So, I have known for some time that I am an exception writer with one flaw..

I'm overly descriptive. That doesn't sound like a flaw, but it is. Being overly descriptive in creative writing leads the work to be less creative and more scientific.

I have been forcing myself away from writing as I used to, letting the viewer's mind to take over the minor details. It has led to some of my best writing that I have ever made, writing that I am truly proud of.

A few weeks ago I realized that being so descriptive is not always a flaw, one form of writing in particular actually benefits from being more descriptive, as long as you keep it tasteful.

Smut.

Some people may look at me and be a little shocked at first. A lot of people don't know the true 'me.' The art of sex has been an obsession of mine for a long time. Yes, I call it an art. It is, and very much so. The feelings, the desires. The emotions, everything that is put into one act can be so strong. A simple painting, a simple writing, can convey so much more about how a person feels than a simple observation ever truly could.

A few years ago I wrote a short story for a friend. She demanded that I write something for her, and after some time I decided to. A small portion of the story was smut, I was unhappy and I wanted to make a joke of the story. She was overwhelmed and enjoyed the story very much.

Since then I have always thought about doing more, but have always been deterred from it, hiding that side of myself from society.

Those weeks ago, I wrote something for another friend. Another request. I was overwhelmed by how it turned out, how strong it was. They were equally amazed and from that point I decided that I wished to continue writing more.

Then it dawned on me, DA prohibits pornography. I decided to read their policy on it. It threw my ideas in the air. The policy is so strict that it is nigh impossible to post any writing that is even minorly sexually based.

'• Sexual Intercourse

A literary work may not detail graphic or explicit sexual intercourse. This includes descriptions of sexual penetration, oral to genital contact, genital to anal contact, oral to anal contact and may also include certain types of genital to genital contact and oral to breast contact.

This prohibition extends to descriptions of bodily fluids associated with sexual acts such as semen and vaginal lubricants.'

so...

I was stumped. I still am, somewhat.
I will not let that deter me, however. Ideas are already flowing in. A lustful poetry of the soul.

I no longer consider it to be a set-back. My mind is a-buzz with ideas, an artistic projection, and what I see over the horizon is better than what I am leaving behind.

With this, I leave you...
I can't promise anything, writing has been hard for me in any way as of late.

To the future, I suppose...
