Telling a Story
Have you ever wondered what drives a story?
Seriously, think you can write a good story, that isn’t just a collection of words, but which gets people horny, or makes them think about life?
You know, I have been doing this for some time, and frankly I rather enjoy the stories I write, but lately it has been a struggle. Not sure if it simplywhat they call writer’s block, or something else.
Some will say that their works are driven by personal experiences, but in all honesty, just how many writers are also spending every second experiencing some sexual rapture? Like unless they are 20 something, or take some sex pill every day, the odds are that it is all made up, or a work taken from their dreams, or wishful thinking?
Okay, maye some do write with some basis of fact, but it is certainly embelished, otherwise it just simply doesn’t sell. Maybe that is part of the whole problem, we expect the stories we read to do nothing but fuel our fantasies, rather than be realistic.
Perhaps that is my problem, I want to tell a story, not just find new ways to get a stiffy, to make the reader get horny. I mean there has to be more to life, to fiction. Even in our dreams, don’t we want them to be based on what could be? I mean how likely is it that a guy who is fat, weighs a ton, is going to get some skinny twink to be their sex toy?
Do we think that ‘if only’ we could? Or does it simply feed into our need to be aroused, to escape reality?
