Generally it goes like this:
1)An idea occurs. Usually it's very rough, revolving around a single scene, image or perhaps even a line of dialogue. It will grow and become masturbation fodder as it take shape in my head more and more until I decide "I have to get this down on paper"
2) Then there is a lot of Procrastination. As well as masturbating
3) Finally I begin to write it long hand on a legal pad, generally on the bus, or outside under tree on my break from work, whilst chain smoking and listening to NPR on my headphones. This usually takes a long time, because almost in variably, another idea with occur around this point distracting me. However when I'm lucky, I'll get hot and write until my hand cramps up.
5) More procrastination, more masturbating
6) I've finished the story long hand. I'm satisfied with it enough that I want to type it up. Usually this part involves lots of changes to the original draft. Honing fleshing out details. Often a lot gets altered in this part.
7) Once it's done, I re-read it to myself, checking to make sure it flows and to make corrections. Invariably I miss things.
8) submit it to Lush, and wait in agony for it to go up or be rejected.
9) Once it's been approved, sigh in relief and wait for it inevitably to be overshadowed by the work of more talented writers.
I know there are prohibitions against referencing anything underage, so I will word my question carefully: WITHOUT saying how old you were, do you recall the first thing that came along and got you titillated and interested in sex?
As a child of the 90s, mine, crazy as it may sound, was The Addams Family movies. You had Angelica Houston wearing that gorgeous, tight dress, looking pale and beautiful saying things like "Gomez, last night you were unhinged. You like some desperate, howling demon. You frightened me...do it again." And her moaning in ecstasy as Raul Julia frantically pawed and kissed her. It made me very interested and very curious in just what they were talking about.
Does anyone else remember what first did it for them?
So, when do we learn about the next one? lol. I am sure I can't be the only person eager to start working on seeing my hopes dashed by those far more talented then I.5GOuyfQs9E6fNS0E
I am surprised no one has said they'd make him watch lol
Just to reiterate, this is just a hypothetical question about how you'd react. I personally don't believe woman are prizes to be gambled with.
Going slowly insane waiting for the news! I don't expect to win, but it'll still be a relief just to know for sure. placing in the top 10 would be a thrill. :-)
Am I the only one feeling completely blindsided by the decision to remove All fantasy stres without any prior warning?
