Way way back in the dark ages before adultfanfiction alienated everyone (and, in a move I would later thank them for, deleted all my stuff) I remember getting a comment that said something like,

"Stop writing short stories on this site and go write a novel. I don't have time for this."

Lemme tell ya, that was the most devastating thing I'd ever been told. I still laugh about it sometimes.

Well, that was a let down. Im here in the middle of you story waiting for that comment to give you the strength to write your NYT best seller.

I have some very infuriating views that mean I'll never publish. But thank you.
