Expand The Blowjob Story?

[KelvinBlack]

Working on a short blowjob tale and the sex scene itself is almost 3000 words long! I've a feeling this is too much. Should I keep it 'as is' or should other shenanigans be ensuing by now?

Speaking as someone to whom writing a 3000 word blowjob scene is a mere warmup, I say write whatever length and defat you enjoy. Just avoid my fault and don’t be to repetitive.

The story I'm writing now originally jumped into the first sex scene within about 300 words from the start, and it lasted for about 3000 words. I thought that was long, but I haven't removed any of it. I did go back and weave in a little more of the story and characterization, and move part of it to a second scene.

I had wanted to keep the story to around 4000 words in total and just see if I could write the blowjob scene to stand alone... There are currently just under 1000 words setup and character intro before the sex scene and I'm still not convinced that it needs to progress to another scene from this one...

Yes. The setup and character intro is important, but it's a bit of a task sometimes to realise whether you have too much or too little I suppose...

When it's posted, put the link in this thread.

I'm curious to see what a 3,000 word blowjob scene looks like.

Hell yeah, drag it out. I can see a whole story starting and ending with it and anchored by the same ongoing blowjob...flashbacks, tutors, all kinds of stuff. Do it!

Write what needs to be written.

Blow what needs blowing.

Get it on. Slurp.

I never concern myself with word counts. I just try to paint a beautiful picture woth words that will encourage my readers to finish the story and leave them hungry for more. Kant

 

[Voboy]

My sex scenes each run around 5500-6000 words on average, though I never knew that until a couple years ago when I spent some time writing to a word count.

I MUCH prefer not writing to a word count.

The scene should progress organically; if it does, it’ll feel genuine no matter how long it is.

Some readers want the setup and characterization, and for some it's just in the way. You need to pick what you want to do. Some readers will love it. Some readers won't.

For ultimate reader service, satisfy both. Start with hot sex. Then weave in the setup. Then more hot sex, and some backstory, and more sex. Add banal details and then return to fornication. End with a post-copulation golden glow. Success!

Right. I keep reading about stories leading up to a climax of sex at the end. I see no reason not to start with sex and drop sex in as you move along. In fact, a lot of my "resolves" don't provide sex. The characters are already exhausted by then. And I hope the reader is lying back, puffing on a post-coital cigarette, humming, and sporting a silly grin.

This idea sounds like a better fit to what I was trying to achieve...
