I know the obvious answer here is a spanking. Yet, there are spanking stories online that are still on my list of favorites years later. I started to wonder if there are any common ingredients that make up a terrific spanking story, one you go back to read again and again. Here are a few of my ideas.
- Characters : My favorite stories have characters I can care about. I also love when an author either revisits her characters from another story, or has them as secondary characters in a new story. It’s like meeting old friends.
- Plot: The stronger the plot, the better the story. I’m all for a short and to the point story, but a great spanking story has intrigue and pulls you from chapter to chapter.
- Spanking: Yes this should probably be first. The spanking scene needs to be well written, not just a bunch of “SPANK!” and “OWW!”‘s. It helps to know what a spanking really feels like, but it’s not always necessary. A good author can paint the scene and connect you with her fantasies too.
- Uniqueness: Again, this isn’t mandatory, but it adds to a memorable spanking story. Is the setting unique? Is the plot unusual? Are the characters not your typical spanking couple?
Those are just a few of my thoughts, and things I will consider when reviewing a spanking story. I’d love to hear what you think. What makes a great spanking story on your keeper list?
Hi, I’ve just found you, I have been writing spanking stories for about six months, posting them on Spanking Classics.
My views are similar to yours, except in one particular; although the spanking is an important part, I feel it is not so essential to actually see it, as the scene setting, anticipation and preparation are crucial to the reader being able to experience the spanking vicariously as it were.
Another element which may be used to good effect is the use of the bizarre or unexplained, particularly where vanilla protagonists are involved. These may be hallucination, ghosts, time travel or such things. It’s good fun to put your characters in a confused state and then give them a spanking.
It is as you say important to have characters about whom the reader can identify, likes probably, and when the characters have appeared in a previous story the reader is already halfway to identification with them.
