a thread to post a little more about your story than the one line blurb on the index page (think back cover of a book) and reviews of those posted stories (think back cover again) I think this will be helpful for readers looking for certain types of stories:)

Reviews

You know what else would be nice? If people who do a lot of reading here would publish a digest of what they've read and what they think of it: a series of brief reviews. Anyone could do this; you don't have to be an expert, and I've seen it done on other erotic story sites.

After awhile the good and fair reviewers rise to the top, just like in real life, and their opinion becomes worth something. People looking for particular stories can seek out certain reviewers who specialize in the genre, and if you consistently add reviews, the thread will stay alive for as long as the reviewer continues it.

Now I'm catching on

I suppose you could offer more detail about your stories in your biography.

do you mean like hard copy or like in the "reviews" section? Basicly that's what I'm hoping this thread will be. I suppose I should start.

Self-promotion

Oh, I get it Sweet, you want us to promote things here. Okay, I'll go. I've got 2 relatively new stories posted. Both can be accessed by clicking on the link at the bottom of this post:

A Game of Dress-Up is a straightforward story of a nice young lady whose school work leaves her no time for socializing. Her sex life consists of dressing as a slut and masturbating, until one night she's discovered by a surprise visitor who mistakes her for the real thing and treats her as such.

The story continues a theme I've been interested in for some time: the uniquely female fantasy of being forced to act like a slut and the strange erotic mixture of excitement, shame, and humiliation that results. The story was written for a girl who has just this fantasy, and she edited it to make sure I got the girl's reactions right.

The Experiment, Chapter 5 This is the next to last chapter in the novella about a woman's participation in a mysterious sexual experiment. In this chapter Zoe has to search for a lover she's never met in a museum full of people. I tired to make her search as erotic as the payoff. English Lady thought it was great.

Thanks Dr. M. That was perfect!

Now I'll go.

What I'm shooting for is good quality porn, not "erotic fiction" so please read it as such.

THE STRANGER: My first posted story. Just a little story about a girl forced into fulfilling her fantasy of having sex with a total stranger. (See my sigline for excerpt) If you enjoy being taken from behind by your lover with his hand over your mouth while you imagine that he's someone who's face you've never seen- well you might enjoy this story

OUR FAVORATE GAME: If you like sex rough dirty and nasty and stories that get right to the point, read this. If you like a little bit of tease and anticipation before your rough nasty dirty sex, read OUR FAVORATE GAME: VARIATION. Or if you want read them both and let me know which one you prefer (and why).

TRUTH OR DARE: Accidental first time lesbian encounter in front of a group of friends. What more is there to say? This one is very short and probably not my best effort, but I'd say its not half bad.

TXT MSSG: Incestuous Rollplay. I happen to think this one is pretty steamy. Here is an excerpt:

"Happily, I crawl up sideways on your lap, my legs curled beside you on the cushion. You run your hand softly over the top of my head and down my long auburn pigtails. I sit in silence, happily letting you pet me gently and lovingly. This is the moment I have been waiting for all day. To be next to you, smelling your soft masculine scent. To be in your strong capable hands. To feel at once so fragile and so protected. I feel tiny but you are big enough to care for us both."

This story is about exploring taboos, pushing limits and powerplay. I tried to start slowly and move into the hard stuff gradually. I'm really interested in whether or not it is enjoyable to readers who don't normally read incest and who aren't automaticly turned on by the topic or in fact don't as of yet see the attraction. If I could get anybody like that to read it, lol.


Cumming Soon:

FORCED TO PEE

She's a high maintanance society-girl snob with a passion for bondage and humiliation, but he's taking it to a new level. And after all that time she spent fluffing her hair to just the right fullness!

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH:

She looked at his body, buff and tan. He wasn't Mr. Universe or anything, but he kept in pretty good shape. She thought about when they had met. What the hell had happened to all that stamina, she thought, and the consideration?

"I'm getting really tired of you ignoring me," she told him. I'm really really sick of you expecting blow-jobs all the fucking time and never being willing to go down on me. Well you know what? Its all coming to an end right now. Get down on your knees and start licking."

He didn't know why or even how, but in the next moment he was on his knees, her panties were around her ankles, and his tongue pressed up into her pussy. She held the knife, carefully, on his shoulder. "You like that sweet taste of pussy?"

He pulled his head away from her sweet spot for just a second to say, "Yes, Mistress" before diving back into her cunt. He knew that he should have grappled the knife from her hand, forced her to the floor and asserted his manhood. But he had done the opposite. He had submitted to her demands, and now he had no choice but to continue to do so. He knew that his one chance had passed, he was now changed forever in her eyes, in his own eyes.

"Oh yes," she moaned. "You're my little bitch now."

Wait a minute, Sweet!

Is that really the title: "Forced To Pee"?!

I don't know whether to laugh or cry!

Yep thats the title. Its going under fetish and i wanted a pretty straight forard title.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry!

can you elaborate please?
 
Nah, I'm just not into water sports or scat myself.

It just struck me as a classic raw porno title, along the lines of "Teenage Nympho", "Sweet Sucking Wives", "Sluts in the Slammer" &c. &c. You don't see many titles like that any more. I think it's great. You know just what you're getting into when you read a story with a title like that.

---dr.M.
 
Well, Sweet, since we seem to be all alone on this thread, I figured I should go and read some of your stuff and give you some feedback, but it's kind of hard for me.

I read "Our Favorite Game" and the variation on it, and the first thing I have to say is that I'm surprised you published both versions, as they don't seem very different to me at all. It's almost like they're two drafts of the same story. The 'Variations" has a bit more description, but as I recall (& I read them three days ago) the two stories share identical big chunks of prose. The stories are the same, the endings are identical, teh action is identical. All I can think of is that you really like the story and maube wanted another chance to tell it. But then, why not write it entirely over again?

I was all set to complain about the writing. The story seems kind of herky-jerky to me, with parts--like the telephone call--getting more space than they seem to warrant in terms of erotic payoff, and other parts--like getting slapped in the face with a belt--off enough so that they might seem to need more explanation. (I've never heard of anyone getting slapped in the face with a belt or anything else as part of rough sex. It seemed quite extraordinary to me.)

But there's something about the way you write that was arousing in spite of the rawness. For one thing, I think that the episode you describe really happened because it's just bizarre enough to be taken from real life. That makes the piece more exciting. And you write about it with a lot of enthusiam. Obviously you enjoyed it, and that comes across. So it's not the way I would have written it, but I think that style works for you.

Incidentally, the accepted symbol for a dash is two hyphens,: -- . You use "space hyphen space" which is kind of confusing. Pretty minor point though.

Regards,

---dr.M.

Space hyphen space is perfectly acceptable, indeed preferable, in the eyes of the elderly pedants exemplified by yours truly.
 
Interesting, Unreg. Have you any quotable notable sources for that or just yourself? I've never seen that particular rule you're quoting. I'm always interested in broadening my base of knowledge and my collection of assorted English guides.

As with most of my English grammar beliefs, this one came from the illustrious A.J.Walker, sometime head of English at Nottingham High School.

See also the thread on punctuation on the Editors' Forum.

(PS Nottingham, England, that is.)

A Game of Dress-Up, Part 2 is a new story continuing the tale of Vanessa's reluctant sluthood.

http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=88597

You know, when I describe the story like that, it sounds like an example of the most mindless and elementary kind of smut, and in fact it is intended to be stimulating, but I'm also trying to get into Vanesa's head as well as her pants, and explore the psychodynamics of the female "forced-into-sluthood" fantasy.

Yeah, well, maybe I flatter myself.

But at least I don't punctuate like a Nottingham High School student!;)

One reason for avoiding "space hyphen space" online is the way spaces can disappear when documents pass through plain-text formatting, servers and browsers, leaving you with nothing but a hyphen. An em-dash can also transform into a en-dash, giving you the same result. Double hyphens, though ugly, at least have the virtue of holding fast.

Tut, tut. One should never start a sentence with a conjunction.

In the Queens English boys at school are schoolboys, not students. This is not a crticism, merely clarification for those not so well acquainted as I with the lesser variations of the language as practiced in the revolting colonies.
 
ok, now if we can stop hijacking my thread with grammer rules and get back on topic....


(by which i mean, enough about you, lets talk about me)

______

Although never included in the Declaration of Independence by the ink from Thomas Jefferson's hand, there are two additionally secret and undocumented reasons for the colonies separating from oppressive England:

1) It is perfectly permissible for writers from the United States of America to start sentences with conjunctions, and,

2) We prefer to call our schoolboys, students, unless, of course, they attend institutions of higher learning, in which case we call them college kids.

Let Freedom RING!

(Bloody good thing, too.)
 
I'll save you Sweet.

From A Boeing 747 is my variation on the favourite fantasy of meeting a stranger on a train. Two people meet on an airplane and end up having sex due to his powers as an erotica writer.

Autoerotica is my woefully underread 1st person, present tense story of a woman masturbating. Extract: I roll over to lie on my back, still trying to get comfortable and start to think of Michael. I imagine him walking in through the front door, throwing his coat to the ground and joining me in the bed, both of us tearing at each other’s clothes as his strong hands wind round my body, caressing and squeezing me…

Oh nice going Loren. Now I’m even more horny and I don’t fancy the chances of Michael coming home tonight. I suddenly realise that with all these ruminations, I’ve been absent-mindedly playing with myself. One hand is at my breasts and the other is stroking my inner thigh. I shiver as my fingers move slightly further up my leg, just brushing against my pussy, before sliding up my body to move over my stomach. I bite my lip, enjoying the feeling of fingertips sliding over the flat of my stomach, dragging slowly round in little circles. My eyes are closed and I’m imagining that Michael’s doing this to me.


Seducing Dawn is one of my favourite bits of writing. I admit I've promoted this one shamelessly, but I like it and I like to hear what other people think of it. It's fanfic in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer universe, but it could easily survive without the celebrity tag. It starts off with the backlash of rejection enveloping a woman in magic and mind control and builds from there.

BTW. I think space - space is acceptable on a computer. The -- I think was originally for typewriters where keys might not print. Not 100% sure though.

The Earl
 
Okay, I'm all for a little self promotion. The first three stories are all in the straight romance section and the last three in gay.

Always A romantic story set on Halloween night. Marty's marriage to Max is failing and she feels like she only has one night to set things right.

Amy's Smile There are six chapters so far to this story(just finished seven but it has to be edited yet). This is the link for the first one. Probably my favorite story I've written it's a romantic comedy based very loosely on Pygmalian. Charlie meets Amy, a nerdy little girl and discovers his mother really was right. It's what's inside that counts.

Chasing Fire My latest short story. Anna is bored and feeling neglected. When a fire breaks out near her home she follows it only to find that getting close to the flames might get you burned. Undoubtably the hottest sex in any of my straight stories.

Setting The Wall Max (not the same one as in Always) is getting married to Tess in just three days. Only problem is he'd rather be with his boyfriend, Dev. This is my attempt to tackle seriously the problems that can happen when you're a gay man deep in the closet and how it effects you and those around you. Pretty dark, but I kind of like it.

The Human Condition A long, long story, eleven chapters and over three hundred pages and still not done. (That should scare you off if nothing else does.) It's the saga of two men who meet their freshman year at college. Mike is openly gay, while Joe is the great straight hope for the football team. This story tells how they got together and ended up making a life with each other. It's an ensemble piece, really a novel, but since it's gay I stuck it in that category. Any suggestions for a better title would be welcome. I hate this one it's so pretentious sounding.

Samhain Chanted Evening Okay, this takes some explaining. I cowrote this with Keith Mystery, another author and good friend. It's shown that way on every other site but Lit where for some reason our author's note got left off and only his name shows. Anyway, this is another gay story, also on Halloween. Arthur hates that his exboyfriend cheated on him and he hates that he got the house in the "divorce". Basically he just hates the guy period. So when a wizard blasts into his house thru his computer it's understandable that he'd want to take advantage of the offered curse. If only he'd bothered to read the fine print on the licensing agreement.

Okay, that's it.

Worst Erotic Vampire Story Ever?

I've got a new story posted in the Erotic Horror category called "The Donor". Here's the link:

http://www.literotica.com/stories/showstory.php?id=90107

So far it's got one vote and it's a solid 1!

This was written for a girl I met on the web who claimed to be a real, blood-drinking vampire (she preferred "Vampress"): a sanguinarian, and it's kind of different from what I usually write.

I really don't know how I feel about the piece. I'd be really interested in getting some feedback.

Really, Dr. M, I'm surprised and shocked that you would write such a sentence. A more correct form would be:

"Okay, motherfucker, but at least I don't punctuate like a Nottingham High School student."

Helpfully,
MG
