ASSD "Orgies"

The authors on alt.sex.stories.* occasionally join in virtual parties or "orgies." Here they write stories about interactions among themselves, other authors, and well-known characters from their stories. I participated in two of these.

"Castle Nursery" (MF oral pett bd) {2,547} : First posted December 1997

"Spring Equinox" (MF MFF exhib voy) {8,842} : First posted May 1999

Contests

"Susan" (MF cons) {3,284} : First posted January 1997
This was her "Third Annual Contest," although she used the word "annual" very loosely. The challenge was to use 20 vocabulary words in the story. I used all of them and most of them several times. This story won the contest.

Several months later, she again sponsored a "Third Annual Contest." This one required a story of fewer than 500 words with a twist at the end. I didn't enter; but my characters, Bob and Jeanette Brennan entered one story apiece. These are the stories, Bob first:
"Windmill Saga" (MF wl cons) {622} : First posted June 1997
I rewrote this for another contest, see below. That is why it is now longer than 500 words.
"Dune What Comes Naturally" (MF cons cheat mf pett voy) {455} : First posted June 1997

At least one of the Brennan Christmas stories was entered in a contest as well, but that contest was only to write a Christmas story.

Other established posters on alt.sex.stories.d sponsored contests or celebrations. I entered five of them.

"Outage" (MF nc reluc) {1,862} : First posted May 1999
Warning, see code "reluc." FAQ: Story codes for readers
The contest was to involve mud wrestling.

"Moving Experience" (MF toys) {3,515} : First posted July 1999
The challenge was to write a sexy story about a necktie.

"Fish Tank" (MF wl preg 1st) {4,554} : First posted August 2002
A regular on ASSD, Desdmona (sic) runs a writing workshop called "The Fish Tank." To celebrate the anniversary, Ray suggested that we each submit a story to the fish tank involving a fish tank, an anniversary, and a character named Desdmona. I cheated on the last.

Then there was a contest to write a story in the "typical" style of Dulcinea, a great writer on alt.sex.stories who had died a few years before. I revised "Windmill Saga," mentioned above, which was already a Dulcinea parody. I also entered three new pieces:
"Cooling Off" (MF wl rom cons) {1,226} : First posted June 2001
"G is for Gazebo" (MF wl rom cons) {852} : First posted June 2001
"His Favorite Day" (MF wl rom cons) {1,008} : First posted June 2001

Souvie, an author on alt.sex.stories.moderated, and a regular in the discussion group, met a fan (online, and then in person). When they got married, several of us wrote wedding stories to celebrate. One of mine was:
"Marriage of State" (Mf wl 1st) {774} : First posted September 2003

For an anniversary of the present organization which moderates ASSM, alt.sex.stories.moderated, there was a "Romance Fest." The task was to write a romance through the eyes of someone particular. Others took that as an imitation of the style of some particular writer; I took it as seeing the same occasion through the eyes of two different persons. So my stories came in pairs:

"Picnic 01" (MF wl cons) {1,679} : First posted June 2002
"Picnic 02" (MF wl cons preg) {1.897} : First posted June 2002

"The Longest Light" (Mf rom pett) {5,870} : First posted June 2002
"The Shortest Night" (Mf rom 1st) {3,952} : First posted June 2002

For the next anniversary, the story should center around a song. One possibility was to write a song, so I did. "Pink Molten Valley" is a variation on "Red River Valley," a song that most Yanks learn in grade school.
"Pink Molten Valley" (MF cons) {127} : First posted November 2002

To celebrate the birthday (52) of Gary Jordan, an author and ASSD regular, we were asked to write a story involving chocolate.
"Chocolate Fudge Sunday" (MF oral wl) {4,377} : First posted February 2003
Mary and Jer are dedicated parents, but they need to deal with other aspects of being married.

Denny Wheeler is not only a highly respected regular in ASSD, he is one of my editors. He signs himself, "cumudgeonly editor." To honor him, we had a festival on national curmudgeon day, October 26, 2004. My contribution was:
"The Viscount Visits" (Mf hist 1st) {3,710}

Flashes

Flashes are very short stories. The limit depends on the particular challenge. I've heard of the limit being set as high as 1,000 words. All these I've listed here used 600 words or fewer.
"Flash Flood" (MF Mf mf voy nc Fsolo preg) {2,420} : First posted May 2003
Ten brief stories written when a poster on Literotica.com asked for stories of fewer than 600 words. Most of these have considerably fewer. The codes listed apply to at least one of the stories.

The next three were in response to a contest which Desdmona sponsored for "postcard fiction," which was defined as stories of 300 words or fewer.

"Final Exam" (MF flash) {296} : First posted November 2003
He'd learned enough. She'd experienced too much.

"Preparation" (MF 1st) {295} : First posted October 2003
Anne didn't understand the language of her captors, but the other women showed her what to do.

"Issue You One" (MF flash wl?) {293} : First posted December 2003

Mat Twassel decided on a Bradley Stoke Flash Stroke Festival, partly to honor Bradley Stoke -- another author, and partly as a challenge to write a stroke story at 18 lines of fewer. My contributions were:
"Rhythm" (mf pett nosex) {133) : First posted November 2003
"Convenient Triad" (MF mf wl preg) {360} : First posted November 2003
The latter contains three stories: "Convenience," "Convenient," and "Conveniently."

Twassel then posted an outline, and challenged us to write a story according to that outline and following the same size rules.

"A View of the Future" (mF voy) {165} : First posted December 2003

Pendragon's Challenges, PC

I sponsored my own "contests," or challenges.

"Pendragon's First Challenge"
The first challenge was to tell a story involving a sexy description of one person's placing a condom on another. Multiple entries being encouraged, I entered three times.

My stories were:
"Turnabout" (MF wl cons safe) {2,178} : First posted April 2000
"Dulce et Decorum" (MF wl cons safe) {733} : First posted April 2000
"Clean Sweep" (mf fsolo pett safe) {6,284} : First posted April 2000
I still have one other story half-written for that challenge.

"Pendragon's Second Challenge, P2C"
This time I didn't bother with judging at all. The challenge was to imagine a committed couple (not necessarily married) who jointly decide to have a baby. Then write the story of the first intercourse with that intention.

My contributions were:
"Another" (MF wl rom) {1,227} : First posted June 2001
"Beautiful Everywhere" (MF wl cons stroke) {1,047} : First posted June 2001
"Little Swimmers" (MF wl rom oral) {2,282} :
"Inaugural Ball" (MF wl rom) {2,313} : First posted July 2001

Unintended Challenges

Sometimes, instead of someone posting: "Let's all write a story about mud-wrestling," the challenge exists only in my own head.

In 1998, a young lady who was then simultaneously
(a) an author of some fine stories on alt.sex.stories,
(b) active in the discussions on alt.sex.stories.d, and
(c) an undergraduate,
posted about a fan letter she had received. The fan commented on the lack of mention of birth control in her story. The author said "I can't start a story with 'I'm five foot four and on the pill.'" She also ended on a note asking (humorously) if any of us had insight for a paper she had to write on "The problems of Utilitarianism."

I wrote a story involving 20th century versions of the three leading Utilitarians, Jeremy Bentham, James Mill, and John Stuart Mill (transformed into a girl, Johanna). The story began "Johanna Mill was five foot four and on the pill."
Usually a critic of the slightest bit of plagiarism, I'm rather proud of pulling large sections of John Stuart Mill's words into the story (Although attributed to Bentham).
"Problems of Utilitarianism" (MF 1st pett oral) {11,519} : First posted November 1998

In late 1999, a poster in alt.sex.stories.d confused tense (present) with POV (first person). I responded with a story which included 8 substories in a frame. For each POV (first person, second person, third person limited, third person omniscient) there were two substories, each in a different tense.
"Flights of Fancy" (Mf voy pett 1st) {9,727} : First posted February 2000

Ever since then, I've toyed with the idea of writing a story containing sex scenes told in more tenses. When I decided that my January, 2010, stories would be titled "Rite," "Write," "Right," and "Wright," I wrote one that included all 15 combinations of mood and tense that one English book listed.
(MF wl> [4,750] : First posted January 2010

"Ol Joe," a long-term regular on alt.sex.stories.d, posted an off-topic story of a friend who played mind games. This led to the story:
"Friday" (MF best preg humor) {801} : First posted January 1998
Warning, see code "best." FAQ: Story codes for readers

Feghoots

Grendel Briarton, an author of science fiction, created a series of short-shorts "Through Time and Space with Ferdinand Feghoot." Each story ended in a pun or spoonerism. This led to stories of that sort being called "feghoots." I plead guilty to two:
"History Class" (MF exhib oral humor) {356} : First posted November 1999
"PRONE IS NOT SYNONYMOUS WITH SUPINE or LET ME PUT THAT TO YOU ANOTHER WAY" (MF wl anal no-sex humor) {303} : First posted February 2000
Warning, see code "anal." FAQ: Story codes for readers
The body of the story contains just under 22 times as many words as the title.

Etcetera

These don't really fit into any category, except that they all are short.

"Conjugation" (MF safe) {194} : First posted October 1997
"Introit" (MF) {162} : First posted July 1998
"Life Sentence" (mf MF) {389} : First posted 1996
"Pharmacy" (mF no-sex humor) {69} : First posted July 1996
