MadLibs

Do any of you remember Madlibs? I used to love them but have not seen them in years.

I mention this because I think Madlibs could solve an issue I have. I have received feedback from readers of my stories, that they thought my story was great except would be even better if only one of my characters was a little different: the man/woman should have been <<fill in ethnicity here>>, her hair color should be <<fill in hair color>>, etc.

Okay, who gives a crap about these details? But then I do want to please the reader (a good reason to write after all).

For one of my readers, who has given me some great feedback, I decided to name the characters in my next story with names that he chose. That's been fun for me.

I have never liked reading statistics in my stories. "She walked in the room proudly thrusting out her 38 double D breasts…" or "…he whipped out his 7 and three quarters inch dick…" as if the narrator had a measuring tape handy. I get why someone might get off on particular sized assets but really having the exact measurement kills the narrative. So with this Madlib idea in mind perhaps we could get around this problem. Unless the plot was specifically about the size or hair color or skin color or shoe size (whatever), I could imagine a web site that could ask the reader a set of questions before she reads, then put the answers in the story text.

I'm sure such a website exists, but I would love to see that on Literotica. It could be a lot of fun.
 
Another thought is to just leave out all the details that people might want to fill in and try to set it up so it's ambiguous for the reader. The reader gets a thrill from sexual situations with people of a certain ethnicity. If I make the names ethnically neutral then the reader could imagine whatever he likes. That's really hard to do sometimes.

I love MadLibs, and they still have them. My kids get them all the time. :D I think this would be hard to do on a site like this. MadLib Porn. . . that's a new genre alright. :D
