Style... Gotta Have Style!
Do any of you have problems finding the "right words" to describe your actions or feelings in a sexual scenario when writing? Do you describe your feelings or just your actions?
I worry that I will sound trite and repetitive, and sometimes even corny. It's easy for me when it's a "fun" scene and sex isn't dignified -- when it's wonderfully wet, squishy and altogether funky -- but there are other occasions when I want to show the intensity of the emotions involved. (Please don't ask me when sex is ever dignified. I guess I meant that there are times when one writes it in a more serious mood than others.  )
Does reading other authors' writing change your own style if you look to them for "ideas"?
Comments, ideas, opinions??
