What are we all writing right now?

[nicecthulhu]

Been a long while, but let's see...
1) editing (for the 10th time) a sci fi about predicting the future that takes place throughout the solar system
2) a sequel to The Goblin Queen where our heroine gets lost in an alternate dimension dominated by a very evil elf sorceress (4th or 5th edit)
3) The Doctor's Daughter sequel set in war of 1812 and involving the heroine being accused of spying for the Americans and then her being kidnapped by a gang of traitors who steal her across the Niagara River and into the US (2nd or 3rd edit)
4) starting another Ancient Egypt story involving Anubis as the main antagonist
With my writing style I have to alternate editing and writing different stories.

Currently active stories:

My chapter in the Bathtubs and Broomsticks chain story
Chapter 4 of The Dome, focusing on Xero's mother
Chapter 2 of One Orgasm At A Time: Dolly finds herself in the Trojan Horse, mistaken for Aphrodite
And especially for @onehitwanda I'm fleshing out The Witches' House from the Fairy Tales writing exercise

There was a time when I'd finish one story before moving on to the next one. What happened to that version of me?

In a surprise to exactly nobody, I am nearing the end of Chapter 1 of a slow burn lesbian romance! But this time it is set not in Bristol or Spain, but on the planet Jerusalem, where three generations of settlers have basically established Gilead where polygamy reigns and my protagonists need to find a way to flee or be stoned to death. It's very Margaret Atwood/John Wyndham.

15k words in, and the climax is in sight. They've barely kissed so far, but Chapter 2 will be all about them discovering their bodies.

Applying proofread edits to a Halloween CFNM story, writing another CFNM story in an art class and finishing up a story that's a little hard to define; for work reasons, a woman has to deal with involuntary orgasms from her pants.

I have two stories in my partially done folder on here.

There’s THE PROCESS. A sci-fi, horror story about genetic manipulation to create the perfect athlete that goes horribly wrong.

Then there’s COUPLES THERAPY about two people who decide to scam an asshole celebrity relationship counsellor but find out that things are not as they seem.

There are a couple of other things but they’re concepts as yet, not exactly fleshed out.

I just submitted part 1 of a new long series called BE GLAMOROUS. Following a half Korean half black New Yorker rapper who is in a k pop company. I'm so excited at how well it went. Working on part 2 now.

Is her name Blakwafina?

I understood that reference.

I couldn't get my shit together in time for Halloween, but I might have already started writing something for Christmas. I'm giving myself a strict cap of three acts and 2k words per act, so hopefully it doesn't grow out of control like "My Boyfriend's Boyfriends" was starting to do.

I'm still in the notemaking stage, but this looks to be a WLW parody of The Gift of the Magi, a story which I already referenced (just character names) in "Storyteller," my summer lovin' story.

Oddly enough, I think the O. Henry story isn't too well-written and comes off as a jumped up first draft. But the underlying ideas are solid.

I am writing chapter 2 of my series The Sweetest Berry and stuck in the final two scenes. Really annoying.

 

[Rob_Royale]

I have just started Passion at the Opera, inspired by a song of the same name. Set in a nameless European city in 1910, a mysterious patron has provided inspiration and funding for a struggling theatre company. I intend it to be a love letter to May/December romances.

 

[Sappho_CGN]

I have my common problem of having many ideas for a plot and losing focus.



1. 8 pages about a story of a woman of my age, divorced, submissive, looking for Prince Charming, combined with a bit of Thriller

2. 6 pages of a new story about me and my husband

3. Idea of a German heroine who more or less accidently become manager of a low-level soccer club in England (could be a book)

4. Idea for a story of a former soldier of the French Foreign Legion having to leave Germany and fighting for a rebel group in South America (and the wonderful female leader) (could be also a book)

5. BDSM-Story about a married lady being blackmailed and finding her true destination/determination

Finished writing the second chapter of The Cuckquean's Contract last night. I just need to proofread it and wait for my edit to the first chapter (removing the words "The End") to be approved before I can publish it. I'll shortly be starting work on the third chapter, although I'm currently not sure where to take it after that.

 

[StillStunned]

My latest "look at this shiny new story idea, it's far more exciting than all the other story ideas I'm working on" is a tale of the love between a knight and a demoness, using the knight's confession to his priest as a framing device.

 

[Naughtylit81]

I just finished my latest story. Between Saturday morning and this afternoon I churned out my 3600 words and completed my longest story to date at nearly 12K words. Very excited to hear back from my editors and get the story out there.

 

[StillStunned]

I've more or less completed my chapter for the "Lights, Camera, Blood" chain story, so now I'm trying to decide whether to continue with "The Witches' House" (from the Fairy Tales writing exercise), a new chapter of "One Orgasm At A Time" (Dolly's stuck in the Trojan Horse - which of the Greek warriors has to get his orgasm back?), a story from my series "The Rivals", about how Avilia gets her imp-powered pleasure rod, or the one about a knight falling in love with a demoness.

I'll probably write two lines of each story, and then embark on something completely new.

 

[Ms_Macabre]

I've got two serious projects.

I was recently requested to write an age gap that follows the professor/student trope with a happy ending, but a happy ending for the trope is kinda tricky, so I'm writing it as a professor/research assistant so it keeps the spirit, but we're also dealing with adults who won't really face any repercussions of their actions.

And I have a secret summer lovers story set ten years later, in which they cross paths again and hook up in a small town somewhere in Georgia. She leaves after high school, he stays behind and becomes a local cop, and she comes home after an accident to rest and visit, and it picks up from there.

My entry for the Winter contest. I'm way behind !

 

[lovecraft68]

Something simple, a boss's daughter piece with an additional taboo as in the boss is also a long time friend so he's know her since she was a child....but the whole "I'm not a little girl anymore' angle.

Easy peasy and kind of sleazy.

 

[Kasumi_Lee]

Chapter Four of The Cuckquean's Contract is in the works. Still waiting for Chapter Three to be approved, though.

 

[StillStunned]

In a quiet corner of the busy square by the Landward Gate, in a shady spot beneath a tall date tree, sits the storyteller of Arrakh on his striped mat. For two generations at least, the old people say, the storyteller has sat there on his striped mat, earning a handful of copper commons from passersby, or a sweetmeat from the children who listen wide-eyed to his tales, or perhaps even a silver noble from a generous merchant or soldier.

His voice is thin, reedy, cracked, like an old book left too long in the sun. To hear him speak is to wonder how long he can continue. Yet to hear him tell his tales, that is to wonder. It is as if he has saved his voice, for now it rolls and resonates, sings and sounds, climbs high and drops low, and it takes the listener on a journey that they will not lightly forget.

On this day there passes by the quiet corner of the busy square by the Landward Gate a woman. Her robe is simple, but of fine material. Her sandals are worn, but of good workmanship. Her hair is unadorned, but black as the raven at night.

This woman pauses by the storyteller of Arrakh and turns her head to him. Almost it seems as if it is by chance that she stops.

“Tell me a fantasy,” she says.

The storyteller looks up at her from his striped mat with an apology in his eyes. “Lady, the stories I tell are no fantasies. They are the truth.”

“The truth?”

“A truth, perhaps, would be better to say.”

The woman is silent, then draws her hand from her robe. Silver gleams in her palm. “Then tell me a truth.” She drops silvers into the storyteller’s bowl on the striped mat, one by one. One, two, three, four, five. “Tell me my truth.”

Since I've submitted my entry for the Winter Contest, I've been hard at work on a story called Hysteria! (Exclaimation Point is part of the title.) It's my first foray into the BDSM genre. It's depraved, naughty and oddly wholesome all at once. Needless to say, I'm very excited to release it after I finish editing and writing it.

Another story I've been chipping away at is a Romance story called Words On My Lips. I might be saving this one up for a release around Valentine's Day depending on how I'm feeling, but we shall see. This is more in the spirit of the other Romance story I did for the Summer Lovin' Contest, Love Brewing On The South Shore, and a bit Hallmark-ish but I'm also a hopeless romantic if you ask my husband

 

[AllenWoody]

- My third Pandora's Other Box story, which will take a while since it's more ambitious than the first two.
- An addendum to the third The Arena story. Should be an easy write but it's low priority.

I'm also, supposedly, working on two multi-chapter Sci-Fi works but both of them have run aground and I haven't been patient enough to pull them off of the rocks yet.

Right now? A few RPs, an erotic medieval possession tale, an interim report on a historic thanatalogical research project, and a population genetics analysis of Covid mortality during the pandemic.
