Do you wanna contribute a story to our little story board? Before you do, just let me go over a few of the rules with you to make sure you know what we are looking for.

Your story can be a work of fact or fiction. It can be a huge, multi-part epic or it could describe a brief one-night stand. It can be humorous, romantic, tragic, or anything else that appeals to you. You can write explicit sex scenes that detail every last thing your characters do together, or you can do it do it like one of those old movies where everything is implied, leaving things to your reader’s imagination. Your tale could take place in the past, the present, or even the future.

Simply put, you are invited to let your imagination run wild! Really the only restriction I have is that anybody involved in a sexual situation in your story has to be sixteen years old or older. Kiddie porn is not welcome here.

If you find a story out there somewhere but didn’t write it yourself, you can still post it here to share with the rest of us. I do ask that you do your best to contact the author to make sure they don’t have a problem with it, though. Be warned that I will delete any story from this site if it’s author requests it.

With regards to how the story should be formatted, no, I do not insist that you break it up into paragraph blocks as I do. If your more comfortable doing it some other way, then I won’t have any problem with your going your own way. I do insist that you make the effort to break it up into paragraphs somehow in order to improve it’s readability.

And on the subject of readability, keep an eye on your spelling and grammar!

Your story is posted here on an html page and so even if you have a word or phrase underlined or in italics or something, that won’t transfer to my site successfully. If you want to have anything like that in your story, you absolutely must use the correct html tags.

In the following examples, remember to replace this > with this ], and this < with this [.

If you want to have a word, sentence, or phrase in italics, you must put the tag <i> in front of it and the tag </I> at the end.

If you want to have a word, sentence, or phrase underlined, you must put the tag <u> in front of it and the tag </u> at the end.

If you want to have a word, sentence, or phrase in bold, you must put the tag <b> in front of it and the tag </b> at the end.

A much easier way to do this though would be to use your mouse to highlight the section of your story you want to underline or whatever and then to press the appropriate button. The correct tags will automatically be applied at the beginning and the end of the section you’ve highlighted.

And just how much of a story can you fit into a single post?

The absolute maximum limit right now for any single post is 200 kilobytes worth of stuff. That may not seem like much, but you’ll just have to trust me that you can fit quite a long tale into that much space. If the story you want to tell is going to be a long one though, I would strongly suggest that you break it up into a couple of chapters so that it won’t seem quite so daunting for the reader.

Besides, ending a chapter on a cliffhanger will help keep the readers on the edge of their seats waiting for your next installment!

Well, that should do it! Have fun writing! We can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Ichabod's Erotica has a new rule!

As I'll soon be moving all of the stories into just one forum, we're setting up a set of story codes so that our readers will know what they are getting into before they open a post and can be warned of any content they might not wish to read about. The codes are designed to take up as little room as possible and should be placed inside parenthesis in the optional subtitle line as in the following example:

The Tawdry Nymphomaniac
An innocent teenaged girl falls prey to her inner demons. (L)


Pending any updates, here are the story codes I have at the moment:

"S" will stand for straight. This means that all of the stories sexual activity takes place between men and women and there is no homosexual content.

"L" will stand for lesbian. This means that all of the sexual activity in the story takes place between women.

"B" will stand for bisexual. This indicates that the story has men having sex with women, but also has women having sex with women. Please note that this does not have to mean a threesome or orgy. Even if the story has a scene of straight sex at the beginning and a completely seperate scene of lesbian sex at the end, it should still be labeled with a B.

"H" will stand for homosexual. In this case, this will mean sexual activity between two men.

"A" will stand for animal. If the story includes a scene with someone having sex with an animal, it should get this label.

Please note that even if the sexual activity is confined to holding hands, cuddling, or a quick peck on the lips in your tale, it should be given the appropriate letter.

There may be others we will need eventually, but so far these are all that I've thought are necessary. Please give me a shout if you think we need others.

This has come up a couple of times now and so I'd like to clarify one of the rules.

I've said that no one under the age of sixteen should be involved in a sexual situation in a story. Let me just make clear that this does not just mean no sex with other people, but no solo fun either. If your character is fifteen or younger, they cannot even be depicted as masturbating.

Sorry for the confusion.
