 Nialos Leaning Presents Story Submission Guidelines (revised December 5,
2010)
   Copyright 2001=2010 by Nialos Leaning, all rights reserved
   At its sole discretion, Nialos Leaning Presents may for any reason, or
for no reason, decline to post submitted stories.  Only stories submitted
by the original author or with the verifiable permission of the original
author will be considered for posting.  Authors must be 18 years of age or
older; this site does not accept submissions from minors.  All submitted
stories must adhere to the following content guidelines and restrictions
unless at its discretion Nialos Leaning Presents makes an exception as
noted below.
   For story purposes, the following definitions apply.  Exposed means
non-consensual nudity for any reason, such as for punishment, as a means of
establishing and reinforcing adult control, to lessen harmful excessive
modesty, for promoting healthy body image and sexuality, sexual education,
to build toughness, or any other reason the author prefers.  Public means
anyplace where individuals not in the exposed person's family can view that
person; for example, at school, at the mall, or even the exposed person's
home if non-family members are present.  Nudity means that at least the
genitals, buttocks, and for girls developed enough to have them, breasts
are exposed.
   Stories must depict in the presence of others the forced non-consensual
public nudity of preteen and young teen children, ages 8 to 14.  Exposed
children under age 8,  exposed teens ages 15 to 17 and the occasional
exposed adult are also acceptable provided that the number of exposed
children within the 8 to 14 age range is greater in number than those
exposed persons outside of the age range.  Exposed victims under 5 cannot
be subjected to more than simply nudity; they cannot be physically punished
nor can they be subjected to sexual activity whether consensual or
non-consensual.  As is likely in real life, exposed children must find
their nudity to be embarrassing and humiliating.
   Site preference is for exposed boys to be the primary focus; however, at
its discretion the site will also accept stories featuring exposed girls as
the primary focus.  When girls are the prime focus, it's preferable, but
not required, that at least one exposed boy be included as either an
additional primary or as a secondary character.
   Subject to the restrictions in these guidelines, stories can be as
extreme or mild as the author wishes.  Spankings and forced sexual activity
for characters ages 6 and older, especially when these are non-consensual,
are always acceptable and preferable, but are not absolutely necessary. 
Anything not specifically prohibited by these guidelines is permissible,
including non-consensual intercourse and the infliction of pain ranging
from mild to very severe anywhere on the body other than the head.
   When performed either as a punishment or for the pleasure of either the
tormenter or others, stories may not depict intentional or unintentional
death, lost of body parts, more than minor permanent body damage, permanent
lost of functionality, broken bones or any injury or illness requiring
medical necessity treatment beyond basic first aid and home style pain
relief remedies.  For story content purposes, "medical necessity" is any
treatment that in real life would be required to actually save life or
limb, to restore long term functionality, or is essential for healing or
recovery to occur.  Circumcision is an absolute exception to the "loss of
body parts" restriction.
   If life, limb, and long term functionality aren't jeopardized and
external appearance not significantly adversely affected, any medical or
dental procedure performed with the deliberate intent of causing pain and
suffering is specifically permitted.  This would include, but is not
limited to, things such as without benefit of anesthesia suturing
(stitching) wounds, making incisions, drilling teeth, or doing body cavity
work.  Such procedures should, however, be performed by characters trained
and skilled in their use.
   Deliberate intentional disfigurement is prohibited.  Since each person's
body, and areas of their body, differ in susceptibility to scarring,
inadvertent unintentional scarring is permissible, if limited in scope and
not extensive.  At its discretion, Nialos Leaning Presents may, other than
to the face, allow some minor disfigurement to be depicted, especially if
in inconspicuous body areas or areas normally not seen by others.
   Subject to the "no serious injury" and "no major disfigurement" rules,
non-life threatening piercings, pricks, punctures, and lacerations anywhere
below the neck are always acceptable, and need not be consensual.  However,
body jewelry piercing and/or insertion anywhere but the ears, nipples, and
genitals must be by non-coerced consent only.  Use of clamps and clips are
not prohibited by this restriction.
   At its discretion, for stories set in an actual historical era other
than the present, Nialos Leaning Presents may make exceptions to the above
death, serious injury and major disfigurement prohibitions.  Such
exceptions will only be considered if the depiction is accurate for the
era, is not the major focus of the story, and constitutes only a small
portion of the overall text.
   Stories that contain scatology are never acceptable; however, enemas and
"water sports" are always acceptable.  Stories may not include food
deprivation as a punishment.
   Please submit all stories as SEPARATE, not in line, attachments in Word,
WordPad, WordPerfect, or plain text format with the subject Story
Submission.  Please use 12 point Courier for your font, with left and right
margins each set to 1.25 inches or some other combination totaling 2.5
inches.  Stories submitted in this way can be very quickly formatted for
posting to the site, in both plain text and HTML (web page) versions.  The
more time and effort it takes to format a story, the less likely it is to
be posted, and if posted, the longer the delay in getting it up.
   For an author's name, Nialos Leaning Presents strongly advises using a
pen name (pseudonym) and not the author's real name.  Additionally, authors
wishing to include a feedback email address with their stories are strongly
cautioned to use an email address that doesn't reveal their real name and
that can't be tied to their real name.  While Nialos Leaning Presents will
always honor an authors' requests to remove their stories from the site,
neither Nialos Leaning Presents nor our site host, ASSTR, have a way to
have such stories removed from search engine results or other Internet page
archives and caches.
   Thank you, and I hope to see your story soon!
