Submitting stories

[WriterDom]

Has anyone submitted a story to Bondage.com? What a huge difference than Literotica. You have to sign a contract that gives them exclusive rights and fax or mail a pic ID. But if it's accepted, you get a premium account for 3 months. Which allows you to see the dirty pics in profiles and also the dirty pic side. Otherwise it's something like 10 bucks a month. I haven't done a story in years, but I might try one there. Which sucks cause I can't parallel post on lit. But if I did hint that I had a story there would it be considered spam? I know lit has no connection with bondage, but it is a site where at least on this forum, many of us feel a connection.

I don't know what sort of policy Laurel might have about it, but I don't see that it would be much different than linking to any other site.

It isn't as if anyone is forced to follow the link. It wouldn't be an obnoxious pop-up ad. I don't see the harm, myself.

I don't think it'd be a problem. You could PM Laurel about it.

If you want it read,...why not post it here on Lit *FIRST*?

that's the thing. I'd have to sign all the rights over to bondage.com and insure that it hadn't been posted anywhere else.

I would think if it was good enough for them to accept,...then the story is worth more than their fee.

I think that posting the information that you have had your story posted would not be spam. What would not be proper would be to do something like put a link in your sig line so that the link came up all over the board when you posted.
Personally, I think that we ought to be encouraging the creativity of our members here, and I don't think telling us you have a story up at bondage.com would be any different thn if you were announcing that you had been published in a magazine or written a book.

The problem is that bondage.com is a paysite. Laurel gets paid money by paysites to advertise here. If she starts letting people advertise pay sites for free, there may be a problem.

If it were another free site, I don't think it would even need to be brought to her attention. However, since they require people pay to see your stuff, you may want to ask her if you can link it in your sig-line first. Just to do a little CYA.

She's not against people making cash or posting elsewhere. The problem would be conflict of interest, not her personal feelings.
