This is slightly awkward...
Apr. 21st, 2013 08:41 pm...it would appear that I have temporarily burnt out on writing sex scenes.
Or at least I'm having trouble getting any further with the one I should be writing at the moment. Okay, it's porn, and I mean porn as in True Confessions, not literotica, but there's actually a smidgen of plot in there and I feel enough interest in the characters and setting to keep my Inner Editor happy. But apparently I have run out of ways to describe the actual insert tab A in slot B bit. Even though I *want* to write this story, about these guys and what they're doing.
This is what happens if I lay off the 300 words a day for a month. :-( Had too many other things to juggle, and I was struggling with the scene anyway, and now that I have time/energy to work on it, I can't get back into it. Can't even skip this and go on to a new bit, because it's a 5 kword short (and one of the reasons for doing it is to get in some practice at writing to a specific length).
I suppose I'll have to do the other trick, which is stare at the screen each night for as long as it takes to wring out at least 50 words. That does eventually kick-start most things.
