Romance Authors in Here?

[Emotional]

Yeah,

I'm kinda boring vanilla.

I don't do the incest, BDSM, or non consensual.

Like one of my other favorite authors says.

I like Hallmark with sex.

Any other boring authors like me here?

Nothing wrong with romance. I've got 4, soon to be five in there, but a few more of my stories could be classified as romances. They're my highest scoring stories, so there's a lot of romantics out there.

BTW Emotional, add a link to your stories in your signature. You might pick up a few more readers.

I don't do those themes either. If I don't like something, I'm not going to write about it, and those are 3 topics I have very negative opinions on.

I do a mix between CMNF / Naked with romance and erotic tension.

I usually don't have that much sex in a given chapter because writing people grunting and moaning feels very weird and artificial as I write it, so I write all the romantic tension around it instead, and then mix comedy into the sex to get me through it.

 

[Smuttyandfun]

Most of what I write is fairly romantic, at least by the end of the story. Surprisingly, readers of both sexes seem to not only enjoy, but pretty much insist on seeing them happy and settled once the story is done.

A few years back, one reader commented on my very first submission, Nice Spread:

Really hot!
Love your stories. It’s refreshing to find original fantasies that are so well written. I like how you take edgy situations yet make it clear that it’s safe.

Till I read that, I never realized that's exactly what I do. Though every story is a obviously a fantasy, I don't like the idea of anyone feeling used or abused, no matter what situation they've gotten themselves into.

I also think the sex is better, when it's clear that the couple involved care for each other.

 

[MrPixel]

I mostly write romance about a loving harem. Lots of joyous sex, not a lot of excruciating detail. However, I do delve a little into BDSM, mostly the ladies taking out their adoration of the MMC with a little bit of spicy intimacy on occasion. It's a fun romp. Some scenes still induce tears for me, even months after writing them.

 

[SamScribble]

It would appear that I too am guilty.

I just checked, and the majority of my highest-rated stories are in the Romance category.

 

[Paul_Chance]

LOL - this is a non-sequitur, but as I was scrolling the list of threads, I thought this said "Romance Authors in Hell". Hahaha - it made me do a double take.

On the subject though, there is definitely a market for romantic erotica. It's the biggest market.

 

[TarnishedPenny]

Not sure how to do that tbh

Go to your stories, copy the address.

Go top right of the screen, find your avatar. Click that and you will see Signature. Click that.

Away you go.

And, yes, I like good romances. I’ve written a few, too. Welcome.

 

[Rustyoznail]

It's easier if you're on a computer.
1) Open a new tab with one of your stories
2) Click on your name - make sure you have something like this https://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=5027244&page=submissions, not https://www.literotica.com/my/#/works/stories/published?page=1
The latter won't go anywhere apart from you.
3) As TP said...

Guilty as charged.

 

[Smuttyandfun]

Guilty as charged.

That Makes two of us. I often get comments that my stories would be great for a Hallmark movie. Guess they could be saying something worse, right?

 

[Rob_Royale]

Some of my mature stories have romance tags.

 

[SouthernCrossfire]

Most of my stories are romances (whether they're in the Romance category, Mature, or whatever) and they're generally well-received. However, one possible concern for some writers may be that some readers don't venture into the Romance category very often. That may make it a little more difficult to pick up large numbers of followers in comparison to writers who focus on a wider selection of more popular categories.

Good luck!

I write in several genre but most of my stories have some element of romance. The reason for that is that up until the advent of social media, romance was the typical way people became close enough to willingly engage in sex. Girls were taught by their mothers to save their virginity for that one "right" man, and boys were taught by their fathers to respect women. By the time sex was actively discussed, both knew enough about each other to form the bonds of love and trust. That didn't always mean marriage, but it usually did.

I know there were men who were always on the lookout for a willing woman, and the 60's convinced women that sex was not only OK, but it could be really great. Still, the "free love" people were a minor part of that generation. Most people dated until they found the right person, and they found that right person because of romance. It's the same for older people today. It's fun to think about grandmas and grandpas getting it on in the assisted living community, but most of them are still following what they learned from their parents.

That's not to say mothers and fathers don't teach their kids the same things today because I believe they do. The difference is social media has resulted it the ability to "try out" a partner before really knowing much about them. That's not romance. It's just like buying shoes that don't fit and then taking them back to the store for a refund except there's no refund for the time invested. I don't think that kind of disappointment would make for a very good story.

And they are pretty damn good too!

 

[JuanSeiszFitzHall]

In much of what I write, my characters connect emotionally and things work out well for them. But on a couple stories I've posted in Romance, the readers there have walloped me upside the head, regardless of the HEA endings. Maybe in my quest to try new and different story concepts, I turned people off by having young lovers with a genital-size mismatch decide that an open relationship would be better than no relationship at all, and that a young woman could search for love despite being prone to yeast infections.

Imagine how thrilled I am, as I have just completed the first draft of a new story that can only go in Romance.

Incest and bdsm can be romantic...

But to answer your question; yes, I have two of them; Night Of The Maidens Love, a severely underrated story in my opinion, was a contest story for Summer Lovin', I think. And Sweet Dream. Then there's two poems; BBW, and Rain.

I just realized one of my poems is the highest rated thing I've ever put here, 5.00

 

[Kumquatqueen]

I've put one story in Romance - Homesick Halloween. Some characters, that's right for.
I liked one comment, "So sweet, I didn't mind waiting for the sex."

But.i admit most of my stories start with sex, and any romantic emotions build over time. My Smoking Hot series and sequels are basically a romance, with two guys who start out having a casual online hookup, then slowly the cynical widower and the footloose guy realise they mean more to each other...

Some focus on friendships building over time, generally with sex involved, or have BDSM mixed with the romance - My Love For You is a Red Red Arse is all about a guy's love for his absent wife, but very much to be avoided by anyone who doesn't want to read kink!

I just want to support the observation incest and bdsm can be very romantic. Incest and bdsm are certainly not antiromantic epithets. In fact if you want to be realistic, and tragic romance is your goal, its hard to concoct a situation where a lead couple is more star-struck than in an incest one.

Even CNC can be very romantic. When one party is surrendering out of complete trust, and the other taking over out of complete love.

I say it can be, because bdsm doesn't need to be rough, most of the scenes I've done, and seen, don't just go full tilt- they start slow and build up... and go as far as the sub allows.

I do the BDSM and group etc.

But I also do MF and FF which doesn’t include the above

It would be boring to write just one thing - well for me anyway
