Pair of all black sneakers for the gym and a jump starter power pack.

Goddamn.

Sometimes yes.

Hey everyone,

The thought of writing sex makes me groan now. Not in the testiculuar/prostate relieving way either. A comp idea popped into my head last night, but identifying with intimacy is very difficult for me now. We'll see. Hope everyone is well.

Everything has a reason behind it. Everything, no matter how small. As I told Nisha over PM, this genre is made for internal conflict. The way most of us came up causes some hang up with sex or another.

Look at your TV shows, movies and novels. Before the action goes down, there is a reason for it. The conflict is internal or external. Can be both. What are obstacles that can possibly get in the way and what are the ways around them? I am trying to get better at these things myself as i find the topic of story so fascinating. Good writing can make almost anything enjoyable to consume.

Whiplash was about a fucking drummer trying to make it. You give a fuck about drumming? Probably not. You gave a fuck about dude's passion and the obstacle in his way - JK Simmons' character.

I still feel like I am learning myself, but yes it is way more satisfying to pen something with decent story, characters, conflict and a resolution. I don't consider myself any master or even intermediate, but I have been trying a little more as of late.

Read many novels, watch TV and movies along with YouTube videos giving instruction on writing. Passive learning comes from the novels/TV/movies consumption. You learn why you like something like say, Conflicts into another conflict into another.

Im new to writing in the depths of lush a few poems and stories so far. I want any opinions on story length and depth of detail... i like my flash erotica quick and easy to produce... but i want to start branching into series with 6-8k words per chapter... im worried they might be to detailed or too long for people to enjoy ... please any help would be lovely

Depends on your goals. You want to attract more readers, then go with sub 4000, hell even sub 3000 words.

6-8K chapters are fine, once you accept that you will attract less readership generally.

Latto looks like she tastes good as hell. Love being between a pair of thick ass thighs.

Good morning everyone,

Converse with your friends. Make sure they're okay. You never know, ya know? People are scared to be open and vulnerable but they're really hurting inside. May be feeling purposeless unbeknownst to you. Please don't dismiss them by saying they're feeling sorry for themselves or such nonsense. It's depression and it's valid. Anyway, not quite sure why I said all of that.

Quote by KimmiBeGood

Nope. A healthy imagination can write great erotica, too, C!

Or unhealthy! I think that guy that wrote Fucked In The Head may need a psych evaluation 😈😈.

All jokes aside, experience+imagination+reading the work of others+taking practical elements of porn can create great results.

Reading regular fiction as well as watching it. Getting a better understanding of how story works passively via that along with watching some YouTube videos for advice. If you've never had a threesome in real life, you can "common sense" your way into writing something practical. But above all else, fiction always involves a dash of dramatic seasoning that may veer a little from reality, but it's fiction at the end of the day. Superman flying at top speed to catch someone would shatter their skeleton in real life.

Quote by NatashaTsarinaErotic

Experience is a must to write credible erotica, in my humble opinion.

Ah Goddammit.

Alright, time to pack it up. See you, everyone 👋.

Nope.

My eyes haven't unbugged 😳. Sweet cream on an ice cream sammich!

I'm in shock. Little lost for words here. Thank you so much.

Also, the writers here are awesome and really turn it up when competition time comes around. Writing can be cruel, but when it's rewarding, it's beauty knows no bounds. Thank you all once again!

I definitely hope more writers jump into this thread, because seeing the different approaches is inspiring. We're all so unique, yet tied together by this single hobby. I think we can all agree on one thing: editing is a pain 😆.

Okay, so here's my process:

Initial draft.

At a future date(it varies), I read it over and look for logic and plot holes. I note them. Another day, I use to fill in said holes I find.

I read through to correct redundancies, correct sentences that don't sound right. This trims a lot of fat. I do two passes of this and it can take days.

I run my story through a website that provides the top twenty words, two-word and three-word phrases. When I reduce the frequency of those to a respectable amount I move to the next step.

I read it over again, then run through Grammarly to help with anything important I miss. Reading it all over one more time is optional since Grammarly mostly is for comma stuff and hyphens nowadays.

Submit the story at my convenience.

Time from drafting to the final product varies. Last story I published, I drafted that in November 2023. In fact, two stories published in May were drafted in 2023. Only story of my last four published that was drafted this year was the comp story.

Hurt by Johnny Cash almost always gets me.

Dropped my first teen story this week. Not sure how much closer that gets me to the Prolific badge. Will have to check.

Giving a neighbour's granddaughter a ride isn't a problem. The granddaughter being massively horny for you, however, just might be.

Pick Ups And Drop Offs

Hey everyone,

Dropped another publication, and it will be a while before another after this 4 week string:

Pick Ups And Drop Offs

Yeah, why not. I don't talk to anyone regularly, but if opportunity arose 🤷🏾‍♂️.

The good thing about being a writer is that inspiration can come from anywhere. You could get it from the places Kistin and Kimmi mentioned. Heck, you can get it from the news, TV/movies, things people say in conversation with you.

Generic tropes, you can ask yourself, "What if I take this generic trope, but imagine how it would look if presented on Cable TV?"

Sometimes, a title can come to you before a story idea and stuff expands from there. Discovering Plutonium By Accident came about from watching a Seinfeld episode years ago 😆. Then I thought, what would be a case of discovering such a rare thing/opportunity? My Comp story came about from a picture, combined with me remembering someone uttering the phrase "Fucked In The Head".

Okay, I'm getting long winded, but I think you get the point. Best of luck, brother.

Story #100 happens to be my Island Getaway Comp Story.

Ian's business trip to the West Indies provides a licentious opportunity to reunite with an orally gifted, friend with benefits.

Fucked In The Head

Finally got my entry in, which is also my 100th publication!

Fucked In The Head came to me one late night after being stuck. Jotted notes into my phone before falling asleep that night(didn't trust I would remember the idea in the morning).

Lol, me and TheShyThespian submitting close together again 🤣. We both sure like cutting it close and taking our time.

Quote by KimmiBeGood

I can’t wait to read your comp story, C! And I hate Grammarly. I use it to find the typos and big punctuation blunders but generally ignore its suggestions.

I skip a large segment of their suggestions. Punctuation or if I screw up some hyphenations are where it helps me the most.

Quote by RowanThorn

All the ‘premium’ suggestions are exactly what I don’t want. ‘Let AI fix your writing.’

No it may not! Which is why I will never give them a dime, but I would donate to them to make the premium suggestions go away and never come back.

The premium suggestion section I use mainly for punctuation. A lot of their sentence restructuring suggestions are very meh to me. Like, I just wanna know my punctuation is decent, man 💀.

This story, I drafted just a little before mid 2023. Random idea came to me out of "writer's frustration" and I started scribbling... about said frustration 😈.

When a writer finds himself stuck, a bad influence attempts to steer him away and into its wet orifices!

The Shadows Of Doubt And How They Fuck Us

Quote by CarltonStJames

Island Comp story. Finally getting around to editing.

On the penultimate stage of editing, which is the most annoying. After that is Grammarly, then publishing.

I have another story that's complete and I only have to run through Grammarly before submission as well. I'll submit that after the comp story is published. Maybe in early June.

I can't wait to finish my story so I can get to reading entries. Writing is rewarding, but the process is annoying, lol.

As I hit the 500 story mark yesterday and nudged over the 40,000 flame 🔥 line on the same day, all drinks are on my tab for the holiday weekend! (Thanks to my friends here who are always so supportive!)

This inspires me. I need to lock in!

Island Comp story. Finally getting around to editing.

Sending unsolicited dick pics is lame and shows you actually know nothing about women. Women prefer pics of secondary sexual characteristics over a tube attached to wrinkly balls.

Be a normal person and talk with them. Build rapport. Why in the flying motherfuck would you send random dick pics to people you do not know?Are you random dick pic senders stupid? Are you deficient?

Oh, and if you think, "Well, shucks, my cack is 8+ inches and I send them, so me and the small dudes aren't the same." Man, shut your dumb ass up too. You think 'cause you packing that anybody want to see that shit outta the blue? Now she's just getting a kitchen towels tube attached to two wrinkly balls instead of a toilet paper tube.

My suggestions:

First offense: Suspension

Second offense: Site ban

Get their lame asses outta here, man.

My first publication of 2025's finally here in Discovering Plutonium By Accident, my second Wife Lovers story ever.
