Recommendations!

"...clearly I'm geeked about finding a new author... to enjoy. Thank you for all the work you've put into your stories. I'm just mad I never discovered you before... I've been reading this stuff (erotica) for 13 years now, have been on SOL.net for more than four years, and only today I finally find you? It just is not fair! :("


Have you ever read a book that was so good you just had to share it with your friends right away? You loan the book out to someone and beg your friend to read it. Once they've done so you tell them to pass it on; you'd rather have more people enjoy it than have it back in your possession. If you never get the book back you don't care, so long as you know it's being enjoyed over and over again by many people, probably some of whom you don't know. You just want everyone, the entire world, to be able to experience the same giddy thrill you got from reading that novel the first time.

I'm like that. Lol, my bookshelf is packed tight with books I hate. The ones I love I just have to loan out, I just have to share them.

It has been a long, long time since I read an erotica story online that made me feel this way.

Now I have. Earlier today I discovered an amazing author named Rache. And she wrote a story that was so incredible that I nearly fainted while reading it. I was at work when I read it (slow day!). Once I started I just couldn't stop.

Let's cut to the chase: here's the link to her story (make sure you're logged into www.storiesonline.net first-- for the noobs it's a free sex-story site but you have to be registered to view its content; no spyware, no ads, 100% free, the real deal-- go reg, then click the following link): Long Fall to Forever.

Rache is the author. And I read all the installments of "Long Fall" at work. And I was pleased to discover the author has written many, many more stories besides on SOL. Because "Long Fall" is not only hot and well written, it's also intriguing, genuine, and compelling.

Right now I'm reading another of her stories from the same "world" LF takes place in (a story entitled "Runaway Dream"). I'm only about 1/4 of the way through of RD, but it is just as exciting, compelling, and awesome as the first story of hers I read, if not more so.

I don't want to spoil anything for you by telling you what these stories are about. Suffice it to say they're graphic, stirring, and definitely of the "forbidden" genre. And they are just... well, if you're like me you'll be hooked by the plot right away. I don't know how else to describe it.

I will say this: Rache is a terrific writer. She is superior to me in all ways when it comes to character development, plot, and creativity. And I don't easily say that!!! My ego is huge. But the fact that she can craft stories like this... wow. I didn't want to stop reading. I didn't want to stop cumming! Argh....

My one and only complaint about her is that she doesn't seem to proofread her works before posting. DO NOT CONSIDER THIS OBSERVATION AN INSULT, THOUGH! She occassionally makes a mistake like writing "your" instead of "you're". She occassionally makes a mistake by not identifying an article with its infinitive properly. Lord knows I've made many of the same mistakes. I'm just saying her stories aren't perfect.

But they are amazing. And easily the best erotic fiction I've read... ever?

Oh, I almost forgot! That quote at the beginning of this blog entry? That's from a fan mail I wrote to her earlier today. And though I always write to any author whose story "satisfies" me, I never gush like that. Never. I have literally never written such an embarrassingly complimentary e-mail to another writer before.

That's how much I loved this story. If you trust my judgment in such things, ignore the story codes. Just read either story I just posted links to. Or read her other ones... she's written over 100 (omg). And make sure to send her encouraging feedback, even anonymous feedback!

Let her know Shannon/PunkyGirl sent you! :P

You should know that Rache writes under a number of different pseudonyms -- also as "Kylie X" and "High School Sweetheart" as well as "Uziel." And these are just the ones I'm aware of. She's both ridiculously good AND ridiculously prolific.

Rache, HS Sweetheart, Kylie, Uziel, TS Severe... I will read anything she writes. She is one of the two writers that I like to read even when the particular twist of the story isn't my usual... the other writer of course is Shannon. Thanks for your works Shannon... I still reread TSS every few months. And SG... very good.

I went to Rachael Ross's website and read 'Daddy's Little Whore' and could not help thinking that I was reading a story penned by Shannon. The subject matter, as well as, the character development were similar. So, I'm not sure what that means but, are Rache and Shannon the same authors?

I have been a fan of Rache's work for a long time. But for me her best is Girl Fag

I noticed a huge pattern in her stories, she really does not like bras at all. I've read 3 of her stories now and each one specifically said the girl did not wear a bra for whatever reason. But other than that, I did truly love those stories. She can write from a lot of different points of view. Lesbian, straight, daughter, everything. she has some weird stories too. good stuff.

It's cool to see that Rache has so many fans!

To the first anonymous poster: No! I didn't know she had so many pen-names! I'm going to go look them up right now...

To the fourth anonymous poster: No, I'm not her. I'm Shannon. And I can only wish I was as prolific and skilled as she is.

To the sixth anonymous poster: As a general rule, bras are a pain in the butt the same way high-heels are. And makeup, actually. Men consider all of these things normal and necessary but the truth is they aren't. In a perfect world I could walk around in sneakers with no makeup on my face and my tits free underneath whatever outfit I wanted to wear. But the world isn't perfect, obviously. Rache clearly knows this, but decides to give a lot of her female characters freedom in at least one respect-- freedom from bras. I don't know why, exactly, you'd consider such a freedom a bad thing... but if you do, then please move to Saudi Arabia or something! :P

Sorry, Moan Amy,

I'm into girls who were born as girls. I'm into forcing them to be that way.

Not to piss on anyone else's parade, but girls as girls is my meat beater or beat her.

I read Long Fall on the back of your recommendation and *wow*. Truly one of the best stories I have read, ever. Could easily be made into a novel. Thanks for highlighting it, I have a lot of reading to do to catch up on all her other stories!
