The 5th Annual Literotica Awards Discussion Thread

Thanks!

A BIG Thank you to all the readers who voted for: "Gateway to Pleasure" in the Exhibitionist/Voyeur category when it first came online and now for the votes in the Readers Choice Contest.

It's an honor to be amongst the top 5 in the category and especially with that story since it has 'special sentimental significance' for me. I really do appreciate your support very much.


Just to comment on some of the posts: DallasWV and Jack Mangrove asked about how stores are nominated.

I speak under correction, but I think each month the top scoring story for each category goes forward as Readers Choice Nominees which means that by the end of the year there are 12 stories in each category. The 5 stories which are the highest scoring out of the 12 then go forward as the final nominations and they are then subject to voting in the Readers Choice Contest.

In January there was a call for nominations for the other categories like Most Influential Writer, Sexiest male and female characters etc.

Artisticbiguy, I am absolutely thrilled that you have been nominated in two categories (*wink* and am proud to admit that I had something to do with that myself...) but I think you are way too modest. In my view if there was a category for Best New Writer you'd be there too, and if you feel that Jeffrey was the sexiest then you go ahead and vote for him!

Good luck to all the nominees and thanks to Laurel for the opportunity to submit here.

Wow, thanks Gem.

Well, I decided "screw it, I'll vote for Jeffery" and if they need to edit out my vote I'll understand.

God that category is getting unnerving... we're running so close in it

Congrats to all the category winners!

First, I want to thank all the people who read what I write, and apparently, enjoy it... especially those who have taken the time to send me feedback, even that will-o-the-wisp, Anonymous.

Winning story of the month for December about blew me away; the interracial love category is tough to win anything in... why, with the intrinsic taboo of interracial sex, is beyond me. However, finding out that Ch 2 Of Bigger Bites of Tabooo Apples is in the running for interracial story of the year... This was something far beyond anything I could have imaged when I first started posting here @ Literotica. I started writing erotic fiction on somewhat of a dare, and also to entertain a few friends. To find that others like what I write (at least in the way I present a story, if not the specific content) is indeed humbling.

Even if I don't win, chosen to even be in the race is an honor. I want to thank all of you who already have , or still have time to vote for my story. But my most senceriest thanks goes to my faithful readers. Without our readers, we're all just frustrated hack writers, pounding on the keyboard.

Okay, I've gushed long enough.

Erotic Poetry Category

Wow,,,,i was checking out the new erotic stories and discovered the 2003 awards. Was i ever surprised to have one of my poems nominated for the erotic poem category. What a thrill and an honor. Not quite sure how the nominations work, but was so pleased to see my poem there. What great inspriation!

 

[Master_Vassago]

Honored and proud to have been nominated and won in a section that I entered simply because of the Survivor contest and truly turned out to enjoy writing for. Thanks for all the votes and feedbacks this year. MV

 

[artisticbiguy]

I was shocked at having been nominated and completely amazed to have won in ANY category. To be nominated for three and to win one was beyond anything I'd expected when I started posting to literotica.

Thank you so much to everyone here who has read my work and thought enough of it to vote or contact me about it.

Namaste,

ABG

Thanks

A hardy, deeply felt thank you to all that voted for my stories. I was shocked to get nominated for two categories and even more shocked to have won two categories. The ultimate was to have had my character "Libby" nominated for sexiest female (Ok she only got 6 votes but who's counting LOL and thank you so much for the nod KM, You're the best). Congratulations to all that won and to all that got nominated! Keep up the good work and thanks for your contribution and hours and hours of reading enjoyment.

Wow!!

I've been gone for a long time. This past summer I posted my first story on literotica ... promised to write a sequel .... then was struck with some unknown condition (actually its not unknown, just unheard of to me until it happened) and I dadblame near thought I was going blind. Got all kinda tests run on me and visited all manner of doctors and such, and before my eyesight was completely back to normal I found myself back in school trying not to bump into any walls ...

To make a long story short, first I couldn't see, then I was too busy to write ... and I know I've been getting the occasional feedback, but I never expected to win ANYTHING!!!!

So I'm shocked, and thankful .... and honored.

And as soon as life slows down a bit, I promise to get crackin on that sequel!

Congrats-just sent you a PM about the condition you described-it sounds like what I have-don't know for sure, but hope you continue doing well or as well you can.

A huge thank you to everyone

I can't thank all of you enough for your kind words and supportive feedback comments and emails regarding my story "The Seduction of Louise - Chapters 1 - 15" I was completely humbled and thrilled to see where Chapter 3 had been nominated in the mature category for the month of June. Many thanks to all of you who took the time to vote for my story, you inspire me to work even harder.
