I posted my first submission to Stories Online in October 2020. I started Two Perspectives without knowing whether or not I would finish it, or if a half-written manuscript would languish on my hard drive. It turns out that I would finish it, and then go on to write 29 additional stories. Thirteen of which are part of my Fifty Something Teenager (FST) series. I started the FST series without a grand plan, but a vague notion of a series of interconnected tales with the same characters. Now, this series is easily the most popular of my stories.
In total, all of my stories account for 500,000+ words, 225 chapters, written on 1,300+ pages. While these numbers pale in comparison to many of the very prolific authors on the site, I am happy with them given that I wasn't sure if the first story would have even been completed over three years ago.
This short post is both a pat-on-the-back to myself, but more importantly, a huge, heart-felt, Thank You to everyone who has read, rated, and sent email on the two-and-half dozen tales that are now part of my collection.
Thanks again and happy reading!
