Is payment in Australian dollars? If so, how do you convert that to American? (yes, I'm totally clueless)

I found a conversion site online somewhere. It's around $75.00.

If they wire you the money then it should be done by your bank automatically. If it's a check they your bank would convert it when you deposited it I believe. There may be a small 'handling fee'. :rolleyes: Not sure.

I meant what's the process of getting it exchanged into American money after it's received? (sorry, wasn't clear about that I guess)

I'm wondering what they consider graphic if the stuff printed here has been accepted. Seems kind of graphic to me. I mean, the words pussy, cock, dick, thrust, etc are still used.

It seems to me that they just don't want anything that seems to protray violence or agression. 'Banging, pounding...' etc.

I tried to get something done, but all I managed was cutting down a story from 1800 words to 730. :rolleyes:

I can't write something worth reading in less than 500 words.

:eek:

Ok, so Rumple and Sarahh convinced me. Down to 610 words by now.

:cool:

ETA: Yes! 498 words! :nana:

Just emailed three stories to them.

Two are new, one is revised and shortened.

I'll wait to see what happens.

Will their readers like AH authored stories? Will they respond with stories of their own?

And if we get any, HOW MUCH will banks charge to convert Australian dollars???

I have heard nothing since my post above.

PS. Perhaps they are still recovering from the shock of 3 Og stories?

Let's me out entirely. I can't create a grocery list in less than 500 words :D That's short even by short/short fiction standards!



Piece of cake! Just go with something like: "Stanley Kowalski was horny. Come here, Stella. Stella? Stella? Stella? Stella? ..."
 
Or better yet just plagiarise Mathgirl.

"I kiked down the dor and camed in her fase."

Action, adventure and sex all in one sentence.
 
I did email Shane, from the Aussie People mag, with a couple more questions. Following is the copy/paste of my email to them, and his response.

Dear Shane:

In response to your post on the Literotica.com's Author's Hangout-

I do have a few questions.

Are you slightly flexible on word count? I have a piece that would be, I believe, acceptable for your publication, however, the final word count on it (after some generous editing) is still slightly over 500 words. It's a short, graphic lesbian erotica piece.

Do you send copies of the publication in which the story appears to the authors as well, or is it simply the payment? I live in the USA, and getting a copy of the Australian People magazine isn't quite as easy as popping round the newsstand, but I do like to have a copy for my personal records when I publish a piece.

Also, my final question- I understand not accepting the same author for several weeks in a row, however, how far in advance of publication do you accept pieces? I generally turn out at least two stories a week (including new installations on several Celeb stories I do for other sites) but I can write flash fiction pieces in less than an hour, and have them edited and ready to be submitted in less than two days. I'd like to submit work for consideration to your publication at least once a month, but if you accept pieces well in advance, I can submit several at once and save trouble for all involved.

Thank you for taking the time to make this offer to the Litizens, and thank you in advance for the time taken to read and respond to my questions.

Sincerely-


"FallingToFly"

G'Day --------,

Word count's flexible - we can edit the stories down for space if need be, or have our art department do clever and tricksy things.

We usually like to keep submissions from the same author at least four weeks apart, to be fair.

And we can certainly send you a copy of the issue.

Feel free to send your stuff in!

Shane

So I sent in my 521 word travesty of a stroke piece. *blinks slowly in amusement* ANd now I shall wait for a response. It would be lovely if it was accepted.
 
Well, I told them I had a short piece, but more humor than erotica.
I was invited to send it anyway. I did today.

:eek:
 
I'm no longer an amateur!

Shane accepted a revised 'Breathless Stargazing' out of the three stories I sent.

What that will do to their readers' minds could be interesting...

So now I have actually sold a story for money. I have won prizes before, but this is my first professional payment.

If more of us send stories, we should keep the sex-starved Australians happy for years.

Oggy-

You might check the Publishing for Pay thread I started- I linked something in I thought was right up your loveable alley.

Thank you.

I'll have a look.

Congratulations Og! And good luck to those still trying! :rose:

I might have a go at this at some point but I'm not sure how well I'll do as the shortest thing I've writen is around 870...And that I felt was too short really...

Congrats Og!

I have just submitted my second story to Shane. I have received no word at all yet.
 
Any more of us trying for the hundred dollars Australian?

I could buy a few cans of Fosters XXXX with that.

I might even share some with the kookaburra I wrote into Breathless Stargazing...

Please! Tell me you didn't sell out! Prostituting your deathless prose for mere moolah!

Just kidding. Honest. I sent one in. Haven't heard anything pro or con, as yet.

Is this still open to people?

Also, and I know this is cheeky, could I have a quick peek at one of the stories that got accepted? I just want to check what kind of thing they're after.

I like challenges and I reckon if I can do 15 50 word stories <nods in Ogg's direction> then 500 would be an interesting step up...

Anyways. Post on here or PM me pleeeeeeeeease.

Sheila had been my girl since time began and my balls have been a riotous shade of blue since shortly after. It's not that she didn't want to, she was just a 'good' girl. A little too good if you get my meaning. She had fine long blonde hair and legs all the way up to here with norks to match. Usually I let her drive just so I can sit and watch her titties bounce around when she hits a pot hole in the road and boy do they bounce.

Sometimes, at the weekend, if I've managed to miss my ride home, or the car mysteriously won't start, Sheila's parents are broad minded and kind enough to let me sleep over. Separate rooms of course.

This one night Sheila’s Mom and Dad had left us alone for the best part of two hours while they went to the local flea pit to watch some Hollywood blockbuster or other and when they got home I was on the couch squirming and straining with the biggest hard I’d ever had and the matching pair of blueys. Sheila had let my hands wonder up under her pale green sweater while we were canoodling and my fingers had been working overtime on her nipples trying to get her hot enough to go further. That never happened.

Her sister walked in. Her older, plain, butter-wouldn’t-melt sister and she almost caught us.

To tell the truth I think she actually saw what was going on because she kept on dropping little hints. “Is it cold in here?”, “I can see you’ve perked right up.” And that kind of remark.

So as soon as my chance came, while everybody was facing away or out of the room I made my excuses and took my straining trousers up to the spare room.

No sooner had I got under the covers than my hand was on my Johnson, rubbing away the stiffness and whose head should calmly pop around the door than Jane, Sheila’s sister. Looking at me through her thick glasses and brushing the mop of black hair from her wide forehead.

“Are your balls still blue?” she asked me.

I just stared at her in shock with my hand under the covers still on my cock. “W-w-what?” I managed to stammer while keeping a nice steady rhythm going under the tent on the bed.

“Your balls…” she repeated, “are they still blue? Is Little Pete still stiff and angry?” she quipped.

“What do you mean?” I asked her, knowing exactly what she meant.

“I can help.” She said as she stepped in and quietly closed the door. “I know what my sister won’t let you have, But I have the same.”

Jane pulled up her sweater and showed me her thick nipples sticking out of her brown areola. “I have jugs.” She said and then pulled up her blue plaid skirt to show me her downy pussy “I have a nice muff.” She said. “Do me?”

I did her. Every which way.
