First-person/Third-person

P.S. Anthonology was horrible, but Firefly (a later book of his) fed many of my young fantasies. (Warning to parents of 12 year old girls - don't let them read Piers Anthony's Firefly. :rolleyes: )

First-person, no? Looking back at that, I notice I wrote most of these in the present-tense too, which can be sort of awkward, although I guess it works as long as I'm consistent!

That's first, but it would be so much stronger if it were written in past tense, IMHO.

First person, because you're describing everything from your own point of view, even the things that "you' does. It seems a pretty successful attempt from that fragment, I'd like to read more of it!

(and you're right about Anthonology sucking- I've never read Firefly, though ;)
 
Yes, that's first person and there's nothing wrong with posting a story with a narrow audience. If you try to write erotica that appeals to everyone, it'll appeal to no one. Kink is a pretty specific thing. Write about what turns you on and write it how it flows for you. I know when I'm using the right voice as narrator because the story starts coming out.
