I didn't use a couple of tidbits that could have given it a few more dozen works but my goal was to go for the cheap chuckles. Unfortunately, 3 of the protagonists haven't seen it yet, so I may be out on my butt when they do.
Oooops, that might interfere with my work on stories about a kid with a few fans. And I wouldn't want to upset readers or CJ himself. He has a temper and owns a gun.
Replying to prompts I believe helped make me a better author. It allowed me to experiment, write all sorts of genres, and not make a full commitment to any story. I wrote lots of comedic stuff but there were also sappy stories and tearjerkers.
It took me longer to post this story than to write it, so I think once anyone sets a collection up, an hour or two on the weekend could give authors more exposure and readers a chance to sample different stuff.
That's your hook! Trevor strips at a club while in college. You know, to help pay the bills... He could sell his used, sweaty jocks to make a little extra. Start writing.
Bite your tongue! This is how it started with that little series. A handful of characters and a few hundred words. Somehow, it mutated into a monster with some 450 named characters.
I'm too old to keep track of two large casts!
I'll keep that in mind... I do have a couple of drag queens coming up sometime in the future but they have been named.
Is Eileen related to Will Bender?
I should have included more authors to ensure more responses.
The reaction to CDMX has been outstanding, but I know most of my readers wait until the story's complete to recommend it and like it. And that's perfect for me. So, If everyone who likes this vignette also reacts to the story...
I mean between what I wrote and the comments, plenty of chuckles have been provided.

Most of us who played with the prompts have either been promoted or left the site. I'm not sure why the newer crowd doesn't bite.
@clochette
Thanks for the plug. Now go like and recommend the story. I'm serious about making this one even more popular than the regular one I have going on.
Sooner or later, Northman will get into an argument with someone over CJ's activities. The ambassador already told him he was being silly about fearing drug use by CJ. Next time, she could use stronger language.

It started as a bunch of men in jockstraps "pulling" a sleigh with Santa on it. Rudolph would have complained about wearing pink instead of red. Still a theater show. Sometimes I struggle to get 100 words down and you saw how fast this went. If only I could bottle that energy.
Thanks for tagging me, that was fun.
No go like and recommend the damn thing.
Mann shook his head and sighed. “You know? I thought we were done with this shit.”
He and the other members of the Georgia—usually abbreviated to GA—Stallions had just opened presents from their Secret Santa, and his did not make him happy.
The other four men in the foremost strip troupe in the Southeast—excluding Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana—giggled like a bunch of prepubescent girls.
“You know we love you, big guy.” Myr, the group’s founder and leader, threw an a
I've been trying to show CJ's development so when he does make a power grab, we know he'll be looking at what's best not just for him and his cronies. And that started before our previous president showed us how to do it. Interestingly, I've been jotting notes for future books/chapters, and one of them involves Brett complaining about people being extra nice to him and Cesar in an effort to curry favor with CJ.
CJ's view should be broader.
