Hey all. I'm not too experienced in fictional writing, much less making it erotic. I recently posted to a sexual role play here in lit and there was no more room for men in the thread. I happen to like camping and hiking and such and although I've never experienced such joys as are brought by the outdoor experience with a woman, I decided to post to this thread as a woman anyway. This is my first time writing from a woman's perspective, or had a woman as my character in anything I've written. All my experience until this point is in analytical writing, non-fiction, essay's etc... I wanted to know if anyone can read my part in this thread and let me know if I'm too wordy or what not. Actually any feedback at all would be bitchin. Um. I hope to hear from some women that are used to writing as women because I like what I wrote but I know everything can spare room for improvment. If you have any thoughts or feedback, please let me know. Thanks!

If it's a consolation, every woman is on her first time being a woman, too.

The result is, there are a lot of different kinds of women. There's a very wide variance in the way women handle it, wider than you imagine. It is almost impossible to make up a character so weird and twisted that he or she could not actually occur in the real world, unless you give them super powers.

Most people prefer to read about people, at least some of whom fall within normal limits. Since this more reliably makes the fiction accessible and applicable to the reader's life.

I suggest writing from strength. Write what you know.
 
I took a look and it seemed ok to me, believeable as a woman but understandably i felt the writing a bit stiff, it didn't seem to flow well, maybe what will come as you relax more into the role.

I really enjoy writing as a man and have done it on a couple of occassions with my stories and find i slip into it fairly well. Let your feminine side loose and you'll do fine :)
 
Wow, that was fast

I hardly had time to take the dog to the groomer and I already have two replies, thanks cant and english. I appreciate your thoughts. Yes I know it's stiff, but that's how I'm used to writing. I hope to get some more stories up on lit as a practice for my fictional work. I'm sure I'll get into character better as the days go by. This character in particular, Monika, is a combination of past life experiences (not to mean reincarnation), my present state in life, and the things I know nothing about. So it's a work in progress.. I appreciate your comment cantdog, how true, how true.

As for Monika Hakimari, she just wants to wear tights and a cape. :D
 
amraam...I am sure you'll do get fictional work as you write more as you have a knack with story telling and some very poetic imagery going on too :) Let us know when you have more to be seen :)
 
I like her so far. As EL said, a little stiff, but it's fine. I'll be interested to see her develop. I haven't been on Lit long, and I have never read any of the sexual role-playing threads, but I am fascinated by what I have read to this point.

Wow, just wow. I never expected to hear that last part. Thank you so much. angelic, I hope you follow the story as it develops, and you and english, and anyone else post what you think about it. I know it's stiff and I'm sure it will continue to be to an extent because I read too much Tom Clancy. But it's something I'll work on nonetheless. And I'm not too good at imagry, but I liked what I wrote regarding that, so I'll try to keep it up. Thanx again!
 
I recommend finding some stories written by women and paying close attention to how they paint and maneuver their female characters through a story. Failing that, you might want to take a minute and read Colleen Thomas' 'How To' piece on writing lesbian sex scenes. Even if you're not writing lesbian sex, there are plenty of pertinent details there that point out some common faux pas writing by straight writers and male writers. ;)

Not to be a jerk, but did you inform everyone in the SRP thread that you're a guy playing a girl. It may matter to some people.
 
I don't have anything to add, except to say that I still laugh everytime I see this thread title. And then I think- if this were the GB there would already be a parody thread called "first time being with a woman..."
