There are some quality offerings, like those from SciDram - Let the Chips Fall and Short Time for example. Minimizer has one of his stories there from what I saw. But for the quality stories we see, there are DOZENS of average or even BAD stories from folks just pumping out crap to try to make money. I've read a few of them, and sad to say, some folks need to come up with some fresh ideas, good story-writing, and better plots than some of the stuff I saw.

Hey there! Thanks so much for the shout-out, and it's great to see your post!
Yeah, you're right. We're older now (I'm 50) and with that, there are different responsibilities. I've got a few new M/f novel ideas still in my head, and I may be adding one more oldie-but-goodie to Amazon Kindle soon, but I haven't stopped writing. Hoping you've enjoyed the ShrinkFan titles by me--and another is coming out May 1--and I've got a bunch of shorts (around 2000 words) over on my DeviantArt page.
I look forward to your epic work. Good luck with that!
