Some of the poets here are first rate. Laurel Hynde doesn't hit greatness with every go, but there are some amazing works on the site under her byline.
I'd love to, but she's never been receptive. Damn little Miss Fussy Pussy. Who the hell is she kidding anyway? I've met some of the dickwads she's bedded, and I think I more than surpass them in looks, charm, and gentlemanly behavior. Just you wait, she'll come crawling to me on her hands an knees someday. Good thing too, because on her knees is just where I want her.
Oh, wair this is about authors and stories. oops, my bad.
In a mood for some girl on girl fun? Try anything by Tawny T. Most especially, try this story regarding a lesbian coming of age.
I just saw plug and thought this was the anal sex thread.
Actually I'd like to plug Cloudy but as far as stories go Colly has this one (its not one of her newest ones) called Long-Distance Runner that blew me away. First non-consent/reluctant that I ever even continued reading once I figured out what it was. I was really surprised that it turned me on and it isn't tame.
For anybody whose been buried under a rock or a real new newbie Colly is Colleen Thomas.
To get slightly more specific, I have this "Torrid Trio" where I read absolutely everything they post... it is made up of Cloudy, Lucky-E-Leven and Honey123.
of course, they all look as good as they write, which doesn't hurt...
I can second Dr. Mabeuse. Although his stuff doesn't always work for me in an arousing sense, there's no denying the effort and care he puts into his writing. He crosses genre's and is very dynamic. There's likely something for almost everyone in his body of work.
Carsonshepherd's mastery of dialogue and deft handling of complex emotional situations in Between Want & Need To was a heavy inspiration to me in the early stages of writing my latest, "Goodbye, La La Land". His recent offering What Chocolate Mousse Can Do is equally outstanding, and has the added benefit of actually doing it for me in a sexual way. It's sort of an exquisitely definitive handling of a very common female fantasy--watching two guys get it on together.
I read everything new that Green_Gem writes. Sexy sexy, stuff, and there's always something a little bit different about each of her stories.
Omni has some nice work in her list of stories--most noteably for me, Callis. This story has a huge amount of tension and beautifully fresh sexual language and expressions in it--both of which can be hard to find in erotic stories.
My darker side has found inspiration in the INSANE works of Speechmaster and Conquered--neither of whom are very prolific, but they're both still around... Chapters 1 through 6 of "Slave to Politics" by Speechmaster and the entirety of "Denial" by Conquered are absolutely unforgettable, even when Denial is scaring the shit out of me.
Recent individual stories that I've read and enjoyed greatly include LustyLovers' halloween contest entry, Tricked & Treated, which at one point in the story made me cry.
Varian P.'s latest chapter in her Changed Girl series, Vaughn's Diary, speaks to my own crazy-dark Femdom fantasies like few other stories do.
And although for some reason, some people in the AH saw fit to put this one down, Things that Go Hump in the Night by Stefan J. was a story I found to be very enjoyable and sweetly sexy.
Anyway, I'm always more than happy to plug my favorite stories for those who are interested. These are all stories or authors who have touched me in one way or another, be it emotionally, inspirationally, or purely in a "force my hand" kind of way.
Not too long ago I had the priveledge of doing some prereading on a work by Couture. I was impressed with it, and decided to give some more stories a whirl. Not all are in my genre, but all are quality work, especially those with original artwork.
If you are in the mood for something light and fun, with a pretty strong D/S ovetone, I highly reccomend this author.
There's a very old one by Night-Wolf called "Destruction of Innocence" in the Mind Control category that was one of the first works here that prompted me to start writing spank of my own.
