How does collaborative writing work on this site?

[AAnderssen]

Hi I’m Alexi and I joined this site er... 5 mins ago. I’ll have some story ideas that I thought it might be fun to co-write / collaborate on. I’m into the whole bimbofication thing for the moment. I’ve written one bimbofication so Troy and is like to write a couple more. If anyone would be interested then please message me.or if you know somebody... all messages / info appreciated. Alexi

Having written several collaborative stories with two different writers, it's important to understand what the "click" is between the two of you. In my case, it was because we both liked each other's established characters, and wondered what would happen if we put them together.

The mechanics of the writing interchange need to be sorted out (with both my collaborators, we each wrote about a thousand words, passed it over the table and said, carry on - we wrote off each other, without a pre-conceived story line or handover notes).

Then you need to decide whose account it will go up under. We put the full story up on one account, and a short version with just the first scene and a story link on the other - coordinated that bit with Laurel, the site editor.

It worked well for my collabs and I, but I suspect collaboration isn't for everyone. My suggestion would be to get a few of your own stories up first, and once you have settled into your erotica style, then look around.

I'd really like someone who knows the subject better to take a story I started and finish it, but I haven't tried terribly hard to find anyone.
I'm guessing it could be published on both accounts? Or maybe a new account that both writers can access? Or would that require disclosure of personally identifiable information?

A story only gets published on one account.

But yes - a new account that is shared by both writers will work. There are several writers I know who do that. So far as the site is concerned, it's a single account owner though - any access sharing would go on between the two writers, sharing the password.

I second this suggestion. Publish some stories of your own first. Establish your voice and your style. Read other authors and find someone whose style will mesh with yours, then invite them to read your stories and see if they agree. Approach a collaboration from a point of mutual admiration. Nobody wants to carry someone else's project.

I've done one collaboration. I think it worked because we both knew and enjoyed the other's style going into it

Sabb and I collaborate on stories posted here. We use a separate account--Shabbu. He contacted me based on similar styles and issues he saw. All of the actual collaboration, until it's submitted here is down between us outside of Literotica.
