Wanted to share a recent trend for those who are fond of WAM/Sploshing stories, there are a couple of new writers on LiteErotica making some great content that haven't seen on other sites (Mainly UMD or r/WamText)
For quick recap, WAM stories used to be a very popular medium especially in the heyday when WamStoryArchive was around, and when WAM Library popped up for a bit. Sadly both were lost due to hosting issues in early 2010's and since then stories have been pretty scattered.
5 second history aside, I wanted to share some of the new authors I've found making newer stories and getting some good engagement and posting some fantastic content on there.
First is Undignified Deeds, https://www.literotica.com/authors/UndignifiedDeeds/works/stories They are actively working on one of the more extensive and best written stories I have seen in a while in terms of WAM stories. Great buildup and captivating writing that really keeps you on toes and "checks all the boxes" in terms of WAM themes.
Second is Messy_Ink, https://www.literotica.com/authors/Messy_Ink/works/stories They have recently posted some new stories that are pretty connected but each a good read even as standalone stories. Theirs are quite cheeky and a top pick for any fans of gunge and general slapstick style kind of WAM.
Third is KaylaAltobelli, https://www.literotica.com/authors/KaylaAltobelli/works/stories Most of their stories have a strong focus on clothes ruining, mainly dresses. They have a good collection of these types of stories with a couple standalone stories along with a longer series for those looking for a bit more density. Their attention to detail and descriptions are a treat for those who enjoy trashing clothes.
Edit: another great and very prolific author to check out after they commented in the section, give them some love! https://www.literotica.com/authors/Nat_Needs_Humiliation/works/stories I read through some of their standalone stories with a character named "Carrie" and loved their narrative in that one and the overall light tones of humiliation. That being said they have numerous other stories to check out and of course also post their own stories her on UMD!
Of course, these are all subjective and merely my bid to try and get more attention and hopefully inject some more engagement/life into WAM stories again. If any of you happen to have any other authors you have found that I did not mention please share them! WAM story fans are always craving and the door is always open!
This is some spooky timing, because I recently discovered Undignified Deeds myself. The content of the stories I read wasn't my favourite, but the writing is a cut above most other stuff.
Also, I hate doing stuff like this, but I feel like I'm supposed to link my own work here too:
As I'm sure you are well there are hundreds of stories on this forum hidden away somewhat under 'people' then 'stories'. Thanks for the links you provided but I do wonder if the authors who contribute to this forum get the recognition they perhaps deserve.

Thank you for linking! I can gladly edit and add yours. I remember reading your stories with the Carrie character during COVID times a while back. No shame or hate, as I said want to get more attention to stories all around and you definitely have a lot of stories!

Absolutely and UMD writers are great reads when the gems pop up. Unfortunately in my opinion, UMD story section is a coin flip. Sometimes you land on great story with proper tags, good setup and a great balance of plot and smut with a nice slow burn, other times you find a story that is clearly written with one hand and lacks in the story elements.(Which are fine some days, but when a post is just two-three paragraphs of smut with no plot, I may as well watch a video)
Next, UMD is great for first time writers due to ease of upload and relatively simple approval/moderation which means you get lots of new uploads on a frequent basis but this means that for a reader you may have to sift through a couple stories before finding one that you can really follow and get into. Additionally I know that UMD is slightly more lenient on AI content which I appreciate us having tags for in the Forum section but in the story section, there is some self sorting needed as some stories get through with signs of AI writing.
I can gladly share a post of my favorite UMD writers, will have to sort through my bookmarked pages as it has been a minute but as I said when it comes to WAM stories the more the merrier!
I agree that there is a tendency for some people to post a large number of short, similiar stories which in turn means the longer more thoughtful efforts get pushed down the list. I yearn for the day when the 'stories' section appears directly on the toolbar next to 'forums' which should make people more aware of its existence!
