Should have been labelled "Ch. 01;" some like to wait until the entire story is posted because delays between chapters can result in the reader forgetting what came before, then having to reread everything. Also, this story seems to have strong elements of BDSM and is far more appropriate in that category rather than Erotic Couplings. In fact, no "erotic coupling" occurred in this part, just some CBT and hints of things to come (pun intended). Two stars for above reasons, despite fair writing.
You make some fair points. No excuse, but I'm new to the site and this is my first submission so hopefully I can get better.
Yes, should have been labelled CH1, and CH2 will be lodged, today. I expect all 4 chapters will be lodged for publication this week.
For what it is worth, I have noticed a bunch of these "one pagers" recently. I have no trouble with these unless there is a string of them. This then bothers me because a story of 4 one page installments should normally be presented as a connected whole. A story well told is a continuous journey that should not be broken up into pieces unless there is a break in the plot or its timing that supports a new, separate installment. This is different from a story that is discontinuous or episodic in nature which is more logically presented in pieces. If it is easier for the author to write, edit and proofread his work in pieces, that's good, but the pieces should be reassembled before submission.
