Meme Announcements!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: UPDATED 12/16/2017

Happy Holidays, fellow Kinkmemers! I have returned and have no reasonable excuse for my absence except LIFE. I will be working on updating the archives. If anyone sees anything amiss, please let me know.

I am also hoping to find another Mod and an Archivist.

The more dedicated people we have in this Meme the less chance of it dying. I admit that being the sole keeper of the Meme is not great for the fandom. If something were to happen to me, for good, this place would go the way of the Fallout Kink Meme. Let's not let that happen! If anyone would be interested in Modding/Archiving, please drop me a line. Thanks! <3

Hey A!A,

Don't you worry I liked your first fill too! I'm sure we all remember our very first fill, our very first smut and it's hard! I think you did a good job on your first and you got some good comments to work with on improving and I really hope you do continue writing. I hate critisizing to be honest, cause I always feel kinda mean and I don't find my own writing all that great so who am I to critisize another's work... but I know how valuable it can be so I'll try giving you something to work with :)

Try to be a part of your story, live it as you write it. It'll make it easier to give more detail and draw things out. Let go of whatever inhibitions you may have and write that smut. Try going into detail, what do they do and feel, the sounds they make. In the case of your fill you could for example have explained more the things the DB felt, did the dwemer-phallus hit the right spot? How deep did it go? Did it alternate speeds? And how did the DB feel throughout this? What where her thoughts? Those are things readers (or at least me) like to read about, it gives the story more depth.

Character development is difficult in a oneshot but you can use little things as thoughts or remarks. They can project the image that your character is for example humorous, snarky, kind or evil. I liked how you put in a little memory of her last time having sex, it gives her a little more background, they help in developing your character.

Personally I would take the comments you've been given and expand on this story, make it better. I think that's the easiest way to learn a bit more before moving on to your next. But it's all up to you of course :) I wish you all the best in your writing endeavours, and please don't stop writing!

Thanks for the advice! I'll try to consider these things the next time I write. Your suggestion and tips seem like they could make fleshing out both the personality and the smut a lot easier.

I may try using these comment to improve this fill like you said, it seems like a good idea to me :) If so, should I re-post them here, or as a new thing altogether?

I'm glad you think you can work with it, hopefully we'll see you grow :) That's the beauty of a place like this, you can practice and if asked people will tell you what they think and help you along :)

If you're going to repost I think, since it's technically still a fill for this prompt you should do it here and add something to the title like - redone - or something along those lines so that we know it's from the same author and not someone trying to steal your work :)

Unless you end up rewriting it so that it no longer fills the prompt, then it's best posted as an entirely new story :)

Goodluck!

Okay, thanks for the advice. I've got a big exam coming up and will be revising for that but once it's over I will probably try again. Thanks again. A!A

You're most welcome A!A! I'm so glad you still want to continue writing, nobody should be discouraged to do something they enjoy. I for one look forward to your next work!
