If you want to see your story published on its first submission, here are some tips:
Please read our Story Submission Rules to make sure your story is compliant. This is very important. Certain scenarios and sexual practices are not allowed.
Please do not depend on spell check to edit your story. Read it carefully to check your spelling because spell check will allow misspellings that are words, often with hilarious results, e.g. I put my arms around her waste. As you see, they simply do not catch everything.
Please format your story into paragraphs of about four sentences or where the narrative should logically break. All dialogue should be formatted into separate paragraphs each time someone speaks. A mass of prose with few or no paragraph breaks will be returned to you.
Submissions should all be left-aligned. Please do not submit your stories justified, right-aligned, or centered. We appreciate uniformity in our layout and content presentation, plus it takes up a lot of time to manually change entries that aren't formatted as we'd like.
Please do not overuse exclamation marks. They lose their power if used in every other sentence.
Please check your verb tense throughout your story to be sure it is consistent. Many submissions have tense shifts from past to present and back again.
Please take a look at the proper form for punctuation, formatting, and capital/lower case letters for dialogue in published stories and follow that example in your story.
Please do not use text speak/emoticons in your story or short forms like &, or ok, or lbs. Use the entire words.
Please express all numbers in your story as words unless they refer to measurements or the time of day.
Your title should not be formatted in all caps and should not include text speak or emoticons. Your Title Should Look Like This. Do not repeat the title in the body of your story. Notes to the reader should be placed in the Author's Note
Please do not expect that you can spend an hour putting your thoughts in writing and that it will be published. The writers whose work is most admired here on Lush spend time editing and improving their stories before they are submitted and published. If you put in the time and effort, you will have the satisfaction of only minor edits being done by the mods and your story will be posted on its first submission.
Please do not resubmit your story as new with no changes after it has been returned to you for editing. This is a waste of the volunteer time of the mods as well as your time and risks a suspension from publishing if you continue to do this. Please do your edits within SBW so that the moderators can see previous editorial notes to you on your resubmitted story. We want to maintain a high quality of erotica by insisting that stories be literate before they are published. We are certain that you would not want that to change.
Walk away from your story for a few hours, or as long as a day. When you keep rereading your story, you see what should be there because you know what you have written. Time and distance will give you the perspective to see your mistakes. Often times reading it out loud allows you to hear what it actually says versus what you think it says.
Please take the time to read the resources available on all aspects of writing in the writers' forum. They will help you polish your work and allow it to be published more quickly.

We all need a little help at times and this is a perfect place to ask for it.
If you are someone that writes or just someone with an eye for editing, why not offer your services to your fellow writers?
This section is just for that. If you are a writer in need of help ask here. If you are someone that can help please respond to those in need.

Submission Rules:
We do not accept stories that feature minors. Teen stories are fine provided the characters in the story are 16 years old. This includes flashbacks or memories. If you flashback or have a memory and their first sexual experience is under sixteen, your story will be returned.
Please know that all stories that contain references to children will be removed, and the submitter will be banned from the site at our discretion.
We do not accept stories containing incest. Taboo stories with stepparents or stepsiblings and in-laws are fine.
We do not allow stories containing , grooming, scat, abusive situations, graphic violence, totally unwilling participants(those that just give in to save themselves or others), racism, homophobic slurs, drugging, dangerous sexual acts, suicide, blood(during sex) or death(during sex).
We understand that when dealing with Supernatural or horror stories there may be both blood and death and we will take them on a case-by-case basis, depending on how it is presented. Because of course, most vampires tend to feed during sex.
One of the last big no-noes is stories featuring sex with animals (bestiality). All such stories will be deleted as soon as we come across them and the offenders banned without warning.
Please only submit one story at a time and wait for that to be approved before submitting another one.
Quick Tips Before You Submit:
Ask yourself these questions,
Do I already have a story submitted for review?
Have I broken any of the rules above?
Does My Title Look Like This
or
Is it more like this
“Is my dialogue punctuation on the inside of the quotation marks?” Molly asked.
“Punctuation marks are important,” she said.
Molly asked, “Do my sentences start with a capitalized letter?”
Are my paragraphs really long or perhaps one long paragraph?
Have I done a proper edit so my story doesn’t come back for misspelling or missing words?

Hiya. I thought maybe I could offer a little insight into this. We all proceed on different levels. Personally, I don't feel comfortable showing my face to everyone, especially to those that I don't click with.
For some, sharing their face on a site full of strangers is scary. Your face is the connection between here and your personal life and if you are new to this that is a scary leap to take.
On sites such as this, it is important that we all feel comfortable and move in a way that makes us feel safe. For you and many others, it may not be a big deal, but not everyone is where you are yet and that's okay. You have every right to avoid those that do not openly share their faces, but you might be missing out on some wonderful connections.

Remember everyone, have fun, be respectful, and be safe!

Here is a gentle reminder of the rules:
It's easy, name a song title from A-Z and keep going.
The only rule is that the same person cannot post twice in a row.
The one above should have been a Q so I'm just going to reset with an R.
Ready Or Not - Fugees
Next song will begin with an S
