Happy Geek Pride

My magnum opus (for me) Caputpedes - A Tale of the Space-whores has finally seen the light of day. Along with all the other contributions. Lots to read.

I know many people have put a lot of effort into this, the authors obviously, but also the lovely and talented @ChloeTzang

We got a 1-bomb too.

Not even an explanation why. Maybe the tentacles. They are ratings killers.

I seem to have attracted a “fan club” by having the temerity to write a non-traditional Loving Wives story. They have been pouncing on anything I publish and also working their way through my back catalog, targeting any 4.5x stories - six of which have been 1 bombed to 4.4x or lower since I polluted their safe space with my deviant ideas. I’m not making this up, I have before and after stats, it’s quite clear.

It doesn’t help being an uppity woman either. Yes I had that said to me; twice.

TBH I had many positive comments and PMs from LW people (two thirds of the comments were positive only three twentieths negative). But the “moral minority” on LW is very active. I’m assuming they have nothing more positive to do with their time than 1 bomb me. And one said I was clearly not getting laid enough. Oh the irony.

I haven't read the stories yet, but I scanned the list and Do Androids Fart Like Electric Pigs by PJ Trousers gets my award for most creative title.

Hadn’t noticed that. Can’t say the title makes me that keen to read it TBH.

Well. You are kinda uppity. Not that it's a bad thing. Just saying.

I said 'most creative,' not 'sexiest'!

Creative? Yes. Enticing? Not so much.

It’s a loaded term. Men don’t get called uppity for saying stuff (white men anyway).

If it's a loaded term, why did you use it to describe yourself? Why not "Outspoken" or "Haughty" or "Pretentious" or my favorite "Bumptious"?

4 x ️5 + 2 x ️1 = 3.67

you're a full 2.67 ahead of me

I wouldn't say uppity. Cheeky, perhaps, but not uppity.

Yay me!

Holy page turners, D! Fifteen action packed pages. People are probably still reading it. I'll have a look over the weekend.

He’s an animal. I thought mine was long at 9 pages!

Let me know what you think of the Slang. Sir Terry invented a continent that he called XXXX so I put my characters there in Bugarup XXXX but they went out back for a while.

Oh, holy cow. I just looked the word up. It is not used the way I thought it was. I thought it was used in place of wild or outspoken. My apologies.

No worries, hun. I didn’t think you meant anything bad.

I haven't got uno bombed (yet - I'm sure it's coming) and I have a female's tentacles used on a male.

I'm sure the hate is headed my way, it just hasn't arrived yet.
