I am looking for a perspective that best tells a story to the majority.

What do you know? or is you opinion?

(A) Would readers prefer an actual true version of the events that occured in my life?

(B) Would readers prefer a true story enhanced by more erotic exciteing features that did not happen but could have?

(C) Or is it in my best interest to base the story on what happened yet make it of a fantasy nature?

The basic story is about a time when my brother, his wife Ann, another close friends couple Todd, Lea, the wife Jen, and I let a simple card game evening get out of hand. To be brief my brother, his wife, lea, and I were all earnestly pushing the situation. My wife and Todd were not into it as much.
The Game after several hours of drinking and coaxing became a wager.
The Basic bet was the winner with the high hand would be able to have at thier desire the looser of the other sex as to do with as they wished private (another conected room with no doors just behind a wall) or on display. The longer for five minutes or the length of the next hand. This also forced a rotation cause two persons were always out of the bet for the next hand.

There are some real good sexual highlights this is just an example.
****************************************************
Example A

The wife was the winner of the hand. Along with Todd being the looser. We were all excited to find out what would they do? My wife chose the other room. They both entered the darkend area and disapeared around the wall.
The rest of us played quietly so we could hear the activities. We did not hear much just an occasional voice. We finished our hand quickly and made no disturbance to notify Todd and Jen. As if we all discussed spying no one disturbed the situation.
I pointed at Ann and with a hand motion pointed to the next room nodding yes to her to peek in on them. Ann quietly moved to the corner of the wall and peered around it at Todd and Jen.

Ann turned back to us rolling her eyes shaking her head in disbelief. Ann spoke, "they are sitting two feet apart just wispering and it ain't nothing sexual."
Lea standing up moves toward the room facing Todd and Jen hands on hips. says in a not so pleasant voice, "You two are pathetic. I am here to notify you your prison term is expired best of luck to both of you next hand."
Todd and jen both exclaimed it was thier time to do as they wished. We all just looked at each other.

Example B

Ann paused for a moment, became bolder and swung her top half of her body around the corner. Turning back to us she smiled a grin and said, "they were a bit too busy kissing to notice her."
Lea standing up moves toward the room facing Todd and Jen hands on hips. says in a low subtle voice, " ehm Time has passed give some one elese a turn. You want more the you too will have to earn it?"
Todd and Jen Blushing entered the room a little awkward and quietly sat back down.

Ann peering around the corner Paused. Turning back to us motioned for us all to come view. Then putting her finger to her lips she viewed them once more.
We all quietly trying in our drunken state not to laugh ventured to the opening. Peeking around the opening we shifted our presence into the dim lighted room.
I saw My wife laying on her back on the couch eyes closed legs spread and Todd's Face burried between her legs kneeling on the floor.
Todd stoped for a moment as we entered the room. Aware of our presence he licked a few more times and then slowly backed away.
Jen opened her eyes stunned at all of us viewing on said "Who is next?" Spreading her lips with her fingers.
As we parted the room Jen kissed me and mentioned just how horny she is right now. That I best stop this game and Fuck her right now or who knows what could happen if I wait.

The question has been asked many times. There is no correct answer. The problem is two fold: The writer puts down on paper his rememberance of the event so is it true or not is a matter of conjecture. And many stories on Lit and other sites which claim to be "true" are entirely fiction.

Therefore, it makes no difference if the story is true, not true or as you, the writer, recall it. It is still fiction.

My advice is just change all the names so there are not legal problems and just write the story from whatever POV that works best.

Are you saying People can be dishonest on the Net?

The names are changed.

Do you like the bland aproach that seems to be real? The could have been real? Or the Give me a break it most likely is not real?
 
I like the stories that I read to seem real. That usually happens when a writer starts with something they personally have experienced or have seen enough of it to give thema good sence of how to write about it.

Out of your three options you wrote...

The first ofcourse seems more likely...since those were the two that weren't comfortable withthe idea to begin with.

However...your imagination could go from there...

It could happen that way and the game goes on....maybe the next duo are more into it and the sexual tension and exitement in the room starts to rub off the pair who weren't. As time goes on they canstart to regret not taking advantage of a really good opportunity to mess around. (This can be the case with a lot of people anyway and i speak from experience on that.) Another opportunity can arrise with another hand of the game...maybe not those two together..but maybe so...whatever seems hot to you... that way when you write it is brought across as hot.
For me, stories that have a good element of "realistic truth" to them and yet also move beyond that ina very natural way are the most fun to read. This is also a story idea that would work with a bit of humor.
Let us know if you write it...i'll be interested in reading it.

Thanks mck

This is a twist I did not think of that could realy lift the story and keep it real at the same time.

I prefer a real story to read my self too. I just don't like it when nothing happends to climax the story. I wondered if I was alone?
 
True life stories are bears to write. In the end no one knows how truthful you are being but yourself if even you do. Perhaps she was "that dynamite Blonde" but then again maybe she was just blonde and not quite dynamite, heck maybe she was dirty blonde and a little on the skinny side, come to think of it maybe she was neither. Does it really matter?

To you, the writer, it might if you are wishing to factually relate something, but to your reader, they have already either suspended their disbelief and are taking it as fact or they already think you're full of it. The question becomes moot, the answer is as variable as writers and stories.

Fact being stranger than fiction is a trueism. Some of the wildest stories you read may be nearly blow by blow accounts while some of the plain stories are purely what the writer wishes would have happened; if he hadn't got too drunk or been too shy or whatever. For the purpose of relating a story I think you are much better off basing it on the reality, but not allowing yourself to be painted into a corner by the actual events.

If at the point of greatest erotic tension Cindy Q turned green and barfed on the carpet I think you are better off using some poetic liscence to keep her lunch down ;) So much of a story is what you the writer make of it. If it drags relating the build up, cut some of it. If it ends up going to fast, add some teasing. Take the kernal of truth and mesh that with the expectations of the readership and you should do just fine.

a) Yes, true version because its more realistic.
b) no exotic enchancements the more exotic stuff you put in the more unbeliavable the story looks. The less arousing for me
c) No fantasy please

I am most often turned on by stories that are as realistic as possible without various "exotic" stuff The reason for that is I can more easily relate to real stuff and its easier to imagine somthig that could happen in my life .
 
Thank you mighty and colly you both actually helped considerably. More than you know thanks.
