Ha. How interesting to see this here, I was very conscious of this as I was (shameless plug) writing my big Tentacle Demon story that I am currently in the process of publishing to the stories site. In addition to long stretches of exposition that frankly quite outweigh the sex, especially in the early chapters, I realized early on that once you've described tentacle sex in excruciating detail, every sex scene afterwards isn't going to have anything new. Watching porn movies doesn't have this problem, even when you've seen it a hundred times before it's still easy to get off to it. But when reading, and especially when writing, too much redundancy is death.

I managed to have some new situations and perspective shifts that keep some of the later scenes fresh and exciting, but with the remainder of the scenes I very honestly glossed over the details quickly. All the necessary motions are still there, but it's over and done in a paragraph or two rather than a full page or more. It seems cheap, even to me, but the alternative felt like it would be worse.

One chapter in my story involves the monster fucking three girls, one after another on different nights, and were it a movie all three scenes would totally be shown in their entirety, but I completely skipped over the first two because I didn't want to have to slog through them. It turned out to work okay in the narrative context, but it demonstrates my point well. Another chapter shows that the idea of a certain minor character fucking the monster amused me more than the actual fucking itself, it's a nice chapter as part of the whole but on its own from a porn perspective it's terrible.

I guess the other thing you need to ask, are the sex scenes in service to the story, is the story in service to the sex scenes, or are the sex scenes kind of running along with the story but not overly connected to it? If the details of the sex are vital to the story you're probably going to find yourself writing it long and detailed. If the story is just an excuse plot then you damn well better have a good sex scene. If the sex is there just for the sake of having some sex and isn't especially significant to the plot in its own right then you're not going to be motivated to do much with it. I can point to examples of all three of those within my tentacle story.

At least with my story, I hope the sex has a good enough overall balance along with a good enough plot that the deficiencies in certain individual sex scenes are excusable. I think if every sex scene isn't a winner that's the best you can hope for. I realize now that's also a big part of it, even though I specifically split the chapters up so that each one would have a sex scene and theoretically stand alone, they really are best taken in the context of the whole. The story was conceived and written start to finish rather than each installment developing after the previous one was done and out the door.

 

I would most certainly not agree that sex can lose it's appeal if your not making them up for story sake? Boy meets girl, girl meets girl, girlfriend meets mother, etc; it's all been done but, like my favorite storytellers in 70's and 80's porn? Spoof and Mimic classic books, movies and be inspired to be more detailed with the same "kick" of being there!

 

Exactly. If I can create realistic characters and settings, it's easier to "sell" the sex scene to the readers. Generally, my characters enjoy their couplings, and I want my readers to enjoy it too. It has to feel natural for that to happen.

A story can start with a cumshot, but from there, it's all down hill. I think a better tale explains the who, what, where, when, and why before things get too messy. Not all sex scenes have to be graphic, either. A rape scene can be horrific and a seduction erotic and satisfying without either one including minute detail. Sometimes as a writer, less is more.

The Kama Sutra notwithstanding, there are only so many ways to describe the act of copulation. Setting the mood and making it seem logical for the characters to get together are the things that separate one sex scene from the next.

 

My Wife

I love reading kinky stories about my wife written by others. I think it is so hot to see what others would have your wife do.

 

Sex Stories and The Details

I probably have no business in this group, as I do not consider myself a real Author/Writer, but perhaps my comments may inspire others like me to write.
First a little about me I am a poor writer and a little dyslectic, but I have been getting better. All of my english teachers in Jr Hi and Hi school would be amazed at all of the stories I have written. But if I could have written stories about sex in school my sentence structure and grammar would have improved over night! Most of my stories are posted here on XNXX and others are posted on Fetlife.com but almost no one reads them on fet!
This is the link to my stories if anyone is interested, now well over 100 of them.

Here are a few ideas that may be of help to a new aspiring author about writing sex stories. Almost everyone that writes will tell you all of the good stories have already been written! Writing stories and especially sex stories are in my opinion are a lot like writing music. Just about the time one thinks that no more wonderful and incredible hits can be written someone comes along with a new song that just blows you away!



Stop and think about it for a moment, how many different ways can a girl be used romantically or sexually? The details are in setting the scene the situation the wording, and if what one sees in a picture video or can visualize whats in ones mind, and if this can be turned into words that make it a believable story with feeling that brings tears to ones eyes and emotion ( Smoking Hot ) then you will have been successful.


(1) I am what I call a detailed and mechanical writer I try to write about all that happens in the story with connection and detail, an I think this is a good thing.


(2) Always try to write about the things that you like and want to write about. Such as situations of submissive slavery abduction or romantic sex also describe the woman and characters in the story with detail, hair eyes breasts bottom and pussy. Especially what you would like or want to see how or in the way of them used in pleasure or abuse! Petite women, or full figured ones that are over ripe and are what I call jigglers. Ones that just reek of sex appeal and ones that almost any man would be tempted to drag off into the bushes and bonk their brains out!


(3) Last rewrite rewrite and rewrite. You should never be happy or satisfied with a story and should always be trying to make it better. You will be amazed when you do this after reading it over several times as to how much better or more believable you can make it by doing this one little thing.


The most wonderful thing is to have someone that has read your story comment that what you have written about was exactly what they fantasized about happening to them especially a young woman, or someone that wants to use your story in some sort of kinky sex publication or magazine.
This does not happen very often as there are so many sites where people post sex stories that are free to read and authors like me could care less if someone wants to copy or plagiarizer the story. All I want is for them to be read and enjoyed.


The following is only my opinion.
It has been suggested by others that I write an autobiography of (My Wife and I ) and our kinky sex life, or a coffee table book of kinky and erotic sex stories that are a mixture of fantasy and all of the things we have actually done as a kinky couple! We are an old couple now but have had a most wonderful and rewarding sex life!


Like I said there are so many already doing this that how would one market it, and one could not leave it out when parents and straight vanilla friends come by, or maybe in this day and age one could! So it would be limited to certain occasions and therefore be subject to special times and less attractive for one to purchase or display. There was a time before the internet when quite a number of sexual oriented girlie swingers and bondage magazines were prevalent and most had several stories about such things we have all written about, but today that is not the case. So I do not think that much of a market would exist to publish and to self publish today. Except maybe Kindle E-Books route as they are quite popular.


But who knows and that is why my suggestion would be to write about what you want and like and let the chips fall where they may. Hope this observation might help encourage anyone on the fence to give it a try?


I only got on these sites, first to write about my wife's fantasy's as I thought they were so good and did not want to see them lost, this morphed into writing about some of the things we actually did! I have also written stories for and about others at their request!
If I can be of any help to others please ask. H&R

 

Hearts and Roses - if you read stories and write stories, no matter how often or infrequent, you are part of the forum in full. Your input on this thread as with all others, is more than welcome.

 

I try to script the story in my head first. Then write the sex scenes as it is basic stuff. I found it hard at first but then I realized the lead up to the actual act became easier. there are times when I will watch a few scenes and take away some of the action and insert it into my story that is always a help.

Another little tip is to sit by yourself and actually think it thru first bringing the emotion from both or all parties.

 

I'm new to the writing thing, but most of what I write is based on fantasies I've had which makes things easier. At the moment (I'm trying something different soon), I also write in the first person which I think makes things much simpler - you literally can be "in the head" of the character and describe things that way. You don't have to describe the scene "neutrally", trying to cover how everyone is feeling.

The thing I really struggle with, and probably don't do a good enough job of at the moment to be honest, it coming up with enough different words for various organs (ass, butt, pussy, hole, rod, cock, dick, member, you get the idea). I make myself feel better about that by saying to myself that in real life I only use a small number of those words anyway, but sometimes it doesn't read as well as I'd like.

 

I would agree writing in first person is easier, but it can lead to a very one-sided story. Whether writing first person or third, you still have to find a way to clue the reader in on what characters are feeling. Dialog seems best. If someone says, "I feel, want, need, hate," the reader knows without the writer turning into a narrator.

The use of a thesaurus' worth of synonyms for body parts can be worse than repetition. Sometimes I think it's better to avoid specifics -- write the scene so you don't have to constantly repeat words. Here, reading your stuff aloud can help.

 

Good point about the need for a long list of names for sex organs. Some characters would never use certain terms. If you're writing a sweet little love story, you're not very likely to use "cunt" or "sweet ass" when words or phrases likely "her sex" and "shapely backside" are available. On the other hand, some stories are down and dirty and the more base words fit it correctly.

I grew up trying to sneak peeks at Penthouse Forum stories and remember how in that era the style was to try and get wildly (and often weirdly) creative with the terms. "Heat seeking moisture missile," "throbbing purple love dart" and "heaping portions of my rich baby batter" are among my favorites I recall from those days. I was only about ten when I started stealing magazines from the bottom of my dad's closet, and I remember that even at that age I would end up laughing at some of the phrases people came up with.

Now, I kind of want to try and write a story in that style just for grins. But it would only end up on my "back-burner" for a long time. Anyone can feel free to do steal that idea or to post it as a group story and people can see just how strangely creative they can be.

 

If you want to write a story in that style, have you considered doing a simple short story to see how it comes out?

 

I think we all feel this way to some extent. At least I know I do.

 

Now there's a challenge! I have never been able to write a short simple story in my entire life!

Seriously, it would have to be a short story, because I think the style would get old pretty fast.

I was mostly just musing. I have a batch of things I'm currently working one, and I'm writing one or two hours a day about five days a week and usually one four hour session on the weekends to get them all in. The idea might come to fruition some day, but it's definitely going to sit on the back burner for now. That's why I don't mind if someone steals the idea.

 

One matter I have learned with the 1000-word Short Stories I have come to favor is this: you can usually rough out a story within an hour to ninety minutes, then come back a few days later and edit it with fresh eyes. That is how Naomi - Midsummer's eve and 'A Professor' came about.

It can become repetitive, yes, and thus grow old, especially if the sex scenes are the same over and over. Yet innuendo and sensuality can play a steamier roll than ever.

There are a limited number of practical ways to describe a sex act, without repetition. Yet how many ideas can be generated after a simple...

"He looked upon her and smiled, leaned in close and whispered such words of desire that her cheeks flushed with great heat..."

While we have no exacting idea of what he said to her, the general idea can be inferred by each readers imagination.

For some time I wrote extensively on the sensuality of each scene instead of the physical consummation. In the last few months, a sort-of breakthrough has occurred in the usage of innuendo, and the desired path it opens up.

This is one reason I recommend a short story for new writers seeking to get their feet wet. They can select the size they wish to shoot for, write and edit, and present it to the forum to see where they can improve, and just as importantly, see where their strengths are to be found.

 

I find in general that if I start off with an idea in mind on how the scene is going to play out that things just go from there.

I tend to let my imagination go and let it wander to where it wants to go. Of course I have to end it at some point and that's the hardest thing to do when you're in the flow of writing a (in my opinion, a half decent) sex scene.

 

it's all about the metaphors you use.

The challenge is finding the right metaphors. After all no one wants to read he went in and out .in and out over and over again. But if you due your presex set up right you can leve some of the sex to the reader's imagination and save a little effort.

 

I like your way of thinking, Hellcat. I want to think and imagine. I don't like everything spelled out. I like open endings, twists, and such. I still hate writing sex scenes.

 

Thanks for the tip, Hellcat.

 

almost all my stories are from my life so I do find the sex scenes any more difficult than any others . I do understand what your all saying a broad experience base does tend to help me out . It is easier to write about what you know and have experienced. I have talked with and I hope helped many young authors do not be afraid to ask others in pm's for advise or suggestions. The greatest gift is the gift of sharing. Well next to the gift of submission that is.

 

On this we agree, Joe.

The typical sex story begins with something like, "He took off her clothes, exposing her huge tits. Then he plunged his thick, nine inch cock into her wet and willing pussy."

Boring, boring.

That is why I usually stay with the General Discussion section. Occasionally a thread there makes me think.
