I'll start the topic with "Sea King" by colt45.
This story contains MF, Mf, Ff, and incest. The story is semi-fantasy
themed, but is more of a stylized version a setting that is plausible
(no magic or elves). It falls into the category "loving masters". In
other words, it contains slavery with any of the violence normally
associated with such stories. In this case there is some very (VERY)
light bondage-themed sex. (Actually, in this particular story there is
almost B/D or S/M, but what I said holds true for the majority of the
genre.)
In fact, colt45 is one of my favorite authors and is currently active
and is between releases at the moment.
How about you guys?
I thought it would be neat for us to share a few suggestions for "must
read" stories.
I'll start the topic with "Sea King" by colt45.
" 1 a archaic : at once b : without undue delay : before long
2 : at the present time : now
usage Both senses 1b and 2 are flourishing in current English, but
many commentators have objected to sense 2. Since this sense has been
in continuous use since the 15th century, it is not clear why it is
objectionable. Perhaps a note in the Oxford English Dictionary (1909)
that the sense has been obsolete since the 17th century in literary
English is to blame, but the note goes on to observe that the sense is
in regular use in most English dialects."

Secondly, I don't understand why people make claims about the "common"
vs "proper" uses of words. Languages are malleable and ever-shifting
things, and words only have the meanings that we give to them. Thats
how things move from slang to being accepted as being "real" words.
(Also, Rawr! You cant post in this thread without making at least one
suggestion. So make with the recommendation, stinky head.)

I recommend the Florida Friends series by Dual Writer and
http://storiesonline.net/library/show_series.php?id=734
all the stories by Wes Boyd, especially Snowplow Extra - a brilliant
story, and
http://storiesonline.net/auth/Wes_Boyd
http://storiesonline.net/story/53053
the Wynter Universe stories, and
http://storiesonline.net/library/author.php?id=1808&type=uni
JRyters Murphy series is good too.
http://storiesonline.net/story/59815:91161;1
Add in Douglas Fox's Paradise Series
http://storiesonline.net/library/show_series.php?id=183
and it wouldn't be complete without Bingain's stories about Max Khimin
http://storiesonline.net/story/52067
http://storiesonline.net/story/60269:99520;1
and, of course, my own Rough Diamond

Good Day,
I must agree with Florida Friends! (It is ruff to wait till Saturday now, it was bad enough when it came out 3 times a week.)
Then is Unique Adventures by Dark Dreams!
I follow a couple of others, one has been posting here for better than 6 years, and is still going.
Another one is Bowling for Hearts by Rare Dream
Have a Good DAY!
Tom

"Retreat" by Orestes because I think it tastes so freakin' good in my
brain.
I'm quite sure the writing is not especially excellent, but I do love
his use of language. I like his ideas, his sense of humor, and the
very perverse ending. I think what he's trying to say is that we're in
hell.
He reminds me of me, except different, and this is my third favorite
story of his.

I haven't read all of Lubrican's stories, but the "Making of a Gigolo" series was really good.

I use the scoring both as an author but even more so as a reader. As a
reader, I take the assumption that if a lot of people (votes) like a
story then I MAY like it; if a lot don't like it then there is a good
chance that I may find the same faults and I don't generally read
those stories.
But the votes are rather immaterial. Someone stating, "Hey, I like
that one." carries much more weight to me; especially if they say why
they like it.
However, I don't vote. Don't know why I don't when it is just a click
away. What I do though is send the author in question an email stating
whether I liked it or not and if there was anything that didn't vibe
right with me. But, I only do this for stories that I complete because
that is where SOL has the block to send the author a line. I have done
this for some bad stories I have read as well but generally I won't
finish the bad ones. The ones that I have found I don't email to the
authors is the "meh" ones. They weren't necessarily bad, and maybe I
was hoping they got better before they ended so I finished them; but I
don't seem to respond to the author if their tale didn't ressonate
with me.
As for Spacer X's STAD, I refer to this yarn as an adolescent males
ultimate dream; especially since it has the pictures of all of
bodacious characters to compare with the story. Yes, the story is SLOW
and especially repetitive (almost painfully so) but after reading how
a character acted like a slut and then felt guilty about it and tried
to go back to their puritan ways only to repeat the cycle again and
again strikes me as absurd but also of females (and males) I have
known in the past who seemed to follow a similar trait.
But that isn't the only thing that is repetitive in STAD; the sex (no
correction not the sex but the write up Spacer X does prior to the sex
happening) go on ad-nauseum. STAD is definitely one story where I have
skipped the sex parts. (Strangely enough, Nick Scipio's Summer Camp is
another one where I can remember skipping the sex scenes; however one
thing both of this stories have in common with me is that I have read
them at least twice; not many porn stories on the internet do I read
more than once; prior to the internet when I mainly had to make do
with Variations and its ilk than yeah there was stories I read
numerous of times).
