    Summary

    For the past however many years, Max has spent it alone, trying to tamp down powers that he doesn't fully understand. It's not until he finds some weird toys that they truly spiral out of control, leaving him frantic to both get rid of the alien ape and get everything 'back to normal'.

    It's by chance he awakens an old Pharaoh from the past, whose powers are similar to his.

    Except the guy's a freak! Pervert! Keeps calling him 'Queen' and...and kissing him...and...touching him.

    Focus, Max.

    Your life depends on it.

    Dialogue is a SUPER important element of storytelling. If it's done poorly, even otherwise great writing can be ruined.

    Summary

    If you already write smut, this guide is not for you.

    And why yes, I do teach sex ed sometimes.  You’re going to wonder.

    So, you want to write smut.  But you don’t feel smutty.  Maybe you’ve never personally felt smutty.  Maybe the smut words won’t happen.  Maybe it’s performance anxiety.  Maybe it’s meds.  Maybe it’s stress.  Maybe it’s WORDS about SEX on the INTERNET, and you CANNOT.

    But your story needs smut, and that’s valid.  Maybe your plot hinges on it.  Maybe you just want to reward your characters with some nice, juicy orgasms.  Maybe you want the explicit rating because you know people like explicit content, and you want to learn a new skill as a writer.  All valid.  

    So, we like to outline our stories.  Can we outline the sex scenes?  Yeah, kinda!

    Summary

    We all make mistakes. Even the best of us, authors who have been writing for years, slip up. That being said, I’ve noticed a lot of writers, particularly young ones or newbies, taking a shot in the dark with spelling, grammar, and general formatting. While they should be applauded for sticking with their stories, these mistakes can frustrate readers and turn them away from a solid story. How many of us have clicked into a fic, only to leave when we find one big wall of text? How many of us have physically recoiled at an inappropriate synonym or substitution, the phrase snapping us out of the story and haunting us long after we’ve finished reading?

    For those writers who are starting out, inexperienced, or simply unsure, here are a few things I’ve noticed.
