I find myself clicking on the most obviously poorly written titles/subtitles/synopses, just so I can mentally shake my head at the inane drivel to follow and feel better about myself.

24 hour clocks and Metric. As a civilian American, neither comes intuitively to me. But, I wish both did. And I know both would, if I was forced to adjust. This change would be welcome to me. In general.

Your reader will have to fill in *whatever* you write with their imagination. Allow them to do that. Fruit and sports balls are very specific mental images for a reader to try and overcome, and fill breasts in place of. Not to beat a dead horse of my personal preference, but that way of...

I honestly don't like fruit, sports balls, etc. very much. Though, I don't like bra sizes either. I've seen it done, and it doesn't sound right, to me. But, that could just be me. I try to find other ways to fit it in - flat, modest, large, bouncy, aging, youthful, perky, torpedo, and other...

Welcome. This site is formatted amazingly for writers. Very easy access, extremely versatile, and not at all greedy.

I'd say your 'girl with a penis' is probably the better (not so) extreme, if you can't break the cycle. I'd also say (without actually reading your writing) that you're probably over thinking the differences, and losing confidence where you don't need to.

Some great observations in here, really (I like Xenolan's #7). But, I also feel like it's information overload. Get a little into your head what your *character* is about, what makes them tick, and you don't have to worry about any male/female stuff except organs. Because, you should have a...

My chapters are super long these days... 20-35 pages... and with continual edits as I write, take me forever to write. So, I post right away. Often with a primal scream of release.

Squick - combination of 'squeamish' and 'ick'. It's a very informal word, so feel free to use as an adjective, verb, noun... Anything that makes your brain feel dirty - and not the good kind of dirty - just for having seen or even thought of it. Anything that makes you yell *PURGE FOOL...

Well, I'm assuming you don't want to do the non-con Stockholm route... cause that answers most of your questions... She's got powers, right? How about she rescues some broad? She's shapeshifted, she reveals herself, super embarrassed, expecting the worst reaction... and her new friend is into...

When I started writing, I deliberately chose a site (CHYOA) with hard rules on what is not allowed in order to check myself - knowing I'd go overboard otherwise. I fantasize about being 'recognized', after I plan to publish my current story. I've given a couple IRL friends, and my (then...

It makes sense to (have an option to) use this space.

Non-nudists Stranded in a nudist resort, or on some kind of nudist island, would add some tension - would give it a bit of backbone. Extra tension if it's several people stuck that wouldn't necessarily (like to) see each other naked normally. Family certainly works for this if you like the...

There would need to be a specific mechanism for that rejection. The egg wouldn't simply 'not acknowledge' viable semen - wherever it came from.

I strongly believe that sex scenes can be among the most mechanically/physically/action *as well as* emotionally/spiritually difficult scenes to write well in all of literature, considering their layered (and real) importance. Sex is one of those things where reality can become uncommonly...
