So, you're going to Hell. Or Heaven. Whatever. Even if you don't believe they exist. It's a Thing, okay?

You get to choose ONE item. You aren't allowed a "Get out free" card, or genies, or luck dragons or any of that crap. You're going to Heaven, and you're going to Hell. You can take one thing with you (no people or pets). What is it?

For Heaven, I'd take my daisy hairclips, because they're pretty. I'd wear them whilst eating gingerbread men. Nom nom nom!

For Hell, I'd take my glittery hairclips, because the daisies would wilt, and I love shiny, and all the fires of Hell would make them look so cool! Plus, it would probably burn off all my hair anyway, so I'd be sat round looking at them a lot.

What would you take?



EDIT: Could be stuff like a scythe for Hell, so you can nick Death's job, or angel cake for Heaven to tempt the sexy angels with.

I am waiting on her hand and paw.


You'll squash them! At the very least, she'll get pins and needles!

If you aren't sure what to do for her, perhaps you could actually ask her?

Okay, I left you in it (at least twice), but you totally get to scare the main character, so you get the best of both worlds.

There's a few, and I can't even bring myself to look for the one I hate the most, which actually an advert song. I REFUSE ever to click on the Go Compare site because of it, and if I ever meet not only the person who wrote it, but the people who said, "Oh, yay, what a fabulous idea for our company adverts," I will rip off their ears and poo into their brain cavities.

I can't look for the other songs either, or type their names, because I will get them stuck on a loop in my head.

Just a question about competition story scores. I know we can see the view counts, and comments, and I presume we can't see the scores because it's a competition, and it might lead to battles or something.

But will we be able to see the scores we got after the comp, please? I learn a lot about how people liked/disliked my work from the scores (even if others don't), plus, whilst I am soooo crap at maths, numbers are something tangible to me (although it's the comments I save in a separate document, as they mean the most to me).

So, after the competition ends, will we be able to see our scores, please? Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

In addition I wouldn't mind an option to wipe all custom background settings. "Show original Lush all over."


But a lot of people already do show all over of themselves to original Lush...

Oh wait... I see what you mean...

I have noticed there are many of us that are into photography. I was wondering if there was a thread already where people were showing their favourite photos that they had taken. If not, I'll start one...cheers. D


As far as I know, there's only this one: http://www.lushstories.com/forum/yaf_postst19845_Favorite-sunrise--sunset-shots-you-have-taken-or-found.aspx

But I would love it if you started a new one for anything! I love looking at others' pictures. I'll share some of mine if you do, as well.

I don't actually know what it is, but I believe, and I could be wrong, that it's not allowed in Lush story submissions. I don't dare Google it.

I agree with some of that, in that you don't have to talk to people you don't want to. But if I want a general chat I will talk to my friends or visit a chat site. This is clearly a sex site and I only visit it for sexual, er, reasons...


For some of us, Lush is multi-faceted. What do I get from it? I get answers to my questions, learn stuff I didn't know I wanted to ask (and stuff I never wanted to ask or know about), talk to some now pretty close mates, share my stories, get feedback on how to be a better writer, and there have been some days where I got all that and never even mentioned sex.

Lush is different things to different people, and with a site so rich in possibilities and resources, it would be foolish of us to expect all the users to be the same as each other, each requiring the same thing in the same way.

That's just what I think, anyway.

Fucking fuck. Oh to hell with it. Meh.



Ah, was this almost a Rage Cage post? Because I made a gif for that. I will put it on your wall, as it's far too un-meh for here.

In reality threats of suicide almost never result in a serious attempt at taking a life. That said any threat of self harm must be taken seriously. However I don't think anyone here is qualified to safely talk someone down from a heightened state of anxiety. If these people honestly feel they have no one else to talk to steer them in the direction of the Samaritans (in the UK) and stop the conversation as soon as you can.

It may seem that you're abandoning them - you're not - you're giving them the tools to stop. They want to stop themselves, if they didn't they'd already be dead. DO NOT TRY AND TALK THEM OUT OF IT.

In the UK, Samaritans:


Good reply, sir.

I have had many what I call "suicide watch" chats with friends or friends of friends, either on the internet, on phone, or via text.

Somebody who really wants to do it, will do it. Trust me. I know.

Most of the time, people are just lonely, need the attention, have got themselves hyped up, or are on something or drunk. There is nothing you can do - they take responsibility for their own life.

Recently, a distant friend of mine posted on Facebook that he was taking his sleeping pills, and wished us goodbye. He wouldn't answer his phone to us. Only one was close enough to get round there, and he was not aware of what was happening. A mutual friend phoned the coppers (he was 400 miles away), and they sent some round to the house where he lived, and an ambulance was called.

This is extremely rare, and the man in question is a little better. If you know where a person lives, and know them well, you will be able to choose what to do better. Often people like that in my life just want me to listen, or provide them with a sense of self-worth, and prove that somebody cares. But it can be a cycle with some of them, so I have to keep my distance with some.

Generally, people either want the attention (such as the lass who told me her little sister had stopped breathing, but she didn't want to call the authorities in case it was a false alarm, and she'd managed to revive her!?), and giving it to them makes it worse, as they play up for it. Other people literally need just a friend to hear them and listen to them.

But you are NOT responsible for their choices or their actions, and you cannot change the mind of somebody who knows what they want to do. Like overmykneenow says you can give them tools to deal with the issues, and you can be their friend, but you are NOT responsible for what they choose to do, nor will becoming dragged under help either of you.

Have some bookmarks ready so that you can access them easily if it happens again. Post them the links, and tell them you hope they take up the opportunity to seek the help they are asking for. Good luck!

Quote by LittleBambi

fuck knows where the boundaries of 'gay', lesbian' and 'bisexual' are.

Edit: having just re-read this I realise this is completely irrelevant to everything ever. Someone kiss my poor brain better!


Maybe that's the point? Maybe they are the straight man's free zone for some men, because surely it all depends where your own boundaries lie? They might not be every man's free zone, but they could be for some.

As Olivia says, there is nothing wrong with experimenting, and perhaps one needs to experiment to discover what one's boundaries are. "Sex is all about exploring desires and what feels good until you hit your limits... sometimes those limits change over time, but it's certainly very normal."

So actually, maybe your post made more sense than you thought it? I'd kiss your brain better, but I'd have to take the top of your skull off, and that's just... beyond my boundaries. How about a hug?

My characters lead a much more exciting life than I do.

However, there are pieces of my personality in them. In order to make a story feel alive to a reader, I think the characters have to be accessible to the writer. The writer needs to be able to put herself in the place of the characters, whether it be through personal experience or the intuition that comes from observation.


Brilliant!

She has a patchwork quilt of Happy and Colour all over it, and some sexy, sultry music displaying that she has depth. And she has some great stories just waiting for you to click and get rather hot under the collar...

Oh no they don't, I'd have to disagree there (bolded). I think the more social you are, the more friends you have, you will receive more hits. In particular, I think that what you've written in the past will bring others to your work, thereby giving your stories more hits. If Jaymal (and his is a likeness, not boobies) changed his avatar, it wouldn't matter because many of us would see the name and flock to the story OR we've been following him because we just have to know when he posts a new story.

I do agree with the remainder of your post. Thanks for this interesting thread.


My observation was based on general things and initial hits from the front page, as more than one male friend has told me about the difference when they change their avatar to include various body parts of the opposite sex. I certainly didn't mean to lump everybody into that category. My favourite authors on here so far are all actually male, and I didn't choose to read based on their pictures, but word of mouth. But others have told me that if they like a person's avatar, they will read. I don't know if I've read any of Jaymal's work yet, but others have told me he is an exceptional writer. Frank_Lee is another with a large following, and he doesn't have the girly bits avatar either. Talent attracts, I'm not denying it. But for some, what makes them pay more attention is nipples. Not all, I concede.

But I do think it has a lot to do with a large amount of readers - those of us who post in the forums and follow people very closely tend to be those who are serious about the skilled writing they present, and as such, simply to take one cross-section of readers excludes how others choose to read stories, which may be completely different. One lad told me he didn't bother to read my stuff at first because he was bored by my double daisies (before I changed to my crazydiamond button). He didn't find what he was wanting, but he enjoyed it in a small way when he did read a couple. But this is another thread, really, I was just responding to another post. We'll have to disagree about this particular point, sorry.

Thanks for sharing, everyone.

Clum, I'd reply to your question, but I fell asleep before I got to it, sorry.

It's not that a Master or Mistress doesn't want their sub to communicate with others or that they are afraid of them sharing some naughty things with others....it's the fact that their subs are inferior to them...and them may address any rules that they feel is necessary.

In my case....i am inferior to my Master....he is superior to me. One of his rules is that i am not allowed to speak to other males unless i have his permission. He does this to keep me in line. To remind me everyday where my place is. I am his...and ONLY his....and yes this does spill into real life too....but that is another thing.

And to be completely honest.....you personally won't COMPLETELY understand why these rules are established until you become a Master/Mistress....or sub yourselfsmile


Okay. I understand your points, and I thank you for responding.

However, unless I fully understand a thing, I do not feel it is safe to enter into a situation, particularly where I make myself vulnerable to another who has power over me. How, then, if I cannot understand, would I be able to be a sub or Mistress? How would I be able able to submit to rules or take control and lay them if I have no real understanding of what it means or requires?

I am not a talented writer like most here are and have only posted a few items but would like to respond from my uneducated perspective. Writing for me is relaxing and satisfying. When I was a child my grandmother played a game with me where she would tell me to write down what I was feeling:what I liked about her cookies, what the clouds looked like to me, etc. Now when I read what someone else has written, especially the Love Poems, I empathize with that author. As an example, and please forgive me if this is not proper to do because I don't have permission, but Mazza wrote a poem titled "Used" and it made my eyes fill with tears. I laughed at Shylass' "Cinderella". etc. Isn't this what good writers do, they make us feel emotions? No, I don't think Shylass has a glass dildo in her bum, but her writing made me feel emotion, and in so doing made me want to know more about her. I wanted to hug Mazza because what she wrote made me feel her loneliness. So yes, what you write does make the reader interested in knowing more about you, and it isn't just to cum on your avatar, it is because you as a writer have made us feel emotions.

Jeez, see why I'm not a good writer, I ramble all over the place But hey, thank you writers for making me WANT to know you because you have touched me and made me feel something. Keep writing, I promise I won't stalk you. Well............maybe not promise.1sD3SfTzQ9cXON9R


I think you need to delete that bolded part of your post. Because I don't think it's true. You are on my list of Read This Writer.
