I'd double down on the hand job for the sheer novelty of it. I've only been in that situation once before, and let me tell you, that memory has been withdrawn from the spank bank more than for any of the countless blowies I've had. Hell, I think I've... looked back with fondness on that encounter more times than I've actually had my cock sucked.
I think the approach you're taking is a good one. It's really too much to dress every line of dialogue - or worse still, first person narrative - in the accent/dialect of your character. It makes it much harder to read and can be quite annoying. The odd sprinkle here and there is more than enough to convey the style of speech.
The reality is that we don't speak the way we write. If we did, we'd sound like we were on the set of Downton Abbey. And if we wrote the way we speak, literature would look like a Gen-Y's text message history. for example, the opening line of one of my stories, Warning Order, is, "Are you all right, Mate?" But what the character actually said is, "You right, Mate?"
Having said that, there are exceptions to the rule where very skilled and talented authors can pull off writing all the dialogue or even the whole story in stylised language. As moderators, we'll allow dialogue. However, the entire first person narrative will be very closely scrutinised and likely debated backstage, so it'll need to be flawless to even have a chance.
Stories are definitely better than porn. The biggest sex organ we have is between our ears, and stimulating the imagination is the best way to get off... if you're not actually getting off with someone else. Even then sometimes.
I've seen more than my fair share of porn and the hardcore stuff that gets right down to the good bit, maybe with a brief interview with the starlet beforehand, is certainly the best to look at. But for me, the story that leads to two, or many many more people banging was missing.
And, oh my God, the pissweak porn where the performers furrow their brows and pout as they act there little hearts out is a real boner killer, to say nothing of the mediocre bash at it after.
Definitely the stories.
I haven't collaborated with anyone here yet, but I did team up with a publisher in the States to ghost write some werewolf erotica a few years back. They gave me the plots and I wrote them out, fleshing out the odd bit here and there based on their feedback.
I'd love to work with some of the authors here on Lush in more of an equal partnership. Of course, any of the heavy hitters I follow, or any of the other story mods, are a given. And there's plenty of other talented writers here I'd be excited to work with too.
Just waitin' for the right opportunity...
Happy birthday, Old Mate! I hope you have an awesome day up there, heaving with good things and great people. All the best.
Sorry, Billy Boy, I'm gonna take a pass.
Happy birthday, Mate! I hope you have a cracker and get right amongst it. All the very best to you!
Passengers with Jennifer Lawrence and that other guy. Bit of a sci-fi love story. I really enjoyed it.
Congratulations to the winners and finalists! Played hard, done good.
I did my best to get through them all, and of course, I'll keep going. But the judges... To actually read them all and be able to sort out the winners... You guys deserve the biggest congratulations.
There were a lot of fun entries this time around. But I was most surprised, and impressed, by the quality of writing from so many writers here on Lush. My following authors list is going to blow out something shocking now! Really great work everyone.
I most recently watched Sully. As a big Air Crash Investigation and Tom Hanks fan, I was excited to see it. Unfortunately I came out the other side a little disappointed. I think both Tom and the film tried too hard.
I was all up in Claudia Schiffer's business back in the day, with a couple of posters and a little too much effort to get my hands on newspaper and magazine shoots of her, including the long-range grainies of her topless with David Copperfield.
But it's Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington for me by far. Damn!
I'd really like it if the story tags were displayed at the bottom of the story instead of up the top. They're hard to ignore sometimes and it can really be a spoiler in some cases, ruining the suspense.
Those who can't help themselves or who otherwise might be a little sensitive to certain subject matter can still give the tags at the end of a story a quick skim before they start reading.
I've been with around thirty sex workers in my time. About half a dozen of those worked independently from rented apartments in the city, ten or so on out calls to my place and the rest in hotels. While most of those were escorts from a brothel, I've never actually been to one.
It's an intimidating proposition to walk through the doors, to say nothing of getting out to the industrial areas where they're usually located. I was advised by one of the girls I saw to ask for the private introductions if I ever went because all the girls swarm clients as soon as they step inside. There's often a criminal element hanging around as well from what I hear, either providing security and/or drugs. Of course, all my info is ten years old. It might be different now.
I was going to go to one in Brisbane on a business trip a few years back, their prostitution laws conspiring to make it the best option at the time. However, the three o'clock driver changeover made it near impossible to get a cab. Making matters worse, some jackass waiting in the queue outside the hotel took it upon himself to organise all of us into ride sharing groups, asking us all where we were going. I slunk back upstairs with my tail between my legs rather than team up with a disapproving grandmother on her way home.
I always liked the darker shades. Bright reds for dressing up and/or going out, and something a little more muted for everyday. The light pinks and glosses really don't do it for me.
But having said that, I'll take whatever I can get. If she feels good in dark, light or nothing at all, I'm there. What's most important about her lips is that they're curled up in the corners.
I think it would be great if replies to story comments would appear on the What You've Missed list for the author of the comment, as when someone clicks "Like" on a comment.
Happy birthday, Mate! I hope you have a cracker. And may you be up to your ass in Wookiees. All the best.
Some really good advice here. Thanks for posting.
Oh, I'll definitely be doing the dominating. Grrr.
