I'm going to respond as a reader. Me, I like plot and character development. I LOVE a slow burn in a story, for example. Thing is, with the stories I like which do this, and do this well, there is NOT an extreme emphasis on every little detail. The writer leaves some things to my imagination, which is perfect, as it ENGAGES me as a reader. You will find as you post, that depending upon the reader, you'll either be prompted to get to the naughty bits right away, or being told that you're doing a good job, and that yes, we'll certainly wait until the naughty bits fit with the plot! It's honestly a kind of pet peeve of mine as a reader, where I see a writer doing a damn good job, and then you have someone whining that they're not getting to the sex fast enough, because the damn site has "adult" in the domain name. I'd rather read a well written story with no naughty bits, than a piece of dreck that is nothing but that with bad spelling and bad grammar. PWP has its place, yes. Well written PWP is fun to read. But to disguise it as a plotted story, is an insult to anyone's intelligence.

Your friend is welcome here on or after her 18th birthday. As the site is hosted in the US, we have to go by age restrictions in THIS country, not other countries, regardless of where the user is.

What you're referring to is what most people consider "cross posting". For us, that term means that you post multiple copies of the same story to multiple archives on THIS site. What it means to most people though, is that it's posted at their site and elsewhere. We're glad to have ya, and if you want to post elsewhere as well, that's entirely up to you. We certainly won't tell you must post a story here, and only here.

Well, I read older fandoms, so the writers there have been around for a long, long time, and are certainly not in this age bracket which tends to delete if it's not a fanpoodle review. So, I know that when I do actually have time to read, and leave a well though out review, THEY like it. I've also noticed, as I said before, that the older writers (meaning IRL age) are much more likely to take the concrit and RUN with it. Use it as it was intended, as a help to improve his or her writing. For that matter, I've also noticed that one leaves actual concrit and the author is NOT an American (and a young one at that), the review is much more likely to be left, and the author will again tend to run with it.

The authors who actually accept concrit are those who've been around for a fair number of years. I've noticed the younger they are, the less likely they are to really LOOK at the concrit and take it for what it is, and LEAVE it for others to see.

you got a spoof and a link to rogue antivirus software. I just checked the file structure, there is NOTHING at all there that doesn't belong there.

yer poor mother.

Dean_Wax brought up an interesting point as well. The burst of activity isn't just to persuade your passenger to get on with it and come out, but because we all get a nesting urge the last couple weeks. Meaning there is a burst of activity DIRECTLY related to ensuring you've got all your ducks in a row, so to speak, for the arrival. I had 2 that went late (2 and 2 1/2 weeks, and yes, they were the large ones), and the other three were all early. I cannot begin to express how grateful I am that they were. Considering how big the overdue ones were, I shudder to think of how large the others would've been had they not been early. Considering that my middle girl was the earliest (she was 5 weeks early) and 8 pounds, 20 inches long at birth, she'd've been HUGE if I'd gone to term.

hahaha, the only one that was smallish was my first, but the firstborn is usually the smallest. My two largest were 24.5 and 23.5 inches long at birth. Consider that the average length is 19.5 inches, that's quite a bit more baby to have to push out.

At 2 1/2 weeks, you don't even know you're pregnant yet. That's the first thing. Secondly, if the woman's period is regular, she'll find out in short order by missing a period, and doing a test. If the woman has irregular cycles, she could go for a few MONTHS before thinking to test. The tenderness and breast swelling doesn't really start to happen until around 2 1/2 months. Most women don't even show until the 4th month, and depending on her personal physiology, she may not show until well in to the pregnancy. I've known women who didn't start to show until the 6th month. Pregnancy varies with each woman, depending upon her body type, inherited factors and a few other things besides. Not all women get morning sickness in the first trimester. For example, I didn't have anything remotely resembling morning sickness until around 7 months. That was actually caused by eating too much at one time, with the stomach being squished by the baby. So I learned to eat much smaller portions, and more frequently (think hobbit with 7 or 8 meals a day). Depending upon the individual woman's temperament, is also how she will emotionally handle being pregnant in the first place. I know I hated the last 5 months. But then again, I'm one of those women who don't understand how anyone could possibly be happy with having physical abilities limited because of this. Never did get that, the "I love being pregnant" deal. Depending upon how large the child is in the last trimester, and how quickly it grows, also affects how you feel physically during that time frame. The last trimester is the period of the most growth for a fetus, particularly the last month. And then you get to labor and delivery. Each pregnancy is different. For example, I was in labor with the first one for 18 hours, the second for 8, the third for 22, the 4th one for only four, and the last one for 14 hours. Again, depending upon the size and position of the child (barring no complications) one can have a variety of issues with the actual birth. First babies are honestly the toughest to deal with for the birth itself, as the woman has NO idea what she's getting in to. I don't care how many classes you go to beforehand, there is nothing like the actual experience to really teach you what is going to happen, and prepare you for future deliveries. All five of mine were natural deliveries. Meaning no epidural, no spinal block, none of that. Just enough pain killer to try and take the edge off the pain of the labor itself. So then you have that to look at. Depending upon what kind of drugs one is given, whether or not the birth is c-section or natural, all play in to how much it actually hurts when the time comes.

you're welcome!

There is a Pokemon category in the games subdomain, for stories based on the game. The one in anime is for anime based stories.

Not to worry, family and real life ALWAYS come first. Hope things are well with you.

As long as it's their own stories users are asking copies for, that's definitely not a problem. Where we say something is if people ask for copies of other peoples' work where they've taken it down.

Yeah, that was the cobblefic that was enormous. If I'm remembering rightly, this particular story was cobbled in part from this one
