I have currently read, liked and commented on 38 of the competition stories (there are over 50 atm) and can concur that the standard is exceptionally high. I don't envy the judges. Here is a link to my effort: A Brush With Fate. Just disregard the 3 arms on the cover photo. 😈🤣 I honestly never noticed, concentrating on the words rather than the cover picture. 😳 A lesson learned! 🤣🤣

Well done Dave, likes and comments keep us all going and I would encourage every entrant to read, leave a like if you like the story and above all, to leave a meaningful comment. You'll find that most people will reciprocate.

Oh s**t, I didn't even intend that pun. LOL. My story does involve a lot of anal, too. 🤣

We should run an all-anal competition called 'Anal Stories Series' or A.S.S.

Dear friends, I'd like to take this opportunity to announce the posting of my entry, 'Kallitechnia.' A story set in a time and place of great artistic achievement: ancient Athens in the mid-5th century B.C. The people you will meet there are denizens of the Kerameikos, the disreputable and vibrant Potters' Quarter, which produced many works of art that are prized by museums and collectors today...

Quote by Seeker4

Could still happen, I guess. Right now, I'm kind of out at sea. And I've never done a heavy metal chick but it is a fantasy of mine. 😉

Did somebody say "metal chick"?

"Beauty perishes in life but is immortal in art."

• Leonardo da Vinci.

"Art is a lie that makes us realize truth."

• Pablo Picasso.

"No limit may be set to art and neither is there any artist who is fully master of his craft."

• From The Instructions of Ptahotep c.2030 B.C.

No, as Kistin says, it's not a format we support here, but you can get creative, like my recent attempt at "Manga comic prose" in Takemi.

As for suggestions, most storylines have been written. But even the most tried and tested storyline can be given a fresh lick of paint and feel new.

'Get creative,' now why didn't I think of that? Lol. 'Nekomusume' my recent anime/manga style story has me all manga-ed out. Btw I've read Takemi.

Quote by Mit

What story plot would you like Lush authors to write about that has not been published here? Take note, of course, only within site rules.

Just about every plot line you can think of has been published here at one time or another but some genres are much better represented these days than others.

We are as much prone to fads and fashions here as is any other creative or social space. Mystery, satire, comedy and that great old invalid genre, Historical, don't seem to be as popular with Lush authors any more. I've never seen a story written in play format (dialogue and scenes with stage directions) on Lush although I tried to produce something like it in the 'Dirty Talk' competition.

Finally, if you find yourself at loose ends, you might might like some of my efforts in the above genres. All of these were competition entries : Embrace The Distant Stars (sci-fi mystery), I Fuck for Satan (satire), Midnight Satin (historical comedy).

Heartiest congratulations to my fellow winners:

Elowen - Waterfall.

TheShyThespian - Bonfire.

LinaDS2025 - Fireworks.

And a huge well done to all who entered and/or read the entries. Many thanks again to Kimmi and to the judges. For me, nothing demonstrates the strong spirit of community that we have here on Lush better than fun competitions like this.

The June Writing Challenge, Piquet's Valedictory Sonnet...

Fireworks bursting, spreading, fading,

Girls as mermaids masquerading,

Fishy fins, marine seduction

Followed fast by oral suction.

Licking, lusting, longing, yearning,

Bouquets on beach bonfires burning.

By lushly languid waterfalls

With dripping cunts and aching balls,

We read tales of souls united,

Love fulfilled and unrequited

In the cauldron of desire;

The heart of that undying fire

Where beauties dance, shake and shimmy

Thanks to our beloved Kimmi.

It stands to reason that a master baiter will catch more fish and therefore end up with fishier fingers than a baiter of ordinary qualification.

The Shape of Things to Cum

December 31st. 2100. 11:58 pm.

A holographic nude girl appeared before him.

"Breed my trashy little teen slut-hole, Daddy."

"Lush, pause program."

He scrolled down past his fifty-two badges, including his pride and joy, 'Ai Assassin.'

Blonde, 18-21, blue eyes...

- "Lush, give her a heart-shaped pubic triangle and make her wet...wetter and resume."

But just then, his wall-sized holo-screen announced,

"Happy New Year 2101, Lush member galacticmonstercock69. Welcome to the 22nd century!

On-screen Fireworks.

(Waterfall)

Three Tanka

(Author's Note : Fleeing their warring clans, a samurai and his beloved journey through tranquil mountains...)

*

She. In the summer heat

You have quenched our aching thirst.

Now witness passion,

Stately mountain waterfall.

Our joys will flow like your stream.

*

He. Say nothing of this

Fierce and forbidden love,

O fair waterfall.

Let only the old pines hear

What the ancient rocks have seen.

*

Together. Remember our sighs

In the moonlight and at noon,

As the owl awakes

And as shrill cicadas call,

O well-beloved waterfall.

(bonfire)

Orbit

As Earth orbits the sun, so Emily orbited the roaring bonfire. All summer, she had been living with her surfers in the sunshine. Each night, after the surf had calmed, after the sun had set, she circulated amongst her lovers. The sea's sensual hands had caressed them by day. By night, Emily kissed, sucked, and fucked each of them in a cosmic circle. By summer's end, nothing remained except dead embers amidst the sighing dunes.

Hello, smut writers! Let’s fill June with fabulous sexy shorts.

About your judges… There will be a different judge for each picture. Not my family this time. Nor me. Other writers. You can only win once, even though you can submit an entry for each picture. If more than 1 judge picks the same author as the winner, I’ll decide which picture that author won, and other judges will pick another winner. :)

Get creative. Why are they in that setting? Who else is there? Tell a story!

Clarification: poetry is acceptable in this one

Let’s create, sexy peeps! ❤️

Pictures follow below:

Ok, Kimmi, am I correct in assuming that poetry, author's notes and titles are all acceptable?

Abukir

I told them how you saved me, and they thought me insane. Now in my decrepitude, I can still hear the cannons and taste the sea. You raised my broken body onto that unknown shore, breathed new life into me, and I saw your opalescent flesh, turquoise eyes, perfect breasts, and hips. You claimed my seed and my heart. You vanished into the waves, and no longer did I fear the bloodied Bay of Abukir.

(Historical Note : The Battle of Abukir Bay was fought during the Napoleonic Wars in 1798.)

Quote by Seeker4

I could go for time travel. Go into the past and become my own father. Nice weird twist on IF.

Great idea, just don't put in 'historical paradox' as a tag or you'll drive readers away in droves.

Difficult to choose, you're hot all over, but I voted 'smile'.

I'm thrilled to see three of my favourite stories taking the honours. Congratulations Rowan, Genny and WW. Well deserved. Well done to all who entered, particularly the first time entrants and a personal thanks to everyone who read and commented on my entry, I'm humbled and grateful.

Our down to earth writing

Saw fierce passions igniting,

Much lusting and sweating

In some sleazy low setting,

With fine airs and with graces,

We got come-covered faces,

Delicious plugged derrieres,

Thick rampant red pussy hairs,

Licking, slurping and drooling,

Juices dripping and pooling

From pussies hungry and wet

Stuffed with cocks loaded and set

To shoot with groans and a gush,

In the best traditions of Lush.

Striving to feel creative juices freed,

Our authors' labours bear meagre fruits indeed

Until your patient, calm and indulgent eye

Reads words of ardour and lets passions fly.

Lust, longing, and pure radiant release

Await us all in each competing piece

Along with beauty in its varied forms,

At once delighting and transcending norms.

So read now and be generous in your praise

For what else is it that makes our authors' days?

Richly deserved Rowan. Well done.

Quote by TheShyThespian

Or the disallowance of AI entries has put some off, perhaps...?

Frankly, I haven't a clue what an Ai story looks like, much less reads like. Why don't we capture one for educational purposes and put it on display (in a cage, of course) in the Forum, (clearly labeled as potentially dangerous)

Ok, so from now on, all my competition entries are going to be set between The Orkneys and Hadrian's Wall.

Quote by Shyexhibitionist

Would you like to expand on “She’s Scottish??” I am intrigued 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😉

Quote by wxt55uk

Well, my story is in. The Beauty Within

As I mentioned above, I had two genres to write in for my omnium badge. Now it is down to one. This story has been published in the Trans genre, and therefore is very different for me. I hope you enjoy it.

Now, I will be reading, liking and commenting on all the other Elements competition entries. 😊

Needless to say I loved the story Dave. But with regard to 'different,' not only did you do a marvellous job writing this but I think this is a great 'gateway' story for those who might not have ventured far into the Trans genre before.

Mesdames et Messieurs, it gives me great pleasure to announce that my entry in the 'Elements' competition is now posted. 'Winter Days at Fontainebleau' is the intriguing, decades-spanning story of one woman's efforts to solve a bizarre mystery. Join Elodie de Monteclair as she searches for answers amidst the splendour and magnificence of the Château de Fontainebleau.

Winter Days At Fontainebleau | Lush Stories

Quote by LordCephius

I was blocked! I've started a paragraph for new chapters for each of my serial stores. I couldn't face sitting down and writing! I skipped the last two Lush contests, even though I came up with good ideas. This one I just couldn't pass up. My Feburary Tropical Vacation was still fresh on my mind. My writer's block lasted years. I think my muse is back! Best wishes.

In the past, I've found that writer's block most often hits when you sit down in front of a blank screen and try to force the story out. What works for me is to think about a story and, throughout the day (or night), jot down any interesting words, phrases, character names, or sentences that come to mind. I often do this during breaks at work using my phone's notepad app. This takes the pressure off me and allows the story or poem to grow and develop gradually. Otherwise, it can be like sitting in an exam room at high school, staring at a blank exam paper.

Quote by MC1982

Still trying to think of an idea that fits 'steampunk', my last genre for omnium (I think). Crickets, so far! 😢

Until I joined this thread, I thought Omnium was a washing powder.
