Do you write from real experiences?

[AG31]

But there is more to your stories than just BDSM.

Not much.

 

[AG31]

maybe you read Fifty Shades of Gray, or you wouldn’t know it exists.

You're stretching "real life" beyond its usefulness, I think.

 

[Saturn0815]

Forthcoming pieces will be more based on my experiences.

I am really looking forward to your forthcoming (or should I say Forthcumming) pieces!

 

[AG31]

I’d suggest that to write about BDSM, you’ve had to have some cursory exposure to the concept at some level; maybe you read Fifty Shades of Gray, or you wouldn’t know it exists.

Actually, my fantasies (always BDSM, but not in the relational interpretation), started pre-latency. That was 70 years ago. I guarantee I had never read nor seen any such thing.

Curious, but I can relate. I’ve wanted to be a girl since well before puberty. I wonder if fetishes and gender dysphoria are somehow predisposed, or even genetic.

 

[LauraLO]

Mine are all true. Especially those with magic, elves, demons, and of course, women who can cum a dozen times in an hour.

Ohhhh those amateurs that only cum dozen times in an hour...be a real woman please

 

[HordHolm]

I write from personal experience, a lot. But only for the non-erotic elements of my stories.

 

[intim8]

For the most part, my stories are either totally true or based on truth. Either way, Vicki helps me write every one of them and she is really helpful with sexy details.

Do you write total fantasy, or is it at least based on real events?

That's not really a yes/no question for me. At the large scale, none of the overarching scenarios in my stories are from real events, but there are details plucked from real life here and there. Everything from bits and pieces of real life non-sexual pizza delivery experience in Nudios Pizza to that time my first girlfriend (we were 18/17) sat on my lap fully clothed in the car and she either accidentally or only semi-intentionally gave herself a small orgasm from pressing on the tent in my pants. She was completely quiet and still during it, as if she was hoping I wouldn't notice, even though our faces were inches apart.

I have put that into a story, but I can't remember which, and it might be one that is still a WIP or on the slush pile.

Real experiences........

 

[Writer61]

Most of what I write is from my imagination. I have borrowed a few activities and places from actual experience but usually assembled them differently. Although I rarely write detailed descriptions of characters I usually have a mental image of them, often based on real people.

Ironically the story which is closest to reality is one of my lowest scorers.

 

[Five_Inch_Heels]

Yes, the story of the ghost of Aunt Nancy appearing to her nephew on the night of his death and guiding him to the cemetery to reunite with his long dead mother was absolutely based on first hand experience.

 

[Dearelliot]

Two of my stories are about Elizabeth a prostitute with a dominant bend that I lived with...embellished of course, her mother and sister were real too. The real Liz had a large thick scar on her left breast from the war that I didn't mention, and she had the morals of a cat. But not the dominatrix I make her out to be.

 

[LonRivers]

No. In fact, I can't even use names of people that I know because I don't want to think about them as I write. I will look up obscure names or invent names just to avoid using common names. I don't want the image of family, friends or enemies swaying the way I view my characters or influencing my stories. It's an odd issue for sure.

 

[AprilTwenties]

They say "Write about what you know...." so, yeah boo.

[Erosfan]

A couple of my stories are 100% true and the others have some truth and fantasy.

 

[UnexpectedLuggage]

All events in my stories are completely fictional. Based on fantasies I have of real people? Perhaps, but still fiction.

 

[Oniafox]

Absolutely. My work is quite autobiographical My wife would say embarrassingly autobiographical

 

[Inkent]

Yes, no and any all things in-between. Often use experiences of others as a basis, but often seriously pumped with fictional overload

 

[SavannaT]

Somewhat yes

 

[Hypnobitch01]

Usually when it comes to sensations I try to write from experience.

 

[Inkent]

"My eyes are down here, boys (just don’t tell my husband) stop staring at my face."

SavannaT​

That amused me no end...sorry I'll tryand lift my head up now!

 

[lovecraft68]

I do write from real experiences, but what is real? Are we real, or are we just characters in someone else's dream?

A fragment of underdone potato, are we?

 

[WCSGarland]

Do you write total fantasy, or is it at least based on real events?

Feelings, yes. Plot, action? My life is much more mundane than my imagination will ever be. When I write plot or action in my story it may trigger a remembered feeling, not necessarily related to my real life occurrence that generated that feeling. But I describe that feeling to the best of my ability.

 

[EdgySubMic]

Much of what I write and subsequently retain is based on real-life experiences. The material that isn't, often ends up not satisfying me and getting deleted after some time – ignoring computer backups, but those eventually get deleted too as my backup disk fills up.

The main characters are very often based on people I know or have known – albeit that I sometimes teleport them in time. E.g., when I needed a couple of bad guys for a specific story, I based them on bullies from my time in high school, aged them by about 25 years, but placed them in time some 10 years after those real events. Names of people I care about are anonymized (*), but those bullies got their real first names included. Places are anonymized to a certain extent, but cannot always be fully so for those who happen to know them. Timing (when relevant or noticeable) typically corresponds to reality.

(*) With the exception that, while writing something with a considerable autobiographical component to it, I will often include my own first name and one other, and then replace them when the story is done.

I might also mention that I write in 4 languages (not all equally frequently). The more fluent I am with speaking a language, the more real-life experiences tend to seep into the story. That’s in part because I sometimes want to use or paraphrase certain “untranslatable” expressions from conversations that I’ve been part of.

As I mentioned in another thread earlier today, most of the time, in my stories I want to explore things that I’d like to experience, but know I never will. To do that, I need to start from reality and build on top of it. However, recently, as I’m aging, I’ve put more focus on documenting certain memories – real ones as well as fantasies I’ve had. The latter stories are less likely to ever be published, but there’s a special someone who I’d like to be able to read them once I’ll be gone.

I can't pretend I've ever been taken to an anal sex party by my parents, banged my brother, or gobbled my dad just for practice. But yes I do draw from real life particularly when creating personalities for characters. Whether it's the village cumbucket, the dirty old man, or the gobby granny without a filter they're all based on real people I've met over the years. I always change the names but I'm sure they recognise themselves and feel honoured to be included.
