I am not so naive to think that those who venture here are the same ones that read and comment. I'd like to think I'm wrong, and please post if I am. But I wanted to let readers know that I seriously listen to comments and feedback. I've submitted three stories in the past few days (mainly today)

One in Horror, Castle Keep 8, and two in Incest, completely as a result of readers who reminded me that they wanted to read more. As a result Reluctant Desire 3 is coming (no pun intended) as is A Ghost From The Past 2, which has been sitting half-written on my hard drive (again, no pun intended). And I've also been inspired to start writing Reluctant Desire 4.

Readers, most writers react to feedback. Had not one lone voice raised the issue, these stories would never have resulted. Please, enjoy the stories, and vote, and comment, and provide feedback. We're investing hours of our life trying to figure out what you want. JUST TELL US!

The computer I paid with Mastercard, the wife I bought on-line at a Russian website I paid with Mastercard, but the gentle nudge in the right direction by a comment or feedback from a reader IS PRICELESS.

Oh, just a warning - the Russians don't give refunds.
 
Story Inspiration - Mail Order Bride

WhiteWave48 said:
You've just whetted my appetite with that hint of on-line Russian wife! A panties-off story for sure.

Somehow, my creative muse just put an idea in my head through this thread about doing a story on a mail-order bride. What would you think of this? I can already feel the heat of a Wild West setting, or a lonesome prairie farm, or even a station out in Queensland. Doesn't have to take place in the US. Well, I must admit that WhiteWave48 was mostly the muse, but AS started it so you both get credit. Any takers on such a story? I'm already getting excited about writing this and feel it taking shape in the back of my brain. I've still got about 4 stories still to complete, but they may just have to sit on the back burner for a little while.

I'm sure if I cull through the stories here on Lit, there's going to probably be something in there about a story like this, but it won't be My story. Since you two were the inspiration, any takers on a joint piece, AS, WW?

Now I'd be happy to be part of this, especially as it looks like I'd have two guys fighting over my character. Not sure if AS still carries a gun in his holster these days...


Now, are AS and I going to settle this like civilized men, or are we going to head out to the OK corral and want to battle it out for the privilege and honor of having your character in this story to ourself?

I could see this as a chain story if AS is in, with WW doing the mail order bride part, 1 of us writing as the lonesome farmer or rancher in the 1800's wanting an instant bride. Now the other could write as a homeboy of the bride who has pined for her since they were knee high to grasshoppers and has to decide to put it all on the line or lose WW's character. It could be intercontinental and flash various directions.

The bride to be must have some inner conflict with herself or the homeboy that drives her to seek out such a desperate measure. Perhaps(Nothing here about your WW) she considers herself as 'ordinary' or 'plain', but has extraordinary intentions and drive but is somehow forced by the patriarchal system of her time to make this choice. Just some food for thought, but I think this could be a very good piece.

I'm clearly in and so is WW, right? AS, wanna rumble on this story? :cool:

Go for it

You two can run with it. I've been in a bit of a writing slump lately, and been doing more editing as a result. I still have several partially written stories I need to get back to when I feel the urge return, but I can't say how soon that will be.

Oh come on AS. Your work is excellent, your readers are vast and growing and they all love you. You know you don't really live unless your are in the midst of writing a nail biting scene that will have your readers clamoring for more and more and more. There's nothing as fulfilling as hitting that submit now button and knowing that your words will be read thousands of time by thousands of people. Don't you love the fact that just maybe, something you wrote could bring a smile to a face across the world, that might not have had something to smile at that day? Doesn't the fact that you touch people with your written word have some small affect upon your own world?

Write, you know you want to... :D
 
Wow, That's Profound!

Any writer would hope that their story was read and enjoyed. And I will shamelessly agree that the SUBMIT button is my Cocaine, or Ecstasy, or any other drug of choice. It does give me a 'high', or a rush, you pick the term that works.

And it also drives me to help those that need help to assist them in learning what it's like to write. Call me The Dealer! Oh crap, sudden realization, being a guru I can change that to "The Dealer". But writing, sharing ideas, is the drug. What do you think? Can knowledge be a drug?

Daniellekitten, thanks for your quite unexpected support. I didn't realize my stories have had such an effect. I was just happy to garner an 'H' or two.

As for your last question, if anything I can do can affect someone else in a positive way, I would do that. Given the enormity of the moment (Memorial Day), if I knew that one of my stories provided the smallest distraction for a soldier or the family, I would be very apprciative.

OK, but I know that WW and others would love to have you in this. If the story doesn't suit you that's cool or if you are truly into other things, that's cool too. Perhaps though, DK's delightful encouragement can get you to reconsider or at least continue writing something else of your own material. I'm going to go ahead and rough out an outline so I don't lose this muse moment. I will ask WW if she knows of another perhaps who would be interested as a 3rd, or we could run with it as you suggest. Later, :cool:

Just Move

Rotate the pelvis up and down, the hips left and right...

As if I know!

But it sounds good, LOL, WW.
 
Panties in a bunch

WhiteWave48 said:
Now it's my panties in a bunch - but for other reasons.

This is scary stuff as I've never tried it before. Careful instruction required from someone who knows the procedure. My Russian's very rusty.


I'm sure there are many out there who can give careful instruction about the procedure to follow when your panties are in a bunch. Actually, there would be many who would be happy to volunteer to give hands-on instruction. BTW, my Russian iss veerie weeak toa. :cool:

SxRx
 
Woo hoo...now look what a few encouraging words can do...You people are fantastic, keep at it. Consider me your very own dancing banana! :nana:
 
Formulating an idea...

Well, maybe I can write from the perspective of a harried businessman that has no time to date. He's in an unfulfilling affair with a married woman, which could provide a sex scene at the start.

He suddenly sees a colleague showing up at official functions with a stunning young woman on his arm, having what appears to be the time of his life, happier than should be allowed. He (I) grow jealous and make inquiries, comes to find out she's a Russian mail-order bride, which piques his interest.

The character begins making inquiries.

Then SxRx could write from the perspective of a shady middle-man dealing in such things as mail-order brides, black market stuff, the imagination can run wild here.

And then White Wave can write a chapter from her perspective as a young woman struggling to find her place in a suddenly democratic country, seeing a friend leaving for the "promised land" as a promised wife and headed for what has to be a much better life than she has a right to long for.

Just a thought, and so many twists along the way are possible to keep things interesting. And in each chapter there must be sex. Maybe SxRx can be taking advantage of hopeful potential brides, and perchance White Wave can find a reason to get sexual.

Any thoughts ??

Hmmm

Not sure where to go with this now. I was really thinking more along the lines of a period piece in the 1800's with an old-fashioned mail-order bride story line. Your take sounds good as well. :eek: ?

Wondering...

I know White Wave is a bit uncertain as well. The whole thing was originally posted as a humorous jab. Joint writing projects require quite a bit of coordination, it seems, as differing potential authors have differing ideas, and I don't think any of us have any experience in this area.

The only reason I was "talked into it" was Danielle Kitten's glowing comments, and she's probably sitting back and enjoying the chaos she has created, purring loudly and licking the fresh blood off her paws. Still, I hate to see a pussy left unsatisfied, it detracts from my "manly" nature, LOL.

So, what's next?
 
Would Like To Know...

BadBigBrain is a "V" but was drawn into the idea and offered his help. And as far as I'm concerned, we're trying to draw in the inexperienced so we can corrupt them <LOL>

LadyC, forgive me, but I must ask the newbie.

BBB, and any other newbies for that matter, had there been a forum titled "A Welcome Mat" when you first experienced Lit, would you have been drawn to that? And if so, what would you have expected?

And better yet, if there was such a forum, would virgins be more inclined to read such things as a FAQ?

I don't mean to be the sole reason why LadyC sharpens her claws. <Exposing his back - 'Upper left shoulder-blade'>
 
Not sure AS

Maybe let things simmer and see what develops. Actually, your plot seemed a bit more thought through than mine at this point, but I did have my heart set on a period piece. Perhaps Danielle Kitten would consider working with you on your plot what with WW's uncertainty. I'll either table my period mail-order bride story, or write it myself. Dunno. Guess I'm learning here.

WhiteWave48 said:
Now I'm looking at two options: a modern business scenario or a period piece, and AS is reminding us of Danielle Kitten, the unsatisfied pussy. Perhaps it's a case of 'bring on the dancing banana' right now to get this thing going!

Still trying to lock onto someone's thought waves here. A Russian mail-order bride won't be able to say much in the story, but she can think.

Here's my thoughts...she knows enough English to get by a little bit, and her new husband knows enough Russian to get by. They teach each other the language of love as they're doing it. Translating as they go along. No matter the time period.
 
WhiteWave48 said:
That is a sweet idea - they speak their own common language...

Do you speak Russian, BBB?

And they learn each others' language together.

I used to speak it a lot more than I do now. But I know enough to get by, the rest I'd babel.
