 A blog of no uncertain musings. What goes on in my mind is often a source of wonder to me. |
The prompt for Day 4 in "Earn the Badge - Open"  is:We all started somewhere. What's one of the first things you posted to your portfolio? How did you feel about it then? What would you change now or do differently? Is it hidden in your port? Showcase this gem on the newsfeed. I wrote the following story while on another social internet site. But that site closed and I was left adrift. A search of Google led me to Writing.Com. This story was one of my first stories posted on WDC; I received my first review for this offering as well.
The story was based on a conversation I had with another member of that first social site. We were talking about lighthouses, a phenomenon that has piqued my interest for many years. She mentioned a haunted lighthouse in Minnesota, and my imagination was off and running. I received some pretty positive comments from people on that site about my story. When I joined WDC, I had more than 20 stories from which I might post. Before I joined WDC, I discovered there was an active Erotica group there, which was my favorite writing interest. Many of those 20-plus stories were of the Erotica genre. I was a bit shy at first, how my erotic tales might be received. I opted for safety and posted "The Refuge." While I wouldn't say this story is hidden, a lot of stories reside in various folders in my Port--the function of having a Premium membership with all that available space. Perhaps, I will do some Fall cleaning. Still, this tale continues to be one of my favorites ... as is. |
