Sex: when is it like TMI?

Recommended Posts

My reading list is overwhelmingly non-fiction. Which is great for one writing project but not the other. I'm embarking on a piece of fiction. A coming of age journey, the charcters are mostly about 17-19 years old. Sexual discovery is part of the story. So how do you get real without writing porn? Then there is dialog, young men use some pretty language, especially among themselves.

 

Any guidence would be appreciated.

It's TMI when the participants in said sexual activity are ugly.

 

"She lifted his bulbous, weighty and protuberant belly like jelly in a colinder, and wet her fingers before finding beneath it...EVEN MORE FUXKING FAT!"

Focus on the characters' thoughts and feelings, rather than on their physical actions. How they are affected psychologically and emotionally is much more important than what they're doing and how they're doing it.

Just gloss over the sex scenes and concentrate on the catnip.

 

Fixed.

This is good advice. I can only lamely add: Tell the reader what they need to know. Anything more is superfluidfluous.

But that's easier said than done.

 

When in doubt, consult the masters:
