What is the best story you have read that was published in 2025 by someone who frequents the Authors’ Hangout?

OMG here it is! It's the thread I've been wishing to see! I've wanted a thread where we gush all over each other. We have so many where we debate or where people tear others down. I wanted one where we could gush all over each other. I mean, this one is over stories, it's true, and I was thinking of the people themselves, but still. It's what I've been craving.

In the spirit of the thread, I nominate @Erozetta 's Collars and Cravings because, damn.
Thank you! Also, brave of you to endure faux second person, lol.

I quite liked your take on "The Raven " as well. (Quoth) the Maiden, "I'm no Whore." It had me laughing, sad, excited, curious and more as I read. It kept the right tempo, was hot as hell, and I'm sad poems aren't included in the contests. It seems unfair to me. One would think there could be room for story contests and a category for "other" such as audio and poems (and art before it was essentially banned from the site.).

And thank you for your comment on the story. I actually have it recorded as an audio but never released it because I don't have a guy to do the male side right now and my attempt at a dominant male voice is... Kinda pathetic actually.

I would have the same problem with a dominant male voice probably, though audio filters might help if only I knew how to use them.

I tried a filter and messing with pitch, tone, speed, etc., and I sounded like an effeminate warthog. (Or what I'd picture an effeminate warthog would sound like if it could speak English.) It was just so fucking bad, lol.

Yea, and that warthog would decibel violate lit rules...
