I know there’s a few erotic fiction writers here on the boards, and now I’ve got some free time over the holidays I’m trying to learn a bit more about different writing styles and genres and I figured that erotic fiction is as good a place as any to start.
Anyway, if I might beg your indulgences to help clarify a few things.
-
Where do you get your ideas from? Do you base them on things you’ve actually tried yourself, things you’ve heard your friends talk about, or just stuff you’ve thought up yourself?
-
Is there a particular “style” you lean towards? For example, do you prefer to use “creative” (or “poetical”) terms, or do you prefer a more… unvarnished approach?
-
What got you into it in the first place?
-
What do you get out of it it? (ie, is it purely personal enjoyment, or do you enjoy getting the feedback from readers?)
-
Do you think the “best” erotic fiction comes from male or female authors?
Thanks in advance for what I hope will be an enlightening and entertaining discussion!
