...modestly blushes.
Thanks for your kind comments about sound effects.
Chelmer:
one of the things I really enjoyed were the sound effects
Back to School is a good story for the FX-merchant as there are several different styles of caning and crying sounds described in the text.
I sometimes wonder when I add them to a narration whether they are adding to the story or distracting from it. Sometimes I'm sure, as in the case of A Small Sand Shovel (Spankzz) where the effect of the story was built through the sound of the words so additional effects would have been superfluous.
For FX affecionadoes may I also suggest:
Safe Boating (Dave Caldewell), The Dream Spankers (Flopsybunny), The Quickie (Artofzee), A Doctor Canes ( DJ Black) & Gone Away ( Nancy Wing).
I've only just submitted Slipping Away by Ruegirl in two versions, with and without sound effects, as I remained in this quandary. Let's see which one the mods choose.
