@InvidiaRed Moving the thread…. It’s fun, though it’s very easy to suddenly find myself with a minor1 tag in an otherwise family friendly environment. Guess I’m more of a closet wannabe nudist, so that’s why it comes out in my stories; heck, even my potter fanfics had nudity, and those protagonists being okay with (& enjoying) it. Sure, I’ve done the research into nudist colony etiquette, typical rules for those types of places into today’s world, and they state “no-sexuality”, with consequences (how well they’re enforced can be a different matter), but I definitely don’t want to ignore that aspect of human behavior, because I don’t think it’s realistic to utterly suppress it, especially if you’ve got kids/teenagers around; I also try not to over saturate with it, either. With Jeff, as I’ve explored him going nudist, he’s had to weigh how society perceives nudity and sexuality; something that’s pretty much true today. It’s a bit easier to force the introspection with males as they get an erection in a public setting, even in a clothed setting if it’s noticed; where it can be a point of bullying/teasing, teaching boys to be ashamed of it, to hide it, to pretend it doesn’t happen, to not play with it, and then wonder why boys have troubles later on expressing their feelings. I gave Jeff the benefit of being able to explore this in a free-range environment, to occasionally swing to being sexual when he feels like it – there’re naked, after all. And so with Jaimie, I deliberately had his parents see the camp, so when it comes to raising him, they decide to basically free-range him, using the cost of diapers as an excuse, with Daisy as his primary babysitter. So, Jaimie, at his young age where I start his story, simply doesn’t comprehend the sexuality side, just wants to be the human that he is. Thus, I introduce him (apart from the birth scene) going to his first day of kindergarten – which is why I could start that story with the word “penis”, focusing on the feature the teacher notices as he enters the classroom. Jaimie, simply wanting to be naked at his innocent age, causes issues … like, he needs to be able to swim, so in trying to get him a swimming instructor leads to developing Jeff’s character, because i needed one willing to work with a naked child. Risley, Ifor, and Grant were kinda forced to go naked, and they grew to like it. Dale being bullied into being naked at the start; eventually bringing Jarred along. Alyssia and Konnor, their own story. I’m kinda sensing a pattern. Of course, maybe I just like naked main characters….

Episode #18 is up. I go to proofread, and ended up adding a sexual scene….

Aside from the challenge aspect, its starting the focus on a particular detail to the main character before “zooming out” to portray the entire boy. So, that’s another way to start a scene, fixate on a (small) detail first.

And more palatable to those needing softer foods. Nah… Jeff’s more useful alive than dead at the moment, and carries on my tradition of having main characters who prefer going naked.

I had a quote before it, but yeah, it started off with the word “penis”. Though, it wasn’t sexual.

Make it a rule to start off… dunno, part of the body. I know I had one story where I tried to start it off with the word “penis”….

Start every scene off with a little bit of

@Tcr I’ve noticed that these parties tend to happen when I’m asleep… I hadn’t really thought about my scenes being repetitive, but given it’s the same author, likely. I kinda treat them the same as a story, a sort of micro-plot, introduce the relevant character, usually the same one or two, and go for an early hook; usually setting it up in the first sentence.

I know authors have the right to pull down their works, but it still feels like book burning, makes me sad.

Jefferey, ep 15? Fifty shades is not a stranger to this archive…. Use research if you want, though trying to find the niche that’ll take off after you finish a book, that’s tricky. When I’m low on ideas, I’ll use random generators to give something for the brain to start mulling over. Choose some words at random, or maybe a place title, or a random name of a character. Sometimes, paradoxically, narrowing down the choices can help you choose, or at least, give you a place to start thinking.
