All of us who post stories started out as first time authors.
If you are hesitant to grab one of these Story Ideas and " go for it", I encourage you to jump right in.
Start small. Try a story of about 900 words, built around one setting, scene or premis- likely two to four characters.
First or third person? Whichever you are comfortable with. I prefer first, as do many "beginners", but if third works, fine.
Start by introducing the protagonist ( main character). One paragraph, say 75 words or so.
Then the setting or premise . Paragraph two, but a bit longer, say 100 to 150 words.
Introduce the lust interest(s). avoid the 'rookie mistake' of focussing on breast or penis size in math terms. " Ample bosum" is better than " 38DDD". " " watermelon chested" is even beter.
Another 100 words.
Now the 'hook up'. I like to use dialogue, but suit your comfort level. This should take 150 words or so.
Then the sex. Don't rush it. The more detail the better. Read your fave writers , be inspired by their images ( but write in your own words, in your own order). There are guides to writing sex scenes and to terminology on the Writer's Guidelines off the Story Index. I suggest at least two or three paragraphs of "play", 200 words or so.
A pithy ending, then ask a nice online friend to proofread, then you're home.
Over the next few days I will post a few simple scenarios I think are particularily easy for aspiring authors. I invite others to add to them. But perhaps the easiest is to reduce to writing your favourite fantasy.
Have fun.
