Following the outline laid out in @Zekar's Story Challenge: Rule of 3 thread, I've decided to do a short story in this mold - one that I have long threatened to do but have never got to since I've been inundated with real life and trying to finish Lois Lane's Night Out and non-CHYOA writing. But this is only forty chapters (1 + 3 + 9 + 27), which is almost nothing, so I think I can work on it without impacting LLNO completion too bad. So the basic high level idea of Bad Sex is a story where the sex goes catastrophically wrong somehow. Not necessarily gore, although I reserve the right for penises to get sprained, but...like all the bad sex things you've heard about. People who learned terrible things from sex ed. Strange, ill-thought-out kink scenarios. Improvised BDSM gear. Unlikely sex partners. I'll only be able to cover a fraction of the possibilities, but I think it might be...fun. Stupid and badly written, but fun. Anyway, I've got the outline done and I've written the first couple chapters. Nothing is posted yet, but I feel like if I have a development thread I'll keep on track of it and finish it. The current plan is to write everything and then post, since it's such a short story. Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [0/9] - Pending Chapter 3s: [0/27] - Pending
Theoretically, although it's not currently on the list. I might make it a moderated story so others can add to it.
Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [1/9] - In Progress Chapter 3s: [1/27] - In Progress That's 1/27 storylines complete. I could just post these things as they go up...but I dunno, all at once has an appeal.
Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [1/9] - In Progress Chapter 3s: [3/27] - In Progress 3/27 storylines complete.
Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [2/9] - In Progress Chapter 3s: [3/27] - In Progress 3/27 storylines complete. I'm sticking to pretty basic names at the moment (Sam/Shelly/etc.) but debating fiddling with the code so readers can assign their own. Haven't played with that before, but might be time to learn.
Is this related to your comment on my Marcie & Gina review? Because if I helped inspire a terrible sex CHYOA (even in the tiniest way), I would be so proud.
Not directly; I've been thinking about doing something like Bad Sex forever, just never got around to it. But I am writing a BDSM scene right now. Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [2/9] - In Progress Chapter 3s: [5/27] - In Progress 5/27 storylines complete. It's hard to do these things justice with only three chapters, and I don't know if what I'm doing works, exactly...but what the hell, it's kind of fun so far. It's rare for anyone to actually expend any energy on bitching about my chapters.
Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [2/9] - In Progress Chapter 3s: [6/27] - In Progress 6/27 storylines complete. Got busy with non-porn stories tonight.
Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [3/9] - In Progress Chapter 3s: [7/27] - In Progress 7/27 storylines complete. 12/40 chapters complete. Does anybody care if I publish this piecemeal or all at once?
Introduction: [1/1] - Complete Chapter 1s: [1/3] - In Progress Chapter 2s: [3/9] - In Progress Chapter 3s: [9/27] - In Progress 9/27 storylines complete. 14/40 chapters complete. That's one full branch complete.. Like a lot of stories, the plan changes a little bit during the writing...I should really be trying to make the sex worse, but...eh, will keep going. See what the reader response, if any, is when the story is finally posted.
Went ahead and submitted the intro for approval. Should save time. Hell, if I time things right maybe I can publish a chapter a day. No guarantees.
Bad Sex begins here. Current plan is to try and keep the writing up so I can post 1 chapter a day. We'll see how that goes, but there's a good bit "in the pipe," so it's definitely doable.

Latest chapter: Weak Heart I've got enough of a backlog at this point I could probably post two chapters a day - what do people think, like the pace or speed it up a little?
What the hell, I'll post two chapters a day. I can keep up the pace.
