to techgoddess, I understand all of what you say, but I am prolific and get new story ideas every week. Consider that at this moment I have 40 5,000 word chapters all finished in draft form and am ready to start 5 new serials of 6 to 7 chapters each. At the rate of one submission every 3 weeks l will still be submitting the already finished chapters up until next spring. I'll be half a year older.

Message from the haunted house. I am 67 and retired, living on a limited income in London. To pay a lot of money here would be difficult. At Literotica all submissions are free and I have published a few novellas of 60.000 words with no problems. So I'll go back there.

Unless you pay for the privelege of fast tracking, you may look at a new publication once a month. I am a non-member and have become increasingly frustrated with the wait time, as I have a lot of chapters to add to my existing work. I have been told that the moderators are all working free and in their own time and reviewing long submissions takes time. I get jealous when I see some of them publishing work every three days while I have to wait and wait and wait. So I have quit submitting any more stories on this site.

I'd like to see where the thong ends!

I have tons of unpublished work, some of which are finished, some are half done, and a stack of serials pending my attention which will probably never get sent to lush. Reason being the slow process of submission. I expect to publish elsewhere for those.

I can see the main issue is the workload on the moderators and not content or the notion of readers enjoying longer prose. I doubt that the entire readership of lush prefer just sub 5.000 word stories where there is no room for character expansion or in depth detail descriptions. At this moment in time I have about six new serials in draft form with about seven chapters in each, not to mention half published works with chapters pending. So at the rate of one publication every 7 to 14 days this will mean there is no point writing anything new until June 2026.

Thanks for the thoughts. It's by no means of a struggle to try to get under 10.000 words a chapter. I write with plenty of detail most of the time rather than flash bang wallop if you know what I mean, and that means wordage. As I said, as I am prolific, the limitation means it will take months to publish my work on this site. I am aware of the full potential of upgrading, which might be a solution if I decide to cough up the bucks.

The current list is almost right, but as I am quite prolific in my writing with lots of ideas and time to write, I would like to see a Novella category, permitting stores of up to 60,000 words, as the stifling limit of only 10,000 words can be frustrating. I have about 5 serials in draft mode containing multiple chapters, which will probably take months to publish here one by one.
