My latest work had been published on Literotica. The story was called 'Meeting Emily', and it was a 'Celebrity story' about a fictional encounter with Emily Windsor, the star of the 'Warrior' trilogy of films.
Emily was 25 at the time, 5'5" tall, honey-blonde hair; although in the film her hair was always tied back. Emily is very fit, as shown by the amount of stunt work she did on the film, but she still had a very feminine figure, quite busty with great legs. I found Emily very attractive, not just physically attractive, but also her good nature as she showed in many of the interviews she did for the film. I wrote the story on a whim after seeing the trailer to the second instalment, 'The Warrior Within'.
In the story I wrote, the protagonist 'Craig' was staying in the same hotel as Emily when she is on her promotional tour for the film. They bump into each other a couple of times in the hotel, get to talking and end up sleeping together. I tried to make the story not just a straight out 'shag-fest', but for the characters to get to know each other first.
I also tried to make the ending a little bitter sweet as both characters enjoyed their time together, but they knew it would never happen again. Their careers were not really compatible and the tyranny of distance made it impossible for them to continue the relationship.
It wasn't the story I had intended to write. I did it as a way to cure the dreaded 'writers block' on the story I was really working on. In the end I was quite happy with the story and it seemed to be well received on the website. I had a few positive comments and even a couple of emails that were complimentary about my work. The positive feedback (and even constructive negative feedback) helped with my confidence and I returned to my incomplete story with a renewed vigour.
About a week after the story had been published, I sat down at my computer after a hard day at work. I didn't feel like writing that night, so I checked Literotica for new stories and to see if there was more feedback on my current effort. After some time there I decided to quickly check my emails before signing off for the night.
Opening my emails I found the usual junk that accumulates in my inbox before spotting a feedback email for my story. I opened the email and read away.
'Hello 'Laser25',
I just wanted to send a quick note to say how much I enjoyed your story 'Meeting Emily'. I have read a few stories on this website and yours is the first to really captivate me.
I really liked how the characters got to know each other and interacted together before sleeping together. It appealed to the 'romantic' side of me that even a brief liaison can have a little chemistry and romance, but then again girls like a little romance don't we? ;).
Being a bit of a fan, I really liked how you portrayed Emily, so down to earth and friendly. It is almost like you know her. Do you know her?
Anyway now that I know your writing style I will read some more of your stories and look out for any new ones you write.
Thanks again
Newfangirl.
P.S BTW the sex scenes you wrote were really hot. Let's just say that I enjoyed them - A LOT. Xxx'
Wow. I had never had an appreciative email like that before. I was so happy that a woman had read my story and liked it.
I immediately wrote back.
'Hi Newfangirl,
Thank you for the compliments on my last story. I am always amazed when someone takes time out of their day to write to me about one of my stories. I am really glad you enjoyed it.
I am also pleased that a woman likes my stories. I always write from the male perspective (because that's the only perspective I know!!) and I am glad that my writings can connect with women who may read them.
In answer to your question, no I don't know Emily. I wrote about her as I find her attractive, not only physically, but also her attitude, her bubbly good nature and her wonderful talent as an actor. I only know her from her appearance in 'Arise the Warrior' and the interviews she did for the movie.
I always try to write my stories with a little romance, or at least with the characters having a real connection. I don't know about you, but I always want to have a connection with someone before going further. This must make me a bit of a romantic at heart huh?
This story was a bit of a fill in for me. I was, or actually am, writing another story and I got 'stuck'. I was struggling with it and wanted to clear my head. So I decided to write this story.
I don't know if you would be interested, but would you like to read my new story and let me know what you think of it so far. Please don't feel obligated as you are probably very busy, but if you would like to I can forward it to you to take a look at.
Thank you once again Newfangirl. I look forward to hearing back from you.
Matt (Laser25).
P.S I'm really glad you liked and enjoyed the sex scenes. :)'
I sent the email off and went about with the rest of my evening. Having a girl email about my stories got my mind racing, wondering what she was like. Of course in my thoughts she was a gorgeous woman, tall, blonde, really sexy. I hadn't had a lot of female attention recently and my mind raced with the possibilities.
My previous relationship had ended about 8 months ago. We had been together for a couple of years and as I was just about to turn 30, I was hoping this would be an everlasting relationship but I was having suspicions things weren't all right. I eventually I found that she was cheating on me with a mutual friend of ours. So here I was 30 and single. I wasn't really looking for anyone at the moment. I was concentrating on getting myself right and working at my career.
I work for a major sporting goods retail chain, assistant manager in one of the stores. The hours were long but I was paid reasonably well. I liked my job but it wasn't what I would call my dream job. I didn't really know what that job would be. My story writing was just my 'creative outlet' and I enjoyed the process of writing the story and perhaps writing the scenarios that I'd like to experience in my life.
************
The next morning I checked my emails before heading off to work. There was no response from 'Newfangirl' so I headed to work feeling a little down. Of course I realised that she may not have checked her emails yet, or might be on the other side of the world in a different time zone, but I still was a little bummed at not seeing a reply.
Work was really busy and I was occupied all day. I headed home and had all but forgotten about the email. When I got home I showered and had dinner before switching on the computer. I fired up my emails and I saw I had new mail. My heart raced as I opened up the inbox. There was a reply from Newfangirl.
'Hi Matt,
Thank you for getting back to me and for telling me your name. It is so great that you wrote back to me.
I have read a couple more of your stories and I loved them all. Your descriptions make me feel like I am there in the story. I become totally immersed in your tales and I really enjoy them. Not only are they erotic (sometimes just dead sexy) but you make me feel for the characters. That for me is good writing.
I just realised I haven't told you anything about myself. You might just think I am some crazy person. Well my name is Isabelle and I'm 25, from England. I presently have brown hair, although this changes sometimes, and am fit but a little curvy. Hello .
As to reading your next story Matt, of course I'd love to. Your writing is really good and I would love to read your next story. Please send it to me when you can as I can't wait to read it.
I have to go now as I have things to do. I'm already looking forward to your reply.
Isabelle xxx'
I read and re-read the email a few times. I couldn't get over how much Isabelle liked my work, and how nice she sounded. It felt like I was having a conversation with her and I was becoming more curious about her.
I quickly went to my current story and tidied it up a little. I saved the file to a new email and wrote again to Isabelle.
'Hi Isabelle,
Nice to meet you. Thanks again for being so enthusiastic about my stories.
I have attached my new story. It doesn't have a title yet, but please have a read and let me know what you think about it. It is to where I am a little bit stuck. I know how I want to finish it (the outlines are listed at the end) but I'm not sure how to get there. I don't mind constructive criticism so please tell me what areas you think may need changing or if things need to be added or taken away.
Thank you for telling me a little about you. You sound really nice BTW. I should probably do the same, in case you think I might be a weirdo or something. I'm Matt, 30 years old from just south of Sydney, Australia. I'm 5'9" tall, dark hair, blue eyes, fit, but not as fit as I could be ha ha ha. Writing is not my job, I work for a retail chain as Assistant Manager of one of their stores and at present I am single. Hello !
I hope you enjoy the new story. Please let me know what you think. Actually, I can't wait to know what you think.
Talk to you soon.
Matt xxx'
I hit the send button and heard the familiar swoosh sound as the email was sent. I couldn't believe that I told Isabelle that I was single. I immediately regretted it, but all I could do was shrug my shoulders and sigh. What will happen will happen.
The rest of the night was uneventful, and I checked my email before going to sleep, hoping Isabelle had replied. She hadn't. It took me a little while to get to sleep as my mind was thinking about her. Realising she was from England I came to the conclusion that there wouldn't be anything happening between us. It was nice to dream though.
The next morning I immediately checked my email, but there was no reply. My work day dragged as I was a bit on edge thinking about Isabelle and what she was going to say about my story. I could've checked my emails on my phone, but I resisted the temptation. I couldn't get home quick enough at the end of the day.
As soon as I walked in the door I went straight to my computer. There it was sitting in my inbox, a new email from Isabelle.
