Summary
I frequently reblog writing advice and resource posts on Tumblr, and get semi-frequent asks about writing and related matters. I decided it might be useful to collect all the useful posts here by topic. I may add new chapters and update older chapters as new, related asks and posts appear.

Summary
Feeling like your smut is missing something? Worried your smut is getting repetitive? Wanting to get a bit more creative with your smut?
Well, here's this rando's 3k+ words of things you could consider while writing smut.
This is not a how-to, not a collection of tips, nor a list of do's and don't's. This is a tool: a reference for all the different elements I could think of that might come into play during and surrounding a sex scene.
This is broken into five major sections: context, foreplay, abstract and practical considerations during the act, orgasm and ending the scene, and afterwards.
I do include many examples of how many of the considerations brought up could vary. Some or maybe all of this will seem obvious, but I hope I am able to make you think about something you hadn't.
TW: There are mentions and brief discussions of dubcon/noncon and violent elements. I consider this to be a largely clinical analysis and discussion, but continue with caution if you deal with sensitivities to things along those lines.-
