There are lots of great ways to organize your thoughts, both on and off the computer. Here are a few that I've tried that have worked well for me: --Writing ideas down on scraps of paper or index cards so that I can lay them out later and move them around until I like the order they're in. --Using a smartphone app called Notebooks. I use it to write down ideas or pieces of dialogue or whatnot and then email them to myself so that, later, I can organize them on my computer. --Using a freeware program called Freemind. It's basically an outlining program that lets you type text into boxes, shuffle them around, put them in hierarchies, etc.

No, but I hope the readers were. No biggie. Balancing comedy, drama, and sex has been one of the great challenges of this story. I don't expect the mix to be perfect for everyone. But I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter. The last line was not intended as a reference to GRAVITY (although I have now seen it and thought it was really good)--just as a bit of comedy at poor Stacy's expense.

Thanks! I've started finding these sex scenes harder to write, because I've done enough stories with these same characters that I've become concerned about not just writing the same scene over and over again. So I'm glad if they're doing it for you.

Thanks!

Exactly.

Oh yes indeed.

Responses to reviews of my original story, "Firelight." (A cow visits a stud service to get bred and finds that the experience exceeds her expectations. (M/F, furry, big boobs, big cock, impregnation, Southern accents) Anthro, COMPLETE, M/F, Oneshot, Oral, Preg) Glad you liked it! I have no plans to continue this particular story, but I will definitely post more furry stories here.

I'm a little unclear on what your issue is. Is it that this chapter took me an unusually long time to write (I'd been going for about 1 a week, but this one took 10 days), or that the content of the chapter was not sufficiently gratifying? If it's the first issue, the main reason I got a bit slow with this chapter was that I kept writing bits that I realized were more appropriate for subsequent chapters. Hopefully, this means that the NEXT chapter will come sooner. If it's the second issue, well, Phineas DID get blown to completion in this chapter, so that's something. (I even got auto-chastised for not putting "oral" in the list of tags. I fixed that just now.) Anyhow, more excitement to come in the next chapter.

I knew a mom who actually forbade her kids from watching Spongebob for fear that it induces stupidity. I like Phineas and Ferb because the creators are from my generation and throw in a lot of in-jokes about the 80s (and other stuff that kids aren't likely to get).

What people here generally do is create a review response thread in the appropriate "Fan Fiction" forum (ie, whichever forum fits the category your story is in). You can then insert a link to your thread into the text of the story, or put it in a "review" of your own story.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you/get bent. Next chapter should go up at the end of the week.

BTW, you inspired me to post one of my furry stories here on AFF: "Firelight," about a cow who visits a stud service.

Thanks! I've been managing about a chapter a week so far; I expect the writing will continue at that pace.

I'm not sure I agree. Working with a story started by someone else frees you to write without having to start from scratch, giving you more time to practice your writing technique without having to worry about the basic premise of the story or introducing the characters. Isn't that half the reason people write fanfic--to use already-established characters and settings to tell new stories?

6000 hits and no reviews? Incredible. In what category is the fic posted? A few days ago, I posted an original story ("Firelight") in the Erotica > Het-Male/Female section that has garnered about 1000 hits and 8 ratings but no reviews. My other single-chapter stories (all fanfics) have gotten about 1 to 5 reviews per 1000 hits, so I'm not sure why it's so different for this original fic. With regard to ratings, people generally give my fanfics either 5s or nothing, whereas this original story has earned a couple of 1s (in addition to some 4s or 5s). That makes me even more curious to know what readers like or don't like about it.

Are any animal terms that are actually flattering to women? For men, being compared to a bull, an ox, or a horse is often a positive thing, but not so much for women. Gazelle, maybe? And while I realize that "cow" is generally considered an insult, I definitely favor women with characteristics that could be considered...um...bovine.

Well, that IS kind of the point of them. Besides, this is meant to be as much an adventure story as erotica. Plenty more danger, drama, and gettin' it on ahead.

And things have only just begun to go wrong! Glad you're enjoying it so far. As for character death...no comment. Thanks! When I decided to do a sequel, this seemed like the storyline that would most easily carry one.

"There's a New Seraph in Town" won the People's Choice Award in the AUTUMN HARVEST contest on Hentai Foundry! Big thanks to Gabriel, whose review of this story gave me a lot of confidence in it.

Thanks! Short and sweet was pretty much what I was aiming for. Well, that and fulfilling my pathetic fan-fantasy of those two finally getting together, for crying out loud. (Whenever they decide to end the series, I really hope Phineas wises up in the finale.)

Glad you liked it! I'm afraid this one is a one-shot, though.

Thanks! Yes, after "Danville, We Have a Problem" is complete, next up is the Candace-centric "Tri-Date Area" (that's the working title, anyway), in which Candace attempts to kindle a 3-way romance with Jeremy and Stacy. Nothing strange about that at all! I would certainly consider a Candace/Linda thing if I could think of a way to make it happen, but as I told another reader who wrote to me on that very subject, I would have to have a really plausible explanation for it. I'm good with that rating. And with Candace and Stacy getting it on. Thanks! I realized that because Candace got her new body from the Thing-I-Want-inator, the only way she could get her own body back would be not to want the new one anymore, so she eventually had to discover that it carried some major disadvantages.

I'm glad you like the way the new Phineas/Isabella dynamic is shaping up. I figured that, given that Phineas is utterly clueless about Isabella's attraction to him on the show, he'd probably be equally clueless about what to do in a relationship with her. Likewise, her frustration with his not noticing her romantically has translated into frustration with his total ignorance about dating, sex, and relationships. I had a feeling that someone would reference Gravity in reviewing this story. I haven't actually seen that movie (although I want to), so this story is not influenced by it at all.

Should reviews appear, I'll respond to them here. (Hey, that rhymes.)

Ouch! That's really rough. I've heard a couple of other stories like that, which is why I back up my "Fic" folder pretty regularly these days. Well, the twins HAD just showered, which might have helped some. In any case, thanks very much for reading and for the review.
