Any idea when this might get resolved. It’s a PIA having to log back in when simply clicking on “reply” to a reply.
No ETA, sadly. I flagged it to the dev team again this morning.
Weirdly, some people seem able to post replies just fine. You seem to be one of the unlucky ones. Me, well, I'm halfway between the two. When I tap in the Reply box, the login window tries to pop up but never completes. It just spins forever. If I then go Back a page, I'm still logged in, but ultimately have no way to leave a comment reply.
Bizarre.
It's rare that a Flash story creeps into your psyche and makes you think - really think - about the situation the protagonist finds himself. And yet that's exactly what chris21235 manages in Do You Know? in around 700 words.
It embodies everything a Flash piece should: thrusts you into the characters, makes you wonder how they got there, and what will happen next. And it still leaves you thinking after reading it. Masterful storytelling.
Please do check it out and give the story some love.
Congratulations, Chris on your EP award for this story.

Flash EroticaCurrently penning the final chapter in my and Kimmi's vampire trilogy, Love At First Bite.
It's not your run of the mill Gothic horror fest, so even if it's not your thing, you might enjoy the series so far.

I make too many mistakes (leaving out a word or putting the same word twice in a row) that my eyes tend to skim over no matter how carefully I think I'm reading
That's common. I get word blindness too, and it often stems from familiarity with the text. Being accustomed to the position of words and layout. You can trick your brain into spotting them by doing one or more of the following:
Temporarily bump the font size or browser zoom level, which moves words to different lines. This can also helps catch disguised line/paragraph break glitches.
Copy and paste the content into a different app to edit.
Read it on a different device, mobile, laptop ...
Start from the end and read each paragraph normally, just in reverse order (or each word, from last to first, if you're hardcore!)
Change the font colour.
Read it aloud.
Have the computer read it out to you.
There are a tonne of little variants like that you can do to jar your brain into spotting mistakes.
Yes, 10,000 per submission. But see this poll for some insight into what readers here prefer, which might sway your decision of where to break up longer works.

The stories were supposed to be listed in chronological order
Uhh, sort of.
I think (not entirely sure) that the list actually shows Platinum authors first and then everyone else after (don't ask why: I argued against it!). Each set is in reverse chronological order. But because mods are "implied platinum" they don't get listed in the first set.
So the order is:
Platinum members: newest first.
Mods, gold, silver, free: newest first.
Is that perhaps what you're seeing?
