*giggles* reminds me... have to finish off my story about Doll this week... ;)
( she thinks i'm kidding, obviously... ;) )
sorry for the derail! to add to the actual thread, i tend to copy and paste stories that i find worth re-reading (my online library is scary!) and i can't remember a single second perspective written story that has made the cut. this may be just my own prejuidices, admittedly, and, as Doll said, it is THE most difficult perspective to write from.. hmm.. that said, i am wondering if i should toy with it, just to see what happens.
Not even "Wedding Day"?
*blinks then falls over in a fit of giggles*
damnit, Damon, for some reason wedding day didn't even register as second person perspective! ironically, i read it not long before posting this! sitting here trying to figure out why this is so, and all i can come up with is that it wasn't the usual clumsy feeling perspective that i associate with... am going to have to go read again.

a serious answer. i have an over active mind when it comes to sexual fantasies as well as a lot of interesting sexual experiences to draw from. That is the simple truth. Yes, when i am writing, i use music to inspire the writing, or perhaps a picture, if i find something that fits the scene, but mostly it's pulled from my dirty little brain and god, you can't believe the amount of stories locked in there still waiting to come out - it just depends upon my mood as to which stories make it to print and in what order.
as far as writer's block, i simply just stop writing until it passes. i never try to force my writing, knowing that it will simply breed resentment towards my muse. i just simply stop, be it for an hour, a day, a week, or longer. when i need to write again, i simply sit down and do it. also, sometime it helps to switch things up - if i am burnt out on erotica, i'll write in my journal, or do some non erotic fiction... and the poems i publish here mostly come out of those moments when i don't feel like writing stories.

My own opinion... i'm not fond of this perspective. it really has to be well done to be effective, and i usually find that it pulls me out of the story when it is supposed to be addressed to me, but it's obvious the writer knows nothing about me or how i would react to something. just my 1.5 cents

i will occasionally write from a male perspective. it's a fun excersize, and i think i do a good job of it (based on feedback as well as my own feelings) really, it's kind of fun to get into that headspace and i like the challenge of seeing if i can make it work.

*nods* i don't read as many stories as i'd like to here, but yes, when i do, i certainly take the time to rate them. As with Doll and some of the others, if a story isn't going to end up deserving a 4 or 5, i usually can tell fairly quickly, and i won't finish it nor rate it. Honestly, i think that there's enough ego to be tied up in peoples work here that a poor rating is just sort of hurtful, and i'm very careful about that and i admit to reading only things i have an interest in (so some catagories i stay clear of) seening as how i am reading purely for personal enjoyment here.
btw, my own personal rating system when i do rate, tends to be either a 4 or 5 - 5 meaning it's just an amazing story, and 4 meaning the writer shows promise but can improve. yes, perhaps this skews scores a bit, but really, until they come up with a 10 point system, that's how it will remain for me. ALSO, i pay more attention to the comments then scores here as a way to gauge my own efforts and ALWAYS leave a comment when rating somone elses work - they need to know what they are doing right or what they need to work on - that's how you get better, and i really appreciate when someone leaves constructitve criticism for me!

omg, my dream job! seriously! to get paid to snuggle and cuddle, nothing more then that? yeah... that said, this would be a nightmare in actuality, i'm guessing. it might state no sex, but where do you draw the line on what is a cuddle and what an inapropriate touch...
Her Royal Spriteness
i wouldn't normally have an issue with it. in fact, depending on the circumstances, i'd be apreciative, like if i had just ordered lunch and found myself a few dollars short or something and some guy helped out. in some cases, it would be a really sweet gesture.
