How to get invited?

Yeah, all the baby carrot "anonymous" wannabe's called anyone a cuck that doesn't write a complete BTB story.
My latest Loving Wives submission is sitting at a 3.69.
I've been able to get 3 of the stories that I'd started writing before the season started, published and I'm working on finishing the rest and starting up my 1st Christmas Story.

Mine tanked because it was an experiment where none of the three characters were sympathetic or even likeable. I wanted to see if they'd still take the side of the husband even though he deserved what he got.

A few "Good writing and story telling, but ugh..." comments and those are worth the low score.

As long as there's a Geek Pride Day event, I'll write for it. I really don't need any more terrifying deadlines in my life besides that.

Geek Pride was my very 1st Story Event.
It was fun.

I swear a lot of the "Loving Wives" readers are just pathetic phonies that wouldn't know what to do if a real woman even said "Hello" to them.

Their dumbass comments are funny to read sometimes.

The thing about those readers in LW that love to hate stories: they believe they are punishing themselves by reading those stories they pretend to hate. I think they do it: 1) to have an excuse to punish the authors of such stories by low votes and telling them how much they hate the "cuckold" stories, 2) because in actuality they have a secret yen, hidden even from themselves, for exactly what they protend to hate. Why? I ain't got a clue. Sometimes human nature, the motivation of the human animal is a twisted thing, no easily understood.

Like LC, even if I was invited to write for one of the invitationals I wouldn't. It's way too late in my life to be hankering (which I never did btw) to be one of the cool kid in-crowd. Having stood on the outside looking in being an observer for so long, it would feel like a violation of what I've come to know is me.

That said, I don't begrudge those who wish to do such things, those who want to live in an insular world of sameness. It ain't none of my concern, other than to watch and take whatever lesson from it I can.
