The Official Authors' Hangout Halloween 2022 Contest Support Thread

I was making progress on a creepy EH story finally, but now my brain wants to produce pure crack. I've never posted in Humor...
 
i'm new to the site and didn't know so many people participated in these contests! super neat. i'm right in the middle of another 10k+ word story, but I kinda want to shelf it for now while i work on some hot, hot horror erotica!!!

Welcome aboard! I'm surprised how few people have posted so far, maybe this is too close to the summer contest.

Good luck to you, and it doesn't have to be horror - mine are Halloween because of the jack-o-lanterns, the falling leaves, the kids in costumes, ghost stories by the campfire, powdered donuts and apple cider...

Working hard to finish mine, it was a killer day at work, so hopefully 3-4 more days
 
My reading numbers are down compared to many I publish in fetish. Which is interesting.
But then as there is no sex or even nudity I guess that is understandable!

I see yours in there! (I need to get a move on and read everyone's stories!)
 
I just checked earlier and mine posted while I was away. Yay (And sorry for posting 4 in a row here ....I am trying to catch up!)

You can do multi quotes in one post. Just click on the ones you want to quote and then hit the enter quotes at the bottom of your post. Then you can answer each one under it.

I have done that ... but I am tiiiiirred and am being not too bright at the moment! (If I said it up'ed my post count would you believe me? I just noticed that mine is a lot now. Or at least what I view as a lot.)
 
Finally got my second Halloween entry complete and submitted. I was aiming for 10,000 words and not only did I meet that target, I exceeded my goal - 27,000 words. It just wouldn't let me stop! Oh well, I'll probably attract a few 1 bombs because it's not "Halloweeny" enough or something
 
Now compare the number of years I've been here to the number of months you've been here. ;)

D, those "Halloweenies" get everyone in trouble.
 
I would like to submit a Halloween story with Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley, 18+, but I wonder if HP Saga is allowed, or if it is forbidden.

No, unfortunately that's out of bounds. Any story based on characters that have been portrayed as under 18 elsewhere can't go here.

That would work, as long as the participants are all over 18. Put it in the Celebrities and Fan Fiction category

It would not...I tried to change the Willy Wonka story to having all the participants as over 18...it was rejected. There is a thing about sexualising what can be seen as children in the original.

The rule is-we do not publish stories featuring the following content:
"celebrity or fanfic stories in which the characters are artificially aged - that is, under 18 years old in reality or in the source material, but made to be over 18 for the story"

I suppose that would apply to where in the story you entered, if you suddenly aged everybody up at day 1 yeah, I could see that. I automatically thought it was at the end of the story where they were over 18 because Harry didn't give Ginny a second thought before graduation. If Harry and Ginny came back as instructors that would work. My brain just didn't go to there when he mentioned the "Potterverse"

No, it won't work. Literotica will not let you "age up" fictional characters known in the source material primarily as children. No Harry Potter allowed.
 
Anyone out there feel like offering any constructive thoughts on my Halloween entry? I’d be happy for some feedback.

MILFs vs Zombies….

Maybe I am giving myself too much credit for hitting my mark, but I’m thinking my story is too funny for the tastes of some fetishists…
Hey Casual.

Here is some feedback. Lots of fetishes going on at a frantic pace. I too write with far too many different fetishing going on!
Yes escape rooms are a frenetic activity! Watch out how "quick" your girls get drunk. It seems one glass of wine and shot and they are pissed!

My personal like is to have character build up. Who is who, what are they looking at, what do they look like.

Again my personal taste- if you put a character list up at the front, you are writing a play where you cannot really put character definition into the writing? However if you are going to write 28.4 words you can let your characters develop in words in the plot? Show them off?

I was criticised once for describing what my characters were wearing as if I was writing it out of catalogue? Use words and your protagonists to help you?

"Kaelan was in a cheetah print bikini with a plastic spear prop sitting next to her.

Brandi was wearing a chain-metal bikini made of real metal with a plastic sword next to her.

Minerva had a metallic bikini top, a long, flowing loincloth that covered almost none of her rear end, a leather collar with a metal chain attached to it, and a dark braid to clip into her hair, along with a pair of cheap, felt boots.

Nicci was wearing an extremely tiny, red monokini with a fancy white collar and a gold bat symbol that looked more like an eagle on her crotch. There was a pair of black stiletto boots next to her as well."

You could make some depth to it and the characters?

"Brandi looked in shock across the room and pointed her long black painted index finger nail at Kaelan. She could not help by giggle. As her friend was sitting there in an extremely cheap, tacky, and barely there cheetah print bikini. Whilst holding a plastic spear prop sitting next to her.

"What you giggling at?"

"You?"

"Whatever, just look at yourselves too?" Kaelan raised an inquisitive eyebrow.

Brandi slowly looked down, it dawned on her the reason her bottom lip was shivering. She was sitting there wearing a cold clanking chain-metal bikini with yet another plastic sword in her hand. Her nipples were hard against the metal, rather pleasurably tickling her.

"Oh..."

There was a cough, both girls then looked across at Minerva stifled a chuckle she equally had a metallic bikini top, a short facecloth as loincloth that covered almost none of her rear end. It was all held in place with a leather collar with a metal chain attached to it, and a dark braid to clip into her hair, along with a pair of rather unsexy, and very cheap, felt boots.

I am not trying to harsh, I am trying to help.

Others will have other opinions. It was a frantic story with lots of sex. I am sure peeps will love it.

I humbly surrender to the rules mentioned by Duleigh, Baz and Rustyoznail,
... but I can't help but notice that precisely the Harry Potter saga is about characters growing up and becoming adults and having children (and everyone knows this, because it's even seen in the movies).
In other words: I would understand banning any story that includes Wednesday Addams (never portrayed by actresses older than ten or twelve), but of Harry and Ginny we even know the names of the children, even without considering more recent developments in the saga.
But I understand that the general rules have safeguarded this site from a flood of fanfiction all with the same equal flavor, and I humbly bow out.
