How’s your sex scene? Is it steamy or flat? Do you go into too much description or not enough? There’s nothing worse than reading a sex scene where you can tell the writer is uncomfortable with it.
To write a sex scene that ensnares the read you’ve got to be comfortable. If you read the scene again does it inspire you or just make you laugh. You’ve got to put some gusto in it if you want it to dialate the readers eyes. Don’t look like that, isn’t that what a reader of sexy romance wants.
With all the hoopla about BDSM and erotica if you can’t do a simple sex scene and get it right, then go read some examples and try again. Now if you write a cleaner romance then you may not want to add a huge heat level to it, but you still need to draw in the reader and add a little excitement.
When describing the sexual partners go into detail about their body. If he has washboard abs then say so. The reader needs to know what their imagining. It helps to enhance the experience. If your reader feels like they are there you’ve acheived your goal.
Don’t be embarassed. If you’re writing heated romance you’ve got to get over that part. You’re writing it for the reader to experience it. Don’t be afraid to try out the sex scene with your partner and then turn around and write it from experience. 😉 it helps, trust me…
Have a good time with your sex scene and enhance your sex life at home…
