Writing outside your experiences

I saw this reality tv show about a hair salon in the uk, and they had to perform a "back, crack and sack" wax. Excruciating is the word that comes to mind.

Good luck!

Same thing was on a Jackass rerun a few days ago. Sounds like that'äs where it belongs.

Wots wrong with a shave?

Too time-consuming, not close enough, and the pain is partly a good thing, as it's a bdsm piece.

She's doing it to make his perfectly spankable, and if it's not perfectly smooth, it's not perfect. Plus, the story action is supposed to be started by her needing to let off steam from a bad/frustrating day at work. It seems to me waxing would be more of a way to get anger out and effectively de-hair his ass at the same time than the somewhat tedious business of shaving.

Right at this moment I'm also in no position to eroticize shaving.

See this. And this.

Thanks for the links, and I will read them; I just meant that right now I have a five o'clock shadow in a rather uncomfortable spot, so it's hard to think of it that way. Give it another day of two to recover from razor burn trauma and stubble itch and I'll be ready to think of it as sexy again.

I very rarely do any research when I'm writing. I think that's for two reasons -

One, I like my imagination.

Two, my writing style rarely demands it. Research is for factual details, like how deep a subway tunnel is (I had to look that one up, it's in one of my novels) and my stories very rarely contain that sort of detail. I write the same way that I read and I skip over those parts of other books, so I don't write them into mine.

If you're writing about human behaviour, you probably don't need to research anything at all. Use your imagination, and remember - There's 6 billion different people in this world, with 6 billion different personalities. For every person you meet that says 'That character would never react that way to that," you can find an equivalent person that says 'Well, I did when it happened to me.'

It's all imagination - That's why we're writers - Because we have fertile imaginations (apparently)

In your case, feel free to describe the sensations however you like. Like I said, for every person that says 'you got it wrong', you'll find someone that will say 'you got it right'

Kind of guessed that. For something more exotic, how about a controlled burn? I did some circus tricks with fire a while back. Spititng flames, juggling torches, and of course - for show - dragged the flames over my arms.

It took five years to get some kind of hair back on some spots.

Are you serious?

Is that why you like... um... like that? In your AV... No! Not the geese.
