Daydreaming

JavaJoe

Helen, one of my favorite stories of yours was in your “fictional” Daydreaming. Actually a lot of my favorites are in there. But one of the ones I re-read regularly and often is the first one. The one about Helen giving lessons to Larry in how to take care of a woman. That remains one of the more erotic stories you have written, in my opinion. Partly because I have always wished I had ever had a friend that taught me like that. Okay, mostly because of that. I also liked some of the bits with Brian, and almost all the bits with the girls.
I just wanted you to know someone read your journal and loved it as much as the ones you put in the Stories section.
😁

I wonder if I could pull some of those into new stories...

JavaJoe

helen let me think for a moment.. umm, yes please. Just using some of the scenarios would be interesting. Like being on the road trip with Lauren (I believe?) and sharing sex over the phone with another couple. That was hot.

I was so excited to read the new Daydreaming entry and excited to read the rest of the Step Something story when you finish it...Also totally agree that it's hard to find well written erotica. Do you have any fav authors/stories on Literotica? Your work was my entry into the genre and it set the bar so crazy high, especially with how you capture the seduction, that it's hard to find many that compare lol. There's one author en_extase (probably long since retired) that comes close with the stories focusing on the mental game of seduction, and sometimes of reluctance which can be super hot when written well

fmerommel For some reason the author's name seems familiar, but when I browsed their stories I saw nothing I recognized. I haven't made a note of any particular writers or stories yet. There have been a couple that seemed interesting, but they all have fallen short of what I'm looking for so far, though overall I think there are stories that are much better than the norm.

Have you had chance to read sequence 4 yet? I think it's likely to be the last one for a while. I'll return to it when I have an idea that I think will work in the series.

fmerommel

I did. Both of these are out of my comfort zone but you made a 3 way and BDSM, which I never really read, very entertaining. I think my favorite section is #3. The sexual tension build up in Party Favors and the seduction in Blossoming are paired together so well.

Hoping you find some new ideas for other shorter stories. Cabin Fever is one of your all time greats that I keep going back to cause it was so damn perfect lol. Maybe there's some story potential with the concepts of quarantine and social distancing?

I've thought about trying to set a story in our quarantine / lockdown era, but I can't see how it would work. At least, inspiration hasn't struck so far. Which really is a shame, since fiction, whether books or online, is a great distraction when you're cut off from the world. I'd like to write more during this time.

fmerommel

Yeah its tricky because there's nothing inherently sexy about social distancing. Except with masks. They force you to look at people's eyes, eyebrows and eyelashes. It's a fine art to be able to flirt successfully with half your face covered lol. Human touch during this era also becomes more precious because government directs us to avoid it. Like I had a friend go on a "socially distanced" date and she was describing how the chemistry was so strong that simple touch became highly erotic. She ended up inviting him home to her bubble haha

helen

fmerommel That's a very interesting hook. I find it annoying that I can't smile thanks to someone anymore. But if you invert it and manage to communicate anyway, I can see that working well. I still don't think that the logistics would allow a very sexy story - although it clearly worked for your friend 😃
