A good porn story isn't just "porn." It is a good story where what naturally happens doesn't get edited out. A good story is usually about exceptional people and/or exceptional situations. That makes for interesting sex.

I agree. And I think the key word is "natural". Interesting people responding naturally to exceptional situations makes for a good story which is more than porn.

Sometimes I think about writing such but I despair at describing human interaction in an interesting way.

But I know it when I read it.

It's the feelings, motivations and reactions that make a story interesting - most people know what happens in the squelchy bits so concentrate on the response rather than the physical actions.

The beauty of writing - it rather than making a video - puts all the action in the reader's imagination. Create characters I care about and provide the emotional/sexual scaffolding. I don't need the minute details. I'll make those up in my own head.

Thanks May. You do it wonderfully as well. It's one of the reasons Nightingales is such fun (and sexy). I'm also enjoying you real life stories on Medium.
