Pink Orchid 2026: Story Event for Women-Centric Erotica - Official Support Thread

I think I'm going to delete my story and resubmit it in N&N, changing only the author's note. I apparently made a major mistake in trying to put this in LS, even though 90% of the sex is lesbian. There is no lesbian content until late in chapter three, when two blow jobs have already been mentioned (both happen off camera). If people would read it all the way through, I think they would accept it as LS, but they're bailing on it first right now.

So in some sense, my repeated 1's and 2's are not trolls, just people not reading far enough into it to accept that it wasn't mis-categorized.

I'll let this sit with me until this afternoon, but I think that's the right thing to do with this story. It deserves a better treatment than it is getting.

I'm sorry you're having a bad reception! I did warn you about rabid lesbians, though. They look cuddly from distance but some of them are out for blood.

My story will come out tomorrow! I promise to read y'all's while I refresh mine ceaselessly.

I should have listened!

Awwww. Really? I feel bad as 1) I suggested it would be okay in Lesbian based on my experience publishing one with lots of hetero sex in it first and 2) because I haven't read it yet. (I was going to wait for next weekend, as it's quite long, but I prefer to read in one sitting.)

I just think there's a lot of trolling going on right now.

Hugs.

Certainly I don't blame you. I think the particulars of the story make it particularly bad for this. The story in its entirety I still thinks belongs in LS, but the early parts have no sense of it at all. And it's long enough that it takes a determined reader to get far enough (4 or 5 lit pages?) to start seeing it as an LS appropriate story.

It's going to hopefully go right back up in a new category. I sent Laurel a note to see if she has a preference for how I do this that will make less work for her and have it happen seamlessly.

Late to the party. I read the first four pages of your story. As a lesbian, I felt it was too heavy on the heterosexuality in a space designated for lesbian (women centric) fiction.

Your story is definitely well written, but for me a turn off. I did not finish it, but I can honestly say I would not give your story five stars as Lesbian fiction. Probably four and that's based on the quality of your writing, not on the subject matter (of the first four pages). I did not rate your story.

After the first four or five pages, there is minimal hetero, so I convinced myself to put it in LS. But taking a step back, I understand that now.

EDIT: And thank you for the feedback. I meant to say this before hitting post.

Oh, for fun. Nothing like letting your cursor hover over the Submit button at 3:20 AM in Oslo. One more read through? No chance! A Letter to Máire Dunne is in. Now to run the AI gauntlet and hope it gets approved. A dual entry into Valentines Day and Pink Orchid, it is a M/F romance rather than a lesbian story like I submitted here in prior years.

A follow-up to my Winter Holiday 2025 story, where two letters were written, one in 1852 and the other contemporary, a stranger from Boston shows up at Wynter's Pub, claiming to be an ancestor of Máire Dunne. For Pink Orchid, we get the heroic tale of Máire as she endured the Great Famine before emigrating to the city of Boston, where immigrants were not always welcome. And we meet a feisty Irish lass, who shows the stranger more than just the Irish countryside. Toss in a sexy redheaded ginger who started her own modern matchmaking business. Full of witty banter, Irish history and folklore, Boston slang, and some of my longest sex scenes, I hope everyone will enjoy!
