I'm probably like a lot of authors here in that sometimes I get frustrated with my pace of writing and publication. I'm undisciplined and my writing happens in bursts of creativity followed by slow periods. It can be frustrating and discouraging at times.
But then I think back on when I started publishing stories in December 2016, and I had no idea what to expect, because I had no experience as an adult at writing fiction, and if you'd told me then that I would publish 39 stories between then and now I probably would have said, "You've got to be kidding." I know there are plenty of others here who've been far more prolific, but to me, that's a startlingly large number.
When I started writing I had no plan or expectation other than that I wanted to try my hand at writing a story or two like the ones I'd enjoyed reading at Literotica for over ten years. And then I started and things took off and it's been interesting and rewarding to see the creative process play out.
When you started, did you have expectations about what you wanted to achieve at Literotica? What were they, and have you met them? Or have things gone in a completely different direction from what you expected?
