What are the highst number of comments, views and favorites you've received for a story?

Considering what you can find in some of the so-called romantasy novels, it wouldn’t be a big stretch for content creators who cater to that audience to start branching in our direction.

There used to be a porn thing where ladies would attempt to read Dickens while someone used a vibrator on them. Maybe they could bring that back. I'd like to nominate, as the first work read, that story I saw in New that opened with someone getting in a car accident and biting their lover's dick off.

Edit: It was actually way more highbrow than that -- it's SFW enough to be on Youtube. Hysterical Literature was the name of the project. It was on Vanity Fair's website for a while.

We need LitTube.

We can get some of the cam girls to discuss their favorite works.

I misread that at first, thinking you said LitLube instead.
I thought you were suggesting it for those of us with a story stuck in Pending Purgatory…

Well, maybe that too then... We've got room for lots of ideas!

The first one I experimented with was You Know You Shouldn’t (warning: T/I). It's a very in-your-face kind of 2P, but I don't think that's the reason why it's only rated 3.97 (a paradoxical combination of highlighting the wrongness of molesting your sleeping mother, and the fact that the molestation doesn't go all the way).

My more recent one is Into The Night, which I wrote for the Born to Run challenge. This is rated much higher, which was a surprise to me. It's difficult reading, because it's more than 7k words of stream of consciousness, but overall I think 2P worked better with this story because it's much more subtle.

The easiest way to spot the difference between faux and real 2P POV is to see whether there's an "I", even if it's only implied. If there is, then that's the narrator, and the story is strictly speaking 1P POV passing as 2P.

Okay, well, then at least I wrote the 750 word entry in the first person. That's 1st person and 3rd person checked off and I just need 2nd person once I do it right. Thanks for linking to the story that you liked of the two you posted.

This sounds like so much fun. Someone could also write a non-erotic story specifically for this

For my 1 and only vignette (Fragments - First Love), I received 15 comments and a 4.47 rating. People get me and my writing style

Some categories are obviously more popular than others. Looking at the number of views that incest stories get still amazes me. I only have three stories published. The highest is A Seductive Massage with 50k views, 454 ratings and 19 comments.

What I find is almost all of the comments come in the first few days after the story is published. I see the views slowly going up over time but hardly any comments as the story gets older.

I think the thing about 2P is that it's hard to think of a story that *needs* 2P, and if it doesn't actually need it, then 1P or 3P will always be better.

I set out to write "You Know You Shouldn't" as a deliberate attempt to do something I despised. I even started a thread about it at the time (here). I wouldn't have done it if something hadn't clicked in my mind that it would be a good use for 2P.

"Into The Night" came about because I had an idea to use Bruce Springsteen's song "Night" as a cyberpunk setting. Only the lyrics of that song are in 2P. Again it clicked, but this time it was stream of consciousness and 2P at the same time. Those two style choices work together to create an immersive experience that I don't think I could achieve if either was done differently.

I have a story with the narrative going from 2nd to third. It felt natural when I wrote it so I left it alone. Not a popular work, 11 Lit pages, but even if the narrative is uneven I'm still proud of the experiment and the characters and relationships in the work.

 

[YmaOHyd]

I think the best use-case for second person is making the reader complicit in something they really don't want to do. You Know You Shouldn't is a great use for it. It invokes the horror mood. You're screaming at yourself to turn around, the monster's behind you.

My highest views and comments are still from my first story here, Days of Summer, at 71.7K views and 36 comments. My highest rated and favorited and probably eventual highest views, since it's still slowly creeping upward, is my first foray into T/I with All Inclusive, with 135 favorites.

Both were contest entries -- Days of Summer took third in last year's Nude Day contest, which I'd guess is why its view and comment numbers are comparatively up there.
