New Milestones Thread

Just submitted my latest to Smashwords.

Its E-book #225

I can honestly say that back when I published my first for sale work in March of 2011 that I would have never imagined this being possible.

Spring Break Wife topped 4 million views. It’s the #6 most viewed story submitted from 2014 to 2024. Thank you to anyone who read my first submission.

I hoped it’d get to 30 thousand votes by the end of the year, but it’s at 29.7k.

My most viewed story, Teacher's Challenge, just hit 199,991 views. Sure I could have waited for 200000, but 199,991 is a palindrome and that's cool, too.

Happy Palindrome! Next up: 200,002 views!

You called it: 200002...

This is my horn, this me tooting it. Toot-toot!

This is my horn, this me tooting it. Toot-toot!

And we all know that tooting your own horn leaves your virginity intact.

 

[theWollstonecraftWoman]

Far to late for that with me.

I published my 10th story today, Cheating at Church Chapter 2.

 

[Omenainen]

I got my 500th follower. Also me and AMD’s story that sat at 4.99 for months finally got its 100th vote, promoting it to top list which naturally means it’s not at 4.99 any longer but it was good while it lasted.

 

[Thanatos_X13]

The 1st chapter of my long NC/R series just hit 1k votes. Also recently surpassed 300 followers.

The Smashwords Winter sale took me over 34k sales all time on their site

It's a very small milestone, but my new story Who's Coming for Friendsgiving hit the Hot list in record time for me, 10 hours after publication!! Every other story took days to get there, if at all

 

[SimonDoom]

My story Backseat Loving with Mom has reached over 108,000 views on its 23d day since publication, and sometime later today it will move to number 1 on the 30-day most-viewed toplist. It's my first story since 2017 to achieve that distinction.

Amusingly, the number 2, 3, and 4 stories right now, including mine, have the word(s) Backseat/Back Seat in them! It's a popular, but certainly not original, theme.

 

[SimonDoom]

Well, that was a short reign. My story Backseat Loving with Mom was number 1 on the 30-day toplist for one day, and today another story surpassed its view total. Now I'm back to number 2.

Literary glory, like the satisfaction from an orgasm, is fleeting.

You might say your story is taking a back seat to the new one...

They should just rename the Incest category to "Backseats of Cars"

It's where all the best incest happens, I guess.

 

[StillStunned]

Idea for the "Born to Run" challenge: "Riding on the backseat, riding on the backseat... On the backseat until the end!"

Ain't love grand for a few minutes at a time?

I've made it a point to never lower myself to writing one of those.

Oops, did I just accidentally step in a taboo subject for incest writers?

 

[MillieDynamite]

When I was your age, I never chased a boy or called a boy, or sat in a parked car with a boy.

I've made it a point to never lower myself to writing one of those.

I getcha. I have a story that got to #1 all time and stayed there for a week or so before dropping to somewhere in the top five. It stayed there for a good long while. I was happy with that. Then the recent top list shenanigans began and it spiraled into the 20's. I'm not too broken hearted. It still gets a lot of views, and that's the goal.

 

[SimonDoom]

I'm not too broken hearted.

That's healthy. If you're still at the point that "I'm ticked that my smut story just lost .04 points because of a bunch of capricious smut readers" isn't the same thing as "I just lost the love of my life," then you're doing OK.
