The Official Authors' Hangout Summer Lovin' 2025 Contest Support Thread

Mine was weird. Got quite a few views, decent rating but far fewer comments than I expected. Nowhere near the view or vote count as some of those above though, those are fantastic numbers.

My impression is that views are becoming much more patchy, even in the honeypot categories. I think this is a product of so many stories being published. The increase in story volume appears to be comfortably exceeding the increase in available eyeballs.

It’s hard not to draw the conclusion that the barriers to creative writing have been dramatically lowered.

Yeah that sounds feasible.

Which is exactly why you immediately disable the voting when you win.

If you disable voting does the score disappear? Does the H disappear? You’ve got a couple of stories with a W, but no score or H.

If you turn voting on again later does your present score come back?

Thanks.

All those Disney porn jokes make me a little self-conscious that the main characters in my ongoing serial story are Disney Adults.

Might have to find a way to stick a Goofy sex joke in an upcoming installment.

"Hot dog, hot dog, hot digitty dog!"1
Or have Goofy make that big, yodelly scream when he comes: "Wah-hoo-hoo-hooo..."

I think I might have to reference a mystery mousketool.

Also, a lot of stories are tagged by 'Summer Lovin (year)' rather than 'Summer Lovin' - to catch those, use this:
https://tags.literotica.com/summer lovin 2025/?sort_by=rating

and change the '2025' to whatever year is of interest.
