I've just sent in my submission for the Smut By The Sea compilation which has been a fun little story to write. It's quite a simple story, but those can be the hardest to write as it's about trying to find a balance between the utter minimalism of 'X met Y, and then they had sex' and something that gets so obsessed with detail that you can't see the sex for the body parts. I think I've struck the balance, and managed to give the characters in it some depth and some reasons for their getting together, but we'll have to wait and see what the editors think.
And as I came to the end of that one, I had another idea for another compilation that's coming up soon. It'll be interesting to write, as it feels like it should be in first person, and the lead character's got a very distinctive voice, but if I get it right, that's what'll make the story go well.
