Now that I have more time to devote to writing and some stories are nearing completion, I have been tempted to submit stories to Literotica again.
Consider that temptation well and thoroughly quashed.
In a recent forum thread, a new poster began asking questions about sex being painful for his girlfriend and what they could do. He received quite a few helpful replies including suggestions on some medical conditions that may responsible. As the conversation progressed, he admitted that he was 19 and his girlfriend is 16 years old, adding a new facet to the conversation. His girlfriend's age may mean that her body just isn't ready for sex yet.
Suddenly, the rules lawyers jumped in and started screaming bloody murder. OMG! Someone under 18 had sex!?! SHUT DOWN THIS THREAD!!!
I called bullshit and clearly pointed out there is nothing in the forum rules against the topic and that the forum rules are not the same as the submission guidelines. You can't have underage sex in stories, but you can discuss it in a non-erotic manner as a topic of conversation. Certainly, someone asking for sex-related medical advice deserves an exemption.
I was disgusted with the cowardice at Literotica for shutting down that thread. That's all I can say. What a lot of shameful, disgusting cowards. People like that truly disgust me.
I know my absence won't even be noticed over there, but I'll be damned if I'm going to contribute in even a small way to those assholes. They can rot in hell as far as I'm concerned. Bastards.
I'm making steady progress on the "white master, black slave" series (which isn't the actual name of the series, btw). I'm working on chapter 4 now. What I could use is a proofreader to look for spelling errors, dropped words, inconsistencies. Nothing big.
If you're interested in a sneak peek and you're willing to help me out, contact me by e-mail.
I still receive e-mail from people praising Terminator, With Love and asking me when the next installment will be out.
I've tried to write it, but the sad truth is I haven't seen season 2 of the series yet. :( Yes, very embarrassing, I'm sorry. Until I can shell out the bucks to get the season 2 DVD, I'm afraid there's no way I can continue the story (believe me, I've tried).
Writing Terminator, With Love has always been about weaving the sexual antics into the story of the show. It makes the story more believable and it helps the reader immerse themselves in the fiction that's already been created.
Don't worry, there will be more to come. I have my own plans for John, Cameron and Sarah. The series is just on hold ... for now.
A forum poster at some other erotic fiction site requested a story about a white slave master who takes advantage of his black slaves. While the subject matter is quite salacious and of questionable taste (okay, poor taste), I've decided to write the story as my next series.
I have actually been thinking about doing this for several weeks (perhaps months). Reading this request has been the impetus I need to put pen to paper (or finger to keyboard as it were) and bring the story to fruition.
However, I'm not much of a history buff, especially American history. I read the autobiography of Frederick Douglass, but other than that, I'm not well versed in the life on the plantation of the 19th century American South. So, to get up to snuff, I've started reading the work of Frederic Law Olmsted.
Olmsted is well known in my area as a landscape architect as he designed many prominent parks. However, I never knew he was a journalist earlier in his life (which is embarrassing because I, too, was a journalist at one time). Olmsted worked for the New York (Daily) Times and he toured the American South from Maryland to Texas chronicling the life of slaves and slave owners. Although against slavery, his work is considered accurate and object by both abolitionists and slavers of the day.
I'm about 120-some pages through it now. He gives many accounts about how slavery works, the daily life and schedule of a slave, details of plantation life and the economy of slavery. I feel pretty good about applying these details to my story.
Hey, I need a title for my story. I'm using White Master, Black Slave as a working title, but I really don't want that to be the final title. Please send any suggestions my way.
