Reject Reality Posted December 25, 2017 Report Share Posted December 25, 2017 I've got two stories on the verge of reaching "famous" status at Lushstories. Go give them a read and help push them over the top! https://www.lushstories.com/stories/milf/recycled.aspx https://www.lushstories.com/stories/group-sex/double-dip.aspx EDIT: LOL as soon as I post this, Lush goes down. D'OH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reject Reality Posted December 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Double Dip and Recycled both crossed the 30k mark to become famous stories at Lushstories. If you want to help the next couple down the line, feel free. They’re Merry Ex-Mas and Labor Day.https://www.lushstories.com/stories/taboo/labor-day.aspxhttps://www.lushstories.com/stories/milf/merry-exmas.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reject Reality Posted July 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 Labor Day is getting real close, and Merry Ex-Mas isn't that far behind. Labor Day is only a couple hundred views away. The next one in line, which is Send In the Clone, isn't very far behind Merry Ex-Mas. It already has a featured spot on Lush because it's a second place contest win, and thus an editor's pick, plus I keep it on the top of my list there for those reasons. Give them a read to boost them a little closer, if you're of a mind. Links to the two closest contenders are in the post above. Should be up to 9 famous stories real soon, and 11 not long after.

Reject Reality Posted July 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 I stand corrected. Just did a thorough check of my stories at Lush, and there's a story that's a shade closer than Send in the Clone. Here's the list of every story that's currently between 20k and 30k views. Those are the only ones I think are worthwhile to try and promote toward Famous status. Labor Day 29794Merry Ex-Mas 28840Taste of Sherry 28395Send in the Clone 28356One Incredible Costume 27546Mom's Second Chance 26051Her Cut to the Chase 24501Milf Allie 23737Three Alarm 23663Fixed Wright Up 23335Good Will 23251Mom's Stocking Stuffer 22636Kitty in the Cream 22178Hard Times 21692Jerk 20581Souvenir 20505Summer's Heat 20472Quite Neighborly 20212 So, Taste of Sherry is just a tiny bit closer. Because of the promoted status of Send in the Clone, it could still beat Sherry there. I guess I'm closing in on 12 famous stories instead of 11, with a couple more not too far behind that. Anything lower than 27k views is a year plus with Lush's current traffic, I'm guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reject Reality Posted July 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 Labor Day has crossed the threshold. As predicted, Send in the Clone passed Sherry because it's at the top of my story list on Lush. Thought I'd update the original list with current numbers. Including a story that's about to break into this list. Merry Ex-Mas 28840 | 28970Taste of Sherry 28395 | 28587Send in the Clone 28356 | 28594One Incredible Costume 27546 | 27714Mom's Second Chance 26051 | 27214Her Cut to the Chase 24501 | 24866Milf Allie 23737 | 23873Three Alarm 23663 | 23757Fixed Wright Up 23335 | 23904Good Will 23251 | 23343Mom's Stocking Stuffer 22636 | 24778Kitty in the Cream 22178 | 22249Hard Times 21692 | 21789Jerk 20581 | 20637Souvenir 20505 | 20642Summer's Heat 20472 | 20575Quite Neighborly 20212 | 21114Her Own Skin ???? | 19565 So, the new order is:01 Merry Ex-Mas 28840 | 28970 (+0) (+130) = 32 Per = 8 Mos. = Mar. 201902 Send in the Clone 28356 | 28594 (+1) (+238) = 59 Per = 6 Mos. = Jan. 201903 Taste of Sherry 28395 | 28587 (-1) (+192) = 48 Per = 7 Mos. = Feb. 201904 One Incredible Costume 27546 | 27714 (+0) (+168) = 42 Per = 13.5 Mos. = Oct. 201905 Mom's Second Chance 26051 | 27214 (+0) (+1163) = 290 Per = 2.5 Mos. = Oct. 201806 Her Cut to the Chase 24501 | 24866 (+0)(+365) = 91 Per = 14 Mos. = Oct. 201907 Mom's Stocking Stuffer 22636 | 24778 (+4) (+2142) = 535 Per = 2.5 Mos. = Oct. 201808 Fixed Wright Up 23335 | 23904 (+1) (+569) = 142 Per = 11 Mos. = July 201909 Milf Allie 23737 | 23873 (-2) (+136) = 34 Per = 45 Mos. = 202210 Three Alarm 23663 | 23757 (-2) (+94) = 23 Per = 68 Mos. = 202411 Good Will 23251 | 23343 (-1) (+92) = 23 Per = 72 mos. = 202412 Kitty in the Cream 22178 | 22249 (+0) (+71) = 18 Per = 108 Mos. = 202713 Hard Times 21692 | 21789 (+0) (+97) = 24 Per = 86 Mos. = 202514 Quite Neighborly 20212 | 21114 (+3) (+902) = 225 Per = 10 Mos. = Jun. 201915 Souvenir 20505 | 20642 (+0) (+57) = 14 Per = 167 Mos. = 203216 Jerk 20581 | 20637 (-2) (+56) = 14 Per = 167 Mos. = 203217 Summer's Heat 20472 | 20575 (+0) (+103) = 25 Per = 94 Mos. = 202618 Her Own Skin ???? | 19565 (+0) (-) The incest stories are climbing more quickly than I realized, and are likely to pass everything above them soon. It's obvious that 20k isn't realistic, either. Perhaps some stories might be. Quite Neighborly is climbing at a surprisingly steady clip. Her Own Skin, though brand new, is gaining views at a surprising rate. A more viable list to bother promoting ( once above 28k ) is: 01 Merry Ex-Mas 28840 | 28970 (+0) (+130) = 32 Per = 8 Mos. = Mar. 201902 Send in the Clone 28356 | 28594 (+1) (+238) = 59 Per = 6 Mos. = Jan. 201903 Taste of Sherry 28395 | 28587 (-1) (+192) = 48 Per = 7 Mos. = Feb. 201904 One Incredible Costume 27546 | 27714 (+0) (+168) = 42 Per = 13.5 Mos. = Oct. 201905 Mom's Second Chance 26051 | 27214 (+0) (+1163) = 290 Per = 2.5 Mos. = Oct. 201806 Her Cut to the Chase 24501 | 24866 (+0)(+365) = 91 Per = 14 Mos. = Oct. 201907 Mom's Stocking Stuffer 22636 | 24778 (+4) (+2142) = 535 Per = 2.5 Mos. = Oct. 201808 Fixed Wright Up 23335 | 23904 (+1) (+569) = 142 Per = 11 Mos. = July 201914 Quite Neighborly 20212 | 21114 (+3) (+902) = 225 Per = 10 Mos. = Jun. 201918 Her Own Skin ???? | 19565 (+0) (-) We'll see how things look in another month or so. For now, those are the only stories that can realistically make it to 30k in a year and a half. That would put me at 19 Famous stories at that point. Nude Holly Day was at 68k in November of 2017. It's currently at 75k. So, at about 875 views per month, it could be legendary in Dec. 2020. A couple of other stories, which are kinda recent, are over 50k. For later checks, here's all three of those. Nude Holly Day 75109Dip In The Lake 57645A Fine Substitute 50397 We'll see how things look with those in a while.

Not only this list, but those that are already famous/legendary are dominated by that particular genre. We'll see if "Her Own Skin" maintains the current momentum, since it's so new. Now, on to Legendary, only using the last month's new views, rather than the longer average I have for Holly: Nude Holly Day 75109 | 76069 = 960/m = Sept. 2020Dip In The Lake 57645 | 58010 = 365/m = Apr. 2028A Fine Substitute 50397 | 51014 = 617/m = Apr. 2025 That does fly in the face of what my famous stories say. The two legendary potential stories ( though far in the future ) are actually aggressive MILF tales. We'll give it another look in a month, and see if Her Own Skin has actually maintained its pace and made it to famous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reject Reality Posted October 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 "Mom's Second Chance" made it over the threshold recently, my #10 famous story. "Her Own Skin" and "Mom's Stocking Stuffer" will almost certainly pass the threshold in the next month, bringing me up to 12. I've been struggling with writer's block. Specifically, work has been creeping below my not-particularly-high bar of plausibility. I hit that point, and the story loses me. Some have gone back to formula. Others have been backspace significantly. I've also been playing RPGs, which is my go-to for recharging my batteries. 100% achievements on FF4: The After Years and FF6. Picked up FF5 as well ( the one in the series from 1-6 that I've replayed the least ) but I'm not binging on it the way I did the first two. I caught the fever from After Years, because it was a game I had never played, but with all the classic characters and gameplay of a classic I adore. That finally waned in the slog to get the achievement for all of Gau's rages. LOL As always, after an RPG reboot, I'll probably hit fantasy work when I kick back into gear. "Gates of Enchantment" has been occupying my muse space recently, working out a logic problem that had brought me up short. I simply need to change the location of a scene, and that solves that problem. High probability that "Tangled Coils" will get started as well.

Reject Reality Posted November 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 "Her Own Skin" has broken through as my #11 Famous Story at Lush. In a couple of weeks, "Mom's Stocking Stuffer" should make the jump as well. I actually ended up working on a short to fill the bisexual category at Lush. Finally figured out an angle that I liked on a many times scrapped and restarted story. At the moment, it's the most likely next release.

Reject Reality Posted December 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Stocking Stuffer made it as #12. Looks like Sherry might actually be 13. It accelerated significantly during the recent flurry of releases at Lush. Speaking of Lush, I completed 80% of the categories to earn my prolific writer badge. Not many more categories to earn Omnium, which is for writing in all story categories. I'm also on the verge of a silly milestone I've had for some time. I have a title starting with every letter on Lush except Y. Of course, that includes Les and Dark stories, but most of the coverage actually comes from RR. When I cover that one ( already a story planned ) it will meet my goal of having a title with every letter across my whole catalog, as well as on Lush. The full goal is a title with every letter of the alphabet, in every pen name, on every site. Dark has the most ground to cover there, followed by Les. RR is only off by a maximum of three letters on Lit, and two on SOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reject Reality Posted January 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 Sherry is only about 70 views away from reaching Famous on Lush. At the current clip, that could be less than a week. I've officially covered every letter as a title start across all of my pen names with the release of "Yule Snow". That story also completes the goal on Lush. It dropped my remaining letters on Lit down to 2, keeping it even with SOL. Added a new category on both Lit and Lush with "To the Rescue" which is doing surprisingly well, considering it was a total experiment. I'll be breaking another new category soon with "Weight of It", which is a GM story. Again, an experiment. We'll see what happens with the larger GM readership. Mulling over an exclusive SOL story to make up for all the stuff that hasn't posted there. Really short stories or anthologies of same just don't seem to fit the standard there to me. I think an exclusive story should cover the loss of other work nicely. Ideally, it should be something that couldn't really post on the other sites, or which wouldn't do particularly well there. Hitting the teen angle would eliminate Lit as a possibility. If it was non-con, that would eliminate Lush, where the sixteen would fly, but I don't really feel like writing that. So, I'm thinking about a longer story with a younger protagonist for the SOL exclusive. Anything over 10k words suffers horribly at Lush, while longer stories do even better at SOL. Seems a perfect fit. Just need to figure out who the characters are, and what the story is about LOL Had a uniform story well underway, but it petered out on me. I was in the sex scene, and I just wasn't feeling it. I think I'll eventually keep the opening, but move the sex scene to the private charter plane of the two pilots. That should provide some interesting logistics to keep me engaged. In the hanger, not mile high. The setup eliminates the possibility of actually taking the plane up. Plus, I want to do a threesome DP story, and that's hard to do when somebody has to fly the plane. Still have Jessica's Rabbit Hole on my mind. Mulling over some possible Valentine's stories for the contest at Lit as well. Just thought I'd rattle off a few things. Go give Sherry a read at Lush to help push it over the top, letting me celebrate my #13 famous story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reject Reality Posted May 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Since that last update, I've made it up to 16 Famous stories on Lush. The next one in line is "Quite Neighborly" and will probably hit somewhere around June/July/August. Perhaps a little faster if I start putting out new stories again. Nude Holly Day is steadily creeping toward Legendary as well. A good distance behind it, but progressing as well, is Dip in the Lake. A couple of others are even farther back, but a good distance over 30k. Neighborly is the only one likely to cross the line this year, so I'll leave a link for it here: https://www.lushstories.com/stories/swingers/quite-neighborly.aspx The others won't start hitting until 2020, barring a dramatic change in their view advancement.
