As usual, I'm dismayed at how mild the examples are. This is a pretty soft market, pun fully intended. I've got nothing they'll want. Hell, to me the examples aren't even erotic.

Maryn, more edgy than you'd think (woo-hoo, am I cool yet?)

I thought the same thing, and then I looked some more, and it seems that this is more of a lottery than a writing competition. Sort of like a radio station that has listeners send in a paragraph on some topic, and then they draw the winning paragraph out of a hat.

Note that the winner is determined, not on literary merit, but on votes:

Yes you should tell every friend, mother, brother, sister and people on the street to vote for your story, but only one vote per person please.

Great, a popularity contest that settles once and for all who's got the most online buddies.

Not for me.

Good luck to all who think they'll give it a go, though, and thanks to Gillhoughly for passing the info on to us erotica writers sweating and writhing in the trenches.

Maryn, who thinks she just invented a new dance

Amen. IMHO, Maryn's just telling it like it is. This deal sounds like some Gather.com concoction.
