Writing Contest 2024/I - Call for prompts
I know, I know. All of you (or at least most) are still working hard to finish your entry for the second story writing contest. And yet, here I am, thinking about the next round already.
At this time, I have no rule changes planned. This means that the contest once more is held both here and on the ATF Forum. And it also means that you can still choose to submit anonymously or under your own name.
Discussion about rules is always welcome in the Rules Discussion topic, or you can send me your thoughts via my talk page. Now would be a great idea to propose your ideas, because I can now still change the rules for the next contest.
But the most important ingredient for the next contest is of course: a writing prompt. For this I need your help! Please share your suggestions for the theme or assignment for this second contest, either in the relevant forum topic (where it can also be discussed), or through my talk page.
As before, everyone is restricted to propose just one suggestion, otherwise the list becomes way too long. Also, the themes "Magical Children" and "Twins" have already been used, so let's not propose those again, okay?
Do keep in mind that All The Fallen caters to all tastes: loli, shota, furry, and everything else. Any suggestion that implicitly or explicitly rules out some categories will be modified when possible, or else rejected.
Tip 1: A good writing prompt restricts the writers enough to challenge them to be creative, but does not restrict them so much that their creativity is smothered. A commission is not a good prompt!
Tip 2: Check back here after you submit a suggestion. I might suggest rewording your suggestion, to make it a better fit for the purpose of the contest. If you feel that my edit changes your submission too much, then please let me know and we'll work out a good alternative.
I reserve the right to refuse suggested prompts if I think they would be detrimental for the competition.
Note that all accepted suggestions will be put up for a vote. The suggestions with the most votes will be used in the contest.
Suggestions for the contest theme/assignment can be submitted until December 31, 2023, 18:00 UTC (click link for a countdown, in case you are as time zone challenged as I am).
Themes suggested so far:
- Sex at the Olympics
It's the Olympics. Athletes from all around the world gather to see who's best in their sports. Can you write a sex story against that background? From competitive sex through buying jury favors to fully unrelated sex against that background, anything goes in the Olympic spirit: participation is more important than winning. - Post-apocalypse
The world as we know it has ended. Survivors are struggling to make ends meet in a barren world. But even in those circumstances, sex will still find a way. - Crossovers
Take the characters from two or more universes and throw them together. Writer's selections should be completely unrelated to each other. Example... Batman and Superman although are different series, they are part of the same universe... and therefore would not qualify.
Longer explanation here. - One of Us
Whether they are good or evil, formal or informal, open or secret, your story must feature a sizeable group of people who associate because of their shared attraction to children. It must also depict one character's introduction or initiation into this society, club, or association. - Sexual education
Sex must be learned, by experimentation or by teaching. That can be done in many ways and at many ages. Write a story about sexual education, either like it is in our real world or about how it could be in a fantasy world, or perhaps focus on how the world is affected by what and how we teach our children about sex. - Surrealism
Create an inventive, original story that is as far removed from reality as you can possibly make it. Innovate and stretch your creative imagination to its furthest extreme and then push it even further. - Mythology
Set your story in any existing mythological background.
Note that the organizer might ask you to clarify and specify the mythology if he does not recognize it. - Forced Exposure
Characters are found in a place or situation where, for one reason or another, they are forced to be naked. This does not have to be in public, but it would be a nice bonus. - Dystopian
Find something to live for in a world that has nothing to offer. Worldbuilding skills are needed with this one. - Interracial
Stories that feature characters from different races interacting together, for good or for bad. - Lost and alone
A character finds themself all alone, and lost. This does not mean they have to be the only character in the story, but they must at one point in the story be without any companions or friends. - Fantasy creature sex
One or more fantasy creatures play an important part in the story. They need to be involved in at least one sex scene, but to keep it interesting, there should also be emphasis on their culture, habits, etc. - 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. - Historical
Explores the dynamics of various chronophilias in a time period before any of us was alive. To make it easy: stories must be set before 1900. While historical accuracy is encouraged, it is not required, as long as the story has enough cultural verisimilitude to fool the average reader. - Under the Same Roof
Characters who were just recently strangers find themselves living together and having to share living space. Doesn't have to be complete strangers, but living together is a new and rather sudden development. - Super!
Any story where one or more of the characters have a super power, whether they use it to be superhero, super villain, or remain quietly undercover, that is up to you.
Note that this prompt allows existing "universes" such as Marvel or DC, but writers are also free to create their own universe, characters, and powers. - ```Orgy```
The story must include at least one sex scene with five or more participants. - Prostitution<br"The story must include sexual acts being performed as a transaction, in exchange for money or favors. The character committing the act does not necessarily need to be the one receiving payment.
