More consensual realistic stories please

[somewriter]

Realism is something I've been working on in my recent stories, both realistic characterisation (very hard!) and fairly realistic scenarios (with a little dramatic licence). They are all fairly consensual. I'd love your comments on how to improve in this regard Sweep (and others).

Are you looking for feedback on one story or all of them? Please post a link to your stories on the Library and feel free to open a new thread in the "Author's Place" with any specific questions you might want answered, or things you'd like to see reviewed.

I'm hesitant to write the next part, mainly because I dont think that I can keep that feeling of the events being realistic once it moves into "sex".

This is definately something I find to be very frustrating. Especially personally as I feel more comfortable writing things that are romantic vs "hot"

Hang in there, sheepish!

Some of the most romantic and hot scenes I've ever read skipped writing about the actual sex. They built the tension, took the reader for a ride and "then they kissed like there was no tomorrow" and ended the chapter leaving the actual act to the reader's imagination.

Do what's best for your story and your comfort level. Your readers will thank you.
