How many of you on here written scenes of a choice nature?

If that's a euphemism for shagging, then the answer's no.

A quick snog and that's about it.

Yes that is a euphemism for shagging. You're from England aren't you?

Oh, I absolutely wouldn't have gotten that! Why not just write 'sex scene'? That's not forbidden on the forum, is it? Anyway, to answer your question, I have written quite a few of them (just wrapped up one yesterday but it and the previous one need editing as I'm not entirely satisfied with it) as you are well aware.

Why? Are you trying to write your first one and need advice?

I am going to be. In "Never Shall We Die". But not for some time yet.

*Draws self up indignantly* England!?!?!? Madam! I am from Scotland and proud of it. *Mutters* England indeed... The nerve of some people...

I meant you must speak British English. Sorry...

I've written my fair share of sex scenes. Okay, well, maybe more than my fair share.

This one will be the first one I write on my own.

So, why were you asking? Do you need tips/advice or were you just being curious? Did you co-write your previous sex scene(s) with someone else?

Basically I did this: I gave them the parameters of what I'd like and told them to do what they wanted with it. The chapter "A Long Time Coming" is currently the only descriptive sex scene that's in my stories.

WhyteWhytch recced a book for me to help write the scene on my own. The title is "Be a Sex Writing Strumpet". I just need to get some money together so I can buy it on my kindle.

Why didn't you try to write it yourself? Or didn't it work out and that's when you turned to someone else to write it for you?

By the way, I've never heard of 'strumpet' before so thanks for helping me expand my vocabulary!

[Amara D'Angeli]

My best advice is to just write the scene. Get it on paper. Then, when you're done, let it sit for a few days. Read it over with fresh eyes and see if it reads true. If it does, then you're money. Avoid cliche and superhuman feats of sexuality - they're dead give aways that you're new to sex writing. And, when in doubt, write about what you like - then you're sure ring true.

You're welcome.

At that time, I was still getting around the mind block of writing it. I tried writing it on my own but it didn't turn out how I wanted it to in my head. Now I want to try my hand at them.

It won't be over the top. I'm not even remotely sure what I want to do just yet.

Hi everyone.

[SF_and_Coffee]

I've written one or two. No, that's not a euphemism -- I've seriously written only one or two. Was petrified to try... but they turned out all right. One of them is in ATWLB, in Chapter 22 on my site. (The chapter itself is a bit of a spoiler for one aspect of the story, but it's minor in that what it spoils is really something by which no one who's glanced at the story's word count should really be surprised.)

I'll second this, as it's basically what I did, except that I took my "what I like" experience and turned it around so that I could write the scene from the guy's POV.

I'll take that advice into account, but I'm still going to try and get a hold of that book WW recced.

Write what you like, but I would add something to this, find a guy, Preferably IRL, and one you TRUST, and ask THEM their opinion.
