2009 Survivor Off-Topic Chat

I have no motivation to do anything right now so I am going the weirdest thing in the world. I'm watching old infomercials on You Tube :)

Erin

Did you see the Durex commercial links on the AH? Those were funny. :)

I'm heading to bed. I'm cold and my head hurts.
 
Morning all...

Funny story:

My oldest daughter (20yo) moved out on Friday. So I spent all day Saturday and Sunday re-arranging the house. I now have a study/playroom for my younger daughter. But last night, my hubby commented...Wow, you haven't been on your porn all day. I told him actually not since Friday afternoon. He was shocked. I guess it was a not so subtle hint to take a break from the contest sometimes?

But I'm back today.

Well I can't move out since I'm the momma. :) I'll just have to try my best to get writing done while they are in school.

I don't get on the computer much when hubby is home. Unless he's on his, of course, lol.
 
Literocat? Are you around? I know you had an issue with a story being too violent, and I was wondering where the line is. I think the story that I am writing is fine, because there is a gun, but it's never used other than being pointed at someone during a nonconsent scene...
yes, the readers will probably hate it, but.. just trying something new.

Am I a round WHAT? :confused: How insulting! :eek:

After taming my Subway Slut, it still wasn't enough. I finally put it HERE. I still think it needs more punch. Sometimes it seems wether or not it's "too violent" depends on the phase of the moon.

My crowd go back to school after the summer break tomorrow.
I was hoping to celebrate with some writing, but hubby's just been put off work for the rest of the week - a beetle got into his ear last night and went burrowing. He now has a perforated eardrum.:eek:

Wow...sorry. I hope he gets better soon. I know how hard it is to write anything with our inspirational hubbies hanging around.

They don't call this the Survivor Contest for nothing. Wait until August. You'll feel the weight of pressure then.

My advice, since you asked, is to use the shorter stories as inspiration for longer works and vice versa. Use the shorter stories to experiment with your writing and to try new things by writing in categories that you wouldn't ordinary submit a story.

While working on longer pieces, I generally get ideas for shorter stories. I seldom work on one story at a time. Most often I have a dozen of unfinished stories that I revisit daily or weekly before submitting them.

The shorter stories should be a joy and not a chore to write. Have fun with them. They don't all have to have a sexual theme. Now is the easiest time when you have plenty of categories to fill.

My advice is not to think of the category. Just write the story and then pick the category later. You seem to be boxing yourself in by defining the story by the category. Just write. You'll know where to submit the story once you are finished.

You're off to a good start, thus far, but to win this contest, you'll need to average a story a day.

Good luck.

Gees, every time I see you, you look the same. Shades of The Picture Dorian Gray (lol). Don't you ever age?

What's the weather like there?

It's cold and plenty icy here.

What does your mates think of our new President? I hope they perceive him better than who we had before.

i've had this av since 1974... okay, feb last year was the photo.

yup. cold and icy here too. mebbe snow in the next week.

as for the pres? well, we have a few probs over here right now, so your pres isn't really a focal point. generally we hope he's a positive influence.

as for me, george, vicariously, sent me to iraq. as it goes the trip was a positive. i came back tanned and lookin' good. i also retained my limbs and suffered no PTSD - result! :D

i hope you stop in every now and again, freddie. i'd hate to lose touch.

Lucky you. I know some her weren't as lucky.

Yeah, well, I don't plan on being on the board all that much. I've been busy lately with some new business ventures.

Take care and have an ale on me.

heh heh. pop in from time to time. say hi. :kiss:
 
They still come out of the woodwork. This is a PM I just received from PrincessAirHead. Obviously, she reads but cannot comprehend the posts that are made here or anywhere on the board, the poor thing.

Well, here's further proof that these contests are being fixed and the winners are cheating to win a few lousy dollars.

You have received a new private message at Literotica Discussion Board from PrincessErin, entitled "someone's cranky".

To read the original version, respond to, or delete this message, you must log in here:
http://www.literotica.com/forum/private.php

This is the message that was sent:
***************
[personal info prohibited per our forum guidelines]

I realize this will be deleted as soon as I post it, but it will remain up long enough for everyone to read the type of person PrincessAirHead is. She even admits that she had others helping her to write stories. She admits that she cheated to win the Survivor Contest.

Before you delete this post, Laurel, you should demand that PrincessAirHead pay you back the $500 that you gave her. Cheating should never be rewarded. She needs to be made an example of for anyone else trying to cheat in a contest. How dare you Erin. You are totally unbelievable. Did you think that I wouldn't copy and past your PM? Who is the crazy one now?

She won't post her hatred for me. She's more sneaky about it. What she does instead is sends me daily nasty PM's and she still bashing my stories. The woman has some serious head issues.

Moreover, she can't write for shit. She writes like some of the special needs students she gives lunches to in school as a lunch mother. That's right. She's not even a teacher. She's a lunch mother.
