Hey BlueLine,
There is wide range of approaches any writer could take to creating a story. You probably wouldn’t find two authors with the exact same approach on this forum. With that being said, I’ll get down to it and list out some things I do that help me.
1) You have to be interested in your own story. Even though this forum features some specific fetishes, there is still a wide range to them as far as what readers prefer. You aren’t going to hit a home run with everyone here so I just write what I would want to read. Or if someone requests a story, sometimes I have to politely decline because I’m just not into the material. I’m not going to write about wood elves in a tickle feud with pixies in some magical realm. I’m just not. If you aren’t into the material, it’ll come off flat and forgettable. Like when you can tell a movie was just a cash grab versus when it’s a director’s passion that he’s been wanting to make for years. Pick a scenario you would be excited to click on and read if you saw someone else post it to the story section. Those are the kind of stories you should write.
2) Detailed notes will help keep it straight. When I decide on a story idea, I like to know far more detail about the scenes and characters than what will ever make the cut in my stories. If I’m the author, I should know what’s going on and what the characters are like beyond the borders of the story. This helps me easily be able to write how a character would react to something or helps me visualize the tiny world I’m trying to convey. Personally, I think that with so many stories on this forum, what will make a story stand out in a reader’s mind for years is the little details. “Amy was a sexy secretary who had very ticklish feet” means nothing to me. You’ll forget that character in 30 seconds. You shouldn’t explain EVERY detail about a character, but you need a few that make them stand out and build them into a person a reader could visualize. Same goes for the settings. “The living room” is boring and could mean a million different things. Describe your setting a little so that the reader can visualize what’s happening. Before I begin, I list out each character and note their characteristics. Their physical descriptors, their personality traits, and some details about them that help flesh out the character. Then I can reference my notes as I write.
3) When you start writing, visualize what you think would happen. If I’m going to write a tickling scene, I don’t necessarily have every detail planned out. I’ll start and try to imagine the scenario playing out in my mind. If I like how it’s shaping up, I just describe it in words as I’m daydreaming about it. It’s really not a complicated process. But it goes back to the first point. If you’re into the material, your mind should take over and give you an image of what it would be like. Then just describe it as you see fit. And the more senses you include in your descriptions, the more real it will appear to the reader. Things like what the character’s feet look like, how they feel when the tickler touches them, the sound of their lighter, the taste of their toes as the tickler sucks them, the smell of their soles as the tickler inhales their sweet scent, etc.
Hope those tips helped! Private message me if you need any help.
