I've come late to erotic writing and admit to being a novice. Writing fiction in general is a new experience for me. I've always been depressed about pornography and much so-called erotica, which fails to recognise that most arousal is created in one's own mind, prompted in subtle ways by images seen, read and heard. As a result, what is readily available fails to resonate with most women and, it seems, also with many men. For some time, I've dabbled with erotic stories, encouraged by my partner, who is also the stimulus for sharing some of my dabblings more widely. I've had an interesting professional career, with lots of travel, so I like to use real places as both stimulus and setting for my erotic imagination. I'm keen to improve, so constructive feedback is welcome.
