-lesbian sex
-interracial sex (With black men)
-mature/vast age difference
-some BDSM
-and possibly group sex

Which one category would I put this story in? Erotic Couplings?

I'd go with Group Sex. EC is more for one-on-one. I've posted Group Sex stories with all the elements you mentioned, and more. Did well, too.

I agree with the H-bomb above me, Group is the best bet, they are okay with pretty much all your "ingredients" The only issue I would see is the BDSM if its hardcore it could turn that crowd off, but all the other stuff wouldn't work in bdsm.

*Ahem*

*My $.02*

I was thinking more like Erotic Couplings, if BDSM is not too hardcore. Since most of it sounds like one-on-one sex.

But if group sex is more predominant theme in your story, then you should go ahead with that.

Generally, EC is where you put things that just don't go anywhere else.

Sometimes people deliberately publish separate chapters to different categories. On the whole people's experience is that that diminishes rather than increases readership, but it's quite fun if you are not too sensitive about scores. Different categories have very different audiences, some are much kinder and more generous, not just with the score they give but with giving a score and/or comments at all.

Readers can easily follow all your chapters, not just because they're listed under your Submissions. Handy links are also provided at the side of the chapter they are reading.

I'm basically writing it as though i were watching a movie. There's a "montage"-like scene that includes, what could be group sex on a college campus.
There'd be another montage of the women she's slept with, the married men she's slept with etc.
So the group aspect might just be one scene that's basically glossed over.
The BDSM scene isn't too hardcore or long. Again, basically a brief memory.

So would EC still be ok?

 

[NaokoSmith]

*whisper* the proper category is probably Novels and Novellas. But the readership in there is very low so people eschew posting there unless they are seriously serious types who are not too bothered about high view numbers.

Laurel will reassign the parts to different categories if she thinks they will get a more appropriate audience in there. She is usually right, I have had a story I tried to put in Fantasy and she pushed it into Gay Male where it does nicely.

If you want to post in EC, you had better put a note in the Comments box when you submit to explain you are doing so because it fits overall with all of the parts of the story, even if the specific part you're posting is light BDSM or whatever.

The more i think about it, the more i think Interracial would be right. The main character is hispanic/latin. She has sex with many different men and women of all different races. so technically every encounter would be interracial. Right?

This is the woman I'm using as a reference point:

Interracial love was my first thought on viewing your various segments. One glove doesn't fit all but that's about the best solution.

Here, IR is code for BBC or its inverse - Big Black Cock splitting Innocent White Pussy, or Studly Honky porking a Nubian Goddess, yada yada. I apply the tag 'multiracial' to stories with ethnic interactions, which in my tales involve many ethnicities -- and I know the difference between puertorriqueño and costarriqueño. Posting this series in IR may disappoint many IR readers, alas.

I'd still recommend Group Sex, as long as she has more than a couple group sessions. I've successfully written episodes containing strong FF, MM, MMFF+, inter- and multi-racial, mature, non-con, incest, and other elements, and posted them in GS. See my DEXTER and RON stories for those.

No, one glove does not fit all. But GS allows many sins, er I mean much fun.

How many installments of this story are you planning? One, two, three, five, twenty? If there will be multiple chapters, then you can place the various chapters in different categories. There are advantages and disadvantages to this strategy. If it is going to be a very long piece, then Novels and Novellas makes some sense. But keep in mind that the viewing numbers in that category are relatively low. What are you looking for, the category that will get you the most views or the highest scores? Or are you just looking for the best fit? Once you answer that question, you'll have a better idea of where to place it.

I'm currently working on a story that probably belongs on Loving Wives, but there's no way in hell I'm posting it there. I'll probably sacrifice some views and avoid a whole lot of vitriol by placing it in Interracial. I'm not going to worry too much about that decision, however, until the story is completed.

One installment. Would probably be between 5 and 7 literotica pages. I think i'm looking for best fit category.

They'll be 2 threesomes, and one "montage-like" scene of her and her sister servicing some college kids.

Everything else is one on one sex. So still GS? or EC?

"her and her sister servicing..."

That comes across as side-by-side rather than intimate contact with each other. If they're not engaging each other, I wouldn't worry about any incest blow-back from other categories. If they do engage each other, you'll want to be prepared for people who get creeped out by it.

It sounds like you have a fair amount of group sex. Are any of the 1on1 encounters meetings that eventually lead to one of the threesomes? If so, those weigh in on the group sex side, because they're leading to it.

Yep, side by side. in the same room. her and her sis not actually touching each other. some of the one on ones could lead to threesomes yes.

Sounds as if Group Sex is the place where the story best fits + will have the most readership.

A few people will be creeped out by the sisters having sex in the same room, but I doubt it will be enough to affect your score or readership. The squick level probably depends upon how much they look at each other, talk to each other, etc. during the scene.

There's a fine line there where the kink outweighs the squick as a positive.

I don't think it will be a problem at all. I've had brother and sister fucking their partners side-by-side in a group sex story without a single complaint. I've also had twins sisters having sex with each other in a Noncon story without complaints. I don't think anyone will be bothered by the OP's scenario.
