I just reached my 5555th follower, after 7 years and 8 months of writing stories. I thought that was a cool number.

That’s quite close to two new followers a day, on average. Quite an impressive and consistent climb!

Just think how many more you’d have if you had written more stories in the place of 16,500 forum posts! Obviously kidding, your input in the AH defines your place on Lit almost as much as your stories! Congrats!

I think about that a lot!

Not quite a satanic following, 1111 to go.

I can't recall when I passed my 555th follower - some time in the last year I think. Like my stories, EB World moves slower than yours - but I did pass my tenth year on Lit sometime back in May, but forgot to mention it.

I reached the 4000 followers milestone!

Following me is a real show of optimism, considering I’ve only written 9 stories in 10 years and none since 2022.

Maybe their optimism will inspire me to write something new.

On the plus side you can claim quality over quantity. You have a couple of big hits in there.

A very good day. Today I hit 900k views and 700 followers. And since I haven't yet been published for 700 days, I find it very satisfying.

 

[MillieDynamite]

Your doing much better than me, or is it I?

Strictly speaking, it's "I". "You are doing much better than I am."

But of all the strict mistresses here on Lit, Grammar is probably the most forgiving.

I have a big smile on my face right now. Many thanks to @Maturedgent who just became follower 701 and favorited 24 of my 32 stories.

My 2022 Summer Lovin' contest story, Drive In Double Feature hit a high score of 4.50 today, one day short of four years after it was published.

That makes my record 75 submissions, 75 HOT ratings.

Uh-oh.

Now you've done it...

She never said they were contiguous years.

That's very impressive! Now you've got to challenge your streak by taking on a 750 word story where the wife cheats and happily gets away with it.

 

[Fatdog25]

Yesterday brought my 750,000 view and 750th follower.

That's wild.

 

[MelissaBaby]

That's an old Stephen Wright joke:

"I went to the 24 Hour store and it was closed. I came back the next day and asked the owner why you were closed, I thought you were open 24 hours. He said, "Not in a row."

Nah, picking your fights is the key to victory.

You're very wise.

It ain't 150, but it's close, very close.

I just had a story tick over the 200,000 view count for the first time! I am unreasonably smug about this...

Backyard MILF Ch. 04 is a finale of a short series and despite the tendency for series readership to drop off after the first chapter, it has many tens of thousands more views that even the first. I guess it is a stand-alone perfect storm of tags: MILF, Exhibitionism, Peeping, and FMF...

That’s when you know you’ve written something really good—or at least something that truly resonates with your readers. I’ve had a couple of late series chapters that have done the same—it’s rewarding.
