some of my poems:

ANTICIPATION

Dew trickeling down
Over Calla Lilly folds
Moist and glistening
---------------------------

Hot and Juicy
by sweetnpetite ©

Golden peaches in the sun
Piercing fuzzy skin
I savor dripping nector
-----------------------

Irresistible
by sweetnpetite ©

Mermaid kisses
seduce and lull
the hapless sailor
with life never dull
still far below
the salty deep
the foolish seafarer
for herself to keep.

------------------------

Ravishment
by sweetnpetite ©

Grab squeeze toss fling
Overcome capriciously
Overpowered with lust for me.
Electric! My body sings.
You see through me
Know just what I need
The thrust of what I need
Take me, spank me, make me-
Yours.

-----------------

The Beach
by sweetnpetite ©

Warm sand caress me
After the cool breeze kisses me
Across my damp skin
------------------

Two on a Towel

gulls cry circ'ling sunset sky
waves crash, stiff wind blows
you whisper and I'm ready
-----------------

White Cotton Panties
by sweetnpetite ©

White cotton panties
Stretched over creamy thighs
Innocence unveiled.

Longer Poems

Have Sex With Me
Come on in, Baby
Take it all off
Touch my body
Let's get lost.

Unbutton all my buttons
Drop my shirt on the floor
In no time baby
I'll be screaming more, more, more!

Have sex with me
Let your inhibitions go
Fill me with your heat
I won't tell you no.

Rub my hardened nipples
With your course manly hands
Tie my wrists to the chair leg
With thick leather bands.

If you've got kinks
Cum let's explore ‘em
I'm great on my knees
I know how to floor ‘em!

Have sex with me
Let your inhibitions go
Tie me up and slap me
and tell me I'm a ho.

Lick your fingers baby
Then shove ‘em up my cunt
Pump them in and out real hard
Now isn't this fun?

Rip off my panties
And shove ‘em in my mouth
Then unzip your blue jeans
And whip your dick out.

Have sex with me
Let your inhibitions go
tie me up and slap me
and tell me I'm a ho.

I like it dirty
And I like it rough
The ball's in your court now Baby,
So let's have some fun!


Lips Part
Lips part
Tongue flicks out
Darting over parched pink skin
Soft moans escape
Lips pressing together now
Elsewhere beads of sweat
Form over exposed flesh
Nails dig
Griping sheets
Back arches
Cries of pleasure
Cascading
falling
singing
Breath like fog
A melody of pleasure
Muscles tensing
Energy building
Expectation growing
The power is released
Crescendo
Spiraling into the atmosphere
Darkness and Light
The fullness of the Void
The unanswerable answered
The questions erased
All is nothing
Nothing, all
Forever
Never
Here
Nowhere
Everywhere
Eternity in a moment.

Prayer to The Goddess of Love
Goddess Aphrodite
Fill my life with love and passion
More than wilting flowers
Dying from the moment they are plucked
More than dripping candle wax
With flckering decietful light
More than genaric thoughtless romance

Bring instead a lover whose touch
is filled with a hunger never satiated
Whose gaze is a thirst that knows no quenching
and whose eyes drink me in for eternity
Whose kiss is filled with yearning
to taste, to nibble, to drink

Who knows only desire
to draw our bodies close
Pressed so tightly
that we might occupy the same space
That there would be no distance between us
and yet yearn to be closer still

Goddess Aphrodite
Mighty Venus
Lover of Gods
Mother of Gods
Grant my Petition
Love! Passion! Desire!
Venus Aphrodite,
Lastly I pray
Beautiful Goddess
To bask in the heat
But be safe from the fire!

Tricky Witch (renamed)
You are full of trickery witch
I aughta spank your little ass, bitch
I aughta tie your hands so you
can’t cast your spell
And fuck you out’a your mind
And send your soul to hell.

Burn you at the stake
Like your pussy that’s on fire for me to take
Spread your legs wide open; and devour
what’s inside
Break your broomstick over your ass
And take you for a ride.

You are full of trickery witch
I’ll teach you a lesson with a leather switch
Spread your legs and I’ll
Give you some
Then open your mouth-
‘Cause I’m gonna cumm!!!

What lie is this?
What lie holds my heart
That I feel truth when I know it false
What lie holds a lovers hand
And lets the false heart beat true
What lie is this-
From who’s capture no man can find escape
From who’s cell there is no exit
Only death
More final, more hopeless
Only death
Is darker than this lie
Called love.

Dang- you work fast.

I forgot my newest-

Faded Rose gritty-anal-sexforpay

and my under-rated:

Kinki Kiki also sex for pay, bondage, fetish

 

[impressive]

Dang- you work fast.

I'm not doing any more tonight. IMO, you would stand a better chance of getting a couple of pieces accepted if you didn't submit quite as much.

 

[cloudy]

Imp, I'll put up Possession for consideration.....it took third place in the Halloween Contest.

 

[Black Tulip]

Hi Cloudy, back online I see.

I'M IN!!!



So??? Call me childish.

 

[impressive]

Saturday morning bump. Submission tables updated. More stories (and our first few poems) have been vetted.

So, get started on your super duper mega gigundous edit. PLEASE use at least one other pair of eyes! PM me for an e-mail address when you're ready to send your (properly formatted!) file.

Illustrators: Be thinking about the approved stories/poems and if any of your portfolio "match" them. (A couple already have illustrations, which I'm assuming are vetted along with their accompanying story/poem.) Any color illustrations will need to be converted to grayscale. Send illustration files to me in JPG format.

SUBMISSIONS​

Story submissions: Posted HERE. READ 'EM! PM me your endorsements (or post 'em here). PM the author any recommended edits. Be nit picky, please. Everyone wants a quality product. It makes us all look better. To be vetted, a story needs at least 10 endorsements.

Poetry submissions: Posted HERE. READ 'EM! PM me your endorsements (or post 'em here). PM the poet any recommendations.

Art submissions: Kick ass cover art (in color) is needed as relates to the title/subtitle, plus an illustration relating to each story and perhaps other random illustrations for otherwise blank space. Keep in mind that CafePress has options for merchandising (t-shirts, mugs, stickers, tote bags, etc.) for our cover art image!

Rhinoguy has posted several grids of illustrations HERE, and would like folks to give the "coordinates" of those they endorse.

Illustrators interested in designing cover art, please review the information found here: http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/help/learn_book_covers.aspx

Let's Talk "Front Matter"

Foreward
Testimonial or introduction by someone other than the author.

Preface
Explanation of the origins & history of the book written by the book's author(s).

Introduction
Short summary or explanation of the book.

------------------------

Anyone interested in doing a draft of any/all of the above?

 

[Black Tulip]

No more than a kick-off:


Preface
New times bring forth new ways to interact. Think about the invention of the telephone for a moment. It brought people closer together and made it possible to keep in touch regardless of proximity.

The same can be said for the Internet. People from all over the planet can get in touch with each other and communicate on a number of topics. Even on such an infinite subject as sexuality.

This anthology is the result of authors who met in cyberspace. Some of us will probably never meet in real life. Yet the Internet made it possible to meet and interact with each other, although we live in different countries, on different continents.

All of us are contributors to a site with erotic stories, Literotica.com, and each of us writes with a distinctive voice on a variety of sexual preferences.
Hence the widespread coverage you will find in this collection of naughty tales.

Blah, blah, blah.

Feel free to delete it, shred it, twist it or kiss it. It's meant as a starting point, nothing more.

Yes, this is what I had in mind. About 300-600 words (1-2 print pages) -- broad strokes. Thanks, BT.

ISBN vs ISSN

Something to think about.

In order to sell in venues other than CafePress, we'll need the bar code doo-hickey for the back cover and copyright page. It costs $ to get an ISBN, whereas an ISSN (for serials) is free through the Library of Congress. I think we'd be eligible for an ISSN, but I've NO experience with this.

Discuss.

This is the definition of a serial- I don't think the anthology fits in this-

"Serials are print or non-print publications issued in parts, usually bearing issue numbers and/or dates. A serial is expected to continue indefinitely. Serials include magazines, newspapers, annuals (such as reports, yearbooks, and directories), journals, memoirs, proceedings, transactions of societies, and monographic series"

How much does it cost for an ISBN?

If it was one publication, I'd agree -- but we're talking multiple volumes, published indefinitely. I do believe we could swing it as a serial.

As far as I can tell, the ISBN is at least $350 (but I didn't dwell on the application).

EDITED: AND that would have to be paid FOR EACH volume. I don't mind only being published on CafePress, but I think if we can expand our options AT NO COST, we should do so.

Right. Free is good. It probably wouldn't hurt to apply for the ISSN. The worst that could happen is they would deny the application.

My thoughts exactly.

And, from what little I read, the application can be completed PRIOR to publication of the first volume.

 

[Black Tulip]

We have a very appropriate saying that roughly translates as:

You already have the no, all you can get is the yes.

 

[logophile]

Yehaw! I just noticed that The Offering was vetted. I'm so happy. Will Rhino's art be appearing with it? His drawing really fed me while I was writing it!

Thanks everyone!

 

[Guest]

 

[logophile]

hey all!
I actually post 9! grids of illustrations here with about 12 per grid..whaz thta...um a bit over 100...if there is something which suits a story or poem...i would be honored to pair them up. I am also open to creating pieces for written work , as time allows. As for any that HAVE been done, and ARE accepted..i can convert to grayscale and make adjusmentsto contrast etc... to make them more suitable. For example I noticed that Superman's cape did not translate well to greyscale as is.

I will also give a shot at a color cover and submit here for review.

thanks everyone...especially IMP for coordinating this project!

I have a pile of reading to DO!

Hey Rhino.

My story hasn't be vetted (it may just be too depressing) but I would love to have you come up with an illustration for it. I offered up Caressing the Veil (link's in my sig). It's a story about a man coming back across from the land of the dead for an evening with his widow, written from her perspective. If you have the time and interest, I would love to see what you can come up with. You're always so inspiring.

Yay!

Would also be interested in seeing some photography options for the cover. We have to consider the back treatment & spine as well ... over which text will be printed.

As for illustrations in approved stories/poems -- I'm assuming that those posted as illustrated on Lit INCLUDE the illustration by default in the vetting process.

 

[impressive]

Don't be afraid to offer your opinions on the poetry, people. EVERYONE'S opinion is equally valid. In fact, the non-poets' opinions might be MORE valid in this instance because those buying the book will be primarily doing it for the PROSE -- and the poems that appeal to the non-poets are more likely to appeal to the buying audience as well. (Does that make ANY sense?)

 

[impressive]

BUMP. I'd like some more discussion of this, please. Can we do this as a serial? Any experts among us?
