Sex sounds

Grunts, groans, moans, sighs, lusty gasps, creaking of the bed, the pound of the headboard, a sprinkling of Oh, God, fuck, fuck, fuck, shit, holy shit, holy fucking shit.

I do find my erotica characters say "holy fucking shit" more than any real people I've actually encountered. They also invoke God quite a bit, which I'm not really pulling from life.
 
That's fantastic.

There should definitely be some kind of literotica bingo game. And that should definitely be on it.
That story probably hit all the squares.

I was intentionally going for over the top with the euphemisms and stuff.

Bonus, the phrase "non Euclidian bullshit" makes an appearance.
 
Agree. But be careful with the hard consonant sounds. They can’t be drawn out. The F and the U can be drawn out in speech but not the C or K.
I've described it as a click of the tongue, or like a cymbal hit. You can put a very slight emphasis on the consonant - but i think it works okay as a visual thing. I don't imagine too many people read stories out loud - some visually impaired readers would. My Word reader seems to manage okay, reading it back. She s a little robotic, but a pleasant enough American accent.

Funny that, how the lapsed Catholicism creeps out. I've used that in a few stories, where a woman's bff comments on her friend's sudden religious conversion when she comes.

Makes one wonder if the Muslims shout "Praise Allah!" or recite the Holy Tasbih when they crest. : P
 
I've regularly attempted to author verbal sex sounds phonetically, with the hope that the reader might better "hear" what's . Result: I'm terrible.

Fffffffuck or Fuuuuck or even Ffffffuuuuck work. Similarly, the G and D are hard consonants so the only way to draw out another common word is Goooooood. (Could be God or Good, I know.)

yeah, definitely one of my pet peeves.

Here's a hint: if you can't pronounce the sound you're typing, retype it til it actually reads like something a human could verbalize.
