Thank you all for your continued interest in the story writing contest. A total of 13 possible themes were suggested in the past two weeks. Now it is time to put them in a vote to pick the one to use!

Please select your favorite, or favorites, in this poll on the ATF Forum. You can select one, two, or as many options as you want. So please read the list below, then tick the boxes of the theme or themes that you would like to see used in the next ATF Story Writing Contest!

(P.S.: Take your time to consider your votes, but don't take too much time - the poll will be open for two weeks after posting this message. Also consider your vote well. You cannot change your vote once you have cast it.)

(EDIT: One more option added after a day - see the theme submission topic for the reason)

Themes suggested (ordered by length of the theme name):

• Twins
  A simple theme with many possibilities, left to the writers. It's simple, but it's a good opportunity to give focus to character development and detail. Time for stories about love, conflict, or jealousy. Take your pick or think of another powerful emotion. But there need to be twins in this story... and sex.
• Reverse
  The story has to be told in reverse chronological order. This means that every shift in time period must be to a period [I]before[/I] the preceding one. There must be at least three such sections, but more is allowed.
  (See here for a more detailed explanation)
• Halloween
  Stories must be in any way related to Halloween.
• Little spies
  A story about one or more children training for, or working as, underage spy or assassin.
• Time Travel
  A character from one moment in time travels to another. This can be traveling into the past or the future by any means, deliberately or accidentally.
• Interruption
  Story must include at least one sex scene where the sex is interrupted when one partner talks about a previous sexual experience.
• Twisted Logic
  Use creative twists of logic (or "logic") to arrive at unlikely conclusions, which would enable the underage sex in the story to happen.
• Metamorphosis
  One or more characters undergoes a bodily transformation—which is either a drastic or complete change to their physical body—as a main component of the story.
  The change can be gradual (over days or years) or sudden (like how a werewolf do). While the metamorphosis need not be permanent, it should still affect a serious change in their lives.
• Magical realism
  Stories written in a style that blurs the line between fantasy and reality, in often a sort of dream like, surrealistic way. [URL='https://reedsy.com/discovery/blog/magical-realism']Here[/URL] is a good description.
• Coercive Incest
  Any story that involves incest achieved through coercion. The coercion can be subtle manipulation, flat out rape, or anything in between.
• Stranded/marooned
  Characters are stuck (for example due to a plane crash, ship wreck, weather, space ship malfunction, etc.), and they decide to throw caution into the wind. Desperate situations call for desperate actions—crossing the erotic boundary.
• The parent(s) made me do it
  An 'innocent 'adult' is drawn into a sexual relationship with a child, 'forced' by their parent(s).
  (Note that 'forced' is not limited to literal force, but includes any type of coercion, trickery, etc. Get creative!)
• Pubescent sex change
  Everyone is born as the same sex but in late puberty or early adulthood changes to the other sex, so that in order for procreation to happen adults have to be pedo/hebephiles because there aren't any adults of the opposite sex.
