Finally got something moving

Had an idea yesterday that appears to have pulled me out of a funk I’ve been in.  I’d almost 1k words in, and it’s flowing nicely.

This is a story for the Literotica Halloween contest, and I suspect it will be done in a couple of days at the most.  As usual, I’ll hold off and submit it to post on Friday morning, because that’s when I get the most reads.

Now with that out of the way =P

Yeah, if you read any of that, you see what happens when someone has an agenda.

Anyway, that idea I had for the Lush Autumn Equinox contest just wasn’t working.  I tried coming at it from several angles, but something was always wrong.  Mostly, I didn’t like how the premise reflected badly upon Wicca – even though I had it in my head to stress that the people professing as practitioners were posers at best.

I have a couple of ideas for the Lit Halloween contest, though.  We’ll see how those pan out.  One would be group sex, while the other would be MILF.

More once I see how the ideas are congealing.

Ahh… gonna let it go.

I had a nice idea at the last minute for a Halloween story.  The problem is, I had it at the last minute.

I’ve entered way too many stories recently in Lit’s contests at the last second with only a first pass edit.  Decided I’m not going to do it this time.

In addition, I really need more time to work the hook in to a story that meets my suspension of disbelief bar.  My stories aren’t meant to be likely, but they do have to be possible, and I like to avoid certain cliches if I can.  The first idea I had ( group sex ) and this one ( 1on1 Milf ) both ran afoul of that issue.

I think with enough time to mull them over, I can work them into stories I’ll be happy with.  Time is something I simply don’t have this year to make the Halloween contest.

So, rather than fighting them and entering something inadequately edited, I’m going to shelve them for next year.  Instead, I’m going to put any writing time I have into Winter Holiday stories.

Lush getting a couple new ones

Put a couple of new stories in the queue at Lush yesterday.  I’m sort of surprised they’re not up yet.  Stories seem to be trickling onto the front page the last 24 hours.

That could be a good thing, as stories can bounce off the front page pretty quickly, causing big drops in readership.  On the other hand, if they don’t come up pretty soon, they’re going to run into the graveyard of late Saturday and Sunday, which will kill the readership anyway.

Oh well.  Live and learn.  I’ll bump all submissions back to at least Thursday to avoid this possibility in the future.

Working on a new one for Halloween now.  Milf + Group sex.  Going to up the ante a little on this one.  You’ll see what I mean when it posts — if I can finish it in time.  Probably will push it off to next year if I don’t finish it in time to submit by Monday night at midnight for the Literotica contest.

Have an idea for Christmas that’s delving into new taboo territory as well.  One of several Thanksgiving/Christmas ideas I have that I hope I’ll have time to write.

Is this thing on?

Sorry about the radio silence.  Too much going on to write or write about it.  Not much better now.

I will be posting a couple of my Halloween stories to Lush later this week, though.  “Boned” and “A Trick a Treat” will probably go up on Thursday and Friday.

Have an idea for one this year, but have no idea if the world is going to cooperate to let me get the damn thing written.  If I don’t pull it off in time for the Literotica contest, I’ll probably just let it sit for next year.
