I'm writing a story now that is from the males POV. It's pretty much the first time. I began in the female's voice but the story just wasn't working for me. I had great elements but they would not gel in a way that I found exciting. But then I started playing with the characters more and I realized the challenge of doing it from his perspective exciting me and so I think it will turn out well.
I'm trying to not make the fact that it's a guy intimidate me. I'm focusing on who HE is as a person and character and hoping the rest takes care of itself.

I love hearing what other writer's think about things like this.
For myself, I write what I'm compelled to write and hopefully the audience will find it. I get off on getting others off. But I have to be passionate about the story myself or I can put that oomph into the story that makes it "zing". It would be easy for me to just write a sexy story. But I like having my own unique voice. I try to write what stories I would love to read and I'm proud to share.
I think I'm doing well with this outlook. The reader can feel my passion/excitement. And I have actually drawn people who didn't know they liked my type of story while finding those who have been craving it. It's a win, win.
