Did you take a left at the fork in the road?

[A Desert Rose]

I've seen lots of "how did you know" .... "when did you know".... "how old were you when"... and I even posted on a few of them... long, long ago. So many times that even I don't want to read that tale again.

What I'd like to know is

how did you find Lit?

 

[graceanne]

I was googling for free erotic stories. LOL

 

[jadefirefly]

A friend sent me a link to a rather simple-looking, but HUGE, collection of erotic stories. Some of 'em sucked. Some of 'em didn't.

I didn't search on the internet much, because I always feared getting some sort of nasty crap, viruses and such, from websites. Then someone directed me to this site! Yay!

(And then I lost track of the place for 7 months or so. Oops. Bad me.)

My last boyfriend knew I was on a search for erotica and linked me to Literotica, where I enjoyed tons of stories. Eventually I wanted to write my own, so I made an account, and then I discovered the Story Ideas forum and got this idea in my head that I ought to try to make it to 1,000 posts... it was downhill from there for a couple years

I'm just thrilled I'm not the only Oregonian in this forum. LOL

 

[AvaAdore]

Linked from a link my ex sent me.

 

[volvin]

If memory serves I was looking for porn when a bad link took me to here. Which is when I found out under the right circumstances words are more erotic then pictures or video.

beem here ever since 4-5 years on and off all lurking in the BDSM forum among other things.

 

[m wisdom]

I was looking for stories, and after a while I found the forum.

 

[A Desert Rose]

Well, unlike most of you or all of you, I wasn't looking for stories or erotica, at all.

About 5 years ago, I played backgammon at a game site. Met a few men there who mentioned this site to me and suggested I read here. I never did, until I met someone who became special to me. When He suggested I read here, I came and checked it out.

I spent most of my initial time on the GB. But eventually learned, (after being called a stupid Republican cunt) that I just didn't have the skin for a place like that. And being in a D/s relationship... this was the natural place for me, anyway.

I do/did write and submit some lousey poetry. And will again as soon as my heart breaks again.

And that's my story.

 

[Daddyslilpet]

A good friend of mine sent me a link to Lit. I too started on the GB but wasn't comfy there, so I made the BDSM forums my home here. I do visit the playground from time to time too though.

Mostly these days I just lurk.

 

[Recidiva]

I have a blog on MySpace and I do some online roleplaying. I was writing fiction and roleplay stuff and I wrote a character that I thought was too hot for either MySpace or roleplay and I didn't want to post to either place. I did a search for erotic fiction and found Lit.

 

[shy slave]

The vanilla man I was dating realised I was a submissive. I had never heard of D/s and had not considered BDSM may be something I would have an interest in.
He did a search and found Lit, Castle Realm and a few other sites to show me before broaching the subject that I may be a submissive.

He was very sweet and open. He explained that it wasn't his thing but thought it may be mine. He has remained a good friend ever since.

 

[bad kitty]

I strangely ended up here straight from a "Babycenter" type board. Really strange I know, but I never went back to any other board. All my kinks and perversion came flooding back after finding this place.

 

[Kierae]

My husband enjoys reading erotic stories and has been on the board for a few years. I prefer communities/chat and have lurked for quite awhile before posting finally in the community I felt most comfortable in (BDSM).

 

[RJMasters]

Geez I don't even know if I remember. I think I found Lit through a google search, looking for some old sites I wanted to visit on D/s.

 

[His_pita]

One of my dear friends gave me the link to Lit when I was complaining about how boring and slow the board we were playing on was. I have had three different ID's since first coming here. But, this one I have now is a keeper.

 

[Red Sonja]

There was a free erotic story site, that then changed to subscription only so... Dh and I went on a search and were lucky enough to find this. I've been reading the stories for years now... but only recently got permission to play on the boards. YAY!

 

[Marquis]

My ex.

 

[insatiable_pet]

My friend, aithne123, found it it and gave me the link sometime ago.

 

[Hecate]

I came here so long ago I can't actually recall how I got here though I seem to remember the stories first before I even noticed there was a forum.

What I do recall though is that there was basically only two or three forums at most (I *think* it was only the general board and the original role play section)

*lol* this becomes awfully obvious when you look at my registration number - so I shall spare you all further rambling about good old times

[Rrrosyn]

I was story hopping from one story site to another. Someone out there had a Lit link on their story site.

It's been an adventure though. Short times here on the boards, my entire discoery of needing a D/s relationship. Meeting two men from the chatroom. One was a May-Sept fling and the other lasted 15 months. Reading, writing, being poorly edited by friends, hating my work, taking it down, putting it back, and finally deciding I just don't care anymore.

And get the connect the dots... Met A in Lit chat, he convinced me to write and chill in another Lit chatroom where I met B who took me to a computer game where he dumped me and I met C... who I am happily engaged to.

Go Lit for helping me find my man... kinda.

 

[FurryFury]

I was researching BDSM.

[Sybarist]

Found lit during a Google search for erotic stories after the original free erotic story site I visited went offline without my consent

This one is WAY better than that first one ever was though.....

 

[Etoile]

I actually used the story site for a LONG time before I ever noticed the forum! And then when I came onto the forum in 2002, to my surprise I already had an account. So I had originally discovered it in 2000 but not been active. I don't remember how I found the site originally, though.

 

[redelicious]

I was looking for a decent online place to buy a vibrator. My search led me to Jane's Guide, which btw is an excellent resource. They have reviews of all sorts of adult sites, including erotica. I read a review of Lit and decided to take a look. Eventually I made my way to the playground. I lurked on the BDSM boards for a long time before I got the nerve up to post.
