We call them tights here, and you never wear tights if you want to look sexy and plan on getting naked so why would you write them into a story? Nobody I know wants to read about a woman in Nora Batty tights.
Hey Verbal
Exactly. It's like having a character fart in the middle of sex (unless of course you are into that).
Hey Kiera! (insert hug here)

Serious congrats Amelia. And congrats to pix, Hannah, and Beff too. Really fun contest. I like micro, though I haven't had much experience writing it yet.
It's also very cool that all those who placed were girls.
May I suggest you name the toaster Zuul? As in, "there is no toast, there is only Zuul." (Sorry, Ghostbusters reference, I couldn't resist.)

So, first of all, there might be a few more Shards. I can't imaging never writing about this couple again. But not for awhile. And I won't label them as Shards.
By the numbers: 38 flash fictions, 8 short stories, 19 Recommended Reads, 1 Series Award, 1 Editor's Pick. 7 of the flash stories have been sold to magazines and sites.
The stories follow our couple from their first meeting, through their various rendevouz in hotel rooms, to moving in together, and marriage. The sex is hot and BDSM-tinged, but emotion is always present, and their feelings toward each other always tender.
That was one of the goals of the stories: to show rough, sometimes brutal sex in the context of a deeply loving relationship of equals.
Thank you to everyone for showing such support for this two year project, whether as an editor and second set of eyes (Curvy, Rumple, Ravenstar, Shannon, Molly) or as reader. Thank you most of all to Layla, because this is all basically one long love letter to her.
Anyway. The Last Shard.

Thanks for the morning Joe, Tonya! Good to the last drop (anyone else here old enough to remember that slogan?).
Weekender, I like your story too, and I agree with Julie's comment about the ellipses and the LOL. The sentence fragments didn't bother me - that's how people talk. Mostly I like that you took the suggestions with the grace and good will in which they were given. People are so often acting like mad dogs these days, offended over everything, it's nice to be reminded how classy individuals act. You two are a nice reminder.
Thank you for the very kind and generous comments everyone has left on the story thus far. I know 10k words is a lot to get though for both parts, and that there is sometimes a lot of dialogue to wade through, so I appreciate you taking the journey. The comments are very encouraging. I am content with my small but loyal (and eloquent) readership.
Ms. Köffee (aka Hannnah) (aka the One True Flick): you may put me on the "no" side of the ledger for the next comp.
EDIT: My final thoughts on the Shards are up at the Shardoverse thread now: https://forum.lushstories.com/yaf_postsm3102836_The-Shardoverse.aspx#3102836

One problem I'm finding with the sub-115 word format: I'm hitting the time limit on scoring because they are so short. But it's a good problem to have. If you don't have a lot of time and opportunity for reading, these stories are great.
Yeah, that 2 minute timer kept tripping me up too. Worth it, though: it was cool to read a whole bunch of the stories at one time, you really got a sense of all the different places people took the theme, and all the different strategies they used iin getting the story to stay under the 115 limit. Cool comp.
Hey Hannah!!! What DFW short story did you read? Or was it an essay?
