Finding Old Gold

I only want to add my vote for ruegirl. Her stories sizzle! You should also take a look at Daria Little's stories. Li'l Daria, as she was known in the late 80's and early 90's has not been heard from by anyone in decades and her stories were old when I first ran across them in the eighties. Take a look. And Ed Finn's 'Cindy's Worst; a Spanking Mom's Memoir' is on the 'most commented' list even now and old as the hills. I bought a copy from CFPubs way back and is WELL worth a read.

Billboard. I once went through all the titles by aphabitical order over a period of about 5 weeks when I first joined the site. To be sure many new titles have been added since then but you will find all the info you are looking for that way and find the nuggets that you seek. Guess you'd have to be as crazy as me to do it that way but I found it well worth the time. Not to mention learning things about the Genre you would find in no other way.

Spanko's! Grin!

Brilliant search tip, tiptopper! Thanks for teaching (me? us?) that clicking on the header works to sort the field. I should have realized that Februs would have it work that way, but it had never occurred to me. It's a wonderful feature and I'll be using it a lot.

Using tiptopper's tip, I've discerned that there are indeed very few stories with over 1,000 views. There seem to be only six such stories with "no sexual content" and only two with the red circle. There were no stories over 1,000 views that had the pink or the purple circles - I wonder if that should tell us something?


That's a great recommendation, Twisted. I was up to speed on Daria Little's stuff before I got here, and her stories were always aligned with my interests - always. I had 5 or 6 on my hard drive since the 90's. I will make a point to check out "Cindy's Worst." I've seen it noticed by others but have never clicked on it yet. Tonight's the night!

I'm still hoping for some recommendations of particular stories. Anybody else got any strong favorites to nominate?

Yea. Take a look at the recent 'Favorites Shared' thread. Some of us put up six off our lists to pass around.

Another random way is if you happen to see an author's story and like it then go to their author page and you can find some great older stuff that way too. It always interests me when an old one of mine gets a comment. I sometimes wonder how the person found it.

I want to share a nugget of gold that I came across - Cindy's Worst: A Spanking Mom's Memoir by Ed Finn. It's the only story by this author, and it was posted to the library almost two years ago. It's a wonderful mother / teenage daughter story, and I highly recommend it to those who like that type of story.

I indeed never knew before the end of a contest, who wrote what. Surprisingly I mostly rated stories of authors high, whose stories I appreciated before; but these stories were very rarely among the winners. Therefore for me recommendations of others are not so helpful. I have to find out myself what I like. But sometimes I found authors in a competition, who I would never find through my search criterias, like flowerchild's stories. But anyway my least problem on this site is to find good stories despite how old or new they are. It's much harder to find the time to read them all.

Ed Finn writes for CF Publication. The stories are sold. For a time I had unlimited access to all Bethany's sites. This ended recently with new policy, name and possibly owner. I looked into his index and he has 32 stories to his name, including Cindy's Worst.
