I am currently collaborating with another Literotica author on a story. We've had equal input into the story and it is very much a shared project that we probably could not finished separately. Can we both post and publish this story under our respective names? We would make clear in the preface to the story that we co-wrote the story so folks wouldn't suspect that one of us stole it from the other. Any advice on this?
 
You can post it from one of your accounts with an author's note at the start crediting the other author. Or you can create a joint account for your collaborations. (If you plan to continue to collaborate).
 
I honestly have no idea if both authors would be allowed to publish the same story. I suppose one would have to clear it with Laurel.

@EmilyMiller and I usually just pick one person's profile then make sure to credit the other at the beginning.
 
I am not aware of an instance where two authors both published the same story. Joint accounts or credits are the way to go. You'd also want to put a note in your profile pointing people at the story on the other person's account (or they to yours).
 
So only one account can publish the story unless we create a joint account?
Correct. The site doesn't allow duplicate stories.

Having done collaborations with three different writers, what we did was this:

1. Agree which account will host the whole story.
2. The other writer publishes to their account, a thousand words, say (enough to hook readers into the story), and at the end of the extract, put a link to the whole story.
- the submissions need to go in at the same time, with a Note to Laurel saying what's going on. She can join them together. This approach was Laurel's suggestion.

See this story intro, as an example:

Transgendence

That way, both writers draw readers to the story from their own set of followers.

The downside of a new, joint account, is that it's starting from scratch, and has to build its own presence.
