Story Critique Queue

[loganforester]

I'd like to have a story reviewed.

I've participated in one discussion and will get to the current one later tonight. The story I have in mind is the latest released chapter of the novel I started with my 2008 Halloween contest submission.

I've been gone from writing and mostly from lit for the past 6 weeks and need to get writing again. So I figured why not get a discussion going about my last chapter while I write the next one. Let me know where I stand in the queue.

 

[Penelope Street]

Since priority is based first on previous participation, unless I missed something, the current queue is: loganforester, regularguynsac, hypnopup.

 

[regularguynsac]

I've participated. At least I think I have. Just not sure if I've done it in the right areas.



Let me know. I am trying to follow along in the main thread.

Hi Sam,

Thanks for the quick reply to my impiied question! If you've participated in prior discussions, then I've already skipped you inappropriately and you should be next in the queue.

[regularguynsac]

Thanks. Can you link me to the current review, even if it is complete?

Story Discussion threads all feature the post icon, which resembles a sheet of paper(see above), and have titles beginning with "Story Discussion". Anyone with good intentions is welcome to join a discussion and share their thoughts on the story. Rarely does a discussion formally close, though the active period tends to be about a week.

Sorry, I'm cancelling my entry. I got enough decent feedback that I know where I need to make some serious revisions before asking for more feedback. Thanks anyway! I'll hopefully try back when I've got a better rewrite or a different story.

No problem. Come back whenever you have another story you want to put up. Feel free though to continue to participate in others' critiques!

Story: Unamed as of yet. This is Chapter one and it's still progressing

The story is about a man who meets a lady he's been having a virtual relationship with over a period of months. She surprises him at their first meeting by showing up married, with her husband.

The idea was to write concerning certain lifestyle aspects without it coming across like just another Bondage, the hope was to end up with something that placed images in the mind and tested the boundaries of the reader

Please remember.. this is only chapter one. It's meant to be an introduction with small interactions to expose character traits of the 3 main characters.

Thank you for your consideration.

Hi Sam,

Could you be ready to start your discussion sometime this weekend?

Penny

 

[regularguynsac]

Yes. Sounds like a plan to me.

Thank you.

Where did everyone disappear to? Was my story that scary. Seriously, I'm quite sure mine has run more than it's required time and someone else can have the spotlight whenever they want it? Anyone? Don't make me beg.

I still have to get round to that one when work is less crazy and I've got some time again. Expect me to necro that thread at some point in the old better late than never philosophy

The queue is empty other than Sam, who was supposed to start his discussion over the weekend, however he's disappeared. I hope it's not because of an unforeseen real life issue for him, but that's usually what it is when a member just vanishes.

That's fine whenever you get the chance. It's an ongoing project(I have no idea how long it will take to complete, it's very long), so being late is pretty much impossible.

This place had really picked up since the start of the year, but it's starting to fade again. Hope we get some new participants soon.

It's always been cyclic here, at least over the last several years, so a lull is no surprise. If Sam doesn't reappear within the next few days and no one else expresses an interest , I'll offer a story. And it's not as if we can't also discuss other writerly topics, like Keroin's opening lines thread.

Unfortunate that it's gotten quiet in here again. I wouldn't mind another one of my stories to be critiqued although it would be nice for more authors to come on over.

I like this place. Forces me to read stories and analyze them which helps me as a writer (I think)

I posted a thread over on the AH asking for volunteers so maybe someone will come over.

 

[Penelope Street]

Sam's (a.k.a regular guy) is back; turns out his issue was computer related. I've given him the green light to start his discussion this weekend.

I posted a thread over on the AH asking for volunteers so maybe someone will come over.

Good idea. Thank you.

I wouldn't mind another one of my stories to be critiqued...

You're certainly welcome to do so!

 

[regularguynsac]

I will post for the weekend.

I will be asking for readers to critique each of the three sections and then give me direction for part 4.

Thank you for the interest.

 

[regularguynsac]

Am I able to post my stories yet? If so can you tell me where?

Thanks

 

[Penelope Street]

Hi Sam,

I assume you mean start your discussion thread and not submit an actual story.

The guidelines are here:
http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=22610237&postcount=2

You can create your thread by clicking this link:
http://forum.literotica.com/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=14

Start it whenever you're ready.


If that doesn't answer your question, just ask it again in a different way and I promise to answer in a different way.

Take Care,
Penny

If there's no one in line, can I go next?

Hi,

Erin is in line, but my understanding is that she's willing to wait until there are no other volunteers, so you can go next.

The guidelines are above in post #73. If the story (or portion thereof) is already posted, you're welcome to start your thread whenever you are ready.

Take Care,
Penny
