The worst erotic fiction

[WordSmith78]

Hello all.

I am researching bad erotic literature for a magazine article I am writing. When I say bad, I mean excruciatingly contrived and cliched rubbish... stuff that is so bad it's almost good.

I would be most grateful for directions to websites sporting "bad" erotic fiction and/or examples of stories that fit within this category.

I am told there are sites that give awards for the worst examples of bad erotica. Anyone know what these are?

Any feedback welcome... opinions? Worst sentences you've ever read??

Cheers.

Just a suggestion . . . go to the Story Feedback forum, sixth thread down . . . .

Excellent stuff. Thanks!

Any other ideas/thoughts/musings on terrible writing are more than welcome!!!

This was mentioned in a thread sometime ago ... I believe that there were a number of new cliche's added by AH authors.

Phew, I don't see my name mentioned anywhere.

I recollect being pretty taken aback by this one and not in any humorous way either-- simply bad writing, ugly sentiments and a whole lot of disrespect

My stuff is crap - proof that if you're great at fucking doesn't mean the talent necessarily transcribes into prose. I strongly advise you not to read a single line if you are easily nauseated.

I knew there was an annual award given to the worst sex scene in fiction, and you can find a quick run down in Wikipedia, here

But then, a quick Google on the subject brought up a wealth of information (see the Night Shade Books Discussion) including some interesting analyses of some literary greats like Tom Wolfe "...whose novel "Before I Forget" contains the following description of a woman's vulva:

"(It was) like a large exotic mushroom in the fork of a tree, a little pleasure dome if ever I've seen one, where Alph the sacred river ran down to a tideless sea. No, not tideless. Her tides were convulsive, an ebb and flow that could take you very far, far back, before hurling you out, wildly and triumphantly, on a ribbed and windswept beach without end."

Go, Tom! Go! *Tom Wolfe used to write standing up, putting his paper on top of his fridge because he was too excited to sit down. Now we know why.)

Make no mistake. Writing decent porn is an art, and many an accomplished writer has lost his or her way and made egeregious fools of themselves amid all that tumescence and turgidity can crack the stoutest extended metaphor.

At one point I had a story titled "Envy" up here at Lit.

It scored at less than a 2 (and I've gotten used to my 4's tyvm) and did not get a single positive feedback. Part of it was the fact that it was a really ugly story, and part of it was just that it was, to put it plainly, shit. I'd be happy to donate the rough draft to the cruci-fiction cause.

I adore you, Doctor mab

Oooh, Zoot.

Whenever you discuss tumescence and turgidity it makes me feel as if I'll deliquesce.

*fanning self*

Oh - and how does The Right Stuff play into Wolfe's standing up writing deal? Oh, wait, I get it. All those turgid missiles, right?

 

[Chantilyvamp]

lol, mine, mine are pretty bad me thinks...scores are good but i still swear they are shit!

My contribution was The Worst Chain Story Ever Chapter 01

Other parts of that chain are worth a look for cliche and just plain bad sex. Of course the Chain is incomplete and missing sections. It wouldn't be "the worst" without that.

This is a story of mine and it's just bad, not to mention my worst scoring. So hideously awful, that *I* don't even read it anymore.
