It's about loss, estrangement, and the hope of reconciliation. A precocious and slightly annoying college-age daughter tries to push her separated parents back together using trickery, music, bad weather, and her knowledge of 18th century philosophy😅

No rhyme or reason to it, that I've seen. Many stories are still getting approved and published within 48 hours or less. I haven't submitted a new story in a couple of months, but I'm getting close to finishing a new one, so we'll see what happens... 🤷‍♀️

I personally have no complaints, I've been blessed with wonderful story comments, my ratings have been good, I've talked to and collaborated with amazing writers! I want Lit to last forever, it's a bastion of un-enshittified creative community!

Some authors are seeing loooonnngg delays with the publishing queue, weeks and weeks for some. I'm seeing hints that the site's sole admin/owner isn't as active or engaged as they used to be. Transparent communication was never their strong suit, but I'm worried that it's getting worse 😐

I want that to be true, I hope that it is! But there are other signs of platform decline besides just the publishing queue problems, and I'm worried about a cascade of authors fleeing.

I'm not planning on going anywhere! I just think that maybe I should be publishing in more than one place.

Ao3 seems like total anarchy to me, my brain can't even parse what I'm looking at any time I go there and try to find stories to read.

Are there other options I should be looking at, or am I missing something with these other sites?

I've tentatively toyed with @gettheoreads.bsky.social, slick looking, but absolutely zero reader engagement of any kind.

I like a lot of what Wattpad has going on in terms of interface, but I don't think I understand what reader expectations are there...

It's a very silly episode, but Deanna Troi doing the cowboy thing in THOSE PANTS is maybe the hottest she's ever been 🥵

Meanwhile Klingons just have three kinds of ship, Small Medium and Large, and they update the designs maybe once every sixty years.

My headcanon is that Starfleet Shipyards is a dumping ground for all of the Federation's most neurodivergent engineers, and they let them build whatever crazy thing they want because one in a hundred designs ends up being incredibly useful.

I was thinking about it, maybe a supernatural take on a Locked Room Mystery, but it hasn't crystalized for me yet... After a positive response to my Dandelion Greene story, I think my next big one will be another Dandelion story for the Halloween contest!

I am so scared and excited, fearoused 🤣

Out of curiosity I made an account and submitted one of my shorter stories just to see what would happen...

I don't much like how AI-integrated it is, and there was an opt-out button I had to click to prevent it from adding my story to its LLM's training dataset. We'll see what happens, though!

Ooh this looks like an interesting platform... when did you publish your story and what kind of engagement has it gotten so far??
August 17, 2025 at 8:25 PM
Oh wow, thank you! I'm glad you liked it🥰
August 17, 2025 at 2:34 AM
And I can't wait to see what you mean by pushing your creative boundaries, I would LOVE to see your take on something strange or magical or otherworldly 🤩
