Welcome to Crush Publications!
We are thrilled you stopped by! Crush Publications is the perfect place to write all of your fantasies and more. We specialize in crush themes, but we want all your erotic fantasies. Okay, well, maybe not all of them. We have a list of things we will not accept below. We also have two sister publications for specific niches
&About The Owners
Skylar and Sunny have been writing partners for 14+ years and have founded a previous publication ten years ago. They have a wealth of knowledge pertaining to publishing, marketing, and being independent authors. They love to share their knowledge and to learn from others. They value their peers and readers and will do their best to always listen and be supportive.
Crush Publications is a safe place for writers to explore and share their own sexualities, kinks, fetishes, basically anything, erotica within reason. Stipulations for the exclusions are listed below.
What Do We Want?
Original erotic themed short stories that allow readers to explore various genres, kinks, fetishes, and so on.
Nonfiction stories about being an erotic writer the ups and downs. Speak with either Sunny or Skylar about these for more details.
We want to include as many kinks, genres, and niches as possible. Here are examples of kinks you can include, but there are many others you can explore too... LGBTQ+, BDSM, Bondage, Spanking, Daddy Kink, Age Gap, Threesomes, Reverse Harem, Sharing, Multiple Partners, Gangbangs, Gender Swap, Food, and the list can go on and on. If you are concerned because your kink is not listed, just let us know. It is most likely just an oversight on our part. (Hotwife, cheating, free use, and cuckold will now have its own publication)
.Edited stories with any word count. Keep in mind 7 minutes and under stories do the best on this platform, but you are welcome to submit longer stories.
