New Milestones Thread

[AStrangeDesire]

First time ever I wrote a complete story in one day. I had another idea last night for 'On the job', and sat down and hammered it out today.

Just shy of 4,400 words, totally 'pantsed' it, just let the characters take things where they wanted. Though, I did take a walk in the middle of the day to think about some stuff

Edit: @redgarters I like how you highlight your latest story in your signature and stole the idea. Hope you don't mind

@redgarters has patented that idea, so you will need to pay a fee like the rest of us did in order to license this amazing technology. It's pretty affordable, a few thousand dollars per instance of updating your signature for new stories, so it's probably not an issue.



Also, nice job! Doubly nice that you pantsed and let the characters take the lead. Best pantsing approach there is!Welcome to the dark not-at-all-dark side.

First of all, and in reverse order, I've pantsed plenty in the past, including 2 - 100k word novels that will likely never be read by anyone else. This is not something to mourn, but something to celebrate and be thankful for.

Second, and to the your first point, I'm happy to pay from the revenues generated here. For anyone else I owe, please form an orderly line, and fill out all demand-forms in triplicate. Then wait your turn. I'm sure funds will appear momentarily.

I finally have something that has under a 10:1 view/vote ratio!

Granted, it's 66 views with 7 votes for the song I wrote...

Still!

Congratulations, that's quite the accomplishment! And I'm not just blowing smoke up your arse.

Why not? I think he would've liked that.

I know for many here, 'those are rookie numbers', but I just had my first story with over 250 votes...

Which feels like a milestone

We all started with no votes. This is a milestone to be proud of. Congratulations!

That's impressive!

So, how many people do you have on the payroll?

I have one that comes close, but it's at 10.38/1.

102. I need to get those other bastards to read it and vote.

Gimme a second.

Edit: lol, misread that. I thought you were looking for a 69th follower, so I was gonna follow you. Hey, you wanna follow me, I won't say no. I'm not a proud archaeopteryx!

Edit2: Screw it, followed you anyway. Now you have 145!

Me: Yo, fuck off, Attenborough. I'm pretty! *sulks home*

Well, I know it's not a moon landing or anything, but this feels like a devilishly important milestone to me. And I had a hell of a good time getting there, too!

In a lot of ways, this is a bigger milestone than the first. Congrats, and keep going. Third time is the charm.
