I just submitted my first story here on Lit.

I hope I got the submission procedure right. And that I don't have the usual PC-Mac religious conundrums.

What I'm most pleased with is how hard I've worked on it. It's been a long time since the Muse was talking to me. I've been putting in four hours a day, eight on the weekend. Damn, that feels good.

Well, something was often talking to me before, but I just put on my tinfoil hat and it went away.

Thanks again PorscheLynn for your help.
 
You're very welcome, I look forward to reading the final version. It was a pleasure working with you. And I reckon that was the Muse, I find that voices that are silenced by tin-foil hats don't coax nearly such lovely imagery. ;)
 
Congrats! :nana: Don't forget to put the link in your siggy when it posts!
 
Way to go rgraham! It's a good feeling isn't it? You'll be wondering very soon, how long it takes a story to post....

:D

Yooohoo! Give us a link when it's posted. Want to see what you have for us. :)

ps. 3 to 7 sheep days.
 
I will warn you that you're going to have to get through a bit of character development to get to the hot parts.

Stories of any kind just don't do it for me, reading or writing, without characters and their motives.

Ooohh Goody! This is how I write as well and I love a good build up. But be warned, not everyone here subscribes to this. But those that bother to read through are often very generous and positive in their feedback. Keep us posted and let us be the judge. ;)

Amen. Now I'll definitely read it.

Right again lucky.

Four times a day I'm here going "Is it up yet? Huh? Is it?"

I feel like a kid at Christmas.

Arrrrgh!

Still waiting!

Patience, dear man. Things always slow down around contest time and since the contest just ended it shouldn't be much longer. Keeping my fingers crossed it'll post soon.

~lucky :kiss:
 
Sigh. Rejected.

I tried to upload an rtf file and Mac rtf files are apparently different from other rtf files so all the editiors received was garbage.

Sigh.

So I just pasted straight text into the box. I hope that works.

I guess I have another week to wait.

Sigh.

graham, it's going to be worth the wait when the feedback comes in. :)

Check out the preview if you've copied and pasted into the text box. It will show you how your story will appear. If the preview is okay then there' won't be any problem.

Hope it appears soon. :rose:
 
Aw, sorry to hear that RGraham! :rose:

We'll wait it out with you again. :)

:D You're cute. :D

If you haven't found it yet, it will be right next tp the Submit button when you paste in the box. You can see it now by clicking on the pending link and going to the submission box, scrolling down and clicking Preview next to Submit. But this will put off your story's posting date by a few days as it will get it to the bottom of the submited stories' list.
 
Thanks dampy.

I figure I'll be all right now.

It's just that with the Internet being around for 30 years now, you would think it would be easier to transfer stuff around with out all the computer ha-ha's that keep popping up.
 
Finally!

First chapter is finally up.

Yay!

Here ya go

I would dance, but I'm way too 'effen tired and hung over. Plus they decided to do road work outside my place today. Jackhammers and the whole nine yards.

Arrgh!
