Thinking about writing..

[Mark Diplock]

I'm getting into the idea of posting some stories on the forum. I think i can write really well and am thinking of doing a few videogame related stories to start with.

But i'd like a little input here.. To anyone who's read the stories and gave it feedback. What do you like in your story? More sexually related content? Lots of long paragraphs on the tickling?

Do you like a good build up or would you rather go straight to the tickling part?

Let me know what you like in your stories..

The best advice is, write for yourself and what you enjoy. Write want you want from a story and it should be hunky dory.

Hey dude, good to see a fellow author! Here's my advice: write however you want to write. If you want to put in sexual content, do it. But don't feel like you have to, only put it in if you want to. If you want long paragraphs of detailed tickling, go ahead. I know I'd like it!
The best advice I can give you is to USE SPELL CHECK! I've seen so many stories with crappy spelling and grammar it makes me sick.
Basically, write with your own unique style. Hopefully that helps!

don't spend three paragraphs explaining the surroundings. Keep it short. Its the tickling that is why its read...not the atmosphere.

also in my opinion...describing what the lee is feeling while being tickled is also appreciated.

personally i like a build up..setting the scene..for me it's not just about the tickling..that gets a bit old...i like a plot with details and plenty of descriptions..plus i don't like the hehehehehe's or hahahahahah's..but write how you feel...write for yourself, and if others like it great..the first time i wrote a story here, i was very hesitant about posting as i was sure it was badly written. and learned since how to format correctly...just write whatever you like..i'm sure it will be terrific..

Hi Mark ,

I can imagine posting ur first story (i've only ever written one myself, never posted any!) would be pretty nervewracking, but just go for it and write what you like and what you would like to read yourself - chances are it will turn out a better story that way, rather than you going out of your comfort zone and writing to try and fit in with other peoples requests/styles that you wouldn't otherwise be particularly keen on reading yourself

I agree with Scinsor - check spelling and grammar - whenever you read and there's a mistake it always seems to break up the rhythm of the story.

My personal preference is a short paragraph setting the scene (who is there, where they are, what the weather is like etc lol) and then a short build up with little hints as to what is to come and then launch into the tickling attack. I'm not greatly into sexual content, I quite like the hehehehe and hahaha as long as it's not overdone and a good tickle fight is always good with more than one character getting their comeupance!!! Thats just me though.....just take a chance and write what you're comfortable with!

any idea which videogames/characters you're gonna write about?

Princess from MarioKart has always been a favourtie - best game ever by the way lol There were some very sexy ladies in Grim Fandango as well

Good luck, look forward to reading it! Cheers, TTG

Well i am toying with a few ideas at the moment. Heres a quick couple of thoughts running through my head.

Blaze Fielding.... (Streets of Rage ) She's been on my shortlist for a while now. I did a comic in my youth where she got the crap tickled out of her by Axel Stone.

Regina... Dino Crisis. Another lady in need of tickling to death.

Lara Croft... We've seen a few stories with her in it. But on the back of a new release of Tomb Raider, i'm gonna test those sensitive areas myself.

Eva or Meryl....( Metal Gear ) May yet decide to tickle them both.

Shiva.. ( Final Fantasy ) Most of the other ladies and some of the men have been tickled before. I cant remember the last time the ice guardian force/ Aeon got it.

Well thats a few of them. Not all of them. But this is just the begining. I'm planning a series called Government Sanction. It involves both regular people and celebrities. I'll let you know more if i get this one of the ground and running.

don't spend three paragraphs explaining the surroundings.

Or three paragraphs typing "HAHAHAHA STOP, PLEASE HAHAHAHA NO HAHAHAHA" etc. (I bet alot of us--myself included-- are guilty of having done that when first writing tickling stories)

Hiya Mark!
First congratulations that you want to take the plunge!! I think anyone who braves putting something out there deserves praise for going for it - even if it is badly written 😛

That said, i think the advice you have received here is pretty sound:
-Write the story that flows out of your tickle spot! 😀
If you include a lot of heeheeheehees or if there are few, if there's a built in setting and plot or not go for what feels good to you. All it means is you will attract the readers who share your interest.
Goodness knows there are enough members and lurkers around here to cover every taste.🙂

Still, don't neglect the practicals. Definitely do the spell check!! It is critical!!
None of us are perfect, but nothing is a bigger turn off than trying to wade through writing with a lot of glaring errors. (i know, i cringe at my earlier stuff!! )

Also, you will enhance the quality of your work if you read aloud to yourself what you have written. That way you can catch the things your spellcheck misses, like "eye bough two yore porous" instead of "I bow to your prowess".

As for taste: Notwithstanding what i said above, it's always good to hear from people about their reading preferences. So, speaking personally, I'm pretty much with Izzy on this.

I like the context fleshed out. I like some description. I need a good plot. I like characters that are mostly but not totally "good"/"evil" - For instance, I like to see something decent in the evil 'ler and something questionable in the good 'lee. This makes it easier for me to relate to the characters.
Personally, I'm pretty equal about the whole written 'laughter' thing. It's easy to read or skip depending on my mood.

For me the sexuality can be there or not. But i totally luuv the romance!!

Anyway, Mark, I hope this helps...

But even if not, Mark, i wish that for you the creative juices will flow and your Muse will be kind!! :

Many blessings in your writing!
Chickles

just a bit of advice, make sure things are paragraphed and spaced well. I'm extremely dyslexic and i won't bother reading something if it is just dense text

good luck, and hope to read some stuff of yours soon!
