Hi, I'm a newbie to Literotica, and have a few questions about posting a series of short stories that I'm writing. The stories were inspired by my walks around our neighborhood with our three dogs. They're sort of Victorian in attitude, repressed desires and feelings, that, given the right stimulus and setting rise to the surface and bear fruit. Suffice it to say that my main character, dirty old man Me, manages to work his way and "thing" into every neighborhood damsel, and even one cute guy. All encounters start perfectly harmless at first, but one thing leads to another, and so on and so forth. Of course the one thing that doesn't ring true in this series are the after effects and after shocks. So far, none of the involved parties has killed off or seriously wounded our hero. Hey, I guess that's what makes it fiction. Anyway, I really enjoy the creative writing process and love thinking up erotic situations for my characters. So, there it is - a bit long winded. I feel I'm ok on developing a plot. I know I'll need some help with dialogue and description. What I plan to do is introduce my main characters to the Literotica group - which ever would be best and then submit my first story in the series.

I should mention, that I get really bored with the typical "plumbing" adult video where it's just one penetration after another, with no plot, no dialogue, bad acting, etc. That dissatisfaction was another reason I began to write short stories that could, at least in my mind, be an improvement over the existing plots in an XXX film. What I discovered, is that I like thinking up characters and erotic plots and putting it all down on "paper".

Granted, I have a lot of research to do on Literotica, to see what's been done, who's who, what advice is already out there. But, life is short, so I figured I cast my bread on the water and see what rises, while I do all the above research.

So, any comments, suggestions, advice, etc. would be gladly appreciated. Thanks. H :D
 
I do not feel qualified to give you advice of any real substance (that'll come along soon enough), but I can welcome you to the AH.

Got me & Thanks

Hi Zeb - You got me. I'm long winded. I guess what I meant to say is: Hi, I'm here. What next?
Hi G - Thanks for the welcome and kiss :kiss: . I'm sure I'll get comfortable with the Lit folks in good time. H

Well then, welcome to the AH and Lit. ;)
 
Ok, so you are writing "MILF Hunter"... so what? It's all about plot, character development and writing well. Write, Submit your stories and then post a notice in the Feedback forum and we'll tell you what you did right and wrong.

Basically you will either be able to write or you won't, I'm guessing you will be able to.

People say to write about what you know, that way it keeps its realism.

I ran mine by a volunteer editor, that was really helpful.

The only problem I find with it, is it takes so damn long.
 
Hi Jenny. Thanks for the advice. I'll go ahead and submit my first story in a few days. It will probably be the typical, bad first attempt. And I expect some scathing (but true) critical comments. But, that's ok. I'm a big boy and, after all, "That which does not kill us, only serves to make us stronger". So, I guess I'll either die or get stronger. Which will it be? H :p
 
Gotcha W - Finding the time is tough. I began my erotic series over a year ago. Life got in the way, and I'm just picking it up again. Thanks for the advice. We'll see what happens. H

You have a Life?!? That'll change, but don't worry. The sacrifice is well worth it. :D

That's my sleeping bag over in the corner, but I'm not hooked. Really. I'm not. I can quit any time I want to. ;)
 
From another newbie - welcome. When your story gets accepted, put a link to your story page in your signature to make it easy for us to get to them. We're lazy and Jenny Jackson can't always get the links for us. :)
