Leaving a sex scene to the imagination?

That sounds way too grown up for me. My stuff tends to be lick, lick, suck, suck, fuck, fuck, cum .

An author after my own heart!

Sometimes it’s, slap, slap, crack, crack first .

Tell me what you think. I have only been writing a few months.

Me too. I'll shoot you a PM after I've read a couple.

If I have several sex scenes in a story, I often leave one or two to the imagination, especially if it's meant to be romantic. I know stroke stories are really popular, but I don't think every sexual encounter has to be an exact blow by blow of every last thing they're doing (no pun intended.)

Deal. I’ll try to do the same. But am trying (not very hard it seems) to get some work done before the long weekend.

I'd enjoy those sounds in any order you'd want to present them.

An amusing take on this approach would be an erotic "Mad Libs" where the reader could fill in the blanks.

On my latest project, I've created a setting for a sexual extravaganza. A type of dream sequence. Lots of characters and locations. I try to keep my stories at 20K words or less, with at least six sex scenes.

Now I intended to write a short descriptive piece with a cameo character and my imagination got the best of me and the cameo character became a sexual participant. So adding another sex scene, would be in between two rather major sex scenes and would sort of make the story crowded. If you understand my meaning. I plan the sex scenes carefully and allow time for the story to develop a bit, between them.

So do you think doing something like this might be okay? In an erotic story where you sort of expect to read each sex scene?

As Jessica bathed she let her mind wander and her hand drifted down to her pussy.
A knock on the door startled Jess from her reverie. "Yes? Who is it?"
From the door, Jessica heard Magda's sultry voice. "It's Magda. Can I come in?"
Without waiting for a response, Magda opened the door and poked her head in. "I've brought my dress and makeup case. I thought we could get ready for the party together?"
Jessica smiled wickedly. "Get in here."
Magda slid into the bathroom and shut the door as she began to unbutton her blouse.
Jessica sighed appreciatively. "Oh yes baby, come to Jessie."

Boom. Scene ends. The story picks up an hour later when Oscar comes to pick up Jessica for the party and finds he has two dates for the evening. In any other kind of fiction, this would be perfect. But in erotica? Thoughts, please?

Not everything has to be a big sex scene.

I’m leaving a sec scene to the imagination in one chapter but revisiting it in the next.

But sometimes it serves no real purpose, for example in part 4 of ALL THE DEVILS ARE HERE I purposely didn’t cover the couple visiting every sex room as it served no narrative purpose, just the ones that pushed boundaries and the story;
