I am amongst other things a nudist. But I can't go to the resort as often as I would like to or need to especially in the spring to get my "all over" tan. Since I am also a farmer's wife, I live in the country and do not have any near by neighbors; at least none that can see our place from theirs and we live off the road and back in the woods. The lane isn't...
Hello, I have been reading stories posted to this site for about a year. I must admit, I found the range of subjects fascinating, and the range of quality astounding. Some of the authors who post here are excellent writers with vivid imaginations and superior skills. Others are not quite as good, but who, with a little patience and a great deal of editing,...
Bruised, battered, base- Mankind takes inventory, held breaths between up & coming conflicts like choirs of children biting their tongue, zooming in on a stubbed toe before inspecting the damage & totaling the bill. And all that's found, dear reader, is canned laughter. Perhaps to fully comprehend the severity of the issue, it behooves you to imagine that...
Thoughts On Writing Erotica: POVs, Plots, Pacing, And Pudendas To begin this discussion, I would like to start with MY definition of Erotica vs. Pornography, and Erotica vs. mainstream fiction. Many people are confused over the lines between mainstream fiction that has erotic elements in it, and true erotica. Likewise, there is great confusion, and differen...
"No, I don't think so, I don't believe in them," Sarah said sipping her coffee. "You don't have to, it's just a little fun, that's all," Carol replied, "The appointment's made and paid for, tomorrow at eleven, say you'll come?" "I don't want to," Sarah reiterated. "Why? Frightened she'll say something you don't want to hear? They just make it up." It had...
No offense taken, no offense given. This is what forums should be about. I had submitted this before, but I must have 'fat fingered' something, and the submission was stuck in a type of limbo. I could not fix it so I was forced to delete it and start again. Unfortunately, there were 5-6 comments that were lost in the process. Please accept my apologies. *...
Author's Note: Here's a short little vignette about a woman trying to relax after a stressful day. It's barely 1500+ words. I hope you approve. * Ivy pulled back the fluffy comforter from her bed before sprawling out on her freshly washed sheets. She propped up her pile of pillows. The pillowcases still carried the flowery scent of fabric softener. She inh...
What makes a Literotica reader click on a story? Many people choose from favorite categories or authors. Still others rely on the little “H” (for Hot) and “E” (for Editor’s Pick) designations. Often, I’m sure it’s just random impulse. If you’re like most of us authors, you aren’t just writing for yourself. You want other people to read your work. Here at L...
Editing One's Work: Using a Text to Speech Program as a Proofreading Tool In December 2006 I posted this to Literotica under the title: Using Microsoft Reader as a Proofreading Tool. Since that time, MS Reader has been changed in such a way that it is no longer useful for this purpose. * What follows below is the original essay on the need for proofreadi...
EPILOGUE. Hi, Arch here. Wow, I hope that was a satisfactory journey for you... because the amazing comments and interaction certainly made it a first one I'll remember! Firstly I apologize to all those who hated the story. But I did warn of the content. On that note, I will admit I don't like the Mona Lisa as a painting. It is too dark, the girl is ugl...
