A Hot Autumn Night

There has been some robust discussion in the forum about the differences between spanking stories and stories with spanking. I feel like my stories usually fall in the latter category, and wanted to attempt a more focused spanking story. I hope you’ll enjoy it.

I enjoyed it very well.

Allow me to copy parts of my comment on the story here as it seems relevant to the discussion:

Although to me this is both a spanking story and a story with a spanking, I think we might need a third category to really pin it done: For me this is first and foremost a story ABOUT spanking; i.e. a story about how it is to be a spanko and how the spanking fetish works. The most ambitious story of this kind is probably Theo Jones's long epos about Bridget Gallagher, but this is definitely a fine addition to the genre. I have tried it myself a few times, and I know it's not always easy to combine the treatise and the story aspects of what one wants to say.

I guess my definition of a spanking story has always been that the spanking drives the narrative and is the focal point to what's happening and why it's happening. A story with spanking has more of an independent plot, where consequences could feasibly be included, modified, or left out entirely without changing the focus or tone.

I really like Alef's suggestion, that a third category exists, one in which spanking is a focus, but encapsulated within the flow of a solid plot line. I think this allows for good prose, good character development, and an entertaining story line without shoehorning the obligatory smack smack smack into the mix.
