Welcome to:
The Official Authors' Hangout Summer Lovin' 2025 Contest Support Thread

A weekend at the beach, a campsite in the forest, a hike along the Appalachian Trail, cheap seats at the ball game, a bucket of beer and a back yard full of friends, these are all signs of summer and I'm sure you have more. While our friends in Oz are scraping frost off the windshield and thawing out the drop bears, up north we're tossing tube steaks on the grill. Either way nothing say summer like a hot keyboard and an overworked imagination!

Let's go!

Summer Lovin' (summertime) themes: warm weather, county fairs, summer activities, outdoor concerts, beaches, bikinis, camping, etc.

It's all about June to September!

Schedule of activities:
Starts: August 15
Closes: September 5
winners announced: September 12


Please ensure you have "SUMMER LOVIN 2025" in the Notes to Admin field.

This thread is to SUPPORT and ENCOURAGE authors to enter stories in the 2025 Summer Lovin' Contest. Bring out the squirt guns, the inflatable mattresses, and the sunscreen, and open yourself to some sizzling summer Fun Times!

Just remember, it has to be summer related - not necessarily beach related.

As Ogg always tells us, there is an advantage to entering stories in one of Literotica's themed contests. Apart from the possibility of winning, your story gets far more exposure and attention than it would typically receive.

Wait for Laurel's notice of the start of the contest as a sticky at the top of the Authors' Hangout before submitting and follow the instructions in that thread.


Good luck and have fun!

Thanks for starting the thread! Small typo with the year, unless we want to go back in time to those lockdown days šŸ˜‰.
 
I misread that - "tossing tube socks on the grill". Too early in the morning here.

It's a good comp to write for. I've got a start, just need the time to finish it.
 
It's just too cold to think of a summer story right now!! Need to think back to January summer days... cricket, beer, beach...
 
Got a good one already. Europeans in prewar Singapore... everything is HOT.

Got your mind working already! What you wanted to do then, you can do all day long now, or at least write about it

That sounds painful. I always heard the term ā€˜tube steak with white gravy’ as referring to a penis covered with semen after masturbation.
 
There's a coda a the end explaining that some of them didn't.

But only the shitty characters. Lol.
Just on that... serious response... the fall of Singapore, the treatment of POWs, massacres, forced prostitution and so on is still a significant point of pain in Australia and some other parts of the former British Empire, including obviously Singapore. You're a great writer and I'm sure you'll be careful, but I still just wanted to mention it...

Oh, it's not fetishized or anything. Here's what it says:

"Sir Henry Chapman (1874-1937) was Resident Chief Secretary in Sarawak for many years. He was killed during the Japanese attack on Shanghai while acting as Commissioner there."
 
Pre war Singapore... quite the challenge. I'm going to do a bit less historic piece - post State Fair North Dakota.
