Attention would-be porn authors...

A few sore points in some writing...

I will be naming body parts, So if that make you uncomfortable go read the next entry on your friends page.



First off, the difference between a guy's limp & erect penis size if made up *solely* by blood. And there's only so much in the human body. Diverting a pint or more to inflate the monster cock you've given your character is going to make him *faint* before he gets hard.

Really large cocks only get *firmer*, they don't get all that miuch bigger.

Second, breast/bra size. The number part (the "band size") is based on measuring around the chest *below* the breasts. The letter part is the cup size, and is based on the difference between that measurement belopw the breasts and the measurement around the chest *over* the breasts.

So nothing short of getting *hugely* fat, or increasing the size of their rib cage is going to change the band size of a character's bra. Cups size, yes, Implants, etc change that.

Oh, and while I'm at it, semen is not stored in the balls! The testicles produce sperm cells, which are a minute fractiomn of the volume of semen. The fluid is produced in the prostate. And stored their for the most part.

Do try to keep the volumes of ejaculate reasonable while you are at it. Remember, it's got to be stored in there, and an emlarged prostate ain't comfortable. :-)

Next comes descriptions & positioning. If you aren't good at visualizing things, get someone who is to read over your stuff. It's *way* jarring to be reading along and have the characters described as being in positions that are physically impossible.

Worst example I've ever run into: Woman, on hands and knees. Man on his knees behind her, penis in her vagina. Ok, so far. Then the author had a third character ramming a *big* dildo in the woman's ass.

Only way that'd work would be if the guy was bent back painfully, or the dildo was shoved thru his body.

Now we get to spelling. Spell checkers are of *very* limited help. Besides not having most slang words in them (especially the ones fopund in porn) the most they can do is tell you that each word is a real word, known to the program. That's not the same as being the word you wanted.

Prime example, the part of your body belts go around is your waist. Waste is trash, shit, etc. So it's a bit jarring to have you writing "He embraced her waste" unless you are writing scat stories.

Again, having a good proofreader helps.

Lord knows that every time I read a drafdt of one of my stories more goofs jump out. Misspelled words, *missing* words, even missing *sentences*.

So, please take a bit of care. Your readers will thank you.

Add 5", or 3", and round up, or don't -- I'd call it a pain in the ass, but that would be ... misplaced :-) .
