valkryorMy NaNo novel continues to truck along. I've written the end of it (the majority of it, at any rate, including teh sexytimes), and have finally started at the beginning. I constantly feel like I'm in the weeds, despite making my daily word count.
If that's what motivates me, then that's what motivates me. *shrug*
I wrote two sex scenes and not once did I use 'hole' OR 'entrance'. You want to jolt me out of an erotic romp? Have me read one of those two words. THEY ARE NOT SEXY. THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN SEXY. STAHP. I have seen it crop up in the historical romance I read and I've seen it in the past when I was read a lot (like A LOT) of slashy fanfic. I'm going to go ahead and blame Ao3 for its migration into the published, for profit world of sex scenes. And while I have nothing but love and joy for Ao3, I could have lived without that transference.
