Just wanted to say hi. Been reading from Literotica for a long time now. Finally officially joined under the pen name AL_Gator. I have written for some time as well and was finally talked into submitted.

Fist one is out "The Date" with two more pending. I have another dozen or so in various stages of completion. I had to to a break due to the home/work schedule but hope to get back into it again as a form of relaxation.

Again, thanks for the opportunity and I welcome all feedback, positive or constructive.

Hi, Al, and welcome to Literotica and to the Authors' Hangout. Take off your shoes and have a drink, but don't try the biscotti. It's stale.

Welcome to Lit and the AH, Al.

Post a link to your story and we'll read it.

Thanks everyone. Still trying to learn the ins and outs of the site when I have time.

As for posts...

Pending posting

I have several more in various stages of completion, just no time lately to work on them. Maybe I'll sit back with a drink and try one night...no biscotti though!

Take care all...

Bummed...

Well, The Date stayed on Hot list until today. Dropped under the 4.5 range after 5500+ views. Oh well...just makes me want to drive on harder now! Just released the third story - The Storage Room. It seems to be taking off now. More views than The Date in a shorter time frame also. Right on the cusp of the 4.5 for Hot rating. We'll see I guess....

Thanks for the support here on Lit!

Don't get discouraged. Remember, even a 4.0 is an 80% liked it story.

Good luck, welcome to the AH, and remember, you write for yourself and they will come. The more stories you post, the more of a fan base you will build.

Even if your stories are few, if they are good and well written, the fans will find you. It takes time.

Understood...thanks. I'm not letting it get to me. I have several more stories in various stages of completion that I will work on as I have time. I did read some of the postings on whats hot and whats not. Tink4Fairy did a good one on breaking the Lit toplist. Makes some good points. That, coupled with what I have seen from being an avid reader has given me some insight into where and how I should post new stories.

it's all good, takes more than that to discourage me!

Thanks for the reply...

And when a topic your story fits comes up, link it again in the text. That seems to be effective marketing.

You found out about my dastardly tricks. Who told you? Come one Bear, talk.

Welcome to the AH. Lots of good folks here. If you want more exposure for your writing, enter one of the special contests. The next is the Valentine's Day contest. The only OFFICIAL Literotica contest. (http://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?t=740748)

Watch out for the trolls and the egomaniacs, you'll figure out who those are in time.

The bar and the buffet are open.

Good luck with your writing.

Thanks for reminding me. With the Holidays, I had to go drag that thread back up from the second page.

Thanks for the feedback!

Do you mean a Forum Topic? I had thought of that, but figured it would be rude to post like that. But if you're referring to a forum topic, then maybe that would work.

Cat's out of the bag now Tx!

Thanks for the link and thanks for letting me know when the "Official" one is! As for the Trolls and Ego's...nothing I can't handle. They are fun to deal with! <evil grin>

Thanks for all the feedback everyone, I do appreciate it!
