Had an idea for a site collab project that I thought I'd put out there and see if anyone likes the sound of it. It's for a magazine written by our authors in the style of one of those women's mags. It would have a main atricle- an interview with a celeb, written by one author, and a number of smaller articles written by others. I'm thinking things like Best Threesome Positions by an author trying out various sexual positions with two celebs. Maybe some how-to's 'written' by a celeb (though this is stepping on Slyguy's toes a bit, I realise). Perhaps a celebrity confessions section at the end, where our authors write a short first person sex story on behalf of a celeb, with a less than cryptic name given at the end (Taylor S, S Gomez, etc). It would probably require someone proficient in Photoshop or something similar or the entire thing is a no go, but if anyone is interested let me know and I'll try and put a team together!
-
I really like this idea. I'd be interested in writing one of these for sure.
-
I love this idea. Sign me up!
-
I'd like to be in on this, also.
-
I was apart of something similar for a wrestling e-fed years ago. Count me in for an article :Y:
-
I'd love to be part of that. Interviews with lesser known celebs (like the ones I've written about), I could handle. The celebrity confessions is especially a fantastic idea (if it's C.G Moretz or E. Olsen, please let me write those ones, plus interview with Elizabeth Olsen, I could handle that too, since I'm working on part 6 to first groupie which involves a Jimmy Kimmel live appearance).
-
OK, so I think we’ve got out team together for this (though if anyone else wants to join they’re more than welcome, of course). Any got any Photoshop skills? Mine are rudimentary at best.
Another idea I’ve had is for an agony aunt section where regular women write in to a celeb for advice on sex, relationships etc. Also, I thought it might be fun to have some articles tie in with some stories from the site. So I could do a sextoy review sponsored by Christina Hendricks’ Toy Stories, and Slyguy could do a how to in association with Sex-Ed for Dummies (if he wants to of course). If anyone else has any ideas then feel free to share!

I worked in newspapers many years ago. It was the first job I had out of high school, so I know a good bit about a layout and spread for a magazine of newspaper.
I would like to be involved and Money has wanted to as well. I would also like a variety and balance of women here, so it's not just the same ones over and over. If you ever read the old Nuts glamour model magazines from back in the day, those offer a good example of funny ssexual questions for interviews.

Awesome! If you'd like to take care of the layout etc, that would be great!
Re the celebs; absolutely! I'd like it to be as varied as possible and authors are welcome to write about any celebs they wish.
-
I can handle the layout, but I am going to require a template for it. It has to be done in Photoshop, or back when I worked in the office, we used the extension program Image Ready. If there are pre-existing templates, it can make the job easier. Otherwise, I'll have to create one. I'm going to need dimensions for the magazine too.
I used to read Nuts magazines back in the day when the British glamour scene was at it's height and they always had funny sexual related questions for the girls. Lucy Pinder's answers were always hilarious. There's a lot of people here who were fans of those glamour babes, so I am sure they know what I mean when I bring it up. Those magazines would be a good source of inspiration.
A variety of celebs would be nice. So far going by the voting on the top 100, people are pretty balanced with their picks. I would hate for this to become centered entirely around Disney/Nick girls cause there's a lot people on this site who aren't into them, so a variety of women will definitely help.
-
Awesome. Yeah, we can figure out the specifics of the layout etc at the end, once the articles have been written.
Yep, as a teenager in England during the early-2000s, I'm more than familiar with the work of Nuts, Zoo, FHM and the like! And yeah, those mags would definitely be an influence on this project.
Couldn't agree more. Variety, as they say, is the spice of life!

If you google "fake magazine porn celebrities" you find a lot of instances of people doing the same, but I guess most of them are only covers and no content.
The one I know best is Fitta Magazine, there are actually interviews in it, celebrities (Emma Watson, Elle Fanning...) who somehow are porn actresses.
I can't post it here so I let you look it up.
It's a nice idea though, count me in. I don't know any Photoshop.
-
Lucky for you fellas, I have experience in Photoshop, as well as Image Ready which is how we set up the layout at a small paper I worked in years ago.
I've seen those same fake magazines online. Back in the 2000s, there were some even printed with fake photos in them in Europe. I used to have scans of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera fakes out of one that a fan had come across.
Looking forward to being able to help with this project. I want to be able to put the CSS logo on the front cover, and maybe even 'the official magazine' under the font.
I will need some page and cover dimensions before I can get to work. Also, time is a factor. I stay very busy these days, so patience will be appreciated.

You got us to help with the content. As the old saying goes, many hands make light work. I'm ready to start this project, I think it'd be a fantastic way to promote this site. I can handle celebrity confessions (I'm good at getting people to open up anyway). I think celebrity interviews could be handled by various people so we get more of them.

Very much like the idea of the logo and the official magazine, unless we want to give it a more ‘magazine-y’ title. I don’t mind either way.
As far as time goes, there’s no rush, take as long as you need. And as Justin says, you’ve got us to help.

I was actually thinking that there’d only be one interview, with the celeb on the cover. Though we could do some shorter ones to go along with it if we run of article ideas. For the confessions and the agony aunt section, I was thinking that would be collaborative, with each writer contributing as many as they want.

That's what I'm thinking. I would like to see lesser known celebs get some of the main interviews (like the ones I've written about), so people can become more familiar with them. The more celebs we add here, the more the site grows. But yeah, I'm excited to get this magazine project started. Maybe do it monthly, like what you'd get with a subscription to a regular one
-
I think monthly is too much. Maybe quarterly if the first goes well and everyone is up for continuing it.

I know I'd be up for continuing it. But yeah, quarterly at first, see how it goes and go from there

Instead of having parody interviews with celebs, why not interview the authors and let them write articles and columns about writing and celeb stuff? Then the celebs could be used as pieces with the authors, since many celebs really represent the authors who write them mostly.
This site is all about what some dub on here as 'celebrity erotic fiction'. A magazine could even have the potential to make readers become authors themselves. Maybe even a section that is meant to encourage new writers and offer them tips. There could even be columns where readers submit questions to be answered. Another column idea could be authors recommending stories from other authors that they enjoy.
There's all kinds of neat stuff that could be done with a magazine. I think more so than spoofing celeb interviews. The spoof thing I believe works better as a series, maybe even a full site participant series like Brevity with Q&A type stuff.

That would probably be 10 times easier. You'll have to elaborate on that more but I like the idea

There's all kinds of neat stuff that could be done if the magazine centered around the site's content and the authors, as well as giving readers the opportunity to interact. After all, readers are going to be the ones reading it. I think it would be more fun giving us something to interact with, rather than reading spoof/parody interviews of celebs talking dirty. That idea I think works better as a story or series, no offense to anyone if you think my idea is garbage.
Maybe something like a 'new releases' section that documents all the latest stories from the previous month (if we are doing a 12 month issue). All the new stories of the past month listed, and I think there should be a special bolding for the 'hot' stories, which would be the latest stories that all racked up the most views. In this site's case, it would be over a thousand or so views in the span of a month.
A 'new authors' section would be ideal too.
The pinup of the month could have a whole spread section in the magazine with classic pics and detailed rundowns of stories that they're featured in. Maybe even several pages with full blown pics and then columns or blurbs highlighting stories they're in (maybe use the ones with the most views as a way to measure this).
Authors could come up with ideas for columns and sections. There's some on here who do like to discuss with their fans/readers and are encouraging towards new authors. Cade and John both come to mind, I believe they would do a superb job with something like that to help new authors and inspire readers into trying their hand at writing. Cade should probably have an entire column doing Q&A stuff for writers looking for help.
Someone else on here has been writing reviews for stories. It would be cool if more people did that. Maybe have an entire section for reviews and offer non-authors the chance to review a story.

I get where you’re coming from Viri, but most of the things you’ve mentioned (author interviews, story reviews) already have sections on the site. It does seem that in doing the magazine in that way, we’d simply be putting content already available on the site into a different format.

I haven't been interviewed yet nor do I have an author section (I was asked about it but since I'm always writing new stuff, I decided to leave it in the hands of whoever does that). I do think a review section would be good. But I don't mind parody interviews with celebs either if it's done well.

I'm assuming this would be something published and distributed on the CSS social media sites, so it wouldn't hurt to use it to bring more eyes on content on here. If someone came across the pages hosted somewhere and decided to check out CSS, it might make them want to go to those sections and look at the content.
All those interviews use the same questions and are done more so as a way to let people know the authors on a personal level. Giving interviews in a magazine would be different, offering new subjects to focus on. It could focus around what authors have recently published and ask them questions about their latest stories and what they're looking to write in the future. Somebody else could be doing the interviewing and asking their own questions.
No one really even comments on those reviews and they're all written by authors. If they were put in a magazine format, it would probably bring some activity to them and encourage other people besides authors to pen reviews on stories.
I think if you put out a magazine every month covering what's going on at the moment on the site, it would bring a new level of activity on here. Have a section with all the latest stories of the month and highlight the ones who all achieved over 1,000 or 2,000 views as the hot stories, and write a blurb on them and the celebs featured in them. A special section for the pinup of the month and key stories involving them would work.
Authors could come up with sections too centered around stories and writing. I think a cool idea would be to let certain authors have their own sections and do what they want with them. The site is called Celebrity Story Site, so a magazine with a good bit of writing and story topics leading to the celebs, I just think works out better.
I'm shooting ideas here, just hoping to contribute a bit. I think there is much greater potential here though than just writing spoof celeb interviews. I'd make the parody Q&A stuff just one section, maybe even a good bit of a comedy section. There's so much you could do here with a magazine of covering this site and bringing more eyes to the content on here is a winning scenario.

1) What is being suggested is quite different than the original idea pitched. I very much like what is being suggested, however that is an immense amount of work, even to do it quarterly. That information, for the most part, is already on the site. I won't speak for the rest of the moderation team, but I simply do not think that is feasible. Those suggestions for things we do not do currently do are something we should (and will) discuss amongst the moderation team.
2) If people have thoughts and ideas on how to better publicize the site, please let myself or one of the other moderators know! We are always on the lookout for new ideas! We take all feedback and suggestions very seriously!
3) Author interviews occur regularly, and every author will get a chance to have an interview. After we finish the initial round, there may be opportunities for more in-depth interviews.
4) All authors are encouraged to create and curate their own entries in the Author Index, as we feel it provides a unique flair with the way the author wants to present their work. As the moderator responsible for updating and maintaining that, I am working as fast as I can to get everyone's up, in addition to keep the Celebrity Index current. It is quite a lot of work.
5) I also feel this is a good time to reiterate. No fakes are permitted on the site.
6) Getting back to the original pitch. This was DarkSwordsman idea, he should and will lead point on it unless he says otherwise. And everyone should feel comfortable writing whomever they'd like, as long as they fall within the rules of the site, please feel no limitations in your celebrity selection.

OK since I am the person who most likely will be the one creating all of this, I feel the need to chime in with my own ideas here.
First off, I will explain a little bit about the ins and outs here:
I have the means of production to create the magazine. Depending on if I have a template to work with in Image Ready and how many pages, will determine the difficulty of it, but it's possible. The cover will be the easy part. I can handle the pages too but I'm not confident to tackle that without having some kind of template to work with. If I can find a decent template and get the dimensions right, we could be all set.
What I cannot do however, is publish it into a PDF and distribute the PDF file around. I currently do not have a decent PDF converter or the plug-ins, so that is out of my reach. This isn't a major problem however. With the right template, I can do single pages and doubles (side by side like a real magazine). I would like to get dimensions of a real magazine, that way I can use better font sizing and that should give us enough room on the pages to cover everything.
As for some of the other ideas that were pitched here, I have some feelings I'll share here - I love the idea of making this into a magazine we could share all over social media and use to promote the site. This wouldn't be a problem whatsoever, as the entire magazine pages could be shared as an Imgur gallery and posted through our social media sites page by page.
I don't see a problem with using it to cover content that is already on here. In the regard of being able to share it everywhere, I would want to cover stuff that is on the site and use it to shine a light on the content and authors here who could pitch in with their own sections. You never know, someone who has no experience with CSS could see the pages posted somewhere and come rushing over here to dig through our content. I am all for something like that which could help the authors on this site and bring new members, readers and potentially inspire new authors.
-
I think we've gone way off topic here on what the original concept was. @DarkSwordsman, we'll look to get this back on track on your original idea.
Any thoughts of where we start with what you initially proposed?
-
I apologize that my suggestions and ideas here threw this thread off the track. I wasn't trying to offend anyone if I did.

No worries. I get wanting to promote the site, but I think people would respond better to a magazine featuring celebrities they like and that showcases our writing talent, than a bunch of interviews with writers they aren’t familiar with.
Anyway, I think the best way to go forward would be for people to think of what articles they want to write and which celebs they want to feature. Probably best to share them here first so we don’t end up with multiple authors all writing about the same celebrities. I’m fine with Justin writing the main interview with Elizabeth Olsen if that’s what he wants to do. I’d prefer if people steered clear of additional interviews if possible, cos I’d really like it if we had a variety of different articles.

Not just Elizabeth but other lesser known celebs that people should know too. I'd also write a confession piece with Chloe Grace Moretz (although my stories about her kind of already are in a sense). I think the magazine should be content that's not already on the site.
