       Central Point High School - A New Series by Jack 
       By: Jack Date: August 8, 2022, 4:56 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       in case there's anyone here who is interested, but doesn't check
       MMSA on a regular basis, I wanted to mention that I have a new
       series.
  HTML https://malespank.net/viewStory.php?id=51588&login=author
       To be clear, this is NOT a spanking story.  There are spankings
       in almost every chapter, and I try to make them hot,
       interesting, and relevant, but this is intended to be a high
       school soap opera, where a lot of the characters happen to be
       gay and many of them happen to be into spanking.  Sure, it's
       wish fulfillment, but hopefully it's interesting wish
       fulfillment.
       Originally, this was intended to be ten chapters, but it ended
       up at twelve, and those twelve are over 70,000 words, so it's
       definitely novel length.  In case you didn't guess, that means I
       did write the entire first Season before I began posting it, to
       be sure I wouldn't become discouraged and quit partway through.
       I have called these first twelve chapters 'Season One' and it
       ends on a cliffhanger.  I wasn't sure if I was going to continue
       or not, but I've had enough fun with it that I've already
       started writing Season two.
       I also want to take a minute to thank Adric, who's been my
       editor for this series (and other writing) as well as Zac and
       Kier, who've been beta readers and helped a lot with feedback
       and continuity.
       Hope that, if you check it out, you enjoy it.
       Thanks

       You will want to read this one.  I mean I love everything Jack
       writes but this one is special for a number of reasons.
       One it's new.  How long has it been since Jack wrote something
       new?  I don't know.
       But the main reason I'm having fun with this story is that Jack
       is going to have the entire student population in this thing.
       (Exaggerating) (I think) and yet each and every character it
       distinct and most importantly you can keep them all clear in
       your head.

       It really IS excellent.  So good that, having beta read it, I am
       rereading each chapter as it posts on MMSA.  I can't wait for
       series 2.

       It appeared a few days ago but somehow came in under my radar

       The first five episodes of this series have now been posted, and
       I have to admit that, while I'd love more feedback, I'm
       extremely happy with the number of readers who've stayed with
       the series this long.
       REQUEST AND DISCUSSION:
       It's interesting to me that, of the five episodes currently
       posted, three of them received a staff recommendation.  Now, I
       don't know if these were all reviewed by the same person or not,
       but I'd be interested in hearing what anyone thinks about
       reasons that some of them were recommended and others weren't.
       I have my own ideas, but I'd like to hear yours first.
       Thanks,
       Jack

       Jack, I find that same thing with my stores, especially the
       series.
       Some will have the Staff Recommendation and others won't and
       they were all usually written at the same time, just broken up
       into series.
       My thought about this is that it depends on who reviews it.  Now
       I rarely know who reviews my stories.  Occasionally a reviewer
       will send me feedback and tell me they reviewed and liked the
       story, so those I know, but most I don't.
       I do find it odd, when I will write a story in two hours and
       send it in, and it gets a Staff Recommendation, and I will spend
       weeks going over and over another story to get everything just
       right and no Recommendation.
       The only way I can explain that happening is different
       reviewers.  Which makes sense, because each reviewer has their
       own personal taste in a story.  Being a reviewer, I would assume
       that review stories that aren't their personal taste, so it
       would only make sense they wouldn't put their own recommendation
       on a story that isn't of their taste.
       I know I could never be a reviewer.  There are many reasons why,
       but one of those reasons, I only read stories that I find
       personally desirous.  I mean I read stories from a lot of
       authors, but not all the stories written for a particular
       author.  Some stories are in my wheelhouse and others aren't,
       even those written from the same author.

       I just wanted to make a couple of announcements here.
       First, let me remind readers that the Raven's Guide to CPHS is
       available here -
  HTML https://docs.google.com/document/d/19-Q08ldlpMVjux2_Pg2VSkCtISrfyUoDDI0jnDjHGCQ/edit?usp=sharing
       Second, I'm happy to announce that all of season three has now
       been submitted and the last five episodes should be appearing
       over the next month or so.  S03 is actually longer than the
       first two at 16 chapters.  A lot of the reason for that is, I
       burned out while writing season two and just jumped to a close,
       rather than leaving things hanging.  At that time, I really
       didn't plan to come back to it.  However, like Dad and Me, I
       really enjoy these characters.  However, that meant S03 had to
       explore and explain a number of things that were supposed to
       happen at the end of S02.
       Finally - I'm also happy to announce that I started the actual
       writing of S04 today.

       Happy to hear the announcement.  Excited to pre-read the new
       season chapters, and then get to read them again on MMSA.
