Hey Reddit, I am an aspiring author.
I’m looking to write/publish an erotic novel. Was hoping to be able to get some advice on how to make it pop. I already know that I have a VERY vivid imagination, that isn’t the issue. The problem I am having is, how to develop a BELIEVABLE storyline without it involving too much smut. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to DM me
Thanks
Destiny

This might come off as a bit cliché (and tha’s because it is) but reading is one of the most important things you can do to improve at writing. And I don’t mean reading stories on reddit. I’m talking about actual erotic novels (or novels of whatever genre you’re looking to write). There is an immense difference in the way books are structured in comparison to short stories. Read popular erotic novels and try to dissect them so you can understand what makes them click. Obviously this isn’t easy, but should you choose to go through with it, I wish you good luck!
