Turkey and Trolls and Laresa — oh my!

Happy Turkey Day!

To whoever is consistantly one-bombing every single story I post the moment it hits the toplists, you’re wasting your effort.  The feedback denies your trollish little votes, and they’ll just eventually get swept anyway.  I’m sure you’ve already noticed that when you’ve had to rebomb the same stories over and over.  You’re painfully obvious, and it requires absolutely no effort on my part to get your votes swept, they do it as part of the regular site maintainence.  So, just keep on wasting your time to check the toplists for my stuff each and every day.  You’re the only one expending any effort, and it all goes to waste =)  I still pick up new readers every time I post a story, and they keep coming back for more.  As time goes on, you’ll have to work hard and harder to keep my scores beat down, only to see them go right back up from new votes and sweeps shortly thereafter.  You have fun with that now, my anonymous little personal troll.  Thanks for the compliment, by the way, the fact that you’re scared of my scores speaks volumes about the quality of my work ^_^

I’m knuckling down on the new Laresa right now, the Chrono Trigger soundtrack providing some much needed inspiration to my muse to wake up.  I hope to finish it by this evening.

SOL — Up for Spoofing?

If you haven’t checked out the latest LST3K, go do it!  (Linked in previous update)

I’m working on the next one now, and you probably noticed some changes to the website if you’ve been here before.

I’m trying to get a series like this started at Storiesonline, so feel free to yell at me if you’re from there and interested in ripping or donating a story!

I’d really like a holiday themed story to spoof.  Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Year, snow, Santa… you get the picture.  I’d like to enter one in the winter contest at Lit, if I can get a good story and finish it in time.

Final Ari Live at Lit

Take Me Away Ch. 04, the final chapter, is out at Lit.  Go read and vote!

You probably see a few changes to the website here and there 😉

I’ve added cover images to several stories on my short stories and my work pages, the final chapter of Arilee is posted on the website, and I did a few other updates and revisions.

I haven’t slept much the last few days, so the new Laresa is moving slowly, and that’s the only thing moving at all at the moment.

I opened up the website for my alternate pen name, Leslumens as well.

I’ll try to get back in gear tonight, but for right now, I’m taking a break.  I just spent hours updating the website one file at a time through a web interface since I still can’t FTP in =P

Les Lumens Website Launch

Finally got the website online =)

Not much here, but you can find the links to all my other work in Fantasy and Humor by taking a look around here.  I’ll add more to this website as I write new stories under this pen name.

I’m pleased and overwhealmed by the response to “Finding Karen”, and I hope my future work will be just as pleasing to the readers out there.  Thanks for all the wonderful feedback emails, everyone!

Final Ari live at SOL and queued at Lit

The final chapter of Arilee is out at Storiesonline, and in the queue at Lit.  I’ll post it up here soon.

I’ll be adding some cover images to several stories soon, on both the short stories page and on the “my work” page.

The reason I’m waiting to do several updates on the website is because I can’t FTP in.  I can update through my account file manager, but it’s a pain in the ass.  I’ll complete the update once they get that worked out.

I’m working on the new Laresa now.  More later
