A few alterations I'm making for the 'contests'

So, first off, they're no longer going to be called "Contests." They are 'creative writing assignments' ( not real assignments, as in something you need to do, just something to go with the whole "Anko's Classroom" theme XD).

And rather than giving out a prize to a winner, I'll give out prizes to creative writings that I'm particularly impressed with; on top of offering a free fanfic commission, I'll also showcase the writing in an upcoming entry.

Additionally, while you're free to post your 'assignment' on DA, or FF, or Tumblr, or whatever, all writings are to be submitted to my new E-mail: Ankosclassroom@yahoo.com

Lastly, while I may occasionally post future 'creative writing assignments' with only single images displayed, I will be including from 3 to 5 images, all with a similar theme so that you're never without something to work with, assuming you know the series and/or characters well enough.

I won't be posting a new assignment just yet; for now, the current image will be accompanied by two more I've scrounged up (And again, all images belong to their respectful artists, not me!)

The current writing assignment choices are as follows:

Now, the only limit is your own imagination!

You're free to choose from any of the 5 images shown, and write a oneshot fic based around it (Hell, you're free to work with several, or even all of them, if you're really feeling creative enough!). As long as you don't divert too much from the theme the image(s) provided focus on, and write at least 3000 words, and use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation, you're free to write whatever you please!

Also, check the previous post for an important call to arms of all OCs willing to participate in the SEquel! You won't want to miss it ^^ Have fun!

Just a general update, as well as a few questions from my readers

So to start off... I'm actually fairly pleased with how the reception of Kushina's Wife Test has turned around so far :) Anyone who's stuck around has started to understand what I'm aiming for, and I'm starting to be more willing to work on it now. As a matter of fact (Among some other works of mine), I'm even knee-deep in the third chapter right now!

However, there is a certain FF user by the name of God-ShadowEx100 who made me sick with his evaluation of my work. And I quote:

"This garbage has been reported for adult content and the fact hinata is a useless whore. This story will be reported until your bitch ass is banned and your story removed from this site."

-God-ShadowEx100's review of KWT ch1

What a dick -___- However, I would advise against anyone who might be reading this from spamming or attacking him for such behavior. As much as I can admit that he would deserve such hatred for attacking not just me, but also many, many other works, it's pathetic to attack someone for such actions, as you're just doing exactly what he's been doing, and that's incredibly pathetic and foolish. 

And I'm not telling you about this guy so that you can attack him; I'm telling you because he's flatout stated that he seeks to have my story taken down, and if it is, it's probably because of this dude. Will I get banned like he wants? Doubtful, and straight-up improbable, but I have seen FF take down some works simply because they were reported by petty assholes like this one, so I just want you all to be aware of what may or may not happen.

Again, do NOT spam him, or even show him any regard. He's just a pathetic hater who seems to put pathetic amounts of time into trying to take down works of fanfiction. As much of a dick as he may be, he is NOT worth the time or effort, and you're only giving him attention he doesn't deserve by bearing your fangs at him.

But hey! Responding to one hater is hardly the reason that I'm posting this update! So let's get into that, shall we? But first, here's a random sexy image to break up all the boring text! =P

Anyway....

First of all, I want to ask a few questions that I would very much like answers to in regards to the fanfiction contest mentioned in the two previous updates (If you don't know what I'm talking about, just check out the update before this one, or the one before that).

-First, I've heard some comments of discomfort with the image that I presented to base the contest entries around (again, check out the previous update, you'll see what I mean), and looking through their eyes, I can't say I blame those people too much; it depicts Hinata, a character that many love, being chained to a post with two insertions in both of her... lower areas. Yeah, sexy though it is, it's kinda hard not to think of dark thoughts when trying to write something about an image like that. In addition, it may possibly be going a little overboard on my part when this is the first contest on this blog, so... that brings me to my big question.

Should a different image with more comfortable subject matter be used in place of the current one? 

-My second question is in regards to the contest premise as a whole. Is there anyone who's legitimately interested in taking part in any of these contest? Is there something about this that you're unsure of? Is there something about the contest rules or concept that you think needs being changed? Please, share your thoughts! I honestly don't know if anyone's reading what I'm writing, nor do I feel like any of my work, especially in the blog, is being noticed by enough people, beyond simply my regular correspondents.

Lastly, I would like to make a note that I do wish that more people express an interest in these contests. Not just because I like the idea of it, but because I have a genuine interest in seeing first hand the creativity of my reviewers. It pleases me that there are people out there who appreciate my work and the time and effort I put into it, and I'm deeply interested in seeing their own sense of creativity. I may call it a 'contest' all the time, but really, I just want everyone to have a fun time writing! 

This is all meant to be in good fun, not a competition, and just the idea of how many possibilities for stories can come out of one depiction honestly excites me! So to see so few responses showing interest in this story writing concept is really disappointing :/ Well, anyways, moving onto our last item on the agenda....

Literature contest reminder, and a bone I have to pick with some people about Kushina's Wife Test

Okay, so let's start things off on a more fun topic; A while back, I've had the idea of holding a literary contest on this blog for anyone interested in participating.

For those of you who missed it, the rules are quite simple; I provide you with an image, and your objective is to write a oneshot/short story fic that in someway connects to the picture provided. I only ask that you use proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation throughout, that you write a minimum of 3000 words, and refrain from any sort of fetishes that detract too much from the image of focus (vore, expansion, foot, etc).

And here is the image in question that your fics should be centered around:

(Disclaimer: Image belongs to Slave Toon. I claim no ownership of this image in any way!)

 So... yeah! I hope this image gives you the inspiration to come up with something awesome! ^____^ Oh, and you're free to write and post your entry wherever you please, just as long as you provide a link to your finished work. And to make things interesting, if you're familiar with my story "Sex Education: Anko Mitarashi Style," aka "SE:AMS", you're free to set your entry in the realm of this story's timeline, just as long as you credit SE:AMS to me.

Whoever wins this contest gets a free oneshot fanfic commission from me, and it WON'T take over a year to complete! :P

Anyway, if this contest interests you, I do require a minimum of 5 participants, so spread the word to as many people as you can!

Current state of "Kushina's Wife Test", and Possible Contest idea

So, it's been a while since I've done one of these, so I figure I should bring people up to speed on what's been going on with me these past few days, and the current state of affairs with my writings.

First of all, while I wanted to have the second chapter to my latest work, "Kushina's Wife Test", completed as soon as possible, it will be a while before I can even begin working on it again; You see, a few days ago, my computer was taken to the shop to be fixed and upgraded, and at best, I'll have it back within about a week. This essentially means that I'm currently without an effective means of making ANY of my writings. And that sucks! I've been getting by using my phone, and at nights, borrowing another computer, the latter of which is the reason I've been able to bring you this news.

So, unfortunately, to anyone waiting for the next chapter, I'm afraid your in for a little bit of a wait :/ And to anyone who hates this story because of incest, and/or "cheating", I have a few words to you regarding how mistaken you and your thoughts on my work are!



Ah, but that's a rant for another day! Today, I have some more pleasant news.

I've had an idea for a small contest of sorts that this blog can hold every now and then! And anyone who can read this is eligible! =P

The rules are simple: I present an image to you, and your goal is to write a one-shot that in some way involves that image.  While this first contest is more of a test than anything, to see if these contests are something worth pursuing, or even holding, I do ask that as many people give their feedback as possible, and give me any questions that they have regarding this idea.

There are only a few guidelines to these contests that apply:

1) As noted, the one-shot MUST in some way involve the picture presented. If I can't find any likeness to the picture in your writings, it will be disqualified.

2) Use proper spelling, grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. I can forgive minor typos, but I won't accept any work that doesn't acknowledge the structure of the English language.

3) All entries should contain a minimum of 3000, and maximum of 9000 words (I can excuse it if you're a tiny bit over the max). Just a guideline so that I don't get any entries that are either too big or too small.

4) I would appreciate that some fetishes like vore, inflation, weight gain, foot, and other such kinks be excluded. I realize these fetishes are popular among some gatherings, but this isn't such a gathering, and as such, I would appreciate that such things be avoided.

5) You're free to have as mature of content as you want (these are some mature pics I'll be using, after all =P), so have fun!

Other than these rules, you're free to write whatever you want for these contests!

A minimum of 5 entries will be necessary for each of these contests, and the winner gets a free oneshot fanfic commission from me. And hopefully this one WON'T take over a year to fulfill =P (Seriously, though, I will try to the best of my power to have it finished at an acceptable time).

You're free to write and post your story on any site or by any means necessary, but no matter the site, be sure to post a link to your story in the comments below. Otherwise, I might never know of your entry's existence. 

Now that the rules have been established, the first contest can begin! Here is the picture that your story should be based upon:

 

 (Note: I do NOT own this image! This image was created and owned by SlaveToons and Palcomix)

Now that I've provided the basis for your contest entries, the rest is up to you! ^^ I look forward to seeing what you can show me!

If you have any questions or comments, please don't hesitate to ask! I will gladly answer any inquiries you may have, either regarding the current contest, or the concept of these contests as a whole.

Oh, and one last thing, just because there's probably at least one or two people (In other words, everyone who ever sees my blog! :P) who might be wondering; Yes, I will allow you to make your entry set in the realm of SE:AMS, just as long as you credit me for doing so.

Cancellation of Anko Mitarashi LD, and new fic Announcement. By, The Digger

Hello again, my students of smut! So today, I've got some good news, and some bad news.

Let's start with bad news: Odds are, you've probably seen a new story put up on my FF called "Anko Mitarashi: LD." Well, I hate to say it, but it's been cancelled... for now, at least. Why, you ask? A few reasons, really:

1) I've gotten little to no useful feedback at all regarding this story, which was key to its continuation. I kindly asked my readers for helpful input on what they thought of the pilot/prototype chapter I had made, yet the majority of reviews I was given barely contained any helpful feedback at all; something that I find bothersome in more ways than one, and I'm not trying to say that I'm mad at any of you who read and reviewed, just... disappointed.

-First of all, as someone aspiring to be a professional writer (I'm NOT kidding about that), reader feedback is essential to me; I don't just need to know that I did a good job, but I also need to know how. So, while I'm somewhat pleased that at least 17 people were satisfied with what they read, I'm bothered by how little most of these people actually had to say, beyond simply liking it, or thinking that 'it was good.' My readers are important to me because their eyes and minds can see things that mine, as a writer, cannot, and if my writing is ever to improve, if I ever want any hope of being a professional, then I need my readers to lend me their minds, and have them convey to me what I did wrong, what I did right, and give me detailed information that can help me along my way.

-Second of all, I know that there are a lot of people who read my works, and who follow me, so they know when I make a new story, and if I can't get your feedback, then frankly, I don't know what to tell you! On top of helping me advance in my writings as reviews do, as aforementioned, they also give me motivation. No reviews, no motivation, no story.

2) Honestly, I don't really know how to begin with this story beyond the pilot :/ Yeah, I have tiny ideas for things to happen in chapters, but not really enough to make it a full-blown, successful series. And I can already hear all the fans demanding a NaruHina chapter, and YES, I was planning on making one! But you can't just start off big like that; you gotta work your way into it. And that's really the big reason this never made it past a pilot; no way to work up to the big stuff.

3) Little motivation. I mentioned this before, but it needs being reiterated; Motivation is pretty wholly the reason that anyone continues any series, and I just don't have it right now.


And this is all really a shame too, because I was looking to make this a written version of Sage Deo (If you don't know what that is, A) where have you been this whole time?! and B) Go check out MattWilson83's Deviant Art/Blogspot, you'll see what I was trying to go for). However, if it's of any consolation to those who were interested in seeing Anko LD continue, just keep this in mind; I may have given up on it for now, but that doesn't mean I have any interest in simply scrapping it permanently. More than likely, when I find the drive to write it again, and have the initiative to turn it into something really good, I'll come back to it. Til then, it's probably going to be taken down off my FF. But anyway, onto the good news!


Good news is, I'm in the stages of setting up a new continuation to Sex Education: Anko Mitarashi Style. No, no, no, it's not THE sequel, just A sequel.

It's really more of a spin-off than anything, following the fun little exploits of Nikia Zaraki and her squad (All of whom are lesbians, I might remind you! :D). Like Anko LD was intended to be, it'll be an episodic series, each one focusing on each member of Team 3, and will be worked on and updated more casually than the upcoming SEquel (Yes, we're calling it that from now on! =P), though will of course not skimp on any of the reasons you love these four girls ^^.

This story will be titled "Guide to the Kunoichi. By, Nikia." Each chapter will open and possibly end with a brief narration by the squad member of focus for that chapter, each one being a contribution to a book that Nikia and her squad are writing bit by bit on their experiences in the life of the lesbian Kunoichi.

Does this mean that none of the members of Team 3 will be in on Anko's Erojutsu classes in the actual SEquel? Well... sort of. I'm considering the possibility of having just Nodoka attend Anko's classes, though mostly just for the sake of cohesiveness; to connect Guide to the Kunoichi and the SEquel (Name still in progress, just like the rest of the story).

However, this brings me to the most essential issue that I'm currently having with Guide to the Kunoichi: I don't know where to begin. And that's where you, the readers, come in!

I have a story idea for each member of Squad 3, and each one could potentially be used to kick off the series, but I need your feedback to know which one you want to see first. And here are the contenders:

-The Village Festival, By Nikia

Nikia returns to the village outside of the Land of Fire where she grew up, and taking her squad with her, to attend an important yearly festival of their culture. There, the local girls take a real loving for the four Kunoichi, meaning all four are in for the night of their loves!

-Erotic Wrestling, By Tsuki

During her younger years, Nikia was a famed member of the world of Erotic Wrestling, and that toughy Tsuki wants in on the action! So, her sensei decides to let her in on the fun, giving Tsuki plenty of T&A, both to love, and to kick!

-Adult Cinema, By Emi

For the longest time before becoming a Genin, Emi had been looked down upon because of her orientation, so only now as Nikia's pupil has she been been opened up to the positives of female sexuality. However, the more she found herself enjoying the sexual arts, the more she finds herself wanting to contribute to them. And that's when she asks Nikia if she can help her become... a porn star??!

-Finding Courage, By Nodoka

Nodoka's performance in Team 3 has been shaky, to say the least. She's insecure, timid, and communicates little with her teammates, often shying away from any need for conversation. So, she does something a little bold that none of her squad members expected from finger-fidgeting Nodoka; take on learning Erojutsu! As much as she'd rather not, Nodoka willingly joined up with Anko Mitarashi's sex ed class, in hopes of becoming a little bit less modest and a bit more open about herself, both with others, and with her team.

-The Breast of Friends, By Team 3

After learning how... open their sensei was about sexuality, among other things, the girls of Team 3 couldn't help but indulge in copious amounts of sexual activities with each other. However, arguments and problems sprang up between them, and so Nikia saw fit to make a nightly schedule for her squad, so that everyone gets their satisfaction, and in hopes that she can make her girls learn to be the 'breast' of friends.



So! Now that all the potential story pilots are in play, it's now your job to vote for which one you would like to see kick off Team 3's adventures! Until then...

What to do about "Nudist?"

So.... I think it's an understatement to say that it's been a while since I've last updated "Nudist?", my first ever Lemon story, and... well, there's a good reason for that.

I'm sure most of you are aware that I've had other projects that I've been working on, particularly SE:AMS, which I personally consider my Magnum Opus, as many other people probably do as well. And trust me, just because you haven't heard from me for a while about that sequel doesn't mean it's not coming. It is, but there are things that hold me back from making it truly happen, and "Nudist?"'s fate is one of those things.

While I've had a lot of fun and heart put into the creation of this adopted series, looking back over it, I rather feel like it's... well, there's no nice way to say it... it's a damn a mess :/ So many conflicting elements, brought about between literary whims, changes of heart, changes of writing style, etc, etc, etc. And while I have many elements in mind for making this series' final chapter, I just can't get myself into the state of mind to give it life, as much as I really hate to say it.

So I want to know your thoughts! What should be done with "Nudist?"? Should it go the way of Legacy of the Legend, and discontinue it, letting it sit on the metaphorical shelves of my profile for sentimental remembrance?

Should I try to reclaim the clarity that brought me my previous inspiration?

Or should I hand the series over to someone who already has the inspiration to breath life back into the series again? (Hey, the last option sounds tempting! I did adopt this series from another author, after all. It might be fitting to pass it down the line to another aspiring writer *shrug*)

I'm honestly lost as to what to do about this series at this point :/ After all, it's been close to a year since last I've updated it, and I'm not much closer to making that final chapter than I was then. And to be perfectly blunt, I doubt that I could honestly surprise or impress anyone who reads "Nudist?", no matter what I do.

But there might be an alternative, and this is just something flying off the top of my head; reboot. As much as I hate starting series over, if I do, this might very well give a new life of sorts to the series.

I hate to see "Nudist?" go after all the adopted gem has done both for me and you, but if it really must, then I accept its fate. I don't want to keep pumping pointless life into a series that I either have no inspiration for, or can't give the kind of liveliness that made it popular to begin with. If new life should be breathed into it, that's not my decision to make; that's the decision of those who helped make the series what it is.

But anyway, those are the options that I see: Discontinuation, Hibernation Adoption, or Reimagination. Please, let your thoughts be known.

Please, let me know your thoughts on this matter! And if you have any other ideas, don't be afraid to shout them out! I'd be glad to hear them :)
