Discussion Thread - 10th Annual Literotica Reader's Choice Awards

[sr71plt]

I've been reading all kinds of speculation about soular, including questions as to how she got nominated as most influential author, and various other questions and allegations against her. I'd like to make a couple of things clear to everyone. Soular is a person of unmatched integrity. She is exactly who she says she is, and she has done nothing to warrant the aspersions on her character that some have made.

Soular has not only played by the rules, she has bent over backwards to be fair to the other authors on Literotica, and I can vouch for that.

All four nominations in the present contest occurred before soular was even aware of the nomination process, so she obviously had nothing to do with gaining the nominations for herself. The nominations were legitimately submitted by her readers, and the nominations were fully justified, in my opinion, including the one for most influential author.

Soular has obviously had a great deal of influence on many of her readers, as is evidenced by the number of votes she is receiving for all four awards. She also has had a good deal of influence on more than a few of her fellow authors, who have indicated this to her privately, and sometimes publicly. If there are a few Literotica authors who weren't aware of her influence before, I hope that is no longer the case.

Soular deserves every nomination, every vote, and everyone's respect.

I probably really shouldn't be poking the lion on this, except that this posting goes directly to my own questioning. Soular's stories here may be pure gold and she may have inspired hundreds of other writers here in 2008--it's just that I don't see any evidence of it--which logic tells me I should see on Lit. when voting for the #1 writing influence for an entire year.

What exactly has she inspired you to do, for instance, in relationship to the Lit. writing community? This is your first post on the forum and you have no stories posted to Lit. Logic just begs that the most influential writer on Lit. for an entire year should have an impressive footprint on Lit. To the evidence that Soular has influenced your writing or caused that influence to span out from her through you, there's nothing here. Zilch. Not very influential, I would think.

She was nominated by multiple posters. The testimonials are great. Would be nice to see meat on the bones of one or two of them.

Of course it doesn't seem to be required, as she's doing very well in the voting. I'll have to agree with BFW, though, that to believe that none of the votes for her are in relationship to BFW's vote numbers, I'd have to have swigged an awfully large glass of Pollyana milk this morning.

I'll have as little belief in the efficacy of the contest voting if Soular wins than if BFW does. As far as I can see the only three with any public evidence of candidancy for the category are back in the dust on votes. Of course, I fully realize that it doesn't matter to anyone other than me what it reveals to me about the contest--nor should it. It's just that it's awfully hard to see postings like this and not laugh at the irony of it all.

Soular may not have inspired hundreds of other writers, but she obviously has inspired hundreds of readers, and they also count. The criteria for the award make that clear.

 

[Selena_Kitt]

Soular deserves every nomination, every vote, and everyone's respect.

I'm sure she does. Try not to pay attention to the very small (and very petty) contingency who may have maligned her accomplishments. Her numbers, and I hope, her stories, speak for themselves and will continue to do so.

Really, when it comes down to it, it's up to the voter to interpret what "influential" means to them.

And welcome to the boards.

That's great, and you can certainly use whatever you want as your voting criteria. Doesn't give any indication what that influence was or how it applies to Lit., however (and you certainly didn't answer the direct question, did you?). And, of course, it isn't "obvious." It's all hazy "stuff."

I'm not after Soular--just shining a light on a Web site that is even more fictional than anyone could have imagined. It's sort of fun watching so many play "let's pretend."

You don't "almost have to"--third person can remain from one character's perspective--and usually is within clearly deliniated sections.

Switching POV within a scene becomes rather schizo. The reader starts thinking he's hearing voices Now with 3rd person omniscient, you can switch POV from scene to scene. It sort of reads (to give a bad example... in terms of writing, at any rate) like Dan Brown's books. But switching WITHIN a scene creates that schizo feeling again.

Like anything, if done really really well, POV switches (even within one scene) CAN work. But that's more the exception than the rule.

The majority of my stories are in first person, and the narrator is an active participant in the activity. I have some stories where there is a primary character, such as David, Cindy Lou, Angel or sometimes somebody else. The action follows this character, and his or her thoughts and actions, switching sometimes to another character so the story can be followed.

I also write some stories where I switch POV back and forth among characters. Such as: Susie writhed with pleasure at the touch of Bill's tongue on her pussy. She had never felt such a sensation and ... and this continues for two or three paragraphs.

After that, a paragraph starts: Bill could hardly believe how delicious Susie's pussy juices were. Their aroma had been truly delectable, but their flavor was even better.......for two or three paragraphs.

Normally, I make it very clear, by using the character's name, that the POV has changed. Maybe I shouldn't be doing this, but I think it's the best way to write smut.

I agree, it is up to each voter to determine which writer was most influential for them, as a reader. Many, many people have written to soular privately to tell her how much they have been affected by her writing, not only from the standpoint of enjoyment, but in more profound ways as well. That matters, in my opinion.

Thank you for the welcome.

I think what is being posed here is that's too frenetic in switching POV for most. Selena said that this is something a copyeditor pounces on. As a professional copyeditor, I'll have to say that it's one of the first things that I'd pounce on--if I had a chance. Fiction publishers haven't given me any books to edit with this technique in it (although I've encountered it in some private edits). That may be making a significant point about what publishers select.

A week ago I posted this, in response to Scouries' huckstering for BFW:

I hate to say this, but Scabies has a certain point. Not enough people vote in the contest, and this has resulted in BFW leading as both the most influential author and the most influential poet. There must be enough of Scabies's and Freddie's alts and sycophants to produce this deplorable situation.

As far as I can see, BFW is about the LEAST influential author, and he is even less influential as a poet. Scabs says he has 671 stories, which is not true. He has 671 items posted, which includes poems and essays. Even so, there is an impressive amount of stuff posted, or there would be, except that it is mostly crap. What I have read so far are masses of drivel cut into segments of about 900 or 1,000 words and posted as chapters, in order to score high in the Survivors' Contest. He probably has twice as many so-called stories as I have, but I'm sure I have a lot more total words.

By the way, I don't claim to be an influential author either. I write almost strictly smut, because it is fun doing it, but I like to think it is well-written smut. Freddie doesn't even do that.

His "poems" are even worse. They appear to be groups of random words put into lines, without saying much of anything. Once again, they are no more than entries in the Survivors' Contest. I don't claim to be an influential poet either. Mostly I just write doggerel, but at least I have good meter and rhyme scemes. Freddie doesn't have anything.

So, what, if anything can be done by Ahers to prevent the debacle that threaterns us? I say we rally behind one author, probably one of the kittens, and all vote for her, but first decide which one. As for poets, Wicked Eve is in second place, although behind BFW, so let's all vote for her.

This may be somewhat unethical, but it's no worse than what BFW and Scabies are trying to do.

I meant it at the time, and I haven't changed my mind. I would consider it to be appalling for BFW to win either of these contests, for reasons stated above. I suggested that people get together behind another candidate. Many Feathers and Soular were well behind at the time, so I suggested one of the Kittens. Since that time, Soular has surged ahead, which is perfectly alright with me. I have nothing against her, although I was not familar with her work, or against MF. It was strictly a "Stop Freddie" kind of thing.

I don't know if it worked or not. He is now in third place in the author voting and a close second in the poet voting, so he has fallen behind. If this would have happened in the normal course of things is something I don't know.

 

[sr71plt]

I Many, many people have written to soular privately to tell her how much they have been affected by her writing, not only from the standpoint of enjoyment, but in more profound ways as well. That matters, in my opinion.

Hate to say it, but you're beginning to sound really, really close to Soular.

I have seen my dirty stories described as many things, some good and some bad, but I don't think I have ever seen them described as "frenetic" before. If you want to, you can look at a third person story to see what I mean.

It's not the stories that I said would be frenetic--it would be the frequent switches of POV within sections. Perhaps my choice of word wasn't clear enough.


And, hey, if your readers like your stories the way they are and you like to write them that way, that's fine with me.

 

[sacrificedangel]

Switching POV within a scene becomes rather schizo. The reader starts thinking he's hearing voices Now with 3rd person omniscient, you can switch POV from scene to scene. It sort of reads (to give a bad example... in terms of writing, at any rate) like Dan Brown's books. But switching WITHIN a scene creates that schizo feeling again.

Like anything, if done really really well, POV switches (even within one scene) CAN work. But that's more the exception than the rule.

This might be something I will have to look at...not sure If I am doing it in my stories, I just tend to write it as it comes to me, but for Corine or Thea for example, I am writing in the Third person, but in lets say Thea and the beach scene on Seren, there is a conversation going on in the tent between Ash and Colter, but the scene is basically shared between the characters, where you get to hear thoughts from the pair in the same scene. Is that wrong or am I just picking you up incorrectly?

Is that wrong or am I just picking you up incorrectly?

The general rule today is - stay in ONE person's head during a scene, even when using third-person and omniscient. True omniscient POV isn't used much anymore. Limited omniscient is the preferred POV if you're using omniscient... meaning, you're in one person's head, or at least, one at a time (with clear scene breaks between!)

Which means, if you're in Corine's head... stay there. You can't hear Thea's thoughts in that scene, period. If you want the reader to know something Thea is thinking - she needs to say it. Or imply it somehow through action. Or Corine needs to wonder if she's thinking it.

Or wait until the next scene, when you can switch POV to Thea's head if you want.

But I would suggest not switching scenes back and forth too often, either. IOW, don't switch scenes every few lines or so. That's just as crazy-making.

"Frenetic" is exactly the word - if you are in everyone's head during the scene, it becomes way too fast-paced for readers to keep up. And they often give up. Which sucks for you and your otherwise great story and for the reader.

=BoxlickerI also write some stories where I switch POV back and forth among characters. Such as: Susie writhed with pleasure at the touch of Bill's tongue on her pussy. She had never felt such a sensation and ... and this continues for two or three paragraphs.

After that, a paragraph starts: Bill could hardly believe how delicious Susie's pussy juices were. Their aroma had been truly delectable, but their flavor was even better.......for two or three paragraphs.

Yeah, that's the sort of POV switch that isn't quite as crazy-making as doing it every few lines... but in terms of publication, it's something publishers, and copyeditors, just don't like to see within the same scene. If you're in Susie's head... you gotta stay there or you risk driving readers nuts.

So, in limited omniscient, if you want to describe how awesome she tastes - it's gonna have to be from her own POV.

You know, BallSucker, if I ever have the pleasure of meeting you in person, I'd take great pleasure in breaking your fingers one at a time so that you couldn't type your shit anymore.

You can say a lot of things about me, but I've never, repeat, never attacked another writer's work.

For the record, you piece of swill, I've written more than 2 million words, 2,000,000 words are posted on Literotica.

Your account that my stories are between 900-1,000 is as insane as you are.

Moreover, I'll match any one of my stories and/or poems against one of yours.

Now, if you'd like to discuss this further, hopefully face to face, I'd would love to meet you in person.

You are just a cowardly, miserable old man, a pedophile, probably, who has sex with children because he can't get a woman.

So, let's discuss this like men. Send me an e-mail or a PM, whatever, and I'll make it my personal mission to set your straight about me, you sick piece of shit.

Are you an ALT of soular ? Or worse still are you her husband? You seem to have been reading her mail. There is nothing worse than when a ‘significant other’ arrives on the scene on his/her palomino steed to defend his partner.

Unless of course its [size=+2]Gabby [/size] – there’s an exception to every rule.

Personally, I believe that miss soular is a wonderful person (as long as she’s not one of the kitten sisters) and a brilliant writer. Unlike the pilot and his elitist views I don’t believe the MOST INFLUENTIAL AUTHOR category demands that the winner be a big influence on other authors.

As miss serena surprisingly and correctly pointed out: Really, when it comes down to it, it's up to the voter to interpret what "influential" means to them.

I believe the winner should be decided by our readers – they are the important people here – and not the know it all tit-for-tatters in AHland.

This doesn’t mean that I accept your line “All four nominations in the present contest occurred before soular was even aware of the nomination process”. What a load of crap…In fact I believe she engineered the nominations herself. But this is not meant to cast “aspersions on her character” nor does it question her “integrity” – in fact campaigning to win an ANNUAL LITEROTICA PRIZE is a legitimate and necessary pastime for an author. The three previous winners (both nominated again) were magnificent marketers and campaigners and won in large part because of this.

Elections are to be won and if soular is smart enough to beat some of the canniest people here good for her.

I just wish she hadn’t hired you as her campaign manager…

But lets face it, it's [size=+]Freddie [/size] who deserves it!

You've basically called me a liar, but I'll take the high road here, seeing as how you don't know me, and have no idea whether I'm being honest or not. Believe what you wish, but soular did not learn about these nominations until May ninth. She did not engineer anything, nor did I. I found out about the nominations when she told me.

Alts must be a big thing around here. I'm not one, and I assure you that soular has none.

 

[sharkjcw1]

Yea, everyone has a couple of dozen alts if you beleave the three stoogies.
I been here for a few years as a reader. (my creative writting skils suck).
and this argument has been going on the whole time, every time there is a vote contest and the same group of people are always pushing Alts as why they lose. Maybe they need to look at how they relate to other people for a change.

No freddie I am still not sr71plt's, or txrad's, or boxlicker's, or the kittens,or anyone elses sock puppet as you like to call me. but if that is what flots your boat than keep on talking at least you are then leaving other people alone.

 

[sharkjcw1]

My take as reader on the POV discussion. This is one of the better things that i have seen on any of the threads lately!! Evan as a nonwriter i am learning a lot. THANK YOU for this disscussion, its been great.

 

[michchick98]

Limited omniscient is the preferred POV if you're using omniscient... meaning, you're in one person's head, or at least, one at a time (with clear scene breaks between!)

Believe it or not, I'm reading a Nora Roberts novel right now (an older one) and it's a third person narrative, but the POV switches from person to person every few paragraphs. Ironically, it's not confusing in the least.

 

[sacrificedangel]

Thanks for that Selena_Kitt, I think when I do my re-edits I am going to have to address this. Its not something that has been commented on by readers though, so maybe I can get away with it for here and first edits.

 

[BOSTONFICTIONWRITER]

Duh! ...And then the light bulb illuminated my thoughts, Cocksucker, soxlicker, sorry, child abuser.

You're hurt that no one nominated you for the Most Influential Writer and/or the Most Influential Poet. Of course, that's it, isn't it? It's so obvious. I should have seen that from the start.

Then, to compound matters, they nominated me. Wow, that really must have pissed you off, huh? Further, when you saw how many votes I was getting, you lost what little mind you had.

You stopped molesting little boys to vomit your anger that I was nominated, of all writers, rather than you.

Wow! You have some serious issues, Ballsucker, sorry, Dicklicker.

Hey, buddy, none of this is real. Why do you take this so seriously? Have you no life? Your woman doesn't want to have sex with you anymore because you spend your day and night writing your nasty stories? I betcha she's disgusted by your lewd behavior, huh?

I dare say you have no friends and that the only friends you have are the characters in your stories. Then, when those who read your stories didn't even nominate you and nominated me instead, well, now I understand why you went bonkers and wrote what you did about me and my stories.

You know, cumlicker, there is medication that you can take to make you sleep and to remove the voices from your head that makes you do the foul things that you do.

I'll tell you what, if you apologize to me and everyone who you offended, all those writers who you perceive as not writing as well as you think you do, I'll see what I can do to make people forgive you.

Hey, maybe next year someone will nominate you. I'll tell you what, if you behave and stop molesting children, I'll give you a nomination vote. How's that?

Fucking pedophile.
