I’ll bite. You can’t help fucking with the readers in Loving Wives. Whatever you write, 50% of them are going to be tweaked by it. It’s fun writing knowing that.

done that. now see it as a waste of energy - and why would i continue to attempt making people unhappy? it just pisses them off, they snarl, you write more. they hate you.

i now try to write for people who might enjoy the stuff i put out there.

not judging here, just my view on it.

I suppose it would be fucking with the readers if you said you were writing something for Loving Wives and you weren't really writing anything at all other than the claim that you were writing something for Loving Wives.

I got an angry Loving Wives comment that showed that Anon had been reading my posts about Loving Wives on the Authors' Hangout.

I wrote a Loving Wives/BTB spoof a while back that did this, sort of. It started out as a BTB story but turned the tables at the end. It got exactly the kind of reaction you would expect -- lots of vitriol. The comments were so nasty they were funny, and it remains my lowest-rated story by far.

I wrote it more to be playful and satirical than to "fuck with" the readers, and at the time I was shocked by the intensity of the response. I learned something about LW readers. I haven't published in that category since.

I like to make them cry.

 

[ChloeTzang]

I like to make them cry.

Usually when I do that I make myself cry too.

 

[Zeb_Carter]

All my LW stories poke one faction or another with a sharp stick. Comments are always a good laugh.

I do too. I consider myself a one woman control group. If it makes me cry, it will make them cry.

Of course if you write to a category to purposefully mess around with the minds of readers there, you should be able to understand why the reader reactions in that category are so vitriolic.

As far as I am concerned, except for one which should have been in Fetish, anything I post in Loving Wives should be there as the most appropriate category. Whatever I post in Loving Wives, someone thinks it shouldn't be there. I cannot please all the warring groups in Loving Wives.

I've written LW stories under my previous account, and every story I've written has been in response to the category explanation given by the Web site, not some group's idea of what belongs there. And none have been written to poke a stick at the readers.

But the Web site's explanation doesn't cover what many readers of Loving Wives consider is appropriate. Every story I put in Loving Wives fits the Web site's definition.

But one anonymous is deliberately bashing my stories.

That's too bad. Neither the Web site nor I am responsible for what every individual reader does, however.

I return to the point, responding to this thread, that if you poke at the readers in any category, don't be surprised if they poke back--and then poke at the stories of others who aren't fucking with them too.

And directly to the OP, I note that in order to fuck with the readers in Loving Wives you have to actually write a story to the category, not just claim you are writing. What this thread is meant to do is to fuck with the readers of the discussion board, not with the readers in Loving Wives.

I'm still at the stage where you play Hide and Seek with them, leaving clues here and there, then sitting back and watching in a depressed state as they miss them all.

LW readers wanna be pissed off, so give them what they want.

To my way of thinking a competent writer oughta master all the major affects, as actors do. Then master moods.

 

[oggbashan]

This one of mine was a deliberate tease for the readers:

https://www.literotica.com/s/breathless-stargazing

And this one was just for fun:

[ausfet]

Not 'the readers' as a whole, but a certain subsection, yes. I wrote https://www.literotica.com/s/the-swagman because I was fed up with a particular male demographic and their comments on my stories.


Funnily enough, the largest group of people to understand it were also male, and I received some amazing comments and PM's about it - make of that what you will.

 

[Charmolypi]

One of these data I need to write a story that lights up all the snowflakes. I’ll laugh my way down the comments section.

Oh yeah! That’s the way to go, but you have to work hard to antagonize more than 50%.

Lol. That’s as good as the OP! Loving this thread

Not really into alienating the reader unless it's an editorial. The reader is always an unseen character in my work (not erotica) Engaging them, shaping their perceptions and expectations and then playing with them, but poking them? No.

I'm still pissed at Charlie Kaufman for the 3rd act of 'Adaptation' (thanks for wasting my time while you make your clever little point, Charlie - I get it - the joke was on me).

I want my readers to feel rewarded when they're done.

 

[blozo]

I just did last week. It's called "Vicious".
Lowest rating and most nasty comments ever!
A smashing success in loving wives as far as I'm concerned.

Do You Fuck With The Reader?

Hell yes! At least the female ones who ask me nicely.

Now there is wishful thinking if i ever heard it.

And then there is JBJ who only wants to fuck with the authors here in the AH. That's the reason for all these idiotic threads of his. He could care less about your answer as long as he get some attention. So here James, you're getting a whole minute and a half of my attention.
