Okay, so the point of this post is that I'm basically going to try taking some suggestions for material. If you are interested, please read the rest of this post before pitching in ideas.
So, a story concept for the Sex Mage World that I have had for a few years now has been the idea of a Winesburg, Ohio-style mosaic story of showing a long chain of various cock-teasing events throughout a particularly horny day in a single town. What this essentially boils down to is a sort of "cock-tease telephone game", where every chapter is a self-contained, Just A Little Scene-esque flash fic, but with the gimmick that a side character in one Scene will be the main focus of the next Scene, or the events of one Scene will be sensed by characters elsewhere in town and inspire them to get up to their own mischief.
For example: Two teen girls are driving down the main street and sense some particularly horny boys in a passing van. They cast some tease spells as they laugh about how silly boys are, edging the boys right in front of their mother, whose driving the car! The next scene follows the flustered mother as she tries to resist the good vibes coming from her horny boys cocks (and maybe discreetly slips them a few spells anyway), and when she gets home, she takes out her horny mischief on her blue-balled neighbor. The next scene follows the blue-balled neighbor trying desperately to not ejaculate all over his sister's clothes; he's supposed to do the laundry as part of a deal he made with her, and he has to get it done before she gets home, but how can he while some mysterious cock-teaser teases his cock! And this ends up leading to some other thing, and that leads to another, etc.
I don't have any particularly deep narrative through line like Winesburg, but there may be a couple characters who frequently pop up across several of the stories, wherein following their sub-plot would be the closest thing to a "main plot". But I get ahead of myself.
Now, while I like this idea, the problem here is that in order to do it, I must come up with something like thirty to forty Just A Little Scenes all in a row, in a short time. However, Just A Little Scenes have always come to me on completely random whim, it takes years to build up enough scenes to justify a full collection of them, and this would be the first time I've made an attempt to Martian Chronicles a bunch together into a coherent sequence. And as I've made known, since the end of 2019, I've been in the erotic inspiration gutter, so I've only managed to come up with maybe two or three interesting half-scenes to include in this collection since conceiving of the idea. I am running on vapors and pulling teeth trying to come up with more.
I have also made it known that I am notoriously incapable of taking suggestions or doing commissions. But, as my weary, jaded ass refuses to get younger, I'm getting at the end of my rope. This is basically one of my two only plans left for an SMW project, and I can't seem to muster the mojo to come up with anything beyond the five hundredth rote "Sex Mage laughs as she Tease Spells her poor neighbor's boner" scenario. Which is probably what half the book is going to be anyway, and that's fine, but I'm having trouble coming up with engaging versions of that template.
So, as an experiment, I am opening the floor to suggestions on this one, to see if I can wring some blood from this stone. I do, however, have some caveats:
1) I intend to sell this as an e-book exclusive. This was always the plan, but now, part of the point of this exercise is to see if I'm at all capable of cold-writing material for compensation. Depending on how this goes and how I feel about things afterwards, I may find myself more capable of doing commissions than I thought. Or I might hate it and be assured to never try this again. We'll see.
2) Please suggest something that will fit within the framework detailed above. Do not just ask me to write some other story, or give me an outline for your own entire version of the book. I mainly just need some basic scenarios from which to build some simple scenes, and I'll see how I can duck tape them together.
3) There is no guarantee I will use your suggestion. Some stuff I just do not want to write about. But we'll see what comes up.
4) This could take awhile, between how long it takes to get enough suggestions I feel are workable, and just finding the time/energy to do the work. If it ends up being a bust, I'll let you know by the end of the year.
5) If you end up having a ton of ideas of your own, I would ask you to limit your suggestions to only five scene ideas for now, just to allow more people the chance to get their thoughts in.
And I guess that's about it. If you have a Little Scene idea that would fit into the theme of a "horny day in the life of a random Sex Mage town", please consider leaving a suggestion in the comments! I guess I'll leave this open for a month to see what builds up, but if I end up starting work on this over the summer, I may keep taking ideas if I get later entries and need to fill more chapters.
