Pretty When You Cry

I will never have a story score this high again. And I imagine once I post this it'll drop quite fast and I don't care. It's 2.7k words and despite the edits I see that I could make in it, it's probably the first story I've written in a while that I actually felt as I wrote it. I think I finished writing it in like an hour and a half or two hours maybe?

Not the typical BDSM story, it's a stroker with heart.

So, sort of writing, and while not erotica or even a story. I published my first mobile app about an hour ago. It’s only in my phone right now, but will be coming to the App Store in the near future.
I know it’s out of scope, but there are a bunch of code heads in here, and probably a few dart aficionados. Besides, I like you guys(and girls), and it is a milestone.

For those who care: .Net Core, Blazor.

My Office Wife story reached 15,000 votes. Many thanks to all who take the time to vote.

(It’s a Loving Wives story)

My On the Job story reached 10k views, which is nice as only one story of mine in the last year did (and far from the best one!).

Got another category ticked off (NC/R) and all the comments were positive, including two explicitly requesting sequels, which I don't think I've had before.

It has a score of a round 4, which feels like a milestone in itself for anything vaguely articulate that isn't in LW. I'm not at all surprised some voters hated it, but quite amused that none of them wanted to say why!

I published my 39th title on Amazon this past week. That feels like a milestone to me.

EDIT: My bad, 44th!

Another milestone, Millie figured out how to count!

 

[MillieDynamite]

I've often said, math ain't my thing. Or to be technically correct, maths is not my thing.

Wait. Isn't 'maths' plural? And then shouldn't it be "are not my thing". British English is weird

No, it's singular. "Mathematics is a field of study." Not "Mathematics are a field of study." "Maths" is the British short for "Mathematics." Americans say "Math." But it's the same thing.

Oh, thanks for explaining that. Makes perfect sense now.

I stand by "British English is weird" though, for a variety of other reasons.

Preaching to the choir, brother. All those unnecessary "u's," like in "colour."

I knew that, cause my Mum is an Aussie from England (originally).

Wait a sec now, that's just proper spelling.

I mean things like "He just about made it!" meaning, in UK speak, he totally made it. Elsewhere in the world, 'just about made it' means 'got close, but didn't make it'.

There's no logic in that...

We have an analog to that here in the States. It's Minnesota-speak. If a Minnesotan responds to something you say by saying, "Well, gosh, that's interesting," what they really mean is "You're full of shit."

I prefer the southern "Well, bless your heart." But I get what you're saying

 

[MillieDynamite]

Then there's the "Well, isn't that nice" when someone says something you have no interest in and aren't listening to, but have to give some kind of response. However, I often say, "What the fuck are you babbling about?"

I kid! I kid!

My newest milestone - I currently have three stories (different categories) in pending purgatory

Also, and I don't know if you're old enough to remember this, but

 

[MillieDynamite]

I know what it's from, but no, I've only seen that on YouTube.

 

[AStrangeDesire]

I still can't believe the number of votes on this story. I know the real milestone will be 1,000 votes, but that's still a little while off

 

[Fatdog25]

May 7 was my third anniversary here.

I passed 1.5 million total views on May 5 and today I hit 1,500 followers.

Those numbers do not seem real.

Dude, that's awesome! ~40/1 view/vote ratio's pretty damn good, too. It's a good story, doesn't surprise me.

That's fantastic! Especially considering that's all off of 23 works. Very impressive.

Wait, wait...

"u" s are essential, otherwise it's fck off. Just sayin'.
