Hi everyone; I have joined and seeking advice on properly writing a sex scene in a story and knowing when to put it in a story.
... and make sure to use the word "throbbing" as much as possible.
Damn! That's where I've been going wrong.![]()

Writing sex is kind of like having sex. When all the stars line up then it happens. Forcing it just make everything awkward in more ways than one.![]()

You can try alternating "throbbing" with "pulsing" for effect.
My take from years of experience of writing for Literotica:
The sex scenes should be an essential part of the story and necessary for the plot. 'Insert sex scene here' doesn't work well for me. If the story works without the sex then it isn't really an erotic story.
So I ask myself:
Why are they having sex?
Why are they having sex now?
What does having sex mean to them?
How does the sex change the relationship between them? Does it make the partnership stronger? Or tell them that it isn't going anywhere?
But I still get it wrong...![]()
Try putting it in when your characters have sex. It could be awkward otherwise.
Hey, grats on your contest win by the way. I'm finally getting to read to the contest stories, yours is really well written.
