Literary Lemonade

[elfs]

I finished Sterlings episode 3. The first time through it, I was really unhappy with it. Although I'd managed to get Polly and Rhiane into bed, there wasn't any energy in the sex scene I'd written.

I debated re-writing it, but decided instead to make lemonade out of a lemon. If there scene lacked energy, maybe I should keep it that way. A bad sex scene is as broadening and revealing to the characters as a good one. And it sets up all kinds of nifty unresolved conflicts. The fact that Polly got some of what she wanted only to learn that it would have been better to play all-or-nothing says a lot about her, especially when we finally get her into bed with the very kinky Lieutenant Zia Chi.

Two words about Polly: "Pronoun trouble."

...not that I'm complaining, but if your goal in posting info and teasers about these dozens of stories that you have finished, but not published, is to heighten demand and interest, allow me to say you have accomplished your goals.

(I think technically that is only a run-on sentence if you count the portion in the subject line...)
