what tips do you have for writing smut?
i struggle so much with it ๐ญ it sounds good in my head but then i re-read it and it sounds terrible. HELPPP

before i start i want to say... mother do not read this.
ok the core of all good smut is, tension (and if the reader is in the right mood to read smut)
tension is all about โจdescriptionโจ how the characters are breathing, what they feel, how everything feels, the small touches, the whispers, the words etc.
you want the characters to have some sort of relationship, that's why hook-up smuts don't work very well in my opinion.
for example lets make them Ex-lovers, what feelings are there? the characters will remember the softness of each others skin, the way they breathe at certain parts. they remember each others eyes, laugh, moans, touches, feelings etc.
everyone likes different things, so explore that. explore positions, kinks and that stuff.
i would say this is obvious but know what your characters are like, would they be more spontaneous? would they be more dominant? would they be more submissive. know what your characters want.
'he did this, and then she did that. and it goes on and on and on.'
add some life into your writing. make it descriptive, make it emotion driven, DESCRIBE EVERYTHINGGGG
just know the basics of stuff, know how things work and how things don't. because you could be writing about something and someone who's done it is like.. "that's not how it works its actually really painful" that would just be embarrassing ๐ฅฒ
