What I've never been able to understand is why some LLs demanded so many free stories on a site. Two should be the maximum. I've never done a story-based free site simply because I just didn't want to give away that many free stories.

It depends on the length of the story. I could create a site with 20 stories on it in a morning. But all the stories would only be about a hundred words each.

That's right. There are stories and then there are STORIES, as in actual short stories that, if they were in pocketbook form, would be 3 to 5+ pages long and have a more involved plot.

And when you take the time to write such stories... they become something special to you. You definitely don't want to just give them away for free en mass. (or sell them for five bucks each for that matter)

Those really short "stories" are actually nothing more than letters. In fact I suggest we start referring to them as letters from now on to avoid confusion. I can understand how someone would want several pics to go with such short writings.
