Writing Smut Isn't Easy

Writing:
Crap! I don't know how Zane and other smut purveyors do it. You'd think it be simple: characters come in, exchange innuendo-laden dialogue, and BAM!! they're engaging in all sorts of carnal acts. Right?

Wrong. I keep writing myself into dead ends. Do I need to write about what they do for a living or what the room looks like? Okay, maybe I do, but I'm not getting to the smut. Maybe the library has a book about how to write sex scenes...Oh, wait they do.

Well, on Monday I'll have writtten some smut.

Reading:
Jesusland still haunts me. I just read Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life.

I need to buy it. That's some great stuff. I can't wait to read it all. It's the perfect mix of indie comics and manga.
And it's published by Oni!
