===========================

I agree so much with much of what you have said, especially about the e mail. I have received some very wonderful e mails, two in the last two days in fact, that have moved me greatly. I had to respond to them immediately, and was very grateful that they weren't anonymous so I could let them know how appreciative I was at their kind words.

I have been replying to all those that gave me feedback. I'm sad that a few were anonymous so they did not leave an email. I wanted to thank them since they made me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

I have started going back to all the old stories that I enjoyed in the past and giving them feedback. It's such a pity that I didn't do so earlier. Tawny T was one of my favorite writers and it sadens me that I never got a chance to thank her for her work. I sent her feedback but its unlikly to reach her since she is no longer is a part of literotica :(
 
Not that there's so few votes, but

I have had the privilege of being accorded the number one story in novels and novellas for a couple of day, maybe more. My chapter 9 gave me much joy to write, and quite a bit of joy at its acceptance. Honestly, most of them gave me great joy, but this was literally one of the best.

Imagine the wonderful feelings that I have had being a first time author, to have my story garner so many kind words, wonderful comments, and the best wishes from so many wonderful people. I have been overjoyed at the response to my story.

To be sure, like any story, it's just not for everyone. However, many comments have been made about people low-balling a story for whatever ludicrous reasoning their minds conjure up.

I have to admit more than a bit of pride, and yes, disbelief that others have thought my story to be as I felt it to be. I'm naturally prejudiced, but how is it that other's have felt as I do? How nice.

What has not been nice is that I foolishly tracked many of my chapters after I suspected that there might be chicanery afoot: a sudden 1 vote when I know the story is good, and some chapters well worth praise. When others validated that appraisal, it really got to me.

I set to disregarding the votes. Shucks! I couldn't. I'm too new at this, I guess. But . . .

When the highest rated chapter, holding that number one spot suddenly got what must have been a 1 vote, that really rankled. How disgusting.

Vote it a four, or even a three, though I'd really have to question the three too, but not as I would a 1, or perhaps a two. By no rationale have any of my chapters been a "1" type piece of writing unless you were just trying to diss the whole story in general for nebulous dislikes, or pure mean spiritedness.

I won't complain any further, but I have to seriously consider no longer putting my work out there to be "rated" by morons, or possibly worse.

For what it's worth, and not seeing that anything can be done about it without crying like a little baby to Laurel, I will remain faithful to those who have let me know that they liked my stories, and continue to post them when I have one that I like, and hope that they will take a measure of pleasure from it also.
