What are we all writing right now?

[CharlotteKurai]

I need to write an other topic for a story. Girl is going to be better written because I got so much pending I have deleted it for that reason. I need beta readers.

 

[UncleJunior]

Finishing up one of my "extreme taboo" stories and setting the genre aside for romance or something. Getting a little chapped with all the piercings and leather. Also, I can't write another "mom's not home" scene, they're getting mind-numbing.

I was open-minded when I started taking requests but now it's getting a little repetitive.

After a few false starts recently, I am now close to finishing my Halloween story. I have one more scene to write, and then a quick round of editing to make everything feel cohesive.

It will go in Erotic Horror - yes, flying in the face of all the advice people have posted here during this contest. I think I have the "horror" element, but I probably need to add some more eroticism to make it truly pop.

Just published (appearing tomorrow) my first novel-length story here, the tale of extreme and sexy ... well, the story is "Pranked" so you can guess what might appear in it.

Up next, a continuation of my Liz series.

Just submitted a “work travel hook up with permission” story and I’m starting to map out one called “The Year I Remembered to Live” - main character in major depression after wife suddenly leaves him, college age daughters get fed up with his moping and gift him 6 months of personal trainer time with a friend of theirs. Dad ends up becoming a central love/sex interest of the friend group.

All while being completely stuck on what to do next with Twin Sister’s Wife Wants a Baby. I have fragments but can’t string the next bit together.

Just finished Bright Lights, Black Dress which has been posted today.

Missed the deadline for the Halloween contest story I was working on - just not feeling it.

Was working on a story for the Winter contest, but again, not feeling it.

Currently working on a sports-themed story, currently named, "Tantric Team-Building", but hoping to come up with a better name. This story I'm having fun writing/researching and I got the inspiration from @Kelliezgirl.

I wrote two poems today.

Recommenced my novel, finishing Part V. I’ve already written a lot of the concluding Part VI, so the end is finally in sight.

I just completed the first draft of the next installment in my Five Masters saga. However, I realized I need a transition story to maintain continuity. I'm working on that now. At the moment, there's no sex in it: mostly dialog setting up Galatea's training regimen and setting up relationships for the next couple of stories.

Classification is getting trickier with the Crossdresser/Transgender split. Galatea is the inner feminine manifestation of the MC. The series focuses on her development inside an older cis-male body. There will be no physical transitioning and, for the moment, she won't present as female in her "normal" life, but that may be subject to change as her relationship with her masters grows.

In my mind, this should be Transgender, but I can understand people arguing that, without physical changes, it should be in Crossdresser. The point of the series is exactly that: how does a person deal with the emergence of her inner feminine when the body must remain male presenting, especially when their inner woman is emerging later in life and they're average working folks living in "average" communities?

Having submitted this story, now I immediately want to write a follow-up. But it will be from the perspective of a mage in an Urban Fantasy setting, who has to track down the protagonist of the first story ("Dead Together").

The opening will probably be something like this:

The mage who trained me had a crystal ball the size of a watermelon. Wonderful for scrying, of course, but it wasn't very portable. Thanks to advances in magic and technology, my own crystal ball is little more than a marble. I project the visions onto my television, or my phone if I'm on the road.

Mostly I use it to watch my neighbour Marcus while he's showering.

I am cis, but transpeople I know actually don't think surgery is required or desired to be trans. You're trans based on how you feel, not how you look.

a story about a dude getting his wife a 3some and about my wifes niece punishing me for being a "man"

I reckon that's transgender, where the theme of the story is sexual or gender identity, knowing you're in the wrong body.

Cross-dressing is when the gender identity is assured, but the cross-dressing is a kink. There's a big difference, I reckon.

Your comment raises an interesting question: if gender identity is in the mind/spirit, is there really such a thing as the wrong body? I'm not trying to disparage those with gender dyphoria. My character, Galatea, is trying to come to grips with accepting the body she's been given but accommodating it to who she is and who her masters want her to be. Given all their realities, rather than railing against the unfairness of life, how do they make the most of discovering who they truly are in the later stages of their lives? What I want to develop in the relationships is that it's not only Galatea who is being transformed, but all of them.

Transformation isn't limited by age; it's the essence of a good life. The challenge is managing that transformation when it's counter to your societal/cultural norms, while still managing to live in that society/culture. At least, that seems to be an underlying theme to my stories (not entirely intentional, but I suppose my characters aren't the only ones dealing with transformations).

Being very much a cis male with no doubts about my gender or sexual identity, I'm not best qualified to answer that. I learned about the complexity, also the fundamental simplicity of this part of the human experience, when I befriended a transgender woman who gave me a far better understanding of her identity, circumstances, than I would have otherwise got.

The best thing to do when writing fiction is to inform yourself from someone who knows what it's all about from their first hand experience.
