You know I don't do that!

[GforGraham]

Got even more frustrated than normal today writing a new chapter. I was almost at the end of an important scene when she yelled at me about what I was writing.

"Oh come on, you can't have me doing those things. I am so different to that, I am disappointed and pissed off with you for including these things. I would never dream of doing it on a dirty floor, please give me some credit for common sense. Do you know where all that dirt will end up going. It will take me days to get it all out. Bloody cretin, stop now and rewrite the whole bloody scene. This time get it right. You should know me by now, this is chapter 4, not like we have just begun our time together."

Her companion was no help. He just stayed as he was and laughed at the whole situation. He had experienced her temper as well.

I stopped and thought about her complaint, and yes she did have a good point. I had to erase the entire scene and start again, and this time without her getting on the dirty floor. Thinking cap on and back to the story.

It is a bloody hassel when you characters complain and are correct at the same time.

Ugh! I can't believe you messed up! Didn't you read her SRP? Good grief, Graham...you know I'm just kidding, right!?

Push her ass back down on the floor and get busy with her. There are always exceptions to the rule. Run with it.

I tried reading her SRP but she wouldn't keep her legs apart long enough.

Umm, what is an SRP?

Sexual Role Play...I assumed you were doing one
But, reading through it again...I'm thinking you're just pulling my leg..

No I did get a bollocking from one of my characters today. Sitting here sulking. Hate when the story goes in wrong direction, rewriting is such a pain. Bad enough when the characters take it off script, but me making the mistake is sad.

Hugs...now, quit sulking or nothing will get done.

I've done that a few times. Been a ways into a story then when it gets to the sex there's something I want to happen and start in then in the midst of it I hear the muse say, "Um, would she/he really do that?" "Did you just spend x number of words portraying them a certain way and now you pull this?

And i pause and come up with something more fitting

Now for your exact example....easy fix! In the story she complains "You expect me to do this on a dirty floor?"

The male character then either...

Laws his jacket down for her to lay on and gets gentlemen points or....jacks her up and fucks her against a wall so she doesn't have to be on the floor.

Or....she pushed shim down on the dirty floor and rides him so she's not on it.

There is a way out of every box you write yourself into.

So don't be surprised when a character outright hijacks the story in a whole new direction.

Thanks, needed that kick on. Just had to think of alternatives staying in character.

Yep, easy when I just have to move location and pull up a table.

So don't be surprised when a character outright hijacks the story in a whole new direction.

Wouldn't stories be so much easier if we used robots instead of characters. Just change the programming and off you go.

First time with each other in the biblical sense, and his name is not Grey. ☺

An old story...

Many years ago, I read a piece that told of a major science fiction writer (I don't remember which one) who appeared at a amateur writer symposium with a list of 20 things that you could NOT do as a writer of logical science fiction. It included things like, there is no possible way that Earthlings could breed with aliens and the impossibility of breaking the speed of light. (Forgive me, its been years since I read the list).

The list made perfect sense, and he spent some time explaining it.

Then...he said... When you get to be a good enough writer, you can break every single one of these rules.

Good luck.
