I've asked the developers to put this on the wishlist. As mentioned, a CSV or similar one-row-per-story export isn't difficult, it's just whether there are other things that take precedence when we get some more dev allocation.

Since my latest First Time escapade seems to be attracting some good feedback, especially about the dialogue and humour sprinkled throughout, I am embarking on a follow-up in the same vein. No timescales on that though, as I'm stupendously busy.

I'm also working with the incredibly talented KimmiBeGood on a possible Gay Male adaptation of a fabulous story she wrote.

First Time

I edit the fuck out of it before I submit, to the point where I usually don't love it anymore.

This is me too. I end up questioning if it's even erotic any more because I'm so tired of reading it and changing a word order here or there, or removing this, or rewording that. Typos still get through somehow, so I tend to give them a once-over after hitting Publish so I can fix anything pronto before a mod gets to it.

When I'm close to 'finished" and my objectivity has taken a beating, I invariably go through this period of self-doubt where I hate the story so much that I don't press Publish.

I usually then leave it a few days, come back to it and edit the fuck out of it again until that nagging doubt is stomped out. Then submit.

I do tend to reread my stories occasionally. If I'm doing continuations, it's imperative to get my head back into the voice and tone of the characters, and to refresh the ol' memory. But mostly, for newer works, it's to check I'm not recycling ideas by mistake.

A fantastic achievement for a prolific and consistently high quality writer. Congratulations on this immense milestone, good sir.

Yes, it may take a little while for newer stories to bubble up and replace what's there, so please keep an eye on it and if it still feels wonky, then raise an issue. Thank you.

I'm reliably informed that the trending calculation has been tweaked. See how it fares now, please.

I effectively have to pay to get my stories published?

No. You can elect to pay if you are impatient or would like to take advantage of the other perks that membership affords (more messages, greater storage, access to member forums and chatrooms, etc).

We are reading, processing, discussing and offering advice to authors of the deluge of stories - several hundred a week - as fast as we can.

P.S. your story is also around 10,000 words and, from a casual skim read, could easily be half that with some judicial editing, without losing any of the plot points, and providing greater story momentum. A moderator has to set aside well over half an hour to read it, as will potential readers. Consult What story length do you prefer to read for some insight into the reader preferences here, as it may shape your future submissions.

Has the site encouted AI narration in Audio stories?

We have authors who routinely submit audiio narrated by a machine. It's about as sexy as asking your sat-nav to recite a shopping list, but each to their own I guess.
