If you get the chance, chat it up with Tatelou. I'm pretty sure she's got that category down...

Thanks for the tip. Tatelou? That name seems familiar as well. I think I might have read one or two of hers. She hangs out here too?

Thank you lil elvis (are you?).

I have read a lot from the BDSM category here, and it is quite a mixed bag. Some of it blew me away and some was, well, sub-standard, shall we say? And you are right, I have realised that score can mean very little. However, the high scoring ones with a lot of votes do tend to reflect the quality of the piece.

I write what I want to write and to hell with those who don't like it.

How I became l_e is a long story....but known only (I hope) to AH regulars.

As to the writing, good for you.
 
Ms Katrina said:
Thanks. So, I've still got some more weird and wonderful people to meet then. Should be fun.

Ok, I will do.


So, what do I do if I get a thirst on? It's ok, no need to answer that.
Go to Abstrusion's it's the local wateringhole.

Good attitude to take. I guarantee the trolls will slap you down at least once and if you follow your votes religiously, then it'll be a kick in the gut.

Ms Katrina said:
Oh yes, yes, YES! My God, that is extremely sexy. Is that really you?

Yes. A second GBYLCS. I should put up my chesty goodness avatars more often when I've got coursework to do. It's a hell of an ego-boost.

Seconded. She helped me no end when I planned my initial foray into that category. What she doesn't know isn't worth knowing.

Ah right, so you haven't always been little elvis. Were you Big Elvis before?

Thanks.

I had a look at that thread before. Do I have to read the whole lot before I post in it?

Jeezus

Nah, just jump in, that's what I did , but I also lurked for a long time.
 
QCI do like how you keep quoting me ...makes me tingle each time you use me....my words I mean :D


I see you've met the Earl Katrina...he's a good'un...he'll look after you *grins*

No need to read the whole thread. People wander in and out all day just to shoot the breeze.
 
Abstrusions is just our local bar. The general protocol is to pop in on the last page and join whatever conversation is going on in there. Oh and be very rude to someone called Abstruse. It's an AH tradition, which you must keep up.

Nah, it takes a lot to get me down. Thanks, though.

Sorry, what does "GBYLCS" mean? Yes, you should keep that avatar up all the time. But, could you take the photo a bit lower next time.

Ok, good to know, thanks. I'll pounce on her if I spot her. Not literally (not my thing).

Sorry, that's a me-ism. God Bless Your Little Cotton Socks.

I'm not sure what inspired the choice in names, but every time I see you've posted, I get SNL flashbacks. Nicholas Cage dressed up as "Tiny Elvis" saying: "That steering wheel is huge..."

*shrug*

Maybe I'm just a freak...
