Chatterbox Blonde- Rumps Mystical Bartender
Well Katherine first of all welcome to Lush.
Everyone determines what they want to contribute and what they want to get back.
So you can be a very happy and successful Lushie without writing a single story, many people do.
Some people are hugely active on the chatrooms making friends, having fun and finding their place there.
Others prefer to post on the forums and can be found actively putting messages all over the boards.
The most important thing is to start by trying as many different things as you can and when you find where you feel most comfortable and get the most pleasure from keep doing that.
I usually recommend anyone who writes or who likes being around people who do to come visit Rumps bar in the Pub forum.
There's a great crowd there, we have lots of fun and we like to see new faces.
Hope that helps a little.

I do love a military band.
I hope you lot like my fab new look, I figured I'd need to properly look like a bartender for a while now I'm on duty.

Struts into the bar creating a sensation in a flame red jumpsuit, big gold hoop earrings, cherry red platform shoes and matching leather finger-less gloves, hair back combed, crimped and piled high.
Dances across the floor like it's the dance floor, gives you a bit of the Saturday Night fever finger pointing dance, the funky chicken and drops it like its hot a few times.
Swaggers off the dance floor, pumping the air and giving the room a cool confident look.
Bounces towards the bar, puts a foot on a bar stool and vaults myself into the air, somersaulting over the bar landing with a thump on my feet. Gives the room a short moon walk sequence, before flicking the Witch is sign from OUT to IN.
Morning disco cats and kittens, the dancing Witch is IN.
Invokes the power of Disco and summons a large sparkling ball to hang from the ceiling. Dances over to Big Bertha and gets her ready for the day to come. Fills the big kettle and does some disco finger chops while it comes to the boil.
Snaps fingers and trays of pastries appear on the counter.
Yes my cool cats and kittens, we are open to slake that thirst you have for tunes, food and drinks too.

Skips in whistling a happy tune, dancing across the floor to get behind the bar. Pours the sludge from Big Bertha to the side, and refills it again with the best beans she could get on the way here. Places a soft kiss on the metal before flicking on the power to make fresh coffee.
Refills the kettle and checks all the teas and hot chocolate are properly laid out.
Places a tray with mini marshmallows, a few locusts crickets, and a stunned mouse.
Yes Terance, you keep being a good spider and the goodies keep coming. Just don't run up the legs of any of the ladies here, Kimmi might get very upset and accidentally drop a heavy wooden chopping block on you. I don't think you'd enjoy that too much.
So be good, did you want more marshmallows there, ok.
Places a tray of cranberry and white chocolate cookies, a large frosted carrot cake, and mini apple crumbles on the counter.
Slides the Sign to "The Witch is IN" and looks around the room.
Morning fellow deviants, hope your day is going well. The spirits are kind, the muse is feeling saucy and the coffee is hot. Life is feckin' awesome.
A big shout out to our new arrivals DarkMuse, ErinLeigh for not only getting their tales published, but for being outstanding talents too.
I'm so thrilled that you're part of our little community, and visited the bar too.
Keep showing us how wonderfully creative and talented you are, if nothing else it makes my kinky pencil jealous and nothing motivates a muse quite like the feeling she's being outclassed. Oh she comes out fighting when that happens.
Well DarkMuse you did ask some good questions. I don't own Terance and frankly he makes my skin itch but I'm being ever so brave and not setting him on fire or stomping him. I suspect Bill the owner of this wretched dive might consider it a tad rude to go smashing the staff.
As for having a Witch behind a bar, that's what makes a bar feel strangely familiar even though you've never been there before.
If you need me for Witch stuff just call me Skald and tell me what I can do for you.
DD I hope your back feels better, sometimes it's damn worth the pain for the pleasure you got, so keep ticking.
Gracie darling, I've got some back rub stuff back here if you want to rub the knots out of his back. I was always keen on a little massage in my submissive days. Gave a truly killer foot massage if Mistress was to be believed.
James dear always a delight to see you, especially when you're being such a lovable clown. I'd be lost without that goofy smile sometimes.
Speaking of smiles, where is Elyse? I need some super squishy cuddles this morning.

I love you all more then I can possibly say. Such wonderful responses from you all. I'm learning so much about how you all present your work and what you as a reader factor into your decision what to read.
Chatterbox Blonde- Rumps Mystical Bartender
Hi Maria,
I don't know that we have too many editors out here. There are members that will read over your work and give you feedback , but most of them prefer to be your friend before they do that.
There is a list of the story moderators here, but I don't recommend just sending them material, they're extremely busy looking after the story queue.
What I would suggest is write up your work, run it through Grammarly, and Word spell check a few times.
Have a look at the advice sections on this part of the forum and Morgan Hawk's exceptional guides.
Go visit the forums and the chat rooms , introduce yourself to this wonderful community.
When you do that you might find someone who likes the way you write and is willing to proof read your work.
If you really want a brutal critique submit a story and the feedback you get is exactly what you need to work on, but it can be hard to take in one go.
Best advice is what I Got from James, Write fast edit slow.

That almost sounds like some kind of incantation
Chatterbox Blonde- Rumps Mystical Bartender
That's a very open to interpretation question.
I've pretty much seen most of my family members naked at some point. Go to the beach as a kid and you pretty much all run around in the buff at some point.
Go for a swimming class and a parent takes you, so you seem them naked too.
Now if you meant, who have you seen naked that it provoked an inappropriate sexual response, then probably my cousin E.
She's a few months younger then me, and she had curves when I was a washboard. I was so jealous, and wished I had her body.
That girl has absolutely no class these days, and dresses like a total tramp despite having 4 kids.
Such is life.
and that's not including what I've drafted up to the end, so I feel like it needs to be completed even if it's just for me. I'm trying to wrap up this part, so I can move on to what would be book 3 to conclude it.
