Author Lovecraft68

Hi I have been reading on this site for 3 years and have never gotten an ID. In the past I have not voted in these contests because supposedly it looks bad for an author if a lot of "virgins" post. However higher up on this page a virgin posts that they got their ID because they were so inspired by a series that they just had to vote. I think thats what this influential author contest is all about so i took the ten minutes to set up an id.

On that note I would like to nominate Lovecraft68 for his Siblings with Benefits series. in three years of reading I have never come across a series like it. The character developement is incredible as are the details throughout. I have never been so absorbed by two characters like I have Mark and Megan. Also I have e-mailed Lovecraft68 several times. He always responds and is incredibly passionate about his writing something many authors on here don't seem to be anymore.

The series is about as the title states a brother and sister who have had a sexual relationship for close to 20 years and have both been through hell and back. they were seperated as young children and put in seperate himes where they were both abused. Her sexually. Megan gets taken into a good home and adopted years later she finds her brother in a group home and he comes to live with her and her adopted parents. She seduces him a year later. the two almost became a couple but Megan falls into severe drug addiction. In the current day she is sober and Mark has just professed his love for her. the series then becomes flashbacks of their younger years and the trials and tribulations they have sufferd through. There have been times I have been in tears.
Granted the series isn't for everyone as it is gloomy and Mark/Megan are into hardcore S&M sex. The characters are at the same time both hateable and loveable which is where the authors talent really comes in and to understand that one really has to read it which I urge you to do so. Sorry this is going on a bit but first post and just want to share this series with others.
Once again Lovecraft68 Siblings with Benefits.

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.


(edit for space)

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 :D)


Apologies for nominating in the wrong threads - this has now been corrected and the nominations made in the appropriate thread.
 
I'd like to nominate Harding for "A Week in Miami"...his character Nikki came alive on the page. Now back to the gratuitous sniping...

I have read many stories on this site and I do not believe there is one that can rival the literary expertise as the "Angels, Demons and Alex" saga written by bashfullyshameless. His skill at portraying events and actions in such vivid detail is the mark of a true author, rather than just a writer of short stories or smut.

It is my deep belief that a story, regardless of its topic, genre or content must a good story. The art of story telling has been a part of our society since the beginning of man. It has been used to document our history and lineage, depict major events in our lives, define our culture and society, advance as a race, take philosophical ideas and turn them into marvelous technologies and entertain and enthrall us for many a millennia.

The best part about this story is that it is basic in nature but complex in its application. Bashfullyshameless uses the simple formula of introduction, plot, climax & resolution and applies it over and over again to each part of the story. what makes it complex is the various groups that are in the story and how well he is able to blend all of them together; kind of like how a maestro takes several types of instruments to form his symphony.

Similar authors that I have read (published authors) have done exactly what bashfully shameless has done and created works that have won the #1 New York Best Seller award, as well as many other achievements. I am sure he would be of the same caliber, should he ever decide to publish any works.

Bravo sir!

This is a tough decision because I have two I'd like to nominate but only one counts. So with apologies to one, I'll toss my nomination out for the other. (Eeny Meeny Miney Moe....)

I nominate MugsyB for all her "Ice" stories. I'm a huge hockey fan and her "Ice" stories make some of my favorite NHL players seem a bit more human. It also helps when I miss watching games on TV, I can still get my hockey fix. :) She combines hockey and romance and does an outstanding job. The stories stay with me long after I've read them and I've even read a few of them more than once.
 
crazed jaymal fan

I nominate Jaymal for all the amazing work he did in 2010 - winning Literotica contests plus getting honorable mentions. He created an amazing body of work last year!

:heart:Mia:heart:
 
I nominate JackKing.

His return in 2010 deserves this embrace. He inspires me with how he stretches his story longer than War and Peace, but maintains sexual tension in every paragraph.
 
My Vote Goes to LynnGKS

LynnGKS

She is a terrific writer, she has a great imagination and a quick wit. Her style is interesting, insightful, and she is intelligent yet funny. I enjoy her stories and she inspired me to submit my first story.
 
My nomination is....

Bashfullyshameless, this writer just does an amazing all around job.
 
Lovecraft68

Lovecraft68's Siblings with Benefits series has influenced profoundly, to my very core.

For that, I hate him.
 
Bashfullyshameless

I made an account just to nominate my favorite author. That's how influential he is to me. His work Angels, Demons and Alex easily beats the best sellers of the published books. It's better than all the Harry Potter books combined. It takes you to a journey of a lifetime. His created world is so real that I can almost touch Rachel (I like naughty angels). And you just can feel for Alex - his demise in his past, the rewards of his present, and the future of his relationships - all of it is in a perfect story you never want to end.

I wish he make more. Make a trilogy out of Alex's story. Or better yet, make 7 books out of it.:D
 
Influential Writer

I too am one of the virgins on the site. I am more a reader than a post-er. I do tend to comment on favorite stories. My fave author this past year has been MugsyB. Mugsy knows how to combine sports and sex in a way that is terribly hard to resist! Keep up the good work, Mugsy!:D
