Starting The Wizard of Oz and the rest of baum's work.

Quote by paddlingincognito

I’ve recently written some stories on cucking and BDSM. In both cases, I know I deviated from some norms.

I am now starting a Swingers story. I have zero experience with wife swapping, swinging, or the lifestyle.

I know some of you have done historical pieces which have required significant research. I get that. But when you tackle a category, topic, kink, or fetish that you know nothing about personally, where do you start? Google? Your favorite AI chatbot (cringe)? Somewhere else? Or do you just wing it and go with the idea that it’s a fictional story and it is okay if it deviates from reality.

i write a lot of 1980's stuff. my go to are movies and TV shows. Especially Miami Vice when it comes to clothing, Also, music videos. Between Don johnson and madonna you got the 80's styles down

I just submitted part three of Take My Breath Away. I have a couple of idead perking about, but I think i will concentrate on the next install of Mira, or a second Mandi series

late to the party but I'll take a look. If you are not using google docs, it's a great way to share

Echoing the above comments, I don't think there's a perfect way to do it. Sure, Strap-On Sex arguably belongs under Toys, and Horror and Monster Sex seem an unnecessary dichotomy ... and where's the split between those and Supernatural? Also, why have the vague "Occupations" when most of those stories could either go under Uniform, Medical or Office Sex?

And all sex involving four or more people is supposed to be in Group Sex? That can include orgies (have written that), gangbangs (just wrote that), circle jerks (ditto), bukkake (story planned) and swinging (just wrote that too, although Swinging gets its own genre for some reason), all of which have separate appeal.

Then again, I love that Cuckold and Wife Lovers are separate, because even though the physical acts tend to be about the same, the emotional dynamic can be vastly different. Not to mention the appeal: Cuckold and its related degradation are a pretty hard turnoff to me, while Wife Lovers/hotwife action is a pretty hard on.

In any event, these are the categories we have, and for which hundreds of authors have intentionally written stores. Like Kimmi said, maybe the ambiguity of the categories is a good thing. God knows I wouldn't have much to write about if my own sexuality was cut-and-dried.

indeed. is a hotwife story wife lover or cuck?

I will

Obviously immediate relations are IF, and I will assume aunts, uncles, nephews, and nieces. First cousins, probably because that's the legal ines. what bout second cousins, and steps? is a stepssibling I.F. or ?

use a program like paint shop pro to strip the metadata . if it's from an Iphone, To automatically strip metadata when sharing photos, tap the Share button > Options at the top of the screen, and toggle off All Photos Data. To remove location data from an existing photo, open it, tap the Info (i) icon, select Adjust Location, and tap No Location.

Google is your friend for other methods, like android or DSLR

Isn't that where safe words come into play? Granted, my exposure to that lifestyle was limited, but the whole purpose was to push your boundaries, and your safe word was the ejection handle. If that is not acceptable, the whole D/S part of BDSM is disallowed, IMHO.

writing Mira 4

Leaving this here....

I'm bouncing a few multichapter stories. and OP, the question about multi as opposed to one long one.. there are several discussions and the consensus is 3000-4000 range-ish so if you have a 7K story make it 2 10 K make if 3 or 4

I just had a glitch where I went to preview my submission and got a page not found. reloaded and it's fine. could be anything from a page cache issue to the VPN to Cloudflare glitching. not complaining. There's another website I've been doing research on where you literally have to set the search filters, hit search, get a nothing found then reload to get the listing. Now THAT'S a glitchy/poor-performing website.

Unless you want to make the category go beyond 10K words, or maybe instead of a story make the "novel" a SERIES.

I want to write but i have been staring at a blank screen for 4 days...

Taj is in the cooldown for publish, that will be followed by Megan and Dancing With myself

A few online friends know. Unfortunately, my son saw part of one story; fortunately, nothing terribly explicit, just a lesbian kiss. The brat wandered into my office while I was making tea.

I go both ways. I wrote a couple that were just long, 13K words, and broke it up, then I had one that was 3 parts, looking like 4, maybe 5 or 6, because I love the characters

I get suggestions from Grammarly about Knelt, as opposed to kneeled. Apparently, I'm part Brit, I prefer knelt

I'm in the world-building camp. I've dropped a few 7K stories. In fact, Take My Breath Away is so long that there will be at least 4 parts. As far as the "Get to the sex" camp, take that with a grain of salt. For every person who says, " Let Jim fuck Jill, there is another one or two who want to know WHY Jim is fucking Jill.

The advice to keep them short is positive; 1500-3000 words is right (based on the stories I have done and the views they have garnered). I will give you 2 bits of advice: Don't use AI, the mods know, and a lot of readers know. 2. Write what you want to write and how you want to write it. If you are not enjoying the writing "to fit in," then honestly, don't, if it doesn't make you happy

Thanks. Looks like I didn't scroll down enough

OK, I know this thread is old, and I think there have been a few revisions since the last post.. but how do I pull a published story? I don't see a button or anything. There is one glaring misspell, and I want to add it to a series

Stanley Tucchi's grilled cheese.

I used sourdough bread, thick-cut (Quarter-inch) slice fresh mozzarella, pesto, and baby spinach. Prosciutto

Mira part 3 is out, Nikki Part 2 under review, Take My Breath Away part 3 in the wings. TMBA has expanded, expect 6 parts.

dang i can't even to 100 words.. you want 75?!?!?

Are the 'story moderators', the people who check all the stories that are submitted for publication, or only moderate the comments relating to a story?

If they check the stories, there are only 28 people in the "Meet the Team" list.

There must be dozens of stories submitted daily, and if it only these people to read and correct errors, before approval, then this is a massive achievement.

Many of them are authors themselves, with 100+ stories written and published.

All of them must have lives outside LushStories.

The only story I have submitted was edited by curvygalore, who, when finished, sent me a copy of the story showing all her editing.

Thank you all 'The Teams' for the great work you do and the great story site.

wow, that is seriously above and beyond. the mods who have touched mine say what the did but never a copy.. I'm impressed

What I would do is make the changes, then in the note to the moderator box jot down what you were doing

Quote by KimmiBeGood

I created my own forum post where I order the categories and put my stories in each and posted a link on my profile. It was more for me, but helpful a few times when readers asked if I had any stories in certain categories.

I made a spreadsheet, but I like the post idea

I think it's become expected, just like the choking thing. it's all you see on pornhub.
