Profile Thoughts


Stephen Wolff:

I'm a bit overrun with professional non-creative writing at the moment, so I've had no time for new posts or reviews on here! I'll mend my ways soon!

Stephen Wolff:

I really must put up another poem but I can only write prose at the moment!

Stephen Wolff:

Fanstory made my "Why I am a chess player essay" a featured story which I'm pleased about. Fame and riches are assured!

    mrskristinball: Congratulations! Keep on Believing in yourself, and just a little WooHoo!

    Celtic~Soul: I take it by featured story, you mean the listing on the front page, bottom half. It's the reviewers who put you there, not the site. If you get a certain number (or more) of 5-star reviews (and maybe a six or two) in a short period, you are rewarded with your post appearing on the front page. A work appears there for a while and then others rise to take its place. There is change-over periodically in that section--all based on how readers rate new posts. It is cool, though, to realize that your writing is being well-received by your peers!

    DIS-illusioned: I too am 'a chess player essay'.
    Oh, the glories of funny-money! I've bought three islands with it, you know.

Stephen Wolff:

"Lost Horizons" gained that "All Time Best" status I was hankering after! First one for me. Thanks to all who read it and wrote reviews.

Stephen Wolff:

Only three more reviews needed for "Lost Horizons". Come on....come on...

August 21, 2013 at 5:29PM
    Selina Stambi: Okay, okay!! Done! .... good luck with the remaining two! :) :)

Stephen Wolff:

I promote my poem "Labyrinth" and I'm rewarded with only two more reviews and about 6 further readers. Promotions used to be more fruitful than that! Why? Please do read and review if you have the time!

Stephen Wolff:

My new profile picture in my new stand-up guise as Sir Arthur Patterson, the clubbable Tory grandee.

July 29, 2013 at 7:46PM
    Stephen Wolff: Erm.... no it isn't! maybe it'll appear eventually!
    July 29, 2013 at 7:48PM
    Sally Carter: Yup, it's appeared. You're not the brother of Les Patterson, are you??

Stephen Wolff:

Any ideas?

    shelley kaye: yuuup!


    unfortunately they usually get lost somewhere between my brain and the pen :-P

Stephen Wolff:

I promoted the wrong bloody piece! I'd be really interested to know what people make of "Appreciation" which is the second down in my portfolio. A picture of the man himself is now included.

Stephen Wolff:

Constructive criticism welcomed and I won't take offense at anything negative! Puzzles me when people do on here: you need to deal with it if you want to be any kind of writer! My companion in the new picture is my good friend Scipio by the way:not to be messed with as you can see!

Stephen Wolff:

Anyone seen my poetic muse?

March 3, 2013 at 10:03AM
    Sally Carter: Yeah, think she eloped with mine...
    March 3, 2013 at 11:53AM
    Sarkems: Menage a trois avec mine...
    March 3, 2013 at 12:06PM
    Sally Carter: Now there's a topic for a poem! A ménage a trois muses.... Anyone up for trying it?
    March 3, 2013 at 1:09PM
    Sarkems: Sally, I 'll have you know, I'm not THAT sort of author, lol
    March 3, 2013 at 2:00PM

Stephen Wolff:

Anyone fancy being one of my fans? I don't seem to have many; can't imagine why!

December 14, 2012 at 12:03PM
    William Walz: Twenty member dollars and a pretty please with sugar on it might do the trick.
    December 14, 2012 at 12:29PM
    Stephen Wolff: Bollox to you sir! ;-)
    December 15, 2012 at 6:38AM
    Stephen Wolff: And I would just like to make it clear that no money changed hands!
    December 15, 2012 at 11:37AM
    Stephen Wolff: Some new work up and ready to be read and criticized. Be my guest!

Stephen Wolff:

Just published a short narrative. Very happy to hear what you think!

November 21, 2012 at 7:51AM
    DIS-illusioned: Think I'll have three eggs this morning with my toast--instead of my usual two ... You still very happy to hear this? :-p
    I'll be checking out that short narrative very soon. :)
    November 21, 2012 at 9:23AM
    DIS-illusioned: Don't wanna give anything away, but that Martin is sure one 'character', ain't he? :)

Stephen Wolff:

I'm sharing a few short pieces at the moment under the poetry heading though its mostly just verse. I'm working on a few bits of prose and a novel plus some non-fiction all of which I may get around to sharing. Thanks for the mostly positive responses to what I've shared so far and even more thanks for the suggestions some of which I have used to improve my work.
