The 12th Annual Literotica Award Nominations: Most Influential Writer

[SuperHeroRalph]

I nominate SamuelX for the most influential writer in not only 2010 but also as a lifetime achievement award.

This one man from Boston, who I call friend, my home town, has written more stories than any other writer on the site period.

I love you Sam!

 

[SuperHeroRalph]

Okay, I saved the best nomination for last.

I nominate my friend, my buddy, my pal, my idol, SCOURIES, for the most influential writer in 2010.

No one, no one, no one works as hard at his craft as he does. Not only does he write top rated stories, stories that have topped the charts for years but also he entertains everyone with his forum posts and graphics.

I truly believe that he has delivered more readers to this site than any other writer here. Readers love to hate him. Readers love his stories.

[sr71plt]

I have several nominations that I'd like to make.

First, I nominate Sr71plt. Not only is he a talented writer but also he freely spends his time helping other writers to be better writers.

If there is an unsung hero on Literotica, it is him or is that he?

Anyway, Sr71plt is my nomiation for the most influential writer for 2010.

As Ralph/Freddie first nominated himself (andtheend) and the rules clearly state that only the first nomination is accepted from an individual poster (although, with Freddie, it's a little difficult to be talking about a single poster), all these other nominations from him are moot.

Regardless, his nomination of me is, of course, just another one of Freddie's petulant, disruptive inanities and I have no interest in this contest. So, of course, I decline the nomination.

SamuelX is from Ottawa, Canada. Same place as I live. Does that mean I'm Samuelx as well?

Actually, I withdrew my nomination. My nomination of you, as well as my words were sincere.

That's okay. I apologize for nominating and complimenting you. I won't bother you again and I hope you will pay me the same courtesy.

I'm not interested in your silly games, Freddie. You are an embarrassment to this Web site.

 

[Many Feathers]

Once again...

I love all the "virgins" that show up to nominate. Once again...like I said before...

 

[lovecraft68]

I nominate Many Feather's. I have never seen another author who can wrote so well in so many genre's. Not only that but for as long as he has been writing he continues to come up with new challenges for himself see "Tinklebell" for example.

By far the biggest influence I've had in my time here.

Many_Feathers

I am new to reading his stories but they are wonderfully written and as the poster above me said He has great stories in so many categories. Thanks, Rick!

 

[ebkillert65]

I'm going with Many_Feathers...his stories are always well written and incredibly sexy.

 

[inthegutter]

I'm casting my vote for Many_Feathers. Excellent work and very well written!

 

[CornishWillo]

I too would like to cast my lot for Many Feathers, I've read a couple of his stories and what can I say that nobody else has yet?

Most Influental

Many Feathers
Great writer & great stories in all categories!

 

[Jedi_Khan]

I vote for bashfullyshameless, for his Angels, Demons, and Alex series. His stories have captured the hearts and minds of readers and have kept them coming back day after day, hour after hour, looking for a new chapter to be posted. His stories have proven so good that people have lost sleep to stay up and read each chapter as it comes out, myself included.

The skill bashfullyshameless has demonstrated in crafting the Angels, Demons, and Alex series has been nothing less than masterful, creating characters that readers love and love to hate. Each scene has been delivered with heartwarming, and at times heart-breaking, emotion, creating a connection between the reader and the characters. Readers have wept at the torment and loneliness of Alex, were awestruck at the redemption of Lorelei, cheered and laughed as Rachel laid down the law, and overall rejoiced as Alex and company persevered and conquered in the face of perils that would snap the hardiest of men. Oh, and readers also got off on the sex scenes too.

The masterpiece that is Angels, Demons, and Alex has been praised and cursed by readers, all for being a brillant and addicting story. Ultimately, all that praise goes to one person: bashfullyshameless.

And if this testimony is not sufficent enough, I present the All Time Top List for Reader Voting on individual stories regardless of genre, where stories by bashfullyshameless hold six - six - spots in the top ten (although admittedly, the number one position is held by a 2011 calendar year submission).

So once again, I hereby nominate bashfullyshameless for the 2010 Most Influential Writer Award.

Mentalcase, for his 'Just the Six of Us' series, and
FistofFury for the 'A Backrub for Julia" series

You know I'm probably going to regret doing this because I swore when I joined the site it was to write and not get into drama.

Earlier I made my nomination od Many Feathers and it was a bit of a struggle because always wanted to is also very good.
But the post I'm quoting drives me nuts this is for most influential writer. some one who inspired you to do more than jerk off. Both Many Feathers and always. will correspond with you and give you help if they can and if your willing.
This is not which story do you like best. Back rub for Julia is good its on my favs page but only 2 chapters were released all last year. Mental case has a great series going but he is wrapped up in himself and posts daily self deprecating remarks about his own work he is about him and well most of us are. This contest is for writers that will either help us others to be better directly or just by being so good we want to write better! This contest should only be voted on by other authors. Hell I started in May of this year and came out with 35 stories including 24 from the same series with a spin off am I inspiring? even in my own mind nope. People like my stuff but I'm not getting anyone all pumped and jacked. I just hope the right type of person wins here be it Many or Always or even Jaz who writes in a category I dislike but I have read a couple of their things because they were recommended and their written so well Jaz made me like them. That's what this is about.

Said it way better than I can. bashfullyshameless's Angels, Demons and Alex is one of only two stories that i can remember that made me check back on the website every single day for an update.

I hope more of his readers comes here and vote for him.

My vote goes to bashfullyshameless.

 

[Nirana]

Alwayswantedto - the best author on this site!

 

[Dez45]

Voting for bashfullyshameless

As others have very eloquently explained. I agree, to the point that I registered as a member solely to be able to add my acclaim to theirs. I have completely been enraptured by bashfullyshameless's stories this year, and checked back as often as I could for the next remarkable posting.

 

[Many Feathers]

Have to agree with a lot of what you say here. Always wanted to, is also a very talented writer and I enjoy reading his work, as well as yours. This has been an interesting year for me, I've posted well over fifty new stories, most of which have done (and are doing) really well. Though I am most pleased with "Tinkle Bell" and how well that series was received. So far, it's been my highest rated average story I've ever posted, and there are twenty one total chapters on this one. So again..."Many Thanks" for all of you who commented, voted and posted on this particular series of mine.

Good luck to all the authors who are nominated in this category.

I would like to nominate my dear Esperanza_Hidalgo; in her work I discovered how truly erotic erotica could be, by working with her as an editor I was moved by how she worked with me and how she formed stories that were so much more than the subpar strokefics that so litter Literotica. She introduced me to a form of erotica I could love... one with storytelling and character development amidst all of the passion. She may not be the most influencial writer on the site, but she influenced me most... more than anyone... to give writing porn a go, because I found out through her that even I could enjoy a good smutty story!

 

[hawkeye7513]

Another for BashfullyShameless

I'm voting for bashfulyshameless for reasons eloquently stated somewhere above.

 

[sweetjaniel]

Wheels of Steel!!!

I would like to nominate Pepperpace for her Wheels of Steel series. One of the best stories I have read ever...and it was so completely out of the box that no other story can touch it. Absolutely beautiful....and the best thing about this author....it wasn't the only story written that was wonderful. Truly a gifted author.

And the nominations are.......

Most Influential Writer - Bashfullyshameless - A different approach to some authors in that there is as much effort if not more in creating a great narrative as there is in creating great sex in the Angels Demons and Alex series and he kept a wide range of characters interesting.

Most Influential Poet - sorry no nomination -(I'm not too hot on poetry. )

Sexiest Female Character In A Story - Tania Mosswell (Neighbourly Relations -2010 chapters - by R_D_Eddy) and also Rachel from Angels, Demons & Alex - Bashfully Shameless)

Sexiest Male Character In A Story - Jack Morgan (CvsN chapters 15-26 Tx Tall Tales)

Most Literary--Genre Transcending - Angels, Demons & Alex (the series)

There have been a lot of great works this year, and I hope that whatever competetive urges drive the trolling and abuse that people take a moment to pause and reflect on how the goodwill of others keeps this site interesting.

As with most things in life, to me it's not the quantity, its the quality that keeps me comming back to this site. Yes, I know I don't write, but I've been around here for a long time and the abuse that I see on these boards is the main reasons I lurk in the shadows.

Good luck to all nominees (whomever may have nominated you )
