Then again, "As usual" doesn't really apply. My latest string of releases have all been younger women. I suppose it's more "Back to my bread and butter."
Has anyone noticed sweeps going on yet?
I haven't had one yet. Do they really start this early? I thought they didn't happen at least until the submission window closes.
I think I have too many votes to place, but if a sweep doesn't take me into the 4.80s I'll be disappointed. Twice I was at 4.81 and twice someone didn't stop 1-bombing me until I hit 4.79, only took about 3 consecutive votes each time. (Not to mention how many other times my rating was dropped drastically as it climbed.)
The one thing that can't be taken away is the amount of views I've gotten or the ripple effect with my other stories and their views or the increase in people following my work. I'll take it. That's more important than a W. And I finished second once, so I'm good, even if when I put the story back onto Lit it doesn't get the W next to its name (that's the price I pay for removing it in the first place). And as long as I keep entering, there is always a slim chance at another, though I may have to do it under my other name to dodge my stalkers and it won't be Taboo, so the chances are better, I think?
The thing about trolls and whoever else is dropping 1's is: They spend more time thinking about me than I do them. Outside of Lit, I don't think of Lit. When I see my author's page, I'm happy. The 1-bombs and discussion boards is like being at a bar and someone says (because they always point it out) 'My co-worker keeps picking his nose in front of everyone. Why?" ... everyone laughs and they move on and in another week, the nose picking will be mentioned again to a couple of laughs, understanding nods and the conversation will move on.

No sweeps yet but I think the sweeps this time should be interesting and I am looking forward to them.
I compiled the standings yesterday morning. I noticed that the two clear front runners have quite a few votes and scores that are probably not high enough to win. That makes it possible that the eventual winners will be people who are currently back in the pack and not suspecting the outcome.
Yep. It should be interesting.
Does anyone know what the next contest is, or when it will start? It would be nice to start writing it before the contest actually begins.

I don't know the exact dates but I think it usually opens in early August and closes near the beginning of September.

I actually added a short scene to my story and then . . . . my computer ate it, along with everything else. One of the few things not backed up on a flash drive. So unless the computer coughs it up, I'm done.
Someone who's going to bother jumping off to give you email feedback to say, oops, sounds genuine, but then I try to see the good in people first up.Troll or Not?

Hey, don’t delete this message, it’s not negative.
Now just to let you know I apologise for the low scoring, I hit the wrong button and it stayed like that I think this deserves a 5/5
Now, on one of my other stories I received a similar email (not comment) - that pretty much said the same thing. What do you think: The same person screwing with me, a little, haha, look what I can do moment? or sincere?
What's the old saying, fool me once .. fool me twice.
