Summer Lovin Contest Ideas

bumpity bump bump...

... summer is a good time for an outdoor birthday party. After the kids pass out as the sugar rush fades, grownups play in the bouncy castle.
 
Speaking of tentacle monsters, do any spend their summers hanging around the RV pump out station?

Finally! For years I've been bothered by a line I read in a Lit story many years ago...

"...she had really big boobs and a little waste."​

That presented a disturbing image to me and I never read the rest of that story. Maybe I should have stuck with it to see if she owned an RV? :confused:

:D

Omit the kids. Adult birthday party, attendees in their birthday suits, of course. No tentacles allowed. Well, maybe a few...
 
Two co-workers at a nursery in the middle of summer get accidently locked in a greenhouse for the night. They don't want to break the glass because they fear the cooler night air might damage some rare plants, so they decide to tough it out until morning when the nursery re-opens. They have water so they can stay hydrated. As time progresses, one or both begin to disrobe to stay cool as it's a warm and humid night, and the loss of clothing leads to loss of their inhibitions. Then sex ensues, as opposed to hilarity.

Do their genders matter? Have they cannabis or alcohol available, and maybe snacks, like candy bars in their pockets? Has the greenhouse a comfortable space for sex or must they rough it? Was their confinement truly accidental?

Genders don't matter, that's why I didn't mention man and woman, so it could be two men or two women. And there could be food in the greenhouse: tomatoes, cucumbers (food or "other" uses), carrots, so they won't starve.

For comfort, they find squares of sod grass they can lay out as a makeshift bed. Now whether the confinement was accidental is left up to the writer. Did one of the individuals have a crush on the other, but couldn't confess it to the other? So they devised a scheme to get the other isolated to tell them their feelings. This can beg another question: did they realize when they locked the both of them in that they would be confined for the night? Or was the original plan have an assumption someone would check the greenhouse before closing up for the night?
 
Fishing for mermaids: I’ve put up a similar idea in the past but this one, despite the title is actually a grounded one.

Swinger party that happens out at a pool, lake, or slow moving river.

Guys strip down and go out into the water. Then some swimmers go out and are allowed to freely play with their tackle. The swimmers take turns so you wind up getting pleasured by a number of people. Whoever makes you shoot your load first is your first partner of the night.

Then it’s the ladies turn.

Of course just cause it’s one gender trying to “catch mermaids” doesn’t mean the swimmers only have to be one gender. Guy shoots his load into his best friend who has a crush but only intended it to be a joke and finds guy doesn’t care, it was so hot he’s gonna fuck him right on the beach.

sex and hilarity are not mutually opposed. The premise behind "and then hilarity ensues" is that the best sex ought to be the most fun.

Very good point. That'll teach me to try being a smart ass :D

This is one of the truest statements I have ever read on this or any other message board. Bravo!
 
I like this idea a lot, though I'm not sure I could write about a relationship between two women convincingly enough, mermaid or not. If I were to do it, I'd probably flip the sex of one of the characters, and possibly making one a mermaid (or merman). I have to give it more thought but this idea really appeals to me.

Our protagonist is a woman in her late 20s-mid-30s. She lives in an apartment which overlooks the pool. Every day she looks out over it, watches the people from her building go for swims, couples make out, etc. part of her is desperate to join in…but she has agoraphobia. The thought of being around so many people out in the open terrifies her.

Then one night during a bout of insomnia, she looks out and sees a naked woman sprawled out at the edge of the pool, not moving. Despite her fears, she rushes down and retrieves the woman, who turns out is actually okay, just a bit drunk. Our lead takes her to her apartment, where the woman collapses on her bed and falls asleep.

The next morning, the woman is gone but left a note: she wants to take her out to thank her. This begins a relationship over the summer with both of them trying to push each other in different ways. With a possible climax (pun intended)being the more outgoing woman getting her to have sex in the pool at night.

Alternatively, the woman was a mermaid.

"I like this idea, but would write it totally differently."

Not that there is anything wrong with that. shows how each idea can support many variations. Look how much success CSI and Law & Order had with that.

You're exactly right. Though I'm not a personal fan of any of the CSI and L&O derivatives.

I was trying to work this idea out in my head last night. I am tempted to try the idea as originally proposed with two female protagonists (one being a mermaid still an option) mainly as an experiment to write something outside of my comfort zone. And I may get excoriated by readers over it, especially if the character actions come across as unauthentic. But I think I'd rather try something different and fail as opposed to playing it safe and going with something predicable. That's the way I'm leaning at least.

usually a great policy. Not sure if that's best for contests. I suspect you will either win a prize, or flop with the niche readers.

go for it.
 
So I want to shake the rust off and actually submit a story for the contest so I’m thinking of some short (700 word) ideas.

1. “We never go swimming” wife or girlfriend laments that she and her partner never wind up using the pool at her apartment complex since the moment they see her in a bathing suit, they get too aroused to make it to the pool.

2. “Felt up at the theme park” the lines in summer are long and partner gets bored waiting. How far can they get before they get caught?.

3. “Roadside ASSistance” without cellphone signal it seems like family is stranded on their road trip when they get a flat. Fortunately a tow truck comes past and stops for them. The driver is a butch woman who can easily fix it…for a quick roll with mom and dad. Kids are fortunately asleep but they don’t know for how long so this it’s gonna be hard and fast.

4. “Beating it to the heat”. Bit of a topical one but set in the NW or Canada, a heat dome forms in a normally cool town and the only home on the block with good A/C is the town weirdo. He/she is willing to let people in…but they gotta pay the admission fee.

I'm not worried about winning a prize, because I'm just not that good of a writer yet. I have a lot to learn, so the latter result may be what is in store for me. But I can live with that. Plus I really use the contests as a motivator to write. It makes it fun, and that's why I'm enjoying it so much.

go for it.

I think I will :)

I like this idea a lot. But I'd leave the kids at home. I picture the trucker looking like Gina Gershon from "Bound."
 
Cheerleader practice in the park:

~ dirty old man voyeurism
~balanced by the cheerbabe exhibitionism, as they compete to see who can create the most woodies
~ the mature version, where the babes compete to see who can give a woodie to the oldtimer dozing on the bench
~ or, the young men who toss their football or Frisbee into the practice
~ or the lesbian cheerbabe jealous about the attention the onlookers give her gf...
