I'd say keep them at ten. Five people getting them is better than one or two! But that is to me the best idea. But some people would say if you offer one or two in a larger sum, would entice more people to come out in the hopes of getting them.

We can make a practice thread for this month using the first person, and the "It was a dark and stormy night..." Where a person completes the end of the sentence, then begins (not ... more
Can someone post the story all together at the end to read all in one go as well?

My story was in first person as well.

Sorry I missed the meeting. Right in the middle of dinner time, and I'm usually not even home on Mondays. :/

Thank you Arien, Destri, and Woman...

I wasn't sure if the Shift would pull people out of the story, but I wanted to make sure it was seen as a break. I did have part of it meant to be the growth of a relationship (and the middle part definitely was). I set out to show the most important kisses of a man's life and how they can change his views on relationships.

The kiss of his mother as an infant, the first kiss you dare to take, the first kiss with someone you think you may love, the first kiss of someone you know you are ready to spend your life with, the first kiss with your blushing bride, and the first time you kiss your child. (Which I made a daughter to keep the synergy).

Thanks for the kind words all! Sorry I wasn't present for most of the meeting, I got slammed at the tax office and didn't have a break.

It really was great. It caused me to flash back to the teen years and my complete nervousness at wondering when the right time to "make the move" would be.

Not a problem this is why the forums are open after the meeting! Once I took some time and actually read the story in one sitting I saw the amazingness of this particular work. I'd love to do another book sometime and include this piece. It's amazing.

Ok... I second that. Does that mean the notion is passed??? LOL!!!!

I still would like to do an erotic book BUT each story would have to be with toys!!! Then we could call it, "A Season for Toys" and and and and and...

+1

Ignoring you would be impossible, like ignoring the North Wind. LOL

and there is absolutely nothing wrong with toys. Most of my stories use at least one.
