I planned NOT to start another contest ideas thread where I was almmost the only poster.

Especially since I do not have surplus Earth Day ideas to dump here.

In fact, I'm starting this thread because I NEED an idea ( or two, or three) or I might never write again. Which some might think is a good thing.

No ideas yet.

All I know is I don't want to stretch any of my current series/characters to fit the Earth Day themes - too artificial, and too demanding on readers to pick up the background mid stream.

I did have two titles flash across my brain :

"Dog Park"...except I don't own a dog, and my town has no dog parks anyhow.

"Field and Stream"...but I don't fish or hunt.

Feel free to use them if you wish.
 
Earth Day... I have an uncompleted story buried on my computer somewhere that I'd like to finish one day, but I'm not that interested in the "holiday contests" this year... So far, I have five older women who have been friends since college. They're a close-knit group of friends, consider themsevles Wiccan, and are in a coven together. While it had been mostly "fun" and just a way to hang out, etc., in the tale's current year they end out summoning Gaea, the Greek Goddess of Earth. She is the supreme Goddess that they have worshiped (or tried to) since their college days. Of course, lots and lots of mythical lesbian sex takes place out in the woods. ;)

While I'd hope that no one takes this idea 100%, it could be revamped with any number of Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Celtic, or other deities.


Maybe one day I'll write a sequel to my Hike story, though it hasn't been too popular.



Other ideas could be an Earth Day ralley, be it a current year one or the founding one back on April 22, 1970. :) Many ways to write up a story involving an Earth Day ralley. Perhaps the people are camping at the site of the ralley? Maybe it's only a day event? Nudist colony celebrating earth day? Maybe 1970 "wasn't" the first ever thought of Earth Day? Maybe some free lovin' hippies did it a year, or two or three, before hand. ;)

I'll see if more ideas come to me!
 
Might as well show my ignorance here too, someone might answer me ;) - what exactly is "earth day"?
 
It's an American made-up holiday that has begun to spread world wide. (I guess it hasn't reached those "down under" yet? ;)) It's an earth awareness day.

Keep your eyes open in Author's Hangout for an "official" thread about this holiday contest, too. So far I only see the V-Day one (still) up.

Hell I'm firmly planted in America and I've never gotten really into the whole Earth Day thing. But I'm trying to come up with a bunch of ideas to throw into the fire here....I hope! If my muse will cooperate, that is.
 
We don't have Earth Day.
We have Clean Up Australia Day; National Tree Day; National Recycling Week....

I've been thinking, Starrkers. This is ripe for a sci-fi thing with the characters living on the planet Zepton or somewhere and celebrating Earth Day in some perverse fashion or other. ;)
 
I love a story where two people meet, who have totally different world-views, yet find each other irresistible. Despite their differences? Or because of them? Sometimes the difference is what causes the excitement. We just don't know.

Anyway, in this situation, I picture an earthy-crunchy, Birkenstock-wearing, NPR-listening, recycling, Ed-Begley type dude who is totally into ecology and saving the planet. And he bumps into (through some sort of "meet-cute," maybe at a Starbuck's) a corporate, conspicuously-consuming, SUV-driving, mega-yuppie type chick who thinks the world is there to feed her own sense of cuteness and importance.

(note that the more conventional view would be for the dude to be the evil corporate type and the chick to be the hippie type; so we switch it to capitalize on the strangeness factor.)

Anyway, they bump into each other and fall madly in love, or at least madly in passion. After a time, or a few times anyway, they realize that they have some major philosophical differences, and need to either go their separate ways, or learn to deal with them.

How do they do this? Maybe they break up over the irreconcilable differences, and they soon realize, lost and alone, that they can't live without each other. Or maybe they do all they can to make it work, and succeed.

But, more likely, they part, find other people who are more in keeping with their own philosophies, and do their best to live fulfilling lives. But, of course, they can't. They need each other. Years pass. Then, one day (Earth Day, of course, ten years later), they bump into each other again, each having gone through hell, missing each other and trying to search for meaning in their empty lives, and realize that they were made for each other. They finally see the wisdom in each other's way of life, and forge a better, more meaningful, existence, combining the best of both worlds.

Or some such nonsense. Worse bullshit had been made believable. Why not this?

I think it was actually a UN initiative, not American.....
 
I have a story I wrote while sitting through an extraordinarily boring environmental politics course (professor's fault, not the subject matter). It's called "Gaian Theory". Not so much to do with earth day, but the earlier mention of the goddess brought it back. Only five votes on it in a couple of months. 5.00 rating, but not many takers, I guess.
 
This is a particularly hard one for me to get into. I think we have a number of possibilities.

1. You could do an erotic horror about nature taking its revenge, you know like a dryad that is killing lumberjacks one by one.

2. You could do a BDSM story about a group of girls/guys who chain themselves to trees to keep lumberjacks from chopping down the trees.

3. Any sort of camping+incest is probablya winner though I already tried that and didn't win.

4. I was thinking a loving wives or erotic encounter with the theme of recycling+lingerie to get her hubby excited about saving the planet. You know some kind of enviromental take on the whole greet your man wearing nothing but seran wrap, perhaps with can holders (those 6 thingies your supposed to cut so ducks don't die)

I like both of these. :) Last year I wrote an Earth Day story involving a tree that came to life, but posted it in Non Human instead of Erotic Horror. It wasn't really "horror". :)
 
Seems these contests are won by stories that have only a loose connection to the theme anyway.

Sometimes true, but the Earth Day theme is valid if the sex takes place outdoors, or in a tent or on a farm.

Some ideas:

1. Camping - frequently used, needs a different twist. How about making love in a tent slung in mid-air between two trees or a tent pitched on a platform in a tree.

2. Druid/Witch/Wizard in touch with Earth Spirits.

3. Tree hugging/protection.

4. Defending some nature against development.

5. Defending animals/birds against hunters.

6. Gardening, growing your own fruit and vegetables.

7. Hiking/walking/riding nature trails.

8. Recycling.

9. Campaigning for Nature

10. Almost anything that takes place in a National Park (Exit, pursued by a bear).

Oooh - logging protesters sometimes live for months in slung tent-hammocks like that. Their friends and SO's come and visit with everything they need, and climb up for visits.
No reason a logger couldn't happen by - they're good at climbing :)

I like the idea about BDSM with protesters who chained themselves to trees, too :)

My only original idea is 'sex on the compost pile':"
"He licked my ear, and then entered the ear canal with his tongue to fuck me there, too. I squirmed underneath him in ectasy, nearly losing my grip on the fairly recently-added banana peel that I was slapping hard against his muscular butt."

Someone over on AH suggested "Aluminum Recycling" (facetiously, I'm pretty sure), and it did get me thinking:
"The hydrogen released by the electrolytic refining process rose towards the flue only to ignite in mid-air, a bright blossom of flame safely burning off the dangerous flammable gas. Rod thrust his upper fork drive lever forward smoothly, and the brimming crucibile tilted. Liquid metal glowed white-hot as it flowed silkily into the ingot molds; and the many small sprue-holes squirted bright jets of liquid overflow which were quenched by the air and fell back onto the molding sand as bright, tiny beads."

Thank god you mentioned the chained-up tree-huggers :) :) :)

I have a couple of ideas in my head for stories but I'm not sure how many I'm actually going to get going. It all depends on how quickly I write and/or if my muse cooperates. My latest work in progress is taking forever since Ms. Muse has decided to be quite the slippery little thing lately! :)
