First off, thanks to this post for giving me a kernel of an idea.
I'm a big fan of the game Alan Wake and its sequel. The basic premise of the game is that a writer creates a story that comes true. I realised there are some erotic possibilities from this idea.
A writer who's been single for a while for whatever reason needs to buy a new writing device. He's a little old-fashioned despite being young (at most 30-35) and prefers writing on a typewriter to a computer. Obviously in the modern day it can be a little difficult to procure a typewriter, so he does some searching and finds one in a thrift store. It's perfect and he begins writing on it. Somewhere we're introduced to a woman he's interested in, who works for the writer's editor. He tries flirting but it doesn't go anywhere. One night, he's horny and writes the start of what will be a personal, erotic tale. The woman he models the female character on is a spitting image of the woman he's working with, but he dresses her more sexily, wishing the woman was more confident about herself. A few days later, the writer sees the woman dressed exactly how he imagined her in the tale, even reciting a line he wrote in his erotic piece. He's a bit taken aback, but brushes it off as a coincidence.
That's really as far as I got, as magic realism isn't something I usually write. I'm stuck on how the writer completely figures out it is his writing that's making the changes to this woman and possibly others. I also want there to be a few rules so the writing isn't overpowered. E.g I know that I want the writing to be true to someone's personality to come true, and that it can only be used for erotic purposes. Any help on further ideas is much appreciated, as well as how far the writer pushes the scenario before telling the woman what he's done, if he ever does.
