Let's talk about...

...porn. About writing porn, actually. And why I'm sort of bad at it in isolation. Okay, really damn bad. Seriously. *uses appropriate/inappropriate icon*

I'm sorta the same with porn. I can sort of write PWP but I end up putting at least enough plot to make it seem more reasonable, you know?

[giving_ground]

Yeah. Same, when I used to write things which were vaguely PWP-ish more often. These days 'enough to make it seem reasonable' seems to end up being a 10,000 word fic for a few hundred words of sex. Halp.

[firescribble]

Not complaining. I'm sooo not complaining. <3

[giving_ground]

LAST TIME? 14,000 WORDS OR WHAT THE HELL EVER IT WAS, AND. Haha, that fic probably didn't deserve its NC-17 rating, only the porn that it DID contain was so ouchy that. Uh.

[yuki_scorpio]

For that word count, there should've been 21 and a half sex scenes.

[giving_ground]

You had that covered in your fic. 8)

[yuki_scorpio]

It tried, but didn't quite get there, unfortunately.

We should work out an optimal % of words in a fic that should be sex. For every 1000 words, at least x should be porn.

[firescribble]

I do remember, I was there for the process, remember? -_- AND I STILL LOVE THAT FIC. NOW GO WRITE SOME COCK IN ASS FOR IT.

[giving_ground]

Err. Yes. I suppose forgetting would take years of therapy. -_- AND I WOULD IF I COULD.

[firescribble]

I think we've been over this a couple of times. Liz + writing angst = fun for Val

[giving_ground]

Mhm. Fun like a hole in the head! Actually that one pained me so much that I had to share the suffering at least in part with, like, everyone I regularly talk to on IM. -_-

[firescribble]

It was rather spectacular, even by your standards.

[giving_ground]

Such a Tortured Artiste. Sometimes I want to smack me. XD

[firescribble]

You know where I am if you need help with that >)

[giving_ground]

Oh darling. *g*
