Story idea that contains a killing.

Well, gee. That certainly sounds erotic. (I suggest anger management).

The BTB revenge stories(revenge on both cheating wife and lover of said wife) make Non consent readership look like feminists and the erotic horror readers look soft.

Their is nothing erotic about these stories and most in that faction could and should be banned.

Instead the site now removes 'loving' stories from there because it upsets the trolls who live for stories like the one in the post you're responding to.

Genital mutilation is against the rules and the fact its "you don't know what happened to until the last word" shows the author is well aware of that rule.

But he needn't worry, being that its at the end it will survive the two sentence skim stories get here.

Maybe you should have noted that as previously advised, I intend to bring the content to Laurel's notice before consideration for publication. But that might have diluted the airing of your own opinions on the issue - which of course you are perfectly entitled to do.

However sr71plt has a point.

Power inbalances and the emotional/physical damage they cause intrigue me, they are found most often in the erotic horror, BDSM, LW and incest stories (particularly inter-generational incest) You have raised the bar a little; to write a horrific outcome but well within the rules. sr71plt's suggestion that it should be erotic is the tougher ask.

My dig wasn't aimed at you, but the lax 'reviewing' of stories here and my point is its a simple fact that if your nastiness is at the very en-or middle of a longish story-its not going to get noticed anyway.

But kudos to you for trying to be upfront.

I agree erotic horror has more leeway as far as violence and gore goes, but even there it can't be involved in the eroticism, so its just violence. Now BDSM?

The problem here is that category, like LW, has been over run by people clueless of the lifestyle and the three rules of "safe sane and consensual" BDSM lit style-and on many other story sites as well as on sites for sale. They think "Oh, beatings!" and write nothing but sadistic borderline torture porn and full out non consent because to them if the victim(sorry sub) calls their rapist sir or master it is BDSM

I gave up reading there a long time ago-except occasionally for someone requesting feedback on the boards-because although there are great stories and authors mixed in the category is an abysmal pool of rape and abuse.'

The site itself has proven they either have no clue what SSC means in BDSM or simply don't care. They also cannot get their story straight on consent period in any form of consistent manner

A story rejected today, may sail through tomorrow and the other way around.

My issue with the over the top violence in LW BTB(bitch or bastard) stories is as Pilot noted there is nothing erotic about them and that used to be a 'sex' category. Things that nasty should be tossed from any category except EH or maybe the catch all of novels and novellas.

Then again it is sexual in the sense the vicious hate spewing closet psychos and women haters probably do jerk off to the wife being sold into sexual slavery to be gang raped the rest of her life or having her nipples burned off and all the nastiness that happens to their lovers.

I have a folder just for LW that contains over 40 threats of violence and rape(because seeing I took 'the woman's side' I must be one) that is beyond the average you suck troll, that is disturbing.

But obviously the site enjoys that type of reader because they have gone out of their way to allow LW to be a snake pit to the point as I mentioned before, any decent story between a husband wife is being kicked into EC.

Over the years I've done three rounds of that, it doesn't work because usually the people running the group are just collecting their check and don't really try to do anything.

"Why are you angry today?"

"Because I'm sitting here with a bunch of idiots."

"That's a good answer, just keep letting it out like that"

Body count...

I've lost track of the body count in my stuff...but then it's posted in the non-erotic section (as it's not - but some folks seem to get off on it from feedback I've had) so I can't see that it would fall foul of the rules...

How about a tale of a sadistic fucker with such presence that every partner dies of heart attack during orgasm? The fucker suffers no remorse, of course; they enjoy providing le grande mort. All goes well till they fuck one who mirrors the fatal power back at them.

A giant female preying mantis doing a human male would also end in decapitation.

*snatches idea, runs away laughing evily*

Can one ever be too graphic with the written word in their stories they write?

The whole idea of written word is to convey the scene visually to the reader without pictures; just words. Granted, the writer is ultimately playing on the readers imagination. I say, the more graphic the story is told in detail tends to leave little to the imagination. So, there has to be a healthy balance. Or, is that really necessary when telling the story?

Depends on the person and their taste. Age may play in as well. If you're fairly young and all you know is gore galore films and in your face type of work, you need that detail of where every drop of blood splattered.

If you tend to be the type who likes suspense and the descending knife and cut away type scene, then you don't mind the author not supplying everything.

I enjoy HP Lovecraft and other authors from the Weird Tales day and those stories left it all to the reader, HPL said things like "A creature whose appearance could drive a man to madness" or all his books could send a man insane, but that left you to decide what that meant.

Like in erotica you have people who give bra and cup size and the exact length of a cock, but others say "ample breasts" "Sizable" "On the smaller side" and I'm a fan of that as I get to form my own image.

Two points.

1: A current story series I am writing has a part of a chapter near the end chapters where the main characters a t-girl and her newly married husband are on a travel tour and visit a [fictional] set that is written in the story as a movie set of a B-rated terror movie. The chapter has the husband to his new t-girl wife talk about the terror movie where the psycho killer killed his victims. The chapter does describe how the killer in the movie did is deeds and also how the hero in the movie kills the killer. The exciting part for me was making my t-girl character be all scardy cat and wanting to hold on tight to her new hubby as he comforted her in her scared state of mind with him walking her through the set locations and describing the killings. It is so exciting for my mind to have my t-girl character want that strong man to protect her even if it's only a movie set. I trust this is satisfactory.

2: I'm working on a new story series, where the main character a cding/sissy is being recruited by some strong male recruiters to then be sold off. The story has a scene where in breaking her into docility a series of canings has the girl in agony beg to be killed to stop the canings. The male recruiters do not kill her but in breaking her give her the opportunity to take her own life, which in the end she does not and as such she is then proven to be a broken sissy girl ready to be sold off. Is this an acceptable storyboard?

Thanks in advance for any input.

I'm glad to have seen this thread. My series will include one murder, and I was concerned about this very issue. Thank you to everyone who contributed.

Ah, but think of the [eventual] civil engineering clean-up squad.
No?
Ah well.
