For those who don't know me, I was active about a year ago, and amassed a decent following for my own story, Being More Social, before I was forced to take it down. While in the process of writing a second series, one which could actually be displayed by this website given its rules, I've looked into how other people write smut and come across a lot of guides. Almost universally they bear the title 'how to write a good porn story,' and they usually boil down to opinion (like, 'you should always include the guy doing this to the girl' or 'the characters should be dressed like this'). QED, they don't help at all. Frankly, especially when it comes to smut if you ask me, a better guide would be 'how to write a bad one,' since badness in stories involving sex seem to revolve around tropes that should be removed, not a lack of tropes that should have been added. For this reason, I've decided amidst my new series to write this short, incredibly informal essay, 'How to write a terrible sex story.' (This is also going to contain a lot of opinion, but I hope more of this is universal opinion, ergo helpful.) Some of you may think I'm being a prick for outlining tropes in stories other writers have used, and frankly, yeah, I'm probably being quite the prick. Nevertheless, my works in the past have earned me an incredibly valuable resource - readers so dedicated they would read my content on other sites. For that reason, I'm gonna toot my own horn enough to presume I have the right ... to say what makes a terrible sex story, and proceed. If you wanna downvote me due to how arrogant I'm being, you know where the button is. Let's start off with an elementary point you'd assume everyone knows - the look of the story. A surprising number of writers across all websites don't really care how their story looks, assuming that content would make up for it. Yeah, sorry, no. I Don't Know About You, But This Makes A Story Hard To Read. THIS MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I CAN'T TAKE THE STORY SERIOUSLY. I CAN'T HELP BUT FEEL LIKE THE STORY WAS WRITTEN BY AN OVER-ENTHUSED 12-YEAR-OLD. When a story has unnecessary breaks... It makes it seem to have a stutter... and it disrupts how a reader reads your story. Styles like that take a reader out of a story. Suddenly the story isn't about its content - readers are too focussed on how it's written, not what is written, and that's not something you want. Over-excessive punctuation in dialogue is another big one. ' "Really?!?!!!" she asked. ' This makes a story sillier on a whole, especially if it's used constantly. Grammar, spelling, and overall flow counts too, but I imagine it's something everyone already looks for. Ultimately, things you need to watch out for are writing tropes wherein people notice more how you write instead of what you did. When in doubt, have an editor. I know having an editor seriously helped me, and I'm only human - I've made a lot of stylistic mistakes. For example, I used to repeat an existing noun or verb in ...
