My stories were generally written with someone in mind.

Indeed, that's how I ended up in Lush in the first place - I wrote stories purely to titillate a friend, so of course, I put myself into that situation and yes, I got very turned on, not only as I wrote them, but also as I anticipated their reaction. As they were so well-received, I decided that I'd love to see what other people thought of them.

That's why I usually write them in the first person. It's how I would see events naturally unfolding.

Lush was the first site that came up in a google search and it's the only one I've ever frequented.

I'm in agreement with what most of the others have said, that if your story doesn't turn you on, how can you expect others to get turned on by them?

I write now to please myself, but with the reader in mind, so I dare say my style will chance accordingly. In fact, a recent collaboration was quite different to anything I'd written before and was really well received, so maybe that's the way to go...

Anyway, in answer to the original question, yes, I do get turned on by my own stories. There are some very fine writers here, on Lush, whose stories also turn me on a great deal!!

I got turned on by my story before I start typing. When I start planning the story in my mind, the plot, character and all the hot sex scenes get me excited and hot.

Usually I let those ideas bake in my mind for a few days before I start writing. So by the time I start tpying them in, I already have a clear view what the story would be when it's done.

When I start putting those thoughts in paper, I pay more attention to the details like if the conversation or action matches my character's personality, if the scene makes sense, if I used same verb in the last paragraph that might make my reader feels bored...small things like that. So by that time, because I focus on the flow of the story, it does not turn me on as much as when all the scenes were forming up in my mind.

And as to the editing stage, I put much effort in checking the spellings, correcting word usage and making grammar corrections that the story hardly turns me on anymore.

OMG yes. Totally! If you're own words, stories and thoughts don't arouse you then how can you expect someone else (the reader) to get aroused.

I'd say that I'm more aroused when writing erotica that any other form e.g. pictures, videos, chat or indeed readers other peoples stories.

Fiction is better than fact for me for 2 reasons. 1st I don't have that many 'true' stories that would be that intresting to others. 2nd in fiction you can totally go wild, go where you want to go.

I have fantasies that I'd never want to happen in real life.

IN a word, yes. I type my stories out as quickly as I can, because I am usually imagining myself in the story. So in first draft, they are loaded with typos, missing words, and all sorts of other eggregious errors. I set them aside for a day or two, then come back to them and edit them so they're readable. I am usually turned on by them at that stage, too, so sometimes it takes several edits to get the mess straightened out. After that, I go back through them, changing a word here or there, to avoid repetition. At that stage, the story is not a turn-on, because what I am doing with it is so mechanical, and I am so focused on a single sentence or paragraph.

I prefer to write stories out longhand, using a fountain pen. When I write them that way, there are very few errors that need to be repaired when I transcribe them into the computer. Often, the first hand-written draft needs no editing whatsoever.

I can get turned on by re-reading my older stories. When I'm writing I need all the blood in my head, and am thinking about characters, plotting, grammar, etc., too much to get aroused.

News of ALL my novels (and where to get free copies) on charmbrights.webs.com/novels.htm.

Getting turned on as I write is usually a measurement (for myself) of how well I've developed the characters and the situations. Like many others in this thread, I've based alot of my characters on people I know. The female characters, usually. Funnily, basing a male character on someone I knew once backfired when it came to writing the sexual aspects of the story. His personality and look fit the story but I didn't really care for him in real life so I had trouble envisioning the explicit scenes and ended up just plowing through them to get them done. Yeah, that sounds about as arousing as you could imagine.

Anyway, if everything comes together as I write, my mind comes into vivid clarity almost as if I'm in the room watching it unfold (or better yet, experiencing it myself). I can't tell you how many times I've caught myself realizing my typing has slowed only because one hand has somehow drifted down to my crotch!

I wouldn't get such enjoyment from writing stories if I wasn't turned on by them myself. In fact I don't think I'd see the point of working at stories like this if I didn't get some kind of excitement from doing it writing them.

It's actually a measure of if the stories are any good. There have been stories I've gotten bored with half way through, when writing, and just deleted, because it's a sure sign to me that they aren't any good.

As others have said if the story doesn't excite me as it progresses then I know it isn't working. If on the other hand I am tempted to relieve my excitement then I keep going because I know then something special is happining with the story.

Lushstories, the site your Mommy warned you about.

If I'm not getting that horney feeling while I'm writing the story, then I know something isn't working quite right; how can someone else get turned on if it isn't moving me in any way.
Some stories I've wrote are fave and turn me on more than other's. But marginally other peoples stories turn me on way much more!

I got turned on by my story as I was first designing it and dumping it out, but as it turned into a project, it became more work, and with re-reading it over and over, it's - alas - lost quite a bit of heat for me, personally.

But that's ok. In the end, I didn't really write it for *me*. :)

Yes, yes, yes!!! When I first get an idea for a story, I kind of transform into an entirely erotic creature. My libido totally takes over. I kind of loose contact with normal guidelines for decent behaviour.

As an example: When I once thought of putting in a scene of the leading character (which as a fact was me) sitting on a train opposite of a nice-looking woman, getting so turned on by a glimpse of her knickers under her skirt, that she slowly, seemingly unintentionally, lets her skirt ride higher and higher up on her thighs, and, when she gets the woman's attention, slips her hand in between her thighs, and -- well, she ends up caressing herself in front of the foreign woman.

Mmm... where was I? Sorry, was just overwhelmed by a wave of horniness... Anyway, to get the true impression of the scene I got on a train and strolled through the wagons until I found a single woman, that would fit perfectly in my story, in a compartment. I sat down opposite her and started my teasing act. And it worked! I won't write the full story here, but can tell, that we spent the night at a small hotel.

Well, I'm very fond of background researches . Think they are very important --- And then the actual writing process... I have to put towels on my chair to avoid stains. When I've finished my story, I have to re-write it because the original version lacks words here and there, and, obviously when I've got especially aroused, sometimes I've repeated the same sentence over and over again .

I began reading very early in life compared to the statistics kept on such bullshit, and I found that words themselves turned me on even then, oh not sexually, but emotionally. I read things like "Old Yeller" and the " Yearling" and sobbed and sobbed. As I developed, my taste in literature developed to Shakespeare who had a way with words unequaled even today. Then the first writer that made my dick wiggle was Harold Robbins when he described a woman bringing her pussy juices to her anus to prepare it for a stiff dick! OMG.

I was hooked.

A few months ago, I picked up an old article from a mens ragazine, and came across a story of an older woman that was on a journey of finding her sexual boundaries. It was delightfully funny, yet deliciously sexy as she opened her mind and her legs and let it happen. My cock grew stiffer and stiffer as I read how she suddenly loved oral sex, anal sex, toyed with some minor taboos, that finally led to an orgasm that was Guiness Book of World Records worthy!

I came in my slacks and found myself panting...then I realized...the story was written by me in 2005!

Apparently my own writing turns me on even years later. If I don't get an erection during writing or cybering..whats the point? I don't write for me..I write for you..

So, after that long narrative, my answer is absolutely...There. I said it.

The very first story i wrote had me so turned on and horny, I found myself trying to relieve the aching parts of my body in numerous fashions multiple times a day for the entire time it took me to complete the story (two weeks, three books). Even then I was still quite aroused and finally had to visit my significant other (who lived 150 miles away) where I finally got the relief I so desperately needed. The erotic stories I write these days, still turn me on, though not to the extent the first ones did.

Yes, I do get turned on as I write - if I wasn't, I doubt that others would find it arousing either.

I find it funny sometimes to go back and re-read older things I've written. If it's been ages, it's almost like reading a story I've not read before and I can get really into it. (of course, I'll usually see things that should be changed or updated, but I don't have much time for that at present)
