Do you masturbate to your own published stories?

[nice90sguy]

There are a couple of my stories that are still a major turn-on for me, and I re-read them regualrly as wank-fodder, but most of them don't do much for me any more -- and never did turn me on that much, even while I was writing them.

How about you? Are any of your published stories also your biggest turn-on?

Feel free to advertise!

 

[YDB95]

Yes, several of them. That's why I wrote them in the first place!

 

[GoodGirlsDeserveFun]

Not stories but I sometimes masturbate to the audios I make and post, not so much the JOIs but the others for sure

 

[Altissimus]

Every time they get a comment.

 

[Ian_Snow]

Nah. I got a mirror for that

Ah, another coke chopper in the house

 

[impresso]

I think it goes like this )

 

[ElectricBlue]

On occasion, yes. I've got a couple of stories where the timing is... just right.

 

[Mastered_again]

No, but while writing I do get turned on as I'm conjuring a sex scene, creating the images and moving them to the page

 

[davion2308]

I'll enjoy a nice stroke and touch while I'm writing. And when I think about my current WIPs.

But then I'll go back and read what I wrote and I don't care for re-reading my own sex scenes. It's odd, since I get feedback that I do a pretty good job. 16 of my 48 stories have that fun little red "H" next to them and I get comments about how I turned people on and got them off.

But it doesn't work for me that way.

I'll read my stories, or read parts, but it's always the exposition or dialogue, never the sex. I think the sex part is mechanical and easily my weakest element, even when I incorporate feelings, emotions, connection, and I make things steamy.

Long story, short: "Nope."

I write mostly fanfic, so of course I’m into my subjects. Irl, I’m a straight ethical slut, so I’m into women primarily but like many men I’m ok with bisexual women who are into me or at least willing to accept me as a friend. The majority of the characters in my stories are either women I’d date if I could or those I’d gladly call friends if they were ok with that. The men are the latter type also, and a few are men who’d turn me in if I were gay. Regarding the sexual activity in my stories, I make sure it turns me on as I write it. If it doesn’t do anything for me, I figure it won’t work for the reader either. So yeah, I’ve wanked to my own stories at times. More so other people’s though.

Ultimately when I read over my old stories, I admire the tone, themes, character arcs, and other elements as much as the sexual action. I smile at my accomplishments and how I worked in various tropes. Sometimes feedback prompts this, sometimes my own advertising looking for more feedback. I leave rating my stories to my other readers. I already know what I think of them.

Has my work ever turned me off is a more interesting question. Yes- with predictions and insider knowledge plus judging from a hater perspective. I have rarely heard the latter from fans, by the way. Must be my work to address it before I publish during self-editing.

Aroused at least.

All I'm thinking about is tentacles right now...

All I'm thinking about is tentacles right now...

The thing about Coleoidphilia is that none of the episodes are really about tentacles. I explain a bit in The Litlikers Guide to The Emiverse - right at the end.

[Codoc24]

No. I still like my stories but I don't usually go back and read them for any reason once I am done writing them.

I feel so ignorant now

Oh, stop pretending you're the Angel when we know you're really the Demon, Em.

 

[ThanksForAllTheFish]

Yes, but only after a few months. I need to forget a few details here or there for it to be exciting.

 

[AchtungNight]

It’s cool if you’re Arueshaelae, Em, however. Google that name if you need to know who I’m talking about.

Uh ... m ... maybe ... .

Ok yeah. This one in particular.

 

[Booleanean]

I've only published one so far, and I can't bear the thought of going back and reading it again. I definitely masturbated while working on it though.

Unpublished stories I've written for my own consumption really have no other purpose.

My current most completed series (just editing left to do ) started out as a definite stroke story, but I somehow managed to hit the perfect storm of post-writing depression and just every emotional trigger I have from stuff that's happened in my past and situations in my life right now. I still got really turned on writing the sex scenes, but the emotional load is just to high.

 

[Euphony]

or the I suppose.

Usually they are an exploration of sexuality, the psychology of coupling, acceptance, etc. as seen through my own, imperfect lens. As that's how I sexually express, surely I'm getting high on my own supply.

More concretely, though, I do not play off of any of my specific works. Mostly they consist of what's innate in me so hardly spin up material.

Where true excitement comes from (though, rare is there physical involvement) are those magical moments, usually in the drifting off to sleep or half-waking/half-sleeping where an honest, creative, usually semi-sexual true unfolding occurs where I can work through my own psychologies to help my characters work through theirs, permitting them their wants/desires driving their motivations.

Creativity is fucking sexy, helping others feels incredible. (and yes, I'm aware these "others" are imaginary friends thanks.) and, more generally, figuring shit out.

That'll spin me up like no other and pretty much is why I do what I do. (and probably why I lack quality sleep. )

 

[yukonnights]

No, reading erotica isn't a trigger for undeniable/uncontrollable arousal. I almost never re-read my stories once they are published. The closest I might come to arousal is laying awake at night envisioning a potential plot I might want to write.

 

[Rob_Royale]

No. Not published stories. Stories that I'm still writing, yes. I do most of my plotting when I'm not writing, in quiet moments. So every now and again, I'll just be lying in bed, imagining how the scene is going to play out and umm ...
