This isn't a writing contest. There are no winners, or at least no prizes. This is an author-organised challenge: write a story on a particular theme. Erotic is good. Sexy is good. Dark is good too. Be creative, bring your unique touch, and revel in the sense of community.
Thank you for your reply and comments. Normally I don't enter challenges -- I find it difficult to come up with a story idea on a specific theme -- but in this instance I happened to be working on a dark fairy tale anyway. I'll see about submitting it to the challenge before deadline. However, I'm not still completely certain that I will. It most certainly is a dark story -- I remain concerned however that it's not sexy or erotic. But we'll see how it turns out.
I think we can still differ by themes and settings. The dark fairytale is more of a setting than a theme. It offers a lot of flexibility.
This came up so quick. Had an idea, as you know. Will try to turn it into something

I think Sci-Fi & Fantasy will be the main category. But for the 750-word challenge I wrote a fairy tale and put it in T/I.
I have at least half a dozen fairy tales that are unfinished, and the event is getting close very fast...This came up so quick. Had an idea, as you know. Will try to turn it into something
If there aren't any disembodied heads you can make one. Personally I prefer the new, creative stories over another Snow-white. I've had enough of reruns and callbacks in modern media. Give me that sweet uniqueness in your story!
It is always interesting to read comments where people complain about the same olde tropes and say ‘nothing new here’. Then read comments on other stories that complain the author left the train tracks and went too far afield.
My seductive fantasy character lures men into the forest and dances with them until they drop dead. I changed the scene to an enchanting glade where the guy finds her naked. He gets naked and wades into a pool, hoping to get close enough to capture her. He hugs her in the water and thinks he succeeded. But she reaches down, guides his cock into her, and wraps her legs tightly around his back. They struggle in the pool until he realizes that she is stronger than he is and it is she that has captured him. Nearly exhausted, he remembers the legend, and tries the one thing that might save him.
I have debated over this for sometime whether to submit as Erotic Horror or Sci-Fi. However due to the sapphic nature of my protagonists I am submitting to Lesbian Sex, although it is steeped in a dark fairy tale it is truly a sapphic romance ... so
My fairytale character (a female) interacts (I mean sex) with four main characters, one of which is female. At the end, the fairytale character gets the female main character (happily). I had considered Lesbian Sex, but I'm not sure how earlier sex with three males would play in that category.I have debated over this for sometime whether to submit as Erotic Horror or Sci-Fi.

There is no limit as far as I can tell . The host was even teasing multiple stories. Go ahead and post both!
