I have written stories in a variety of categories, and they have received some criticism, some praise, and some no responses. However, I have been amazed at some of the responses to my stories about cuckolds. Even an essay about cuckolds with no plot and no characters got vicious attacks. The responses have been violent, angry, - raw, primitive, emotional an...
This is not a How To on how to win the Literotica contest, Survivor. It's a How To on how to use this year long contest as a writing tool. First, like many submissions that discuss the contest, I'll give you a brief recap of what Survivor is, but unlike some of the previous stories from previous writers, I am not going through all the rules. Though I will di...
I have been a writer all of my life. My employment as an adult has, to a large extent, depended on my ability to get published, which I suppose makes me a professional writer. In addition to writing, I've also served as a consulting editor for a number of publications. I am no stranger to the written word. The motives for writing erotic fiction no doubt va...
In 2017, I did an interview with the great Bob_Aganoush. You can find that interview in his profile along with his stories. As of August 2020, I've updated my answers because I felt I could give more clarity on things. So, here you go, dear readers. Is there anything about you and your background, beyond what is in your Literotica profile, that you would...
Q. Hello, Mr. Donovan. A. Hi there. Q. Is your name really Powell Donovan? A. Why, no. Did you really ask that question? I suppose you believe that George Eliot's name was really George Eliot, or that Adrian Leverkuehn (of this site, check him out, he's really good) is really named Adrian Leverkuehn? I won't even go into the more obvious pseudonyms. Q. W...
I am conducting a series of interviews with authors on Literotica, this is the second in the series, with the author silkstockingslover. I have reached out to a variety of authors, some of who have been on the site for a while, others who are newer, but all write stories that I admire. I hope you enjoy the series, please feel free to send me your feedback, i...
I have complained twice about how the Survivor contest works and my complaints were not well received, an understatement. The hostile smugness of the response to my comments surprised me and made me realize that there is nothing funny or fun about the Survivor Contest. This is a very serious competition, indeed. After all, there is money involved and whenev...
There are a lot of things about this site that I'll never understand, but I have found that most of them center on the readers... For instance, there seem to be a lot of readers that go around reading stories that they know they won't like and then leaving degrading remarks on the stories. They're too cowardly to leave a name, but for some reason they thin...
Interview with Steve Richardson, publisher of CF Publications, a company devoted to erotic spanking stories. On the website of CF Publications at http://www.cfpub.com, it bills itself as "the oldest and largest publisher of spanking stories in the world." It publishes seven magazines devoted to erotic spanking and publishes stand-alone spanking stories. CF...
For a few years now I have been conducting a series of interviews with authors on Literotica. This is the ninth in the series, with the author lovecraft68. He came highly recommended to me by a number of readers, and while not originally that familiar with his work, after reading a few stories I understood why people were so enthusiastic. I think you'll appr...
