Regular looking people.

A word from a writer..?

Many a time and often have I complained about the bimbo/hunk mentality which seems to pervade the whole of the the erotica "industry".

As a writer, I find this worship of the body beautiful has been taken to totally absurd lengths. This site is no different, with "authors" invariably using over-the-top, tongue-hanging-out descriptions of their main characters. It has become an utter nonsense with all credibility thrown in the bin.

No story of mine is populated with casting-couch starlets. I believe in taking my reader with me, allowing him/her actually to believe... to believe that what he/she reads could actually be happening. To me, this is the very essence of taking the reader to another place - the start point - of good story writing.

Long live the boy/girl next door...

I'll second that. Women (especially) have been made to feel like second class citizens if they don't conform to the ideal. Whereas like many others I can't stand the sight of rolls of body fat doing their own thing (which is a health issue way over and above its unsightliness) I think that ordinary "plainness" doesn't get anywhere near enough of a look-in with erotic writing.

Erotic authors seemingly just can't - or more likely won't - believe what a draw it is for a non-catwalk model reader to think that she too could be the object of fantasising. Shows how gutter-level stupid most of these scribblers must be, not to seize this opportunity.

Read your Christmas tale, by the way. See your messages.

Gutter-level stupid scribbler, here...

I write about hot people doing hot things because it's a fantasy. It's fun to fantasize about things that could never, ever happen to me.

I don't have to read about a middle aged couple fucking missionary after they put their kids to bed and watch an episode of the penguin. I live it.

Fine. Absolutely fine. What most people here are posting is merely, when you get down to it, their own droolings.

Just don't expect anyone else to think it's either realistic or convincing to them. And especially anyone else with half a brain.
