Hello! ❤️
14 + 15 for the writers ask please!
Heyy thank you for your ask ❤️
14. how do you write emotional scenes? Do you ever feel what the characters feel? Do you draw from personal experiences?
I think my most important approach is to get in the mood beforehand, to listen to sad music for example. I always felt what y/n felt when I wrote emotional scenes there. Sometimes not as intense, like I didn't bawl my eyes out while writing, but my heart did hurt a loooot. It does get interrupted sometimes though when you go back and read again and start editing lol
I don't necessarily draw the emotions from personal experiences, I rather imagine how I would feel like in those situations. Music helps me a lot with that.
15. How do you write smut scenes? Do you get very visual or detailed? How important is it to be realistic?
I think for smut scenes it's the most important to make sure that your readers can follow the action and movements. Nothing throws you out of the scene more than suddenly asking yourself "how can his balls slap against her [insert bodypart] in that position?" At the same time, I think it doesn't have to be realistic in specific aspects. Like in Permission, Sukuna was way taller than y/n and some positions wouldn't have worked out the way I wrote them and DP with his dongs in one hole is something that would probably hurt a lot and wouldn't have been so easy as I wrote it. I think it's important to throw some aspects of realistic elements into it to not make the reader be thrown out of the scene. I also think the rythm and length of the scene is super important too.
