Help!! I'm writing rp slash, and I need help!! The issue: I'm crap at writing sex scenes. It's like I can't get them to feel... real. It's like they come out strained, or fake. It's a C/C fic. I haven't gotten to that section yet, but it would be nice to have a beta, I guess. Craig has had a shower scene with himself, and that turned out better than I thought. And my last fic was, for a lack of a better word, crap. Sure, it was funny crap, but it was still crap. Too much going on. So, help me!!

I've never written Real Person Fiction, but I gather it's hard to get right. I'd suggest researching Chris and Craig to get their characters right and having them interact with each other platonically first rather than starting off with a sex scene. Watch the docs on the DVDs or if you haven't got them yet, there are clips on Youtube.

A word of caution - as I understand it, we're not allowed to post RPS in this community, so make sure you only write it in your personal journal. :)
