Hello World

Hello fellow authors,

I'm delving into the intricate world of power dynamics with my latest story, "The Unraveling of Lena James." It explores themes of BDSM, psychological transformation, and the complexities of desire.

I'd love to hear about your experiences writing on similar themes. How do you approach character development in such intense scenarios?

Looking forward to engaging discussions!

Hi Solaxiom, and welcome!

This is a jump out of the plane moment. I’ve thought about doing this for years.

Welcome. Writing power dynamics, especially in a psychological context, can be tricky but super rewarding. Character development in these scenarios is all about balance, showing growth, consent, and emotional depth while keeping the tension strong.

Hi and welcome!
Really liked the story! (voted 5)
"Intense power dynamics" is my thing too. And sometimes less intense.

The trick with character development in this type of story is to make sure that there's a transformation in the dynamic; there could be a feeling of "helter-skelter" , for instance, an inevtiable momentum towards a final state (which doesn't have to be one person totally controlling the other). Or you can make it see saw, a struggle which doesn't always go one way for the protagonists. And remember to make both the dominant and submissive protagonists feel like real people. Show weakness in the dominant, and strength in the submissive.


FYI The Story Feedback forum is a great place to get feedback from authors and readers. on your stories. It was the first place I posted, back in 2002, and I was immediately impressed by the quality of the feedback (which was actually mostly negatove, but very helpful).

Thanks. This was my first story ever. I've thought about them in my head for years. I wonder what works well. I love to get feedback to course correct.
