediate menu. Anybody else want a drink or two?

Break out the big bottle of Rumplations' own, SHAMPAIN.

My LSU Tigers scored 53 points today while the...
Hated Ol' Miss Rebels scored 'only' 48 in One helluva game if not exactly a defensive struggle. ;)

Pingster, how's it hanging old hoss? Couldn't help but notice how you trailed in right after Vanessa. Just saying.

A Christmas party sounds like a winner. My only question is who's gonna haul in the truckload of mistletoe?
or however much it will take to cover the ceiling with the stuff

So who wants to try some of the SHAMPAIN?

:GLASSES8:
For those needing a warm-up type drink, the management and staff of Rumplations recommends our drink that's so special it needs no name. What you get is a mug filled half and half with coffee and hot chocolate then enhanced with a shot or two of our own, Beaver Breath Brandy.

But wait, there's more -- we have a One for the price of Two special on these drinks this weekend. And just for Rumplators, the person who comes up with the 'best' name for this drink will earn one on the house.

After one or two of these you'll feel warm and wonton and, trust me on this, wanting a third.

So who wants one of them or maybe one of our other, more traditional drinks? ;)

Greetings and welcome to all who have spent the last few hours wandering around the WWW wondering who turned out the lights. Just for the record, the problem appears to have been damn near everywhere, not just LUSH.

Thanks to Curvy and Big Bertha, we're being welcomed back with some mighty fine coffee and besotting brownies along with Carl's delicious doughnuts.

There's a slew of college football games on tap for today. Enjoy. To keep what passes for your minds active, check out the new story by TechGoddess, 'High School Sweethearts'. It reaffirms the concept that while any sex is usually good, and fucking is more often than not, great, making love is incredible.

Anybody want a drink? I mean, this is a bar after all or, to be precise, a honky-tonk and cyber bar.

James, it could have been worse. I mean, at least Sprite didn't use her taser on you. She didn't -- did she? Speak to us James. ;)

Oh, mercy to my goodness.

While James is in what must be some sort of stunned, catatonic state, all drinks are on him. so whadda ya malcontents wanna drink?

In the last few hours, the following contest entries have appeared. Me, I've read the ones by Michelle and JayMal. So there's more reading left for me to do. What about the rest of you literary lay-abouts?


Season Of The Witch PalindromeRedux
Professor Raskin's Magic Potion LakeShoreLimited
The Temptation Of Coffee CuriousAnnie
The Ghost of Fucks That Never Were Jaymal
Fuck Me Harder, Skald Twisted_Skald

Just another fine free service of the managent and staff of, Rumplations Honky-Tonk and Cyber Bar, Uninc.

Anybody need a drink?

Greetings and HUGS to all still capable of something resembling semi-coherent communication. Maybe this is just me, but someone could piece together a pretty good 'Debauched' contest entry by detailing yesterday's depraved debauchery.

Y'all keep on the lookout for Tonya and other Rumplators in the northeast and other parts of the snowbound USofA.

Me, I'm gonna fill my Deep Hole Fluid Injector mug to the rim (think of it as a Rim Job for caffeine cravers), and a few of the beignets left by a certain Voo-Doo do-gooder, and then hang around to find out what the hell happens next.

Anybody else need a drink?

The current carnal carrying on is being briefly interrupted for the following message.

It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that today is the 245th birthday of, Jane Austen. All celebratory drinks will be charged to the tabs of our lovely UK lady writers.

That is all.

Whew, getting a word in edgewise around here can be a challenge. ;)

So who wants a drink to celebrate the birthday of Ms Jane?
