Finished with Decadence In December

elfsYesterday, I finished the first draft of Decadence In December, and have started on Sodomy in September. I think Decadence is pretty much true to the original material and has a happy ending, but the others will be harder. I finished Orgy In August awhile back, but it definitely needs a re-write.
Yesterday, I also wrote about a thousand words into a very silly thing. I've been stuck for a long time with a couple of ideas: writing a Naked In School story and writing something called Barbies and Gargoyles. Yesterday my brain said, "Hey, why not combine them, add a twist, and go all SFnal on it?" And out came Barbies and Gargoyles Naked In School: A Tale from the Pendorverse. Ick.
Barbies and Gargoyles is a straightforward idea: in the future plastic surgery would be sufficiently safe, cheap, and commonplace that every high school kid would be getting some done. Eventually the population would split into two groups: the Barbies, the wealthiest of which would be tuned to radiate every major seconday sexual characteristic, and the Gargoyles, the Goths, who would shape themselves to be the opposite of Barbies, adopting monstrous visages, or characteristics that were vaguely unpleasant or sexually confusing.
Naked In School is a silly and somewhat boring "shared universe" series popular at the Alt Sex Stories Text Repository. The premise is that all major diseases have been conquered, including all of the sexual ones, and a popular wave of nudism and sexual license has gripped the nation. "The Program" is a plan to convince those high school kids who aren't quite "loose" enough to loosen up by requiring them to walk around school without clothes. It's a wierd skew on the pornoverse.
I believe in the MishMash Theory of Worldbuilding: You throw five things into a pot, stir vigorously, and then write a story that justifies having those five things in a pot. If you can make it gel, the story is worth the effort.
Oh, and for those of you (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shunra?) who understand the premise of the Decadence in December, how does this title grab you: Bailey High: Succubi Don't Film After-School Specials. Hmm? It's really too bad that the characters in that series are so cardboard as to be unworthy of parody.
