My Winter Holiday story, “Mom’s Stocking Stuffer” is live at Lit after a brief hiccup. Big thanks to Laurel for getting it out at midnight to make up for the erroneous rejection.
Again, a reminder that this is a Mom/Son taboo story, if that’s creepy, then you may want to give it a miss.

If you like this sort of story, I hope you’ll give me a read and a vote!
Come home to find two wonderful surprises today. My contest story as Les earned me my first erroneous age rejection. Resubmitted with an eyeroll, hoping it might come out at midnight by some stroke of luck. If it doesn’t make it out until 6 am or later… Ugh…
On top of that, my latest over at SOL is sputtering, which has become a trend. The same story is performing like gangbusters at Lit.
To be honest, pushing the submit button at SOL is beginning to feel like tossing words into the void. If the trend continues, I’m leaning more and more toward not wasting the effort. The numbers have been steadily descending for a while, and the feedback is almost non-existant, even when a story does reasonably well.
We’ll see how Stocking Stuffer does there after it’s had over the weekend at Lit. If a hotbutton fetish like that tanks… One more nail in the coffin.
That’s assuming it does as well as I’m expecting at Lit.
Even if I decide to close up shop at SOL, I’ll finish SOTM there. Other new stories may not get posted, though. That includes new stories in series like Magic of the Wood, since they’re all self-contained. Just thought I’d put out a heads up.
Off tomorrow. The Thanksgiving rush seems to be tapering off, so I’m hoping for a lighter week next week after my three day weekend. Maybe I’ll be back in a mental state capable of writing again. This has just been a bad week.
I’m going to vegetate for a little while, see if the young one will wind down, and maybe give a shot at writing, since this was a much slower day, and I already know I can get some sleep during the day tomorrow. Less pressure to force myself to go to bed.
Working on the next scene of SOTM. Just trying to figure out where I want to start it.
I had a couple of ideas in my third name that demanded writing for the Holiday Contest, so they took up a little time. One of them is done, and the other probably won’t take long. I’m paused on the second for the time being while I work on SOTM, because I’m not in the right frame of mind to write sex, which is what comprises the bulk of my 3rd name stories.
My Holiday story as Les should be coming out on Thursday. Naturally I’ll appreciate your read and vote, but don’t forget that it’s a taboo story!
Putting together the next coding step for the website in my head as well. For now, I have enough creative juices flowing to keep me writing, so I’m not going to mess with the website until I hit a bit of a slow point. Switching gears before I bog down too much helps keep me on an even keel and gets me back to writing more quickly. The next step is the sidebar, which is critical to making the next set of content additions reasonably navigable.
I went back this morning and did some tweaking and backspacing on Ch. 18, and now I’m moving forward.
Something I was more or less going to move past without much narrative has taken on a life of its own as I moved into new territory. It provides all sorts of opportunity for touches of humor, and something even more interesting. It will also be a nice contrast to what’s going to happen later in the chapter, as well. I’ll be getting back to that as soon as I finish this post.
I’m planning to submit my Winter Contest entry with the intention for it to post on the Thursday following Thanksgiving. Again, it’s an incest story, to warn you to avoid it if that creeps you out.
Truth to tell, it creeps me out too *laugh* I only write these as challenges, and usually write them with some other taboo in mind, going back to find/replace and tweak to turn it into the final form. Trying to write them straight makes my skin crawl *laugh*
There will be more of what’s common to my writing as Les coming, but sometimes, I just feel like writing a one off. It’s called “Mom’s Stocking Stuffer”
Now, back to Danica and Marlena preparing for a very interesting new illusion, utilizing the gift given to her early in SOTM.
I didn’t make it to that mark I was aiming for :p
The young one went on a tear for a few days, and other things came up. Looking to get some more writing done tomorrow after getting my heater in the car looked at in the morning.
I also decided to review the stories in Lit’s Winter contest, so that takes up some time each night. Again, while it puts a delay on my writing, things like this and editing for other authors builds relationships that I’ve found highly valuable. When I need someone to read something, or give me an honest opinion, I have more to work with when I’ve already provided same. In the end, that improves what finally comes out on my submissions page.
I had an idea as Les Lumens that jumps into a highly popular sub genre on Lit, which I’m writing for the contest. Truth to tell, it’s almost as much to stick to someone there as it is for me. I just can’t help slapping down a braggart sometimes *laugh* I’m nearly done with it now, and I’ll probably finish it tomorrow, so it won’t be draining any writing time for long.
It’s going to be a mother/son story, so if that creeps you out there will be ample warning. This one may not even go up at SOL. It all depends.
I won’t be working a full five days until the beginning of next year. I have at least one day per week scheduled off from now to after New Years, and I plan on taking a week of vacation on the second week of January. So I’m going to have a lot more time to catch up on sleep and — hopefully — get writing done while the house is quiet.
I also plan to finally upgrade the website software during one of those long weekends, opening the door to programming everything to add more content. I’m actually planning on Thanksgiving weekend, when I expect any problems that crop up will cause the least irritation to visitors.
I already posted a mini preview of the next chapter of SOTM on the comments from the previous chapter, and I’ll probably post a longer one on the forum soon. So, keep your eyes peeled if you want a sneak peek before I finish the chapter.
