This is in the tradition of the title looking for a story theme. The only one that comes to mind is rimming a girl named Dawn. What do you think? :cool: :devil: ;)
 
I like the reinterpretation of Crack... It could've been so easy just to go to some anal story.
 
Having her crack mentally, morally, emotionally, instead of just being a story about anal sex.

Well, that is a bit deeper....of course, a double entendre is possible. Have part of her "moral collapse" include anal sex. :cool: ;)

The main thing is that involves a cracking of some sort and a woman named Dawn.

Oh, with a name like that, could she perhaps be a Native American? That would be very sexy.

As long as it doesn't mean crack cocaine...well, then again, that could be part of a breakdown.

Just so you know, Dawn isn't a "native" name.

And most of my friends are named Annie, Cheryl, Sabrina, Christina, Honey (yes, that's her name), Megan, etc. All are friends of mine; all live on the reserve.

Stereotypes. *sigh*

No offense intended, seriously. Just wondering. It sounded like a lovely name and one that might possibly be so. I have no real experience with how Native Americans name their children. That is why I asked, to find out.
 
Doesn't necessarily not have to be a Native American. Perhaps she was captured by white settlers. Some thought that she would be raised properly in the "Christian" way, but her new "adopted" brothers and fathers and other men about town aren't so moral about it.

Dawn could be a new Christian name born of their ignorance :)

I could see local Mormon boys letting their gonads overwhelm their religious scruples long enough. Particularly with a girl who has some kind of exotic beauty. Doesn't even have to be Native American. Maybe native Brazilian and they know about that, but her parents want to give her a name that fits their idea of "Indians".
 
It could be crack as in "wisecrack," and she's a chick who goes around putting everyone down with clever one-liners. Everyone hates her, but she amuses herself to no end.

Then one day, she meets her match: an equally snide and clever dude (perhaps named "Don"), who keeps up with her wisecracks. At this point, either:

a) she falls in love with him, turns nice, and they live happily ever after
b) he outdoes her in the wisecracking department, reduces her to tears, seduces her, and then she falls in love with him, at which point either:
b1) he leaves her, and she despondently takes her own life, or maybe becomes a nun or
b2) she begs him to stay, and gradually wins his love, and they live happily ever after.
 
Carnies would be entertaining, but hard to be turned on by. Too many dumb puns are possible.

Pretty much how anyone else names their kids. My first name is Sherry, my SO's name is Kelly, his brother's name is Richard...like I said, there really aren't any "native" names anymore. Haven't been for a long time. Last names will sometimes be remnants, but not like most seem to think (btw: plains tribes were the only ones that used names like Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, etc.)

I'm not offended, no worries, I just get a little tired of the overworked cliches I see all the time, that's all.

Ah, okay. That makes sense. :eek:
 
Do you have any experience with Native culture that may lend itself to a story involving a disconnected young woman being raised by white homesteaders?

What tribe/nation btw?

no, not really, other than the observation that if she was raised by a white couple from a young age, she would most likely be white in every way but race. There is nothing that makes you intrinsically native other than the culture you are raised in.

I'm Choctaw, but my SO is Ojibway, and we live on an Ojibway reserve. :)

Years ago, I had a buddy whose g/f was named Dawn. His standard joke was something along the lines of: "I slept in today, but still woke up at the crack of Dawn"...which was usually followed up by a slap from her, but she was grinning when she slapped him. :D
 
You could do something with a drug deal.

I just don't like the story lines because there is too many complications with drugs- addiction, loss, disease, etc. Maybe the woman is a drugged up prostitute who is picked up by a guy who decides to save her. Of course he is having sex with her the whole time so his noble intentions are a little twisted.

I was thinking that more along the N. American lines, that she would have to be captured later in life- definitely 17 or 18 already. (And for all the people who see seventeen and jump on it, NO SEX WITH MINORS!). That way she is more accustomed to a more communal style of living and not associated well with the rigors of Colonial Protestant privacy and structure.

It's possible, but there'd be a ton of research involved. She wouldn't speak the language, would try to escape at every opportunity, and something that most forget: native women were just as likely to fight back and kill you as a native man - many were warriors. Failing that, she'd have a go at killing herself.

If it's written honestly, without all the tired, disrespectful and downright untrue stereotypes, cool. Not many are capable of that, though.
 
It doesn't need much work, unless you want to pull it beyond one category.

Throw it in nonconsent, and the characters never need to speak with her, they just tie her up and give it a go. It would be sad to see a story with such potential go that route, but at least its a new take on the NC/R category.
 
The first idea I had when I read the title was a dominatrix called Dawn. The crack would be the crack of her whip.

The name Dawn is taken from the baby boomer era, when free love was in full swing, which included taking place in the great outdoors.
Usually at a romantic setting, watching the sun rise (at dawn).

Hey, it's better than naming your child Moon Unit.
 
It's very fashionable nowadays to go out showing ass crack.
Why not a story about a cute little tease named Dawn, or if you go darker, you can make it a peer pressure story, where everyone does crack, eventhough "Crack is wack." (Whitney Houston)
