With a word, a song, an image, thought, or fantasy of some hot babe/stud. Tell us what you want to write and I'm sure no one would be opposed to giving you inspirations.

Tasteful and erotic isn't a theme for a story, love. You need a character and the character needs a goal. I'm bad a grammar, but you are worse, so also consider an editor in your venture. Good vibes and much luck. CH

You might be trying to write a vignette. This post might be pertinent to your dilemma.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

You can tell these stupid shits 1000 times that if they have a story in mind there would be no writer's block, and they dont get it.

One more time assclowns: Your hero wants something he cant get at the Quickie Mart, someone else wants the same thing or opposes your hero getting it or there are other obstacles in the way; so your hero has to exhaust all his resources and go for a Hail Mary pass or confront his nemesis in the arena, and he prevails or he loses or he discovers the whole deal was bullshit from the beginning.

I'm incredibly non-creative and I'm imaginatively challenged. I also don't have a lot of experience in writing since I tend to hate every word the second I express it.

But, I have had limited success in trying to express history. Sometimes it's easier to write what you know and have experienced and then embellish that.

Another option might be to have someone "inspire" you. While I've not applied it to stories, I've had lots of success writing computer code and building machinery when I've had people there to bounce things off of in real time. I think there is also an element of showing off that inspires people to push themselves a bit further than they would otherwise. A lot of my best work has been proceeded by my giggling like a little schoolgirl and everyone standing back and asking what I'm about to do.

It either ends with oohs and aahs or tears and lots of smoke.

Why in fuck dont you just learn to write?

What JBJ was saying is true, but it takes a bit of work to make it happen.

First, there is the inspiration. SO what was the inspiration, an image of a girl?
What is she doing? who is she doing it to? Why is she doing it?

Next is the plot that leads the reader through the answers. Not telling them but SHOWING them. This is the hard part for me.

Then you can sit down and plan the story. Outlines are good but make it on the computer because Characters never can stick to the script. Suddenly you will have to change the outline.

Now, if it is First Person, put yourself in her 'thong' and tell the story.

Practice and think about language, culture, ass fucking, whatever and write.

Your first story will not win any prizes but when you see it in glowing phosphors on the Literotica page, you'll get wet, or hard.

something can be done tasefully and still be erotic. i dont want it just to be some fuck and suck stor with out a plot, that rambles about uncreatively. i would like to work a vibe.
does that make sense ?

I'm thinking dialogue and wording and dearie your entirely too angry. who's in charge of your morning blowjob ?





in point:
i have had a bunch of different ideas, but getting them into frutation is an entirely different matter.
i think my problem might be that i might be cramming it all together at once.
still not sure.

So start at a point that inspired you and write.

After you have that down, write an opening line that grabs the reader, then lead the reader into the "good parts".

BUT Write something!

The inspiration comes at the very end of your story...the punchline, the gag, then you work backwards. The end is always what you want to discover. With an end you know where youre going. Every painter, sculptor, architect, and cook knows what waits at the end.

Dyslectic reverse engineering. What an interesting way to write.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

TEX

It works as well as the template you use, where every story is the same except for the names. As long as you dont lose the phonebook you crank out more crap than Sue Grafton.

 

[colddiesel]

Your first post is less than three full lines but has seven or eight basic errors in it. Why would anyone want to help you if you are so bone idle you cannot straighten a simple post out!

My tip. Start at the top left hand corner and write 2000 words a day, day after day after day. Writing is about hard graft not inspiration. When you've written 100,000 words, you might realise that all it is about is telling a story

Now toddle off and write and leave the cranky old bastards around here in peace.

You know as much about writining as you do wanking.

Suggesting that Doofus crank out 2000 words a day, every day, is like suggesting musicians compose 2000 bars of notes every day, or painters dab their canvas 2000 times.

You gotta have a story to tell, and you gotta know where your story's going. Like this one I read last night:

Louis L'Amour wrote a story about treasure hunting...he coulda been hunting pussy, but in this story he was hunting lost treasure. And he had to steal a boat, and survive a storm at sea, and find water to drink, and find the sunken ship the treasure was aboard, and avoid a nasty shark, and avoid the perils of diving, and cope with all the violence that erupted after he found the treasure. And in the end he had the gold and everyone was dead, and he went off hunting for some pussy to give the money to. The ending woulda been better if some old whore poisoned him and took his money or whatever. But it was a story, kind of a sex story.

I defer to your greater experience as a wanker but at least I can spell writing.

Of course Doofus isn't going to crank out 2000 words a day but even if you do have a story to tell and the underlying talent to do it, you still need to practice the craft.

At least my advice would keep Doofus occupied a while.

 

[JackLuis]

Ok. how is this?

Write and ending.

Write the opening.

Fill in the "Conflicts and partial achievements".

Have the girl give a marvelous blow job and


"Now where was that ending?"

Seriously BambiLenoir, Write a viginette, a bit of what your idea is. Look at how it fits in a 'Life'. Is it worth the effort to continue or not?

Get another idea and do the same.

Now tell a story with the ideas, run spell check on it, get someone else who hates you to read it and then, after you have corrected it, publish it here and wait for the criticism, praise, or lack of votes.

It is a crap shoot and can be nerve racking, but I do learn form the process.

.....

Well, I can't decide if Helmut Newton's photos are tasteful or erotic. If they're erotic, they're not tasteful (to me), as they're tasteful (in the common mind), they're not erotic (to me).

Just kill Mr. Helmut Newton in your head and go to fuck one of his girls into reality. This will definitely be erotic. Your writing block is because you can't imagine that such tasteful girls can do such dirty things.

 

[My I]

I've been away from writing for a few years. I recently decided to try again and heeded some of my own advice: Don't bite off more than you can chew.

What I mean here is that you may not want to try to write an entire short story right out of the gate. Start with something short and simple and build up to something bigger.

What I did was this; I've been playing Vampire Wars on FaceBook for a while and started leaving vote comments that were a little on the steamy side. The comments themselves are very short but the challenge of them is huge. There is a 300 character limit on these comments, that's CHARACTERS not WORDS. So the real challenge is conveying your picture in a very short piece.

Some examples:

The first rays of dawn chase us through the graveyard and into a mausoleum. Our clothes smoking as we peel them off laughing at our desperate run. You fall into my arms nipping at shoulder. I stroke your hair and turn your head to expose your neck and offer my own. Smoldering Bloody Kisses. :*

A trickle of blood runs from your neck down between us, another runs from mine. They combine and smear between us making slurping, sucking sounds as our bodies separate and collide again. We laugh and lick at each other’s skin enjoying every drop and every sensation. Giggling Bloody Kisses. :*

Your claws rake my back. Your legs squeezing the breath from me, and your bare skin feels like fire on mine. Your head tilts to get a better angle on my neck, exposing your own. The ruse has worked and the reward was worth the pain. Cunning Bloody Kisses. :*

A few of these have inspired slightly longer vignettes and a couple are growing into full stories.

Try starting with a 300 character micro first. It will help teach you to focus and will whet your appetite for writing.

For a vignette a plot is not wort thinking about. Who they are and why they are doing what they're doing is not the point. It's merely a scene. Try to work up to that first and try to keep it less than 450 WORDS.

By the time you finish two or three vignettes you should be fairly comfortable with the writing. Then go for something around 1000 words with dialogue. Frm there just keep stretching and you'll be a star in no time.

And as far as the negative posts here, just ignore them. Most of them knew less than you when they wrote their first piece and don't know a hell of a lot more now. But they think since they have a couple stories that got posted on a website they must be the next Jackie Collins.

Write what you like and don't worry too much about your grammar and spelling right off the bat. That will improve as you go.

Hope that helps more than some of the overstuffed shirts above.
