Right! Wait? What? LOL....
I know you can join without paying...
So you read and can't review...
And the point is?
I've, on occasion availed myself of a number of days "free trial" on other sites--- (Curiosity killed the writer...)
Fun to wander around and see the layout and read the rules...
but reading the work and not being able to comment feels like premature non-evaluation---(a not very good play on words which the little blue pill won't help)
ANYWAY. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! You're holding the number 1 position...so whatever you're doing---keep on doing it!

Of course, the hook of free memberhip is that you'll want to be able to comment and write your own stuff.
Speaking of which--you should DEFINITELY be posting your brilliant commentary--flash form or longer!

What a nice thing to say! I do believe you just made my day my friend!--Karenina
Comment from Father Flaps
What a sly dog you are, Liz! That made me laugh,
"...now there are more people than ever not reading my work. I thank you for not being among them." ... that's so cute. You make a point in a comical way.
Well, Congratulations on your big anniversary of joining Fanstory. (You call it "StoryLand". )
I didn't even realize you could tag friends to join like that. They can read a post, but they can't post themselves or review. It's a great idea.
Here's another idea that I've had... wouldn't it be great if King Tom would expand the Fanstory base? If a member wanted a single book of his/her own stories and/or poems, Tom could make it for ... say, $60 -$100... and mail it to you. You would have the ability to design a cover for this lone hard-covered book, choose your poems and/or stories, even insert artwork of your own (if you have it). It would be a unique addition for our writing community, and a way to save your very best poems in a hard-covered book.
Hugs,
Kimbob

Great idea! Run it by the King; alas, he'll likely put it on the (never to come true) "wish list."
P.S. I am pleased to get your review after the promotion expired- -#15 is the magic number--you've earned me a virtual blue ribbon!

Comment from Lucy de Welles
Ain't that the truth! Not a one! Would we do that? Not a chance. If my sister, daughter, cousin, twice removed, friend, lover (still waiting), etc etc was writing, wouldn't I read it??? I actually know people who don't own even one book. How is that possible? Better stop now, before ranting begins.
Cheers!

Oh, horse pucky. The next FLASH I see will probably be a sword plunge about "loyalty."
But, I'll take it at face value, like always.
Just spreading the luv ....
Besides, if loyalty comes to you, then basic law of attraction has brought it. Who and what you are always comes back to you. So, don't forget to allow yourself to be touched by your own self.
It is pretty evident to me, that you are very loyal to your friends.
That's one thing I really like about you, Liz!
Hope your Sunday is going well.
Lucy

Thank you Lucy! I needed that.
Comment from judiverse
This is fun. I liked the twist at the end about having more people not reading your work and a thanks to those who do. Happy FS anniversary. I hadn't thought about people being about to join FanStory and read people's work. I really didn't know that was an option. judi

Thanks for that. I find you easy and entertaining to read, whereas some of the poets bore me. judi

I don't care much for poetry! I am metaphorically-challenged and hopelessly literal-minded.
-
I think I'm the same way. Some of the fancy rhyme is too much for me. judi

So true, Liz. Your intentions were good though. They don't know what they are missing. Your work is unique in a great way! I always enjoy reading and reviewing it.
Respectfully, Jan

Happy Anniversary, Elizabeth. I am so pleased that you are here since I enjoy reading everything you write. I'm not sure what you mean about friends being able to join at no cost. I suppose you mean they can login and read your portfolio.

Congratulations on making it a year on fan story. It's a good place to compare your writing skills to other people. That's what I found useful about it.

ME???
I just support writers that support me. When I say I will support someone's writing, I review and comment. I write every day but I don't post a lot here.
Comment from Judy Lawless
Congratulations! And thanks for this information. Can friends without a paid membership just read, or can they review? I assume not, because that might create an unfair advantage. lol

Comment from Ric Myworld
I come here to hide, to get away from all those I know and try to avoid. Sorry, that sounds mean, but I wouldn't even want to spend the whole day in a bubble bath and a book. Thanks for sharing. Happy Anniversary!

I just like what you have to say and how you say it, my dear! Besides, I'm a rookie, even at my age, and I learn from you everyday. :-)
