Categories
Adult
A story in which all significant characters, and in particular all spankers and spankees, are adults.
Child
A story in which at least one key character, usually a spankee or a spanker, is a minor.
Ageplay
A story in which at least one key character, usually a spankee or a spanker, is an adult role-playing as a minor.
Setting
A story in which the setting in time and/or place is other than here & now, and in which that setting is significant to the story. This includes historical fiction, fantasy, and science fiction. It also includes stories set in the current time but outside the "western" world, in a cultural setting likely to be less familiar to most readers of SSS. A brief note explaining the setting (particularly for SF or fantasy stories, including Rejuve stories) will not be counted in the word limit.
Humor
A story in which the main thrust or emphasis is its humor.
Fanfiction
A story using the characters and/or setting of existing published works. This would include 'missing-scene' works based on movies, TV shows, or books, or alternate versions such as Handprince's "If Tom Hadn't been so Noble". It also includes sequels, or works just set in an existing fictional context, such as Star-trek or Little-house spanking stories.
Please indicate the fictional work or group of works your entry is based on, in a note before or after your work. Such notes will not be counted against the 500 word limit.
Parody
This category is mostly intended for song parodies, but also for parodies of prose works which don't fit the fan-fiction category. For example: spanking versions of TV commercials would fit here. Please indicate what you are parodying in a note before or after your work. Such notes will not be counted against the 500 word limit.
Verse
This category is for poems and verse which are not parodies.
Long
Each author may enter at most one work in this category, which allows for works between 500 and 1000 words long.
Mini-epic
This category is for works exactly 50 words long. Emphasis is on being able to tell a clear and complete story in this very short word limit.
Festival
These works will be archived, and possibly reviewed, but not ranked and not considered for "winning".
First/last lines
This category is for works using one of a specified list of phrases or sentences as the first or last line of the work. Coming Soon
