Tips and tricks for writing ENF and erotic fiction
 

Hi folks. As some of you know, myself and several other good posters here are frequent writers/contributors of ENF and other erotic stories (I myself am mostly active on Writing.com IMO the best place to write stories). But it's easy to forget that there are many other conspiring authors out there who want to get their cocks wet with ENF. But where oh where to begin?
Well, this thread is for those good perverts who want to write quality ENF/erotica but simply don't know where to start or have already started and want tip to improve their work. I urge everybody here to contribute to this thread in some way, whether to give their own advice, comment on another persons advice, or complain that there aren't enough descriptions of naked women in this thread. This thread won't be easy to masturbate too (But by all means try) and is mostly for advice on how to help others masturbate. Nice huh?

To begin, your good friend Zelten will give you his three rules of writing erotica

1. Know what you're writing. Even if you're just sticking to ENF stories there are still many ways you can take it. Is it a lighthearted silly ENF where a girl accidentally loses her clothes to a random breeze? Is it a more realistic scenario where a poor women is trapped naked in a locker room and has to find a way not be seen? For that matter is it super serious, hardcore, and feature graphic sex? These are all things you have to consider before writing a story and it's something your audience needs to know too. When I click on an ENF story expecting a comical romp I don't want super hardcore graphic BDSM.

2. Stay consistent Going in line with the above, if you're writing for a specific genre then I urge you to keep that story within that genre! If a story starts with a ditzy girl walking outside nude and then ends up turning into a shrinking vorefest, then there is something seriously wrong! Combining genres is fine but like I said, let your audience know this and most of all figure out what you want before you start writing.

3. Grammar, punctuation, and paragraphs are your friend! This is more a general writing tip but still applies to erotica. When I read an ENF story i'm not expecting some profound tale but I still want it to be readable, properly paced, descriptive and actually enjoy it. When you watch a porn film do you want it to be dark, grainy, and frustrating to watch? No? Well the same applies to ENF and erotica.


So that's what I have for now. Contribute, comment, fap, do whatever. I want this thread to be a nice handy guidebook for any conspiring ENF writer and I hope you folks will help me with that.
Now you can go back to reading erotic stuff. Sorry for killing your boner, well except you...yeah I saw what you were doing while reading this.

nice tips there nice to see someone trying to get more stuff going on so thanks

I would say, like any writing, focus on character. I have a hard time with ENF stories in particular that just list the physical events. What the nudity does to the characters is the interesting part. That's also kind of just my opinion.

Describe what the women are wearing in graphic detail. It's frustrating when I'm reading a story about a woman being stripped and I have little to no idea what they're actually wearing or what they even look like.

Also, if the story is particularly long, mention what they're wearing again later on. The reader shouldn't have to scroll back up again to find out what they were wearing.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I generally prefer when writing follows conventional language, rather than pornographic language. Describing what someone looks like is fine, but descriptions like "her C-cup tits" or "perfect pussy" really takes me out of the story and reminds me of what I'm really reading. There are better and more elegant ways of conveying those things. I believe ENF is a genre that benefits from feeling genuine, but pornographic style writing absolutely destroys that for me.

I understand where you're coming from. There are some issues with crossing over into getting too pornographic. It's a difficult balance to strike. Then again, I suppose it depends on what else the reader likes. For example, if they enjoy erotica as well they probably enjoy some of the crossing over.

I'm like you in that when it gets too pornographic I'm turned off. If you've read my stories before you'll know I do add it in there sometimes, but I'm not fussed over it. By the time, we get to that part I've usually grown bored and completely turned off. I just shove it in there for those who do like the pornographic stuff.

Zelten,
Speaking of grammar, the term is aspiring author, not conspiring author.

But we're the ENF conspiracy! :eek::D

Such a great thread


As I've continued writing my ENF stories have become more pornographic and I am still growing as a writer in terms of finding out new ways to describe physical descriptions and making unique characters. That being said, one thing I find helpful in writing stories is to explore different aspects of embarrassment beyond someone losing their clothes. Obviously that's why we're all here but it's the added elements of other humiliation (without getting too racy) that make a good enf story.

I always viewed embarrassment as a secret being let out, so while panties and nudity are obvious ones, a person's self consciousness over an out of shape body part or hidden tattoo also make for a great story. Many stories on this website and others are very good at that, I think there's one story series called James the Peasant Knight that is chock full of examples like these. It has something like 60 chapters and I was blown away at how fresh the author was able to keep it.

Hey! My grammar are good.

I have another tip.

Get the ratios between something happening and filling in the background information right. I've never liked stories where 75% of the story is taken up by background information and only background information. The characters are frozen in time whilst the writer is telling us all this stuff, and then the characters finally do something and it's all over in a few paragraphs.

Thankfully, I don't see too many of these around on this forum specifically, but I think it's important to let the action take over. It doesn't have to be the stripping itself, but the characters have to be interacting with the world around them, rather than the writer simply telling us everything whilst the characters are hanging around waiting for the narrator to shut up.

I think, for me, the most important thing is to be passionate about what you write. If you like deep, emotional connections, fine. If you prefer shallow, hardcore action, also fine. There's an audience for both! If you try to write in a style that you don't enjoy or attempt to please someone else, it'll probably show. Then, no one is truly pleased with the outcome.

Although, grammar and spelling are universal deal breakers! Writing lk ur typin a txt msg is greatest sin of them all, and I've seen it happen with increasing frequency. Bah, kids these days... Get off my lawn!

Anyway, I don't think my writing style earns me a lot of fans, but I'm generally pretty happy with it. Just not enough hours in the day and a lot of responsibilities! :)

1) Don't be in a hurry.
The embarrass is deeper if it's built slowly.

2) ENF stories are fair ones.
It's better if the stripped lady deserve it; if there is justice -the bad ones are punished, the good ones are rewarded.

My taste in ENF is a little more twisted. I have a fetish for innocent 18-25 year old girls, preferably petite yet buxom teasers who proudly strut around showing off their bouncy and firm body. It's hottest when the only thing they're guilty of is of having a body like Felicity Fey (google her) and not exposing it to anyone. She may be pure and naive, but her sultry features invite uncontrollable lust and jealousy. The best villains/heroes are jealous women, corrupt police or similar, thieves who force girls to strip during a robbery, or complete mishaps or mistaken identities. The girl should be stripped by force, because she's the kind of modest and pure sweetheart who would never disrobe herself in front of anyone. She is exposed in ways even the trashiest stripper would blush at. Etc Etc...Think KC Silkwood, CaptainQuixote, etc

Really good thread. I'm a newbie, so please don't take this as Gospel or anything, but here are my thoughts:

1. The build up is EVERYTHING. Sometimes you find a story with a great premise....... but no build up. Or great characters, but no build up. So the ENF stuff happens, and it loses the impact.

2. Pet Peeve A: The story doesn't give lots of details, which is ok, so I imagine the details in my head and paint a picture. But then, usually when the action is finally getting hot, the story suddenly gives a bunch of details...... and it turns out I was imagining everything all wrong! Blondes become brunettes, teens become milfs, big boobs go FLAT!!! Doh!

3. Pet Peeve B: This is the ENF version of watching an "adult" video, where a hot girl is stripping, taking off all her clothes..... and when you finally get to the end, it turns out "she" is a tranny! An ENF story (usually first person) where you THINK the protagonist is of one gender. And the story goes on and on, talking about her job, school, family, etc. Blah blah blah. It's not until you read halfway through the story that you find out you had the gender wrong! Double Doh!

4. The more the author builds up how much the girl fears/hates revealing herself, the more exciting the payoff. And when the author really builds this up, and the "reveal" of each part of her body is dramatic, the payoff is off the charts. (A few stories in particular do an incredible job of putting an EXCLAMATION POINT!!!! on why a girl fears/hates being esposed naked..... and then it happens anyway, in a fun & well paced story..... those are my favorites. Bless those writers!!)

5. This is JMO, but I don't mind it when a story gets extreme, because I just skip over the parts I don't like. Once you know the plot and characters, it's like an adult video tape (speaking of the old days!) where you just fast forward to your favorite scenes, and I'd rather a story have the stuff I want, even if it does go farther than I would've written. But I might be in the minority here.

Strongly agree. Too much NF, not enough ENF is a big mistake, and the more we know/imagine the protagonist cares, the more WE care. Reaction is critical!

The really good writers come up with very innovative ways to ratchet up the E. Because all stories have the same basic set-up: In a hypothetical situation, SOMETHING happens that forces a woman to reveal something personal, intimate and embarrassing. The E can simply be the fear/shame/shock in being seen naked, but there's some really, really great stories where the author raises the stakes higher:

1. Woman has a special reason to fear being seen naked, or fear being seen in an uncomfortable situation
2. Being seen naked will have uniquely devastating consequences for her
3. Woman's personality/appearance/job/status makes her just BEGGING to be stripped!
4. There's a sense of payback/karmic justice
5. The people who witness/perpetrate the E somehow makes the E even worse

Maybe folks could post a few stories that we think are particular standouts?

Thanks for the compliment! I know exactly what you mean; there's a perverse thrill that goes along with the main character in an ENF story being a sweet young thing who doesn't have a mean bone in her body. Although I like the other type of ENF story, too, where an evil girl gets her just desserts. I try to include both types in my books, to please all tastes!

good read
 

I think I am guilty of some of the bad habits here when I write stuff.

I am new to this, but when I write EUF/ENF stuff (I am more into EUF). I make sure that once the character got stripped already that I focus on their embarassment until the story ends.

About who gets stripped? I prefer women who are kinda prudish, and the uptight women.

Hmmm, haven't put too many contributions here, but I've contributed a lot to the interactive stories over on writing.com. Two things I'd like to add:

1) Sometimes an author adds other fetishes, if they are not to extreme. I find this to be a good practice, I sometimes found myself liking some kink I never liked before because it worked with the story. My contributions might have some spanking, hot bens, or wet and messy. I've found very few (I think, in fact 0) people who say this ruins it for them, and several who enjoyed it.

2) As far as the innocent/deserving factor, I like to cheat here. Maybe some character with an evil streak plans to humiliate some innocent young thing, and it backfires on her. But maybe, that innocent young person who escaped unscathed, will get stripped in a sequel. Then, perhaps she takes revenge. In other words, why do we have to decide? Just keep writing until it's time for a new story because it's gone back and forth so much there's nothing that hasn't been done. You could even do it tit for tat (no pun intended) where, in the context of a catfight or something, both characters are stripped by degrees. On the other hand, it's nice for one to keep her dignity for a while chapter, as you drag it out, making the comeuppance sweeter when it happens.

I've always been a fan of breast expansion, so I consider that area to be fair game for an ENF humiliation story. Instead of humiliating a girl by always exposing her body against her will, how about occasionally humiliating her by changing some aspect of it against her will? I'm thinking of the haughty senior prom queen who suddenly finds her pride-and-joy 34DDs deflating to nothing in front of the entire dance, while some cute flat-chested girl nearby suddenly finds herself spilling out of her dress. Or perhaps a young woman gets cursed by a gypsy so that her ass swells just enough burst the seams of any pants she might be wearing.

As Myds impied, you need to strike a balance. Is it a BE story with ENF elements, or an ENF story with BE elements? I've found that the body-transformation aspects tend to go over well so long as the transformations involve realistic sizes and body parts. No boobs literally the size of oil supertankers, but going from skinny to stacked usually gets a good reaction. Also, be very careful of anything that involves sex switching to any degree. You might think there could be few things more embarrassing for an NFL cheerleader than to suddenly sprout an 18" erect penis out of her hot pants, and you'd probably be right. Something like that, however, will freak out a large portion of your readership if they're not expecting it almost as much as it would freak out the cheerleader in question!
