Would it be possible to start a Forum consisting of just erotic scenes?
I have a good share of them in my head and I think other people do too.
I am talking about really short stories, too short to bother posting on Literotica.
Perhaps only three or four paragraphs, at most a page.
 
Ogg is known for his 50 word stories in groups of 15 ( to reach the minimum 750 for submission to Lit ) so collecting some flash fics that share some sort of a theme and posting them together is always an option.

I'm sure that announcing at the beginning of the submission that it's a collection of really short tales is a good idea ( if the title doesn't make it obvious ) if you go that route.

Beyond that, I'm not sure. Just posting scenes or flash fiction doesn't really fit in anywhere in the forum -- though there are specific challenges in the challenge sub-section of the forum ( up by the sticky posts ) where you might find that a few of them fit.

If you can think of some sort of challenge/excercise criteria to build around it, you could always start your own challenge thread to post them there, as well.

There are a few sites that accept erotic flash fiction, but I've never really explored the popularity of it, and haven't really read any of them.
 
Have you checked out some of the options in the Challenges and Exercises section? Or are you thinking of something outside the Authors' Hangout?

Personally, I think the readership for well-written short stuff is to be found among the frequenters of AH. Maybe a new category that goes beyond six words, dirty in thirty, really short, or whatever, is a possibility? But I think C&E is probably the place.

I agree with SamScribble, above. I think there's a strong argument for introducing another category on Literotica's main story site: Flashfiction, or something similar.

I don't know exactly what the minimum length requirement is for a story at the moment, but I believe there is one. I'd like to have the opportunity to post shorter pieces as well - from 50 up to 1,000 words, perhaps. There's certainly an art to writing Flashfiction, and it has its own distinctive flavour when it works. It seems to me it's very well-suited to sex writing. Flashfiction might become a popular category.

(Of course, I realise that Literotica is very conservative when it comes to introducing categories. - In fact, I have no idea if a new one has ever been introduced since the site started.)

The current minimum length for a story is 750 words, which is why, as mentioned by Darkniciad above, I write 50-word stories in sets of 15 (50 x 15 = 750 words).

However there is nothing to stop anyone posting flash fiction as Poetry for which there is no minimum length. I posted my first few 50-word stories as Poetry, but they had fewer views than the 15 x 50 word sets.
