For the LOVE OF SMUT, write your story descriptions like you would prefer that someone ACTUALLY READS YOUR STORY. And yes, the entry title is telling you that you have a literary limp dick if you bungle the simple task of writing an interesting story description.
Please read the article "So You Want to Write a Story" by Asa Strong on the Authors/Editors page. The relevant section has the subtitle, "4. Writing a Story Description."
I, myself, do not claim to be particularly proficient at writing good story descriptions. But I think my descriptions show that I at least try.
Authors: including the word "adventure" in the description is not convincing (to me anyways) that the story is actually an adventure. You might as well simply say "This story is good." Yes, it is that weak.
I really do not require much in a story description. But a description in the bloody story description would be nice. You know?
Let me provide an example of a story description that I find effective. "Odd little tale about prospecting. Not a single word of truth in it." ["Sunny Corner" - Old Man With A Pen] The key word in this description is "prospecting." Why the very word brings up images of a grey haired man leading a mule with a shovel and pickax strapped to its back. I immediately start attaching concepts to the story such as the uncontrolled lust for sudden wealth. It sounds dangerous with the potential of unknown and and hidden villains seeking to steal the treasure of the rough but virtuous prospector.
By adding "odd, little tale" the author informs me that he is not taking him or his story too seriously and he intends to use an unusual style. And, the quirky style of the story description informs me that the author will try to do something different in his writing. He is not satisfied with a stale, straight-forward approach of stating fictional facts. I can look forward to him astounding me with his use of the written language to new planes of wonder by artfully crafting events, attitudes, reactions and moral conclusions. (Yes, perhaps I have overused hyperbole, but I hope I have made an understandable point.)
See? I don't really ask for much. Simply put some thought into your description. Do not include any background information, unless the background is the reason that the story is actually interesting, and even then be as brief and concise as possible. And for smut's sake, do not put any disclaimers there.
The potential readers are asking you, "What makes your story more interesting than my mundane life?" And us, readers have a ten word, initial attention span. Using the word "adventure" might just buy you an additional five words. But if you do not get to the point, readers will assume your story is as unworthy as your utter failure at writing a story description. I would hate for me and other readers to not read a good story because authors do not give proper planning and effort in drafting their story descriptions.
Thank you for your attention.
