KZ-01 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 Hello, Digging through the archives, I found this old story which had the potential to be hot, but was bogged down by clumsy writing. I think that if the concept was worked on a little, it has great potential. http://original.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=23046 Now, I'm NOT saying you should plagiarize this. I'm just saying you should take the core concept of the fic, and make it into your own: a reimagining, if you will. Quote
KZ-01 Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Posted May 7, 2009 (edited) Anyone? Oh, and if I could make two requests.....1) Keep the pool scene, though the circumstances could be changed 2) Try and keep it one-on-one, threesome at most. Edited May 14, 2009 by KZ-01 Quote

And leave it, like, still the author's story?What is it that you like about the story, though? Maybe there's something else around you might enjoy. Quote

Constructive criticism would be cool if the author hadn't disappeared off the face of the earth. Ive sent him emails many times over the years. No reply. What did I like about it? Pretty much just the first part. Pool/sexy suits....beach blonde....younger guy/older girl.....minor......babysitter. Quote
JayDee Posted June 26, 2009 Report Posted June 26, 2009 Sorry, it's against the writer's creedo to try to make something out of someone else's work. Not only is it uncreative but it is a slap in the face to other authors. It is? Don't tell the guy who wrote Pride and Prejudice and Zombies! Quote
KZ-01 Posted July 2, 2009 Author Report Posted July 2, 2009 Thank you, Jaydee. And I stand by my post above. Quote
Keith Inc. Posted July 4, 2009 Report Posted July 4, 2009 But it just doesn't look like you're asking for fanfic of the story you found. Or a story inspired by events in it. The way the request is framed, it seems a little too close to plagiarizing. If you'd framed it as, i dunno, just a list of elements you want in an original story, without referring to someone else's effort, it might be more appealing. [/cent][/cent] Quote

A "reimagining" shouldn't be done without the original author's okay, since they invariably end up using major elements of the original story, which is a no-no without that author's permission. If the original author isn't able to be contacted (this person hasn't been active on the archive since 2005) then there's not much that can be done about that, unfortunately. But a story based on the idea of another story is okay, as long as it's just the idea. And a link to the story that inspired it would be a nice touch, as well. Quote

Okay, so....should I just post another request, this time asking for a story based on the idea of "Babysitter", essentially a request with your wording? Quote

Yeah. Something like: "Can i request a story about a boy being seduced by his babysitter, preferably including a swimming pool, her friends, an orgy with space aliens, Groucho Marx and a Corvette..."
