We feel *very* seen by this. Any other bloggers relate to needing to write even if you don't end up publishing what you create because the words need to get out of you SOMEHOW and writing is how you process everything? https://t.co/efAp9FTyoS

Looking for prompts that make you think about yourself in new ways? Ready to develop an introspective writing practice? '31 Days of Self Reflection' asks you in-depth questions to help you explore who you are as both a writer and a sexual being: https://t.co/jsGIDOdIn8

"Something about this silly-looking, less-pretentious font enables us to let go of overly obsessing over our writing while it’s in progress."

Today's writing tip is to try switching your font to Comis Sans - it can (apparently!) help you write faster: https://t.co/Cdfzg19vJk

What sexy words do you struggle to find good synonyms for?

Do you find yourself googling the synonyms for 'aroused' when you're writing erotica? Do you like to using flowery synonyms for genitals? Do you worry that you're using the word 'hard' or 'dick' too much in your smut?

What do you need to start self-hosting your sex blog? Two things:

1) A domain name like https://t.co/uKQhYEpyXv (only not that one obviously) and privacy.

2) A hosting company that is cool with adult content, if your content is adult oriented in ANY way. https://t.co/fj5n35OJFd

Go drop @loveisafetish some links to the favourite erotica you've written recently!

You're never going to write a perfect first draft. You can edit blog posts before publishing or tear up pages before anyone sees them, but until you WRITE SOMETHING then you can't make it better. Give yourself permission to write badly - it might not be as bad as you think it is.

[obsceneideas @obsceneideas]

"I tell myself that I’m going to do my five or ten pages no matter what, and that I can always tear them up the following morning if I want. I’ll have lost nothing — writing and tearing up five pages would leave me no further behind than if I took the day off.”

If mainstream bookshops *did* dedicate more space to Erotic Fiction (which we really think they should!), what books would you like to see on their shelves?

[Exhibit A @EA_unadorned]

Says a lot about its current health as a genre that Foyles, probably the most impressive mainstream bookshop in Central London (sorry Waterstones Piccadilly) and spread across five floors - one of which is solely fiction - devotes precisely this much space to Erotic Fiction.

[CG Drews @PaperFury]

Writers either know exactly what they’re doing or they have no idea at all, and if it works out they just sit there very pleased with themselves.

[obsceneideas @obsceneideas]

"The more you focus on the ideas you don’t have and the limited writing time you do have, the more the internal pressure builds. It’s like a boiling pot. At first, you don’t notice the heating rising, and then it’s bubbling over everywhere making a mess."

You don't have to write every day to be a "real" writer. Write when you can, even if that's just 15 minutes or you're only able to type a few lines in the notes app of your phone while you're in the bathroom. You don't need hours of uninterrupted time every day to write.

[Counts As Writing @CountsAsWriting]

Today, falling apart a little counts as writing.

[obsceneideas @obsceneideas]

If you need some ideas to keep the smutty juices flowing, you should definitely grab one of our workbooks. Remember that you can also link up your writing inspired by our prompts in the Obscene Ideas community to share it with others. https://t.co/mq4ngT2fKG

[obsceneideas @obsceneideas]

We love seeing your writing that's inspired by our prompts! This seriously filthy piece of erotica from @_floss_84 was inspired by a prompt in '31 Days of Erotic Fiction' - which contains 31 unique prompts designed to spark all sorts of obscene ideas.

Question of the day: Do you get turned on by your own writing?

Do you get aroused when writing? Do you find yourself getting wet or hard when re-reading your own smutty words? Or does the effort that you put in to make your work good (and sexy!) take the hotness out of it?

[obsceneideas @obsceneideas]

"I used to read a lot of writing advice from big name authors about the importance of writing every day. I wasn’t a “real” writer because I didn’t write every day."

We loved @annacod's newsletter this week - you don't have to write every day to be good! https://t.co/0gs8AvgL6y

[obsceneideas @obsceneideas]

Do you struggle with writing the end of a piece of erotica? Do you have any tips for people who find it hard?

[Quinn Rhodes (he/him) @OnQueerStreet]

I'm so bad at writing the last line of a piece of smut.
