This is my first short story- I write a great deal of poetry and have been working on a couple of books over the past few years. I am actually considering expanding on this and possibly turning it into a series. I have posted it here, because I want HONEST opinons of the work. Admitedly I wrote in in about 20 minutes, so it may not be very good to some. Of course I need an editor...lol But I wrote this about a year and a half ago, and have been tossing it around in my head again, with the thought of expanding on it. I have placed it here because I have seen a great deal of awesome work in this forum, and am hoping for some ideals as to the piece. I would like to know your likes, or dislikes about it. I of course already know that gramatically it is far from perfect, so maybe we could do without the spelling, grammar bashing. It is readable and I want thoughts on the story line. Can you envision it as you read it, what does it lack, what is good about it.. and so on.

If you are interested in my poetry I can post some of that as well, just let me know :)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------








As he laid the phone down he thought to himself, who is this crazy woman. What was her facination with him and why was she so sure that he was the one she wanted for all time. And what the hell was all time anyway. After two failed marriages and a few last attempts at the dating thing... who believed in that anymore. What a fruitcake he mumbeled as he headed for the shower, soon he would be lost in sleep and nothing else mattered.

Over the next few weeks she invaded his thoughts, always lurking somewhere in the back of his mind.. sometimes he despised her for that. They had a few conversations, but mostly he was just trying to be polite to her, and she sensed that in him. His life was far too busy and complicated for the mess she was wanting to throw herself into, he knew that and so did she. Finally after weeks of idle conversation, that sometimes lead to the raunchier side of things he decided that once and for all they would meet. He would satisfy her curiosity as well as his own. But he thought to himself as he drove toward her small hometown.. After this I will never have to hear from her again, once I do this she will stay away. He half wanted that, and another part of him thought.. what if she is right, what if for some reason we are meant to be together. Damn that woman, how does she creep into his head and occupy his thoughts with such sillyness? He drove on.

When he arrived at her home he was surprised that she did not run thru the door to greet him. She had always been so right there with him. He laughed to himself and thought.. did I realy expect her to hear me coming down the street and run to me? As he knocked upon the door he wondered if he had made a mistake, he really didn't want to hurt her. But it had been sometime since he had felt the soft skin of a woman and she seemed so eager to please him in any way he wished. He knew he didn't believe in love any longer, what was he thinking. She never asked him for that though, in fact now that he thought of it she never asked him for anything.

When she came to the door he was surprised at just how pretty in life she was. He had seen pictures, but they did not complete her beauty. She had penatrating eyes, the kind that look straight thru you, into your own darkness. They reflected his darkness back at him, for a moment he could only stare.As she said hello and stepped aside for him to enter his mind paused for a second. Then he remebered how complicated this could be, and walked thru the door. Her home was pleasant not nearly as feminine as he had expected. Most women go out of thier way to make it obvious that it is a womans house. Her home was just.. comfortable. They spent the next hour talking about simple things, and they laughed. He looked into her eyes again and slowly reached out for her. All he wanted to do at that moment was kiss her.
Her lips where like fire to him, hot and moist. She smelled of honeysuckle mixed with the faint smell of smoke, he was amazed at how good she felt. How good she smelled. He pulled her closer, her body pressing to his now, he tasted her desire mixed with his. It had been so long since he had felt a woman in that way, there had been the occasional sexual romp of course, but she made him feel alive. It scared him a little, but not enough to stop. She took his hand and lead him down a hall, toward a bedroom somewhere in the back of the house. He struggeled to adjust his vision in the dark then gave up, allowing her to lead him. Her room was soft, a crystal ball sat upon the dresser that flickered lights onto the ceiling, ever changing colors. It gave the room a mythical feeling. He felt as if they had stepped back in time. A cast iron canopy stood at the center of the room, adorned with white sheers, they swayed softly to the rythem of the ceiling fan. She stood before him and looked up at him, he felt her searching his soul, felt her looking inside of him. He quickly pulled back a little mentally, he had no time for complications. He wanted to taste her desire, more than anything he wanted her. But he couldn't forget the way it had to end. This was afterall one night, by tomorrow she would be gone from him and he would be able to go on with his life the way it used to be. Without her invading his thoughts. She never said a word, but he sensed she felt his shift in tempature. Slowly she removed her blouse, and he reached out to touch her soft breasts, then slowly bent to take one to his mouth, she exhaled deeply. Before there was thought he realized they were on the bed now, and as he reached up to adjust the pillow her head layed upon he felt the restraints. He smiled ammusingly to himself. He pulled the rope out and slowly wrapped it around the bend of her arm, tracing circles with it until he reached her wrists, then tied her to the corner post. He repeated the ritual on the other arm. Her breath quickened but she never spoke. It was odd, as if they spoke to each other without words. He found the silken rope that layed at the foot of the bed and began to wrap her legs from the knee down. But instead of tying her to the foot of the bed he threw the rope to the side, then got off the bed and shoved it under, going around to the other side and pulling it out. He then wrapped the rope up her other leg, leaving her spread wide upon the bed. Again she never spoke. He leaned over her now and kissed her fully, pushing his tounge into her hot mouth deeper than he had before, she squirmed against the restraints trying to get closer to him. He smiled. He looked at her and slowly unzipped his pants, her eyes met his and he shuddered with desire. He wanted her more than he had ever wanted anyone and his body responded accordingly.As his pants slid off his hips his bulging cock pressed firmly and strained against his boxers. Her eyes had widened, he could see she was pleased and amazed, yet she never spoke. As he shoved the last of his clothing to the floor he climbed upon the bed.

First he kissed her neck, and she shuddered against him, he could tell she was lost in desire. He slowly began to bite her, soft at first than harder, he felt as if he were a vampire and he wanted to taste her blood. Odd he thought for a moment than he continued. She moved her head to one side as if inviting him to take her and he did. Her blood was like wine, it intoxicated him and made his head light. Softly she moaned beneath him. He started moving lower kissing and tasting her, she felt divine under him and tasted of pure desire. As he reached that spot betwen her bound and spread legs he stopped and looked up at her. She was beautiful and he knew it, this was just too good. He tasted her then, she tasted sweet, and felt better than he had imagined she would. He heard her moan softly and she raised her hips to his mouth, she was on the verge and he could feel her heat. As she came he heard her speak for the first time since they had begun, she said one word.. his name.

His cock swelled more as she spoke softly, as if by instinct. He raised up and moved toward her mouth. Kissing her deeply once again. Her lips felt so good. He raised up even further and took his cock to her mouth, she seemed eager to taste him. He slowly yet firmly rubbed it against her lips, damn she felt good. And she wanted him. He was getting more excited by the minute with her, she was making him feel as if he were in a dream, after a few minutes of her tounge against his skin he had to pull back. She was driving him mad. He moved back down and rubbed his cock against her clit, it was also hard and it felt good against him. He loved the way she looked bound to the bed in that manner.He slowly slid himself part way into her, her pussy was hot, and he wondered if she would be able to accomadate his size, it felt as if his cock was locked in a vise grip, she was tight and hot, and wet. She felt good, he heard a deep groan that barely seemed recognizable as his own. And he slid further in. He started softly breaking her into his size, then worked up to a deeper harder pace, she strained against the restraints, he liked that. He fucked her harder and harder and she began to scream his name.. she begged for more and he felt as if he would explode right then within her, but he wanted to wait, wanted it to last longer, it felt so good there between her legs. He reached above her head and untied her arms.. she immediatly reached for him, he slipped out of her grasp. He then untied her legs and was surprised when she flipped him onto his back. She mounted him with such fury it made him dizzy. She rode him with a passion that was animalistic, and as she came she soaked him, losing control and urinating as she came, he liked that and was even more hungry for her. He quickly rolled the two of them back over and hovered above her before he pushed hard into her. Deep this time without any need for gentleness, he was frenzied as he slid in and out of her. She wrapped her arms around him just as he felt the first spasm shake his body, she lifted to him, and he shook, his mind was black and she whispered softly in his ear she loved him, as he heard her voice he slipped further into the orgasm that was raking his body, his hips bucked against hers and in that moment he knew.. he loved her too.

Mind You these are My Opinions, Im gonna take it that this is a
Lifestyle Fantasy book You are writing as apposed to a erotic sex one:
now if Your idea is to make this a Lifestyle type Book this is My
observations.

led into intimacy to quick and really is more what would happen in a
vanilla one nite stand
quote:

[They spent the next hour talking about simple things, and they
laughed. He looked into her eyes again and slowly reached out for her. All he
wanted to do at that moment was kiss her.]


Does not show a SSC mindset in this action it doesent show in the words how
they got to the point where they are agreeable to a BDSM act and depending
on how you will name this Book and how it will be sold in book style if
ever this would be important if you expect the mass media to read it and
gain their view of what BDSM is. Emagine the reader as being sumone whom
had no clue of what BDSM is. Would these words show them that its ok to let
sumone you just met act out such a thing with out pryor discussion of it in
a SSC manner?
quote:

[He pulled the rope out and slowly wrapped it around the
bend of her arm, tracing circles with it until he reached her wrists, then tied
her to the corner post. He repeated the ritual on the other arm.]


shows unprotected sex
is this what you desire to have a reader with no sexual experiance to read. The
book is bought by a 17 year old virgin and the words turn her on. Does the words
give a clue what responcibilities should be taken befor all this lust erupts?
I would of added him adding sum kind of protection in the least befor these words so that protection can be added in a sensual way
quote:

[He moved back down and rubbed his cock against her clit,]
In Lifestyle writing I feel We must incorperate saftey as well and the SSC rules so that
just like the acts they become second nature and a natural part of whats addressed
along with a pussy and cock. There are many Erotic and Passion Writers but only a hand full whom give real life applications of the Fantasys written to show the current mindset of what Our Lifestyle and Life in todays times encludes and saftey is a really big issue that should be shown with in any erotic or passionete movement between Alternate Adults.

I enjoyed the read and I could most definatly vision the scene however I will tell
You what I saw. I saw two Adults acting in a dangerous way, a very vanilla way with
no experiance and this story could take many turns say at the moment the man felt
love He also felt He had to kill her for He wanted nothing more of Loves feelings
and with her being bound could strangle her killing her orrr he leave and she never returns a call and six months later he is told he has HIV well You see where Im going with that giggles Im good at busting bubbles.
Ill let it stay for now as this and good luck with your writing Mod3.
I can refer You to My editors
but they cost a pretty penny.
[You know they make a living off
of Me ] LOL!

Thanks for letting us read this story!

I also write and am intersted in trying to write erotica, too. Someday, when I have courage, I'll submit some here. (I'm a fairly gutless sub)

So here goes on my opinion on Embrace:

1. General comment: Get out of my bedroom!

Yeah, I'd say your story is realistic and arousing. Though I do understand what DREAD is saying regarding SSC, in my relationship we've been married way too long to worry about safe sex, or negotiation.... so the story sat well with me...

2. It might be more diverting to start the story with his thought of "Who is this woman", rather than the action of him laying down the phone. In fact in that first paragragh he might also think, "Who am I even tempted..." Since he does think that later, and resolving his doubts and ambigiousness seems to be the theme of this story. Which by the way is a nice theme...

3. I like the description of her eyes, and the sensual descriptions of the touch and smell of her body. Can you integrate a little more info about color and texture of hair, her name, is she tall, fat? Etc... Look of her skin and size and shape of breasts and nipples? I love the way you say her house is comfy, not feminine.

4. I'd like to see more exploration of taste and smell of her. More than just hot or sweet... How about salty? Changes in her firmness as he ministers... pulsing. You know what I'm saying... I have to stop here.

5. Fantastic the way she squirms in the restraints to get closer to him. This is but one of many examples of where you are a superior writer; the push-pull, action-reaction of the couple. Until they finally both admit they are in love... Your skills at choreography are what make the interaction so great between them without any dialog at all. (Course that's what good sex is, no?)

6. Give her LOTS of orgasms. Not just one!

January

Thank you all for your replies.

I have no intention of selling anything, this was my first short story, the books I am working on are more in depth and not lifestyle related at all.

I understand and appreciate your comments Dread, and as I said this was a first for me. It was just a thought running thru my little head is all. I wrote it down, and honestly put little thought into it. I have had a few share their thoughts on it, but wanted to share it with you guys as well and get some feed back.

Again, thanks to all of you that tookthe time to read and comment!

I enjoyed your writing.As with first time writings it is rough but is what I feel as a normal learning process.I found myself looking for sub plots and wondering.Just as you I write poetry and have posted a couple stories.Poets do not a writer make un fortunately.BUT...with each new work the writing does improve and This one would enjoy reading some of your poetic creations.

Most respectfully, I'd like to comment on the comments here.

First, there are always various venues of writing. I have created several "lifestyle learning groups" in MSN. Designed to inform and provide links to additional lifestyle information. The pages are so noted, for the newcomers, even a map is contained within my main site...so people can see what area contains what information.

Secondly, being an aspiring author myself, with one self-published (non-lifestyle book) behind me~I know, for me, when I write "erotica" I step out of the my teaching/mentoring persona.

The Story of O(Pauline Reage) existed long before the terms of SSC or RACK. Adults understand that it is erotica...fiction, written to stimulate the corradors of our mind.

I write to have minds titillated, tantalized, perhaps inspire. I add a disclaimer before or after (when I remember to)~but I am not going to stop the flow of a story to add technical writing. My creative writing and technical report writing were two seperate classes in college. And when I desire "good, intellectual knowledge" I do not go to the erotica section of a library.

We are all adults here due to the nature of this site. Therefore, I presume adults will act and think like adults when they are in real life situations.

Thank you for your time...those are just my thoughts on thoughts.

Humbly,

~feather~

I wasn't going to say anything, but I must agree with feather. While it can teach and guide, the purpose of erotica certainly does not have to be those things. I find that the erotica I enjoy most (both reading and writing) is the kind that pushes the edges. For me, I find erotica to be a way to safely enjoy things that I would never practice in real life.

Your mileage, may of course vary...

Today, now that I have had more sleep I will focus on your story. Last night or in the wee hours of the darkness, I merely replied to one of the replies.

Writing is one of my passions and and I have several "rough drafts" in one of my MSN groups of my writing, these include those I've posted here and "articles". Not sure if a novella exists in me or not. My one book was comprised of poetry, thoughts and verse, it is titled "Highheels, With Moccasin Soul."

So as I sip my morning java, I shall go to the story and make my comments later. Smiles, I believe everyone has a book or two within them to share with the world~and I encourage any aspiring author to pull it from the recesses of their mind and put it on paper. Thank you for taking the time and finding the courage to do so. Every author begins by putting that first word down in black and white.

I am off to have my mind teased and tugged.

Humbly,

feather

First and foremost know I have no degree in English, nor journalism. I did recieve A's and B's in composition, technical report writing and in speech while working on my liberal arts degree; however, this does not qualify me to be an editor by any means.

Your draft has hope and potential. I do suggest that you check into your local continuing education classes on Creative Writing and join creative writing classes that may be within your community.

As for your story line, I had difficulty in the transition from "vanilla" to the lifestyle, it seems the ropes were miraculously found on the bed. Who put them there and why were they there in the first place? When did the lifestyle enter into his mind; before or after the entrance of the ropes into the story?

Yes, more detail could be painted into the story, of her and of the main character. There were spots of good imagery. As we write we are painting a mental picture, use adjectives to color the canvas you are presenting to others.

I had to copy the story to word and toss it through spell check (which I should remember to do myself sometimes, even in my responses!) and there were areas I needed to re-write in order to capture the essence you are trying to project to the reader. There were many fragmented sentences and paragraphs which did not flow, as time goes on you will become aware of these things.

Yes, creative writing classes would truly assist you. Most certainly there are editors, which range from costly, to your local people, whom often offer their services to keep busy in their retirement, or to make a small income from within their home. They are often retired instructors or professors who desire to fill their time with something which brings them joy.

Do not be discouraged, writers know nothing is perfect in the first few rough drafts. You told us it was a draft, smiles, so why should we expect perfection? I am the worst proof-reader of my work. In my mind I know what my words are supposed to be conveying, thus even with my book of poetry, I found a free-lance editor who reviewed it and then after final touches were made, put the manuscript together for the printer.

So there you have it, some ramblin' thoughts, by this "unprofessional" aspiring writer!

Aspiring is so much better than perspiring! <wink, wink>

Humbly,

feather

hmmm since I am reading that words are being posted not on Mods works here but on the comments to them I am going to assume that they are being made about My comments. I as a reader was asked to give comment on what I read and what I seen and that is what I did. If there are those whom take issue because I expressed what I seen and read then it is they whom seem to have the issue for I was mearly putting to words what I felt and what I was asked for. I am the least person that seeks perfection and I would think that it would be the writer Their selfs whom would be most guilty of this act. I know that My thoughts and My opinons are NOT of the norm nor NOT accepted by most which is not out of the ordinary for Me but they are still what We all were asked for and They are a honest opinion of My reading. If I dident care for the writings nor see a future of Mod having many books on such writings I would not of wasted My time on any comment at all. JMP OK Im done with this tread

OMG, you wrote that in 20 min, that's great. I love to write poetry and it takes me more than 20 min sometimes. I did like your story, I personally think anyone that could write something like that in 20 min has great talents. I would love to read something you took more time out for. I love how detailed it was, espescially writing in such a short time. Good short story.

I know this has been posted for about a month now, but I just read it. I have to admit that I'm very impressed. For a rough draft and the amount of time you spent on it, I was intrigued. LOL, I'm not a writer myself, so can offer no advise, only that I thought it was interesting.
