2026 Literotica Competitions and Author-Organized Events

"GAP AT END OF JUNE - POTENTIALLY FIT AN EVENT IN HERE"

I still think "All Aboard!" has potential. Tales of travelers on various vessels and vehicles. Trains, planes, automobiles. Even cruise ships, busses/motorcoaches, RVs/Caravans. Private, family, charters, tours.

'All aboard' has double entendre potential too. She/he/they take on all cummers to climb on and go crazy.

June/July is ripe for travel, no?

CT's been in contact with Admin on these things, so let us know. Not sure I'd want to run it, but I might help some.

 

[EmilyMiller]

Yes - Saw that - Laurel PM'd me about it as well

I have sent her the missing support thread links as well as the ‘‘Tis the Season… for Conception" event to replace Amorous Goods

All the NEW EVENTS (or replacements) are confirmed and are good!!!!!!

We are all GO for 2026!

Thx a million everyone for helping put this together!!!!!!

As we create the remaining Support Threads, I'll consolidate and send to Laurel so we can keep the PM's to a minimum

Thanks so much @ChloeTzang

"All Aboard!"

Tales of travelers on various vessels and vehicles. Trains, planes, automobiles. Even cruise ships, busses/motorcoaches, RVs/Caravans. Private, family, charters, tours.

Inspired by this thread: https://forum.literotica.com/threads/waiting-for-a-train.1642624/

But your story doesn't need to be that kind of set-up. It can be any mode of travel that a group of people share for any reason. Several options are presented in that thread.

'All aboard' has double entendre potential too. She/he/they take on all cummers to climb on and go crazy.

June/July is ripe for travel, no?

Note, stories here could potentially double for National Nude Day since this is a Challenge and not a Contest.



Might @KindredFlame want to host this considering the Story Ideas thread?

PM me and we can chat about that one

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

What's to chat about?

Yay, cool.

Nah, I'll delete it.

I would not have a clue what to do?

 

[KindredFlame]

Yay, cool.

Nah, I'll delete it.

I would be happy to run this if you could guide me to what I would need to do?

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

Once Laurel says Yay or Nay, just review some of the other Challenge threads (not so much the Contest threads) and go from there. Use the text I posted above for the most part and add your own flavor. From there, it's just monitoring, prompting/bumping every few weeks and answering any questions others pose.

 

[KindredFlame]

So they post the story on a specific thread do they?

 

[KindredFlame]

How strange I have three travel story’s on the go at the moment but I am not sure they will all make the cut. One might be in the winter comp. We will see.

 

[BryanRichardson]

I am late to this thread, but I would like to include the Survivor Challenge. It runs for the whole year, so there is no slot necessary.

https://forum.literotica.com/threads/survivor-25-rules-and-registration-thread-read-first.1625487/

I just asked Secretlace if they were planning to host it again, but if not I would be willing to host it.

 

[soflabbwlvr]

No I haven't had a reply either and I've sent her 2 or 3 PM's - let's just go ahead and organize on the basis that we assume these will be approved as per the above list.

Go ahead and open your support page for FANFIC whenever you like.

@NaughteeDragon - iopen a support page for your "Tis the Season" event whenever you like - I know you haven't done one before so why don't you and I work offline via PM to get it written up and then you can post it when you're satisfied with it.

I'm going to do my Jasmine Tea one this week too.

@Trionyx - you could set up your Support Thread for the Music Challenge too if you like

@bettiezyx - ditto with the AI challenge - we can get the Support Thread in the calendar and then bump it in 2026 when we get closer

@soflabbwlvr - as above - lets get the Support Thread setup, get the link in the calendarb and then bump it in 2026 when we get closer

@Rustyoznail - Ditto for the Summer Lovin' Competition

If anyone needs help with wording or whatever, just PM me and we can work on it offline

My thought here was, this is all early - bit of we get everything setuop for 2026, everyone will know what's coming and can plan what they want to write for - we can promote all the events and competitions - and it makes it really easy for Laurel when she sets up the 2026 pages for Competitions and Events - she doesn't need to ask who's organizing each one and followup, the Support Thread links are in place, and we can all go ahead and have fun.....

for myself, I'm already looking at what I can do for which....it's probably going to motivate me to write more than I normally would - I have a couple of ideas already wooo hooooooo

Just added. Been busy, or I would have done this sooner.

 

[SkyBubble]

Thank you for organizing the list in one place.

 

[ChloeTzang]

More Support Threads added, and a few more for later in 2026 will be coming as they're completed

The Competitions (Red) and recurring and one-off events (Green) calendar for 2026 to write to well ahead of time. Support Pages are now in place for quite a few of these with more underway. Links included below where they are available.

So you all now have no excuse LOL. Pick your compoetitions and events and get started

[AchtungNight]

Just noticed this thread. Thx to Chloe and all participants for putting this together. I am not committing to any events at this time, but if inspiration strikes in the right circumstances, who knows?

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

I would be happy to run this if you could guide me to what I would need to do?

Looks like you may have to push a bit if you want this added.

 

[ChloeTzang]

Looks like you may have to push a bit if you want this added.

We're talking off-line

I have to get Laurels approval to add it in
