CALLING ALL CREATIVE WRITERS

[Bramblethorn]

Meghan Markle is hot as hell, but, she's outta her damn mind. LOL.

I'd happily stick a ball gag in her mouth for a weekend and then send her back to Harry. LOL.

On one hand I'm baffled that LC's reply to this got deleted but the original is still up.

On the other, I guess it's good when rapey dudes go on the record like this so that everybody else knows them for what they are.

Looking at the back catalogue they’ve got Basil Brush, David Dickinso, Wogan and Victoria Coren Mitchell.
if someone can’t create an erotic fantasy out of that lot………

oh

just me then

Victoria and Basil for sure.

 

[Kumquatqueen]

Victoria and Basil for sure.

No bestiality allowed on Lit.
Boom, boom!

 

[AlinaX]

To be fair, my fantasy was mostly Victoria explaining something earnestly while Basil laughed inanely. There may have been some cuddling.

Sure there is. Call a dog a were-dog and suddenly its somehow not a human screwing an animal.
If its furry, and its fucking and the reader is aroused its....
Not sure what's more ridiculous, the site's denial of what they're cool with here(which can be anything they want it to be) or the way people deny what their fantasy kinks are.

Personally I would avoid political figures like the plague because no matter the content or intent its going to whip up the unhinged people who live to be 'triggered'

I'm not the fan fic type in general, only one I'd be interested in I know would never fly and that's to write stories where professional rapists, I mean football players get found carved up and eviscerated in very creative ways.

First of all, I'm not going to be writing for those British TV people who started this. Are the unhinged people you referred to the political figures themselves or their supporters? If I did write that "Trump" story it would not be directly about him nor would the name of the MC be anything like his. Nor would it be in the same country.

So much for the Basil Brush persona being recognised.

If someone has a thing for a braying buck-toothed glove puppet in a waistcoat, that's their business (I'd argue for Toys & Masturbation over Celebs&FF if posted here...)

Toys & Masturbation if it's just a puppet, maybe Nonhuman if it comes to life?

Anyone fisting wild animals should be reported. It's just wrong in every way

Don't bother reporting it to the UK police because they'll just say it was a 'drunken prank' and 'they'll grow out of it'

So... were-Corgis? A Queen? Her pedo son, and that guy's nephew strutting around in a Nazi costume?

Seems to me the truth is stranger than fiction, sometimes.

So how about the RSPCA?

They offer payment, as well as writing credit on the show. I was challenged to stay within the 1,000 word limit, but it was interesting to research the celebrity they chose for me to write about and develop an erotic story (third person narrative) from that.

The premise of the program is that the pre-selected celebrity reads the story aloud for the first time on the show, and puppets then re-enact the story. They limit the story to only three characters, including the celebrity so that there aren't too many puppets and puppeteers involved.

It was an interesting experience that I would consider doing again if requested.

Thanks for the info - I'm still not wild about the concept but good to hear they're paying their writers, hopefully at decent rates.

 

[Rustyoznail]

Glad you got something out of it at let's say $0.10 per word and a writing credit. Could open doors.

Just two cents: The total lack of replies or anything after day one from the original poster says they aren’t being open.

Not that I’d have done it anyway, but if I had wanted to, I personally view their silence as a dealbreaker. They’re separating participants from the pack, if you ask me.

Oh yeah, they're totally playing people. Even if we assume they're ''just'' not offering very good payment and trying to take advantage of someone who wants to make a name for themselves as a writer.

"Decent" is a matter of perspective. Let's just say that you could get more winning a monthly contest on Literotica.

FWIW:

1000 words is roughly 8 minutes of airtime. According to WGGB, agreed minimum rates for sketch comedy writing (closest I could find to this brief) are "£118/minute" (BBC) or "£217 for 3-4 minutes" (TAC/S4C - that's a Welsh public broadcaster). Those are only two organisations, but they give some idea of the industry norm. Let's go with the lower number: minimum rate of roughly £500 (USD 600) for 1000 words of material.

Literotica monthly contests pay I think $150 for first place? In which case it sounds like these people are paying about a quarter of WGGB rates. That's a very rough calculation and I'm not familiar with the industry, but it certainly doesn't sound like a generous rate.

I know we're doing this for the fun of it, but I'd be concerned about undercutting people who are trying to make a living as screenwriters. Put it this way, I doubt RDF are discounting their products for the love of TV-making.
