Queer Writing for a Queer World
//
When Ollie returns to Mrs Green’s to rehang her curtains, she manages to embarrass him further. This time in front of his brother. She insists on checking his sore hole, much to Louis’s amusement. That evening, Ollie goes out for a drink with Ewan and Conor, where the topic of discussion is Conor’s sex life, or lack of it.
//It has been over a year since I posted one of my stories to Nifty. So, I thought it was about time I submitted one of my short stories to try to gather more readers and support the site. Nifty may not be perfect, but it remains a valuable resource for the LGBTIQ+ community.
I know not everyone enjoys my stories, and I value constructive criticism, as I always want to improve my writing and make my stories more entertaining. I like to stretch myself (no, not in that way), I enjoy experimenting with new scenarios and fetishes. Sometimes these have not worked as they are outside my experience.
I also love language. I’m proud to be British, and I speak English very well (unfortunately, I speak very little Welsh). I like to think I write English pretty well, too. I also write unapologetically British English and do not translate to other variants of English. But I enjoy discovering the differences in the variants, especially slang, and I sometimes use the term ‘knob’. This is commonplace where I live and can either refer to the entire penis or the helmet. “Let me suck yer knob!”
I try not to use complex or difficult-to-understand language, so when I received the email below, I began to wonder. Has common usage changed, and does the term ‘forfeit’ no longer mean ‘a fine or penalty’? Or is my use of the term peculiar to the British, or old-fashioned? I’ve searched the Cambridge dictionary website, and it does list this meaning as ‘mainly UK’. I would appreciate your thoughts. Also, let me know if there are any other very British English terms I use that non-Brits find difficult to understand or jarring.
I may include a brief explanation of my usage of the term ‘forfeit’ at the beginning of the story. Perhaps I should add a disclaimer to all my stories that they are written in British English. Either way, rudeness is not an appropriate response.

Thankfully, Ollie manages to go the day without getting fucked. His hole is still sore and needs a break. He has a few jobs to do, and the first one is for a sweet old lady, Mrs Green. There’s no chance of getting fucked there. But he does lose his shorts. When he gets home, his dad has discovered that he has started to work for Mr Cremaster, and Cockaigne Construction isn’t happy.
//
Ollie is busy decorating a new nursery for a pregnant couple. The mother is heavily pregnant, and the father is desperate for sex. Ollie is on hand to satisfy his needs, but he is rough. Ollie goes to see Ewan to talk about his experience. He gets some good advice and also another orgasm.
//
Louis is getting more adventurous as Ollie finds him sitting on his bed in nothing but white briefs. Ollie notices that his brother’s cock is turgid, but not hard, and is leaking precum. When their Dad goes out for the evening, they persuade Mum to explain why he gets upset by seeing them naked. Mum tells them a short history of their courtship and explains where Ollie gets his massive cock from.
//
After stripping naked, Ollie goes to the Cremaster Freedom Resort, where a resentful man meets him. Arthur is currently responsible for the resort’s repairs and maintenance and doesn’t appreciate Ollie’s help. It isn’t long before he puts Ollie in an uncomfortable position.
//
After being fucked by Ewan last night, Ollie wondered how Conor would react. He’d surreptitiously watched them fucking. Conor seemed fine, and the three young men stayed naked as they drank coffee. But when Conor was alone with Ewan, he let him know he wasn’t happy. Ollie had to deal with it. He also had to deal with his upset family, as he never told them he would be staying out all night.
//
When Ollie goes to Bell-End Bed & Breakfast, he finds his meeting is with Mr Cremaster, the proprietor of the Cremaster Freedom Resort. The old man offers Ollie regular work helping with repairs and maintenance at his resort. But there is one rule that Mr Cremaster will not bend: the resort is nudist, and clothing is not optional. Everyone who enters the resort must be naked.
//
Ollie needs to talk about what has happened to him, and Ewan is the best man for the job; he doesn’t feel he can open up to his best mate, Conor. Ewan helps Ollie in more ways than one.
//
Ollie needs to talk to his best friend, Conor, about what happened to him in the client’s basement. They’d arranged to meet at the local pub, but Conor got there first and was talking to someone at the bar. The three young men spent the evening drinking, and it was late when Ollie found the courage to speak about what happened with Conor and their new friend, Ewan.
