Dear readers, I bring tidings of our humble but always striving website… and this time around, those tidings are glad indeed, more so than the last time we did this.
First off, we have a couple of new team members. Allow me to introduce the latest recruits to Team Juicy Secrets.
We took applications for a new editor, and got a very enthusiastic, very impressive response from some of you — more than I expected! In the end, though, one petitioner for the position stood out, and the nametag goes to him. He’s got a fine way with words, and some excellent ideas for the site. Please welcome Corrigan as our new Site Editor.
(A fervent “thanks a million” to those who applied for this post. Your willingness to help will long abide with us.)
In the process of seeking editing help, we filled a position I wasn’t even looking to fill, though in retrospect, it makes perfect sense. A tip of the hat to my current writing partner Sapphmore, who will be joining us as a Site Archivist. He may be the only person in the universe who has more lesbian stories in his personal possession than I do, a collection that he vows to plumb to its depths for our reading delight.
We have two other news items, both concerning the Juicy Secrets site itself, both positive.
First, Amanda and I put together two master lists, one for every story and one for every author who appears at JS. These lists can be found at the tab at the top of the page that reads “every story from a to z.” This is where to go if there’s nothing new and you’re looking for something, anything to get off to. Before, all of our content was divided up between six separate pages, with some authors appearing on more than one. This new page makes it easier to find what you’re looking for… or discover some savory treat you didn’t know was there. Do check it out.
Secondly, our Site Friend and beloved author No One set up something for us that we’re totally jazzed about: a rating system for all our stories. At the end of each story or chapter, you will see a line of five hearts, accompanied by the words Did you like this? If you care to provide an answer to that particular question, you now have the means to do so, simply by clicking on the appropriate heart. (Hint: when using our ratings system, we especially love getting clicks on the right-hand side.) Yes, you no longer have to leave a comment to make your opinion known, though we do still encourage and welcome reading your thoughts in greater detail.
And that’s the news from our funky little corner of the internet. Thanks for reading, thanks for caring, thanks for being part of our world. Would that, for a moment at least, my arms were long enough to hug you all.
Your comrade in things erotic, JetBoy
All brilliant news Jetboy. Thanks to you all for continuing the hard work to keep this great site at the top of our daily reading.
Thanks to all the team at JS, you are really appreciated. A perfect place to escape too in this crazy world. xoxox
Thank you JetBoy for your kind words and the opportunity to serve as Site Editor. I’m proud and humbled to have this chance to build on the excellence that is the JuicySecrets legacy.
This site has been like my own personal candy store for years … and where the treats are free! It’s time to give back. So, as I assume this role, I promise to bring my best efforts each day to honor the high standards and commitment shown by the founders and staff every day. I hope to meet you all in the days ahead! Reach out to me anytime with suggestions, feedback, and comments at [email protected]
Love to all,
Corrigan
A huge thanks to JetBoy, Corrigan, Sapphmore, Amanda Lynn, & No One, and all the others. We had no idea how
to use the ratings thing so thanks for the instruction.
That is all great news.
Ever grateful to you all for this hot site. Kim and Sue
Thank you for all your hard work to keep this great site up and running.
Glad to hear about the new additions. Does this mean a quicker turnaround of stories/chapters is on the horizon?
I think the ratings system is a great idea, as it lets authors know if their story is worth continuing and takes like a second, so even lazy people (and I do include myself in this sometimes) can let an author know.
Look forward to the future of this site. Welcome aboard Corrigan and Sapphmore.
We do hope to see more regular posting in the days to come. Give us a couple of weeks to get our new crew members up to speed, and we’ll see.
Sounds good, hope I didnt sound like I expected it to happen overnight, know it takes time for people to gel into roles and how things work.
I like the rating system, but found out I voted twice on one story. Is that the way it is for the absent minded among us?
I still very much prefer the comments themselves. Especially from E,T&A. But all in all I still love J.S..
I love that the site will be more productive in the months ahead and we understand why it takes a little time to catch up. Good job all you site people.
Kim& Sue
Welcome new team members!
Thanks all, I’m excited to be part of the family. Going from avid reader, to virgin author then sapphic story seeker isn’t something I envisaged a few months ago, but I shall endeavour to do the role justice.
Good news, all around! Thanks to everyone who makes this great place even exist, much less thrive! It’s sooooooo very much appreciated!
Great news all around from my favorite team!
