Congratulations to the winners! They were fantastic stories!
Well done too to the rest of the top ten, and everyone else who submitted an entry. There were some really great stories that didn't get a mention, but should absolutely get a read.
And a big thank you to the judges as well. I know my wife's eternally grateful that I won't be coming at her with an Ida in my hand and a twinkle in my eye.

Your final tally: ###
If you're in the mood, you'll be the sub, but you tend to take on the dominant role in the relationship. Whether your partner just enjoys pleasuring you or they (or you) have serious psychological problems is up for you to probe on your own time. Otherwise, sit back, relax, and let them do your bidding. Power is quite the comfy throne (remember to give up your seat once in a while).

Sounds about right.
Oh, I see. So it's up to me to be the honest one, huh?
Sure, I'll lay some groundwork, put the time in, make sure everyone's having fun. But it's all about getting to Poundtown.
Seriously, good__girl, you need to find some better guys. As the boys above me have said, the longer the tease, the slower the build up, the bigger the bang. Taking your time to savour every delicious curve, heightening the tension until you just can't take it anymore...I hope that's what Heaven's like.
Sit down on the couch and put my feet up. Sorry, I overdid it at breakfast and am feeling a bit blah.
Lush authors are brilliant writers.
Let me clean up first. Then you can...
What Mazza said.
You are worth more than this. You deserve more. It's okay to treat yourself with respect.
Good luck.
Will Smith is a brilliant actor, and Ice Cube definitely stole the show in the remake of 21 Jump Street. But for my money, Vanilla Ice playing himself in That's My Boy is the one to beat.
It's situation and location specific. At home alone in bed with time/energy for a shower afterwards, on my stomach. Otherwise, if I'm about to go to sleep, I'll nut into a pair of undies. And if it's a hotel by myself, I'll just come in the sheets and roll over.
If my wife shoots me down in the morning, I'll slink off to the bathroom and either use a handful of toilet paper, or maybe just blow in the shower. It depends how the mood takes me.
We have two big dogs, but regrettably my wife also came with a cat. The things we do for love...
Thanks for the brush up, Danny.
Tell her you'll do the dishes when you get home, and then actually do it. Trust me, there won't be enough lemons in the world to wipe the smile off your face.
Technology definitely helps. I quite literally couldn't write without it. Although I do need to explore some options for capturing random thoughts when they arise, because my memory isn't quite up to the task.
I think the ability to filter what I receive on my Friends Activity Feed would be a great feature.
For example, some friends have great taste in stories, and I'd like to know what they've voted and commented on. But their incessant posting in the Last Post Wins forum is flooding my feed. Similarly, some friends are fantastic wise asses in the forums, but I'm not interested in their story choices. And others I may just want to limit to blog updates etc.
I don't know how you'd do it, maybe a grid?
I've done an FFM, and it was as hot as shit. But I found myself getting along better with one of the women and only really being interested in her. The other one was a bit standoffish, and after she jacked me off onto her friend after an hour or so, she just left us to it. I find the dynamics of three people often leads to one being left out.
Having said that, I tend to prefer an MMF as a fantasy. There's something more raw and primal about it that really gets me going. But I don't know that I have the stones to try it in real life though.

I don't have to have seen and/or liked it, do I?
I don't think you can help but put yourself into your own stories. Even when you're basing a character on someone else, it's your interpretation and your perception of them.
But in answer to your question, I prefer to write in male first person, and it's pretty much me each time. Sometimes it's more of me than others, and I'm reacting, thinking and feeling differently to different situations, but for all intents and purposes, it's me.
I've written a female first person story, which was incredibly hard, because you know, I have a penis. But even then, I injected elements of my own personality into her. I've got to write another one now, with a much younger, emotionally flighty main character. I'll be casting back to when I was a lot more impulsive and knew everything to write her, with plenty of observation thrown in for good measure.
The other characters in my stories, while sometimes based on real people, are really just the stimulus for my main character (me) to react to. I take a lot more licence with them to drive the story.
Oh my God! I just finished watching. What the fuck?!
My blood is boiling. I can't believe how much of a psycho that Governor is. Excuse me, was. That was nowhere near enough a satisfying end for him. Although I do love that it was the nurse who finished him off.
As for the rest of those sheeple who just followed him into evil. Seriously, that's so disappointing. Sure, it's a zombie apocalypse and everything, but strap on a pair and have some integrity. If I was in their camp, I'd be smiling politely and getting the fuck out of there. You make a good point, Doll, new guy + dead leaders = very bad things.
Speaking of, do you think Rick did the right thing? I know his hand was forced when Hershel was murdered, but... My first thought was to invite everyone else but the Governor to join them. No way the forgive and forget routine was ever going to work. Give the others an out and isolate him. Convince them he's a psycho and take away their reason to fight.
Then I was thinking, fine, just give up the prison and leave. Live to fight another day and all that. Not that he could be trusted, but still. Fighting was always going to be a lose-lose situation.
Yeah, I don't know about the baby. That could go either way. If she is dead, they'll need an eye witness to confirm it when they all get back together. Oh, I can't believe we have to wait until February. That sucks ass! I know the high production values are taking a toll, but, man, I'm gagging for it!
Hey, if I can have a bit of a nerd moment, has anyone else noticed how it never seems to rain on the show?
