I have just discovered it's so relaxing NOT having a story in the competition
You really are off colour, girl. I'm selling my shares in Intel.

lol @Chloe.
This was my first entry in a contest. I was more worried that my scores would be lower because it was in a contest. However, I am very pleased that my story is scoring well and is my best-rated story so far. (I have only posted 5 on Lit). Though, I admit, now that I am enjoying those high scores, if the sweeps knock if way down, I might suffer a little disappointment. heehee.
I've been able to keep a certain amount of distance--I don't think my score is good enough to potentially place in the contest, so I'm not stressed about whether it might.
But my follower count has grown more than I hoped for. Dear god, does the taboo category ever get a lot of views. This is nothing like my experience with my Halloween horror story.
That's why almost everything I post ends with not only a request that readers vote, but that they only vote once.
I've gained .01 points, but I'm also gaining votes. Are there times when stories AREN'T swept for a contest? My story hasn't been swept yet (that I can tell). My other stories have.
I've never had a story before which never touched an 'H' in the first weeks. Hasn't even come close. I'm more concerned about that than the contest atm.
I thought it was a nice little story too.

You won't be able to miss the full-fledged contest sweeps when they happen. They're bone cutting and you'll be hemorrhaging votes at a rate that will take your breath away.
We don't have any idea when official voting ends, either.
If it was me, I'd end the voting a day before the announcement for exactly that reason. Completely eliminates the noise of those 11th hour votes.
