We all enjoy a good heist story, a murder mystery, a detective novel, a courtroom drama, police procedural, or even a prison romance. Throw in a healthy dose of eroticism and you have the First Ever Literotica Author's Crime and Punishment Story Event. Bust out your best femme fatale, your hard-drinking detective, your beleaguered public defender, your hit man, enforcer, silver-tongued con artist, drug lord, mafioso, pickpocket or prison yard enforcer and turn them loose on the Literotica Readership.

Stories are to be submitted between September 1, 2023 and September 18, 2023, with a posting date of September 25, 2023.

This event is open to all Literotica authors, whether you it's your story or five thousandth. All categories are open. The only requirement is that the story must involve a crime, whether it is the planning, commission, investigation, prosecution, or punishment. The only caveat is that while incest and non-consent stories often describe events which would be considered criminal in some jurisdictions, they do not qualify for this event. In other words, a story with incestuous sibling would not qualify, but a story where incestuous siblings commit a bank robbery would qualify.

Rules:
1. Write a story which involves a crime or criminal element.
2. Include the text "CRIME AND PUNISHMENT 2023" in the Note to Admin-field. I recommend that you copy and paste the phrase into the box.
3. Submit your story between September 1 and September 18, 2023.

This thread is to pose questions, bounce ideas, see who is participating, and frame them for crimes they probably did not commit. Gentle and increasingly less gentle prods will be sent at odd intervals to keep you on track. Now have fun and write your story about the perfect crime!
 
Hmmmmm.

Intriguing. Now that I’ve got a noir-ish character or three.
 
Maybe its me but this seems so similar to the Spillane challenge that I don't see why we'd need both. Only difference I see is this doesn't have to have the exact noir feel, but its the same genre.

I enjoyed doing the Spillane event, but I thought it should be a one-off. This is broader and I think has more potential.
 
“Let me tell you what now. I’ma call a couple a’ hard, pipe-hittin nigers, who’ll go to work on homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin’ hillbilly boy? I ain’t through with you by a damn sight. I’ma get medieval on your ass.” Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames) Pulp Fiction

“Get this through your head, you Jew mutherfucker, Mary*! You only exist out here because of me... You’re fucking warned!” Nicky Santoro (Joe Pesci) Casino

* should read you, but hey how can help but make it about Mary?

It definitely has less limitations and no one has to enter all or any of these events, it just seems like its flooding the market kind of.
I've started to wonder if at this point the author contests are becoming a detriment to the site sponsored prize contests, people only have so much time.
Maybe your idea of things like this being one offs would be a happy medium.

Joe Pesci's one character he's played in multiple mob movies annoys me to the point I wrote the meathead into a commission story and just had someone knock him out with one punch which is what would happen to him in real life.

Don't be a hater, baby. Joe was cool, he isn't acting anymore, but he was cool. "Whatever you want, Leo gets, get it, Leo Getz gets."

I'm not attacking the actor, He was cool-and funny-in a lot of movies. I just couldn't stand his character in Goodfellas and Casino. Little man syndrome gets you dead quick in that world. He was also in a Bronx Tale but in a very limited and much more lowkey

Tell you what for as many horror movies as I've seen his end in Casino was one of the most brutal death scenes you'll see. I loved it.

Question, co-authoring doesn't work here, right? I mean, you can't have the stories in both writers' lists?
Co-authored works are permitted in contests and exercises here (I have a coauthored one that won in the Valentine's Day contest one year). You can't post the same story in two different accounts, so you establish a coauthor account and put it there.
 
I've heard it said the smallest guy in the bar is usually the toughest and always the dirtiest fighter. Don' pick on them, was the advice given.
 
That goes against the spirit and intent of these anthologies, I think. Write two stories, would obviously be best.
How do you reach that conclusion? Why do you think that a coauthorship lacks in any way to a single author? Because it's too hard for you to do?

Please, boys, don't fight over little ole me. Besides, my I-wannabe co-author person said NO when I asked her.

I don't know what the other guy said, never do, but I'm sure he's taking it far too seriously. I don't know why a suggestion to write two stories should cause offence, but hey, if it does, write three.

I'll be hard put to meet another anthology deadline anyway, although I have started on my next Mickey Spillane thing, at least, so might get one in.
