It's against forum rules to post full stories or long excerpts here, as it can be a method to bypass the story screening process.

This is going to get deleted by the mods pretty quickly, so if you wrote your story directly I to the forum, you should probably copy and paste it into a personal document so you don't lose it!

If you want to share a story, you'll need to publish it on Lit properly!

Plus this is borderline on character age

 

[phtlc]

My apologies, I didn't know where to post. Where do I post stories?

 

[phtlc]

OK, I think I posted it in the right place. Should I delete this thread or should I wait for the moderators to do that?

 

[PennyThompson]

There's a New Story button at the top of every page in Lit, that's where you actually submit a story for publishing. You should probably read the content guidelines while you're at it!

Sounds pretty AI-like, tbh. No offense.

If you require proof, I can provide you with the link where I posted the story years ago, before AI was available. I have been an author on several sites and this story is way old and posted on more than one site

Hi, Thank you for the feedback. Sorry to bother you but while I signed up here years ago, this is the first time I've posted anything here so I'm not familiar with the process. Is there a specific link for "lit"

You're on it, just short for Literotica

There's a big "New Story" button at the top of this very page, where you can submit one of your stories for publication. Though if you're on a mobile screen you might only see a pencil icon without the words!

Thank you so much. Should I delete this thread?

Yeah, probably, otherwise it will just get deleted by a mod anyway.

Thank you. I just posted it through the proper channel.

You need to focus on maintaining a consistent tense, avoiding run on sentences (like this one), bringing variety and dynamism to your words, and - most of all - ensuing all people involved are eighteen plus.

And - as @PennyThompson said - you can’t post long excerpts here.

Thank you for the feedback. All my characters are of legal age, even if I tend to write them as barely legal.

That’s the problem…

Ah, I see. I assumed that so long as someone was eighteen even if they only recently turned 18 it was acceptable for literature. My apologies.

If the character has already turned 18, it's all fine, regardless of whether it happened recently or not. The AH can get preachy sometimes.

Fully understood. I love stories of MILF's deflowering virgin males, but I would never intentionally violate a rule. Perhaps for future postings, I'll put a disclaimer that all characters depicted are of legal age. I do intend to write them that way, but obviously I should have made that more clear.

Contrary to what my esteemed colleague, @AwkwardlySet says, just saying they are eighteen, but they behave like a kid will get you in trouble. They need to be 18+ in all respects.

And I’ve written stories featuring 18 yos so I’m not being prudish. And yes I’m aware a lot of people have sex before the magic number (albeit I’m not one of them).

A disclaimer is meaningless. It's how you write the characters that matters - if you write your virgin males as naive young adolescents, you're likely to push up against the line. Your innocent youths need to be clearly written as eighteen plus.

I've published two stories about Blondie and his friends, who are all 19 or 20 through their appearances. They do not ever act childlike, though. (Adolescent, yeah, sometimes.) I think Laurel never gave it a second glance, because I have him acting like an adult first thing (holding down a job that I show him being competent at, owning a car, etc.).

I have two stories that start the day of or the day after MC's 18th birthday. But have lots of naiveté, but are still fundamentally adults. No problem with either getting accepted. One was a prize winner. The other is my Valentine's day entry (but is not going to win anything).
