Why did you start writing erotica? Why do you continue writing erotica?

Sorry, need more inspiration. Have either of you actually read the story? It features Olympic athletes, Dynasty Warriors characters, and a street chase in Tina-men Square. Not sure how I’d take that to Tokyo. Though Samurai Warriors and Yakuza are good possibilities. Hmm.

I’ll think about how I can make it flow. Please send conversation if you have ideas.
Oh, absolutely no idea. Just liked "Beijing Streakers" as a title. It's crying out to be a band name.
 
I was writing science fiction. When I was horny, which was most of the time back then, I would write whole paragraphs where everything went in a sexual direction, and then after getting some release, I'd delete the paragraphs and continue the story. It turned me on more to have characters I knew in those situations.

I suppose it was another way to explore fantasies I'd masturbate to. That was decades ago, and if there were sources of explicit erotica in those days, I didn't know how to access them.

As for why I continue to write; I've been away a couple of years and returned to find my computer not working, so i don't. Unless I can fix it, I'll have to buy a new one. Since I do everything I used to use a computer for on my smartphone these days, except for writing, I think I've returned to this forum to determine whether I'm still interested enough to spend hundreds of pounds on a new computer, with all the hassle of setting it up and learning to use it. So, I'm here looking to be inspired. I've been enjoying some of the stories here, and the discussions.

I see. Well, the story concerned a celebrity fanfic streaking incident at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. A conspiracy of athletes teamed up to do something crazy and some Chinese heroes working for an Illuminati-type secret society had to rescue them. It was fun to write at the time. Considering the lead character of the story was later at the Tokyo Olympics in both RL & my fictional universe, there are possibilities for the sequel you describe. The thing is, I'm not sure about inspiration and fan attention. Give it a week or two to gestate. If you and other fans want to check out the original story I did on my member page (link below), maybe some other stories also, and give me a few extra ratings, my confidence might increase. I don't want to spoil the story more or heavily advertise it here, so I'm just going to encourage people to check it out based on our mutual enthusiasm. Thx in advance.
 
I'd never entertained the desire to write, my efforts at school being at best mediocre, but 4 years ago, the sexual chemistry with my long term gf began to ebb. She was very conservative and didn't communicate her needs at all well, if she had any. I thought if I wrote an erotic story, fictional but plausible, with the intention of allowing her to consider potential role play, it would allow her the excuse to experiment and develop her sexual expression. I would like to say the story was a hit and our relationship reached a new, dynamic high, but though she thought the story and the characters 'hot', was unable to break out of her inhibited state and 3 years later we split up. The process of creative writing though, awakened in me a desire to write more erotic stories, probably because my sexual fantasies could not be broached with my gf. My stories were romantic, not particularly kinky, but I tried to be creative and develop the characters and describe the environment to fill out the story with a realism which would add plausibility to the plot. Literotica provided me the platform to 'publish' my stories and gauge my performance, each story becoming easier to pen and longer and more detailed, the hardest part being to include the characters conversations, which my first story lacked entirely, the plot being told in the third person. My last story is by far the most ambitious but I've yet to publish. I feel a bit empty following my breakup and my fire has gone out. Stay tuned though! It will appear at some point, if only to set back story telling to a new low!

The very first piece of erotica that I wrote, at about the age of... 15-16... was so I could read it and jerk off. Didn't have the internet then... so I made my own story. Zero character development, just 'action'.... exploring a whole bunch of concepts.

But basically when a hard drive failure killed that story, I didn't write more...

Til a few years ago when I started publishing on sexstoriespost/forum... but that's another story.
 
I started writing erotica as a teenager in the 60s. For the money. Met a guy in Washington Square who was paying $1 per page for smut. I guess he was short of imagination and needed sex scenes to rewrite and string together for his porn novels. It was fun, too, but I stopped when I went to University, except for erotic poetry with a rather practical aim. Didn't start again until the early days of the millennium when a girlfriend suggested I should commit my little stories for her to paper. Now I mostly write for the pleasure of pleasing some anonymous (and, twice, not-so-anonymous) women. I do find it fun.

$1 per page? In the 60s? Send him my way; I have a bridge to sell him.

I'm sure he did better with it. That was, of course, a standard Pica font typeset, 250 words per page, and he only took quality detail. Moondog used to get a quarter for a mimeographed page of his poems from street sales; that worked out a lot better than $1 a page, single sale.

But that's $10 today after inflation. That's insane. I just can't wrap my mind around this, lol.

Sorry, maybe NYC wasn't like where you were. I took a clerical job on Wall Street when I started University, and my starting salary was $120 for a 35-hour week, and that was a hell of a lot better than the buck I got for every couple of hours writing porn. And the 10$ seems just about right. I occasionally sell a story that the publisher edits, and that gets me $150 for 3,000 words ($10.25 per 250-word page.)
