In most of my stories, there is always an element of power struggles. Someone is the dominant and the other is the submissive, even if the story doesn't contain bondge. My question is what's your favorite subject to write about whe writing erotica? Do you have a thing for bondage? Teens? and etc...

I would have to say bondage is one of my favorite elements that I incorporate into my stories. What about you?
 
I don't have a favorite category. I write well in most of them, better in others.
 
I gravitate toward writing stories that have

--a stronger more dominant hero and a less experienced, often virginal, heroine
--a loving relationship that develops between them

anything new that i haven't written before. lol i am in the most enviable position of feeling like a virgin with a choice. rofl god i love writing!!!
 
I've written in a fair number of subgenres, but I usually
involve some loving feeling between the characters. Call
it romance, if you must.
Even in my one story which was out-and-out rape, the
narrator asked his victim to "be his girlfriend."
Frankly, I can't see much satisfaction from sex if there
isn't feeling there as well. And, speaking as a man, I
find it hard to imagine a situation in which the hero has
intercourse with a woman without developing some feeling
for her.

My two cents worth.
 
Three favorites.

INcest, CElebs, & NOnconsent.

In some stories, I like to combine all three.
 
no favourites but sub-genres seem to seep into the main story. Actually, I find it tough to write in just one genre. Sex is so yummy that mixing and matching is inevitable.
 
I usually have more than one subgenre going on in what I write. It makes choosing a category tough, sometimes. I like to mix it up, and try new things.
 
Favorite category

I enjoy writing for the "Loving Wives" category. There are so many directions these stories can go. Within the dynamics of marriage it seems like all things are possible.

Whenever I think all the possibilities have been done I get a feedback email detailing some new aspect. So far, I have managed to keep my interest high and the stories coming.
 
I enjoy many of the categories at Lit, anal, BDSM, exhibitionism/voyeur, and non consent being a few, but it seems to be my track record that my stories wind up in Extreme. Which is fine, I suppose, since I seem to have a habit of having several categories in one story. At least this way I don't have to wrack my brain trying to place it somewhere. ;)

Cartoon & balloon fetishes, like I have, and beastiality stories
 
funny...

the stories I like to write differ greatly from the categories I prefer to read.
go figure.
 
category preferences

I just started erotic writing, so I'm not sure what my conceptual prefereces will be, but I know which categories I like to read. I tend to be drawn to first time experiences, specifically lesbian first time encounters, but they have to be pretty specific. I like the subjects to be as young as possible, I suppose so I can relate to the characters. I also really like the new sci-fi fantasy category. So far I've only written stories that fit under "erotic coupling," but I almost never read them because the subjects tend to be too old for me to enjoy. I find that I can only be aroused if I can imagine myself living the experience of one of the characters.
 
Nudism is nearly always a theme for me. The one exception so far didn't make it to Literotica due to the minimum word count (it was a Flash story, and those have a maximum word count of 300 or 500, depending on who you ask). I cover nudity not as an issue of humiliation, but one of liberation. Even if the character ends up embarrased or confused by the situation. :D

I also tend to tackle social issues, particularly racism, classism, and other forms of discrimination.

There's always a lot of undercurrents in there. Some of them I'm not aware of until my readers tell me about them. :D

I never write stories about rape, incest, bondage, domination, non consensual, mind control, snuff, or similar topics.

I will put in gay male charactrs, but I've not yet described a gay male sex act nor do I see myself likely to do so. It's just too far outside of my own paradigms.

I don't go for writing stroke stories. My stories aren't about sex, it just happens to be in them. I write the sex for the story, not the story for the sex.

A good portion of my work is fantasy or science fiction. Though I like to make these elements subdued. When I write it's not a story because of the fantasy or science fiction, those just happen to be elements of the story. I don't write 'gadget' stories, even my AI Girl story is not about robotics, but about humanity.

I love a lot of emotion, and I love characters who are very flawed.

I've never liked stories where all the characters are rich, classed, powerful, well hung/stacked, with perfect sex lives, professions, and so on.

My characters are often poor, beat down, confused, make the wrong choices, and so on. I don't humilate them for this as a theme, I just make them -real-.
 
I find it hard to write about something I wouldn't like to do in real life. BDSM and Lesbian Sex are uninteresting to me. Celebs I couldn't care less for. Incest and non-consent just make me feel uncomfortable.

And I'm gonna write about them all for the Survivor's Contest! Brrr....:(
 
I'm like tenyari, I try to write the ideas that come to me and try to make the characters "real" in a sense, I even wrote and essay on how to do it. I don't think I'm very successful though.

However the stories I post here are based around sex, mainly because I thought that's what people here wanted to read and hopefully Id' get some feedback on my writing, not just the stories themselves.

As for category choosing, I just write it out, usually with many "sub-genres" or themes. I usually cross several categories in each story, so it gets posted in the most suitable. My second story was intended for erotic couplings, but it was one of the first in the anal category.

What's weird though, the second chapter of my "Harem" series was posted in the fetish category, which I didn't think was appropriate at all, but it was a fisting story, so I think that's why.
