RE: Writing sex scenes is easy; relationships are hard.
I think that you are doing well! You have the firm grasp (no pun intended) on the physical path of the story. I too have a difficult time with the emotional areas of writing. I usually end up thinking about somebody (anybody) outside of my life and think about how they would do this or that.
Good luck, I still enjoy your writing!

Thank you for the fine words of praise! We'll take puns where they come, haha! I appreciate the encouragement and your reaction. It means a lot to hear. It encourages me to keep writing (that and the sales that seem to trickle in).
Expressing emotions things is hard. Like, really difficult. How do you explain through images that are interesting how someone else is feeling, i mean, you can guess, or think, what would I be feeling in this situation. How would I react? I'm more a silent brooding type instead of an explosive tyrant, so writing dialogue for someone that is explosive is difficult for me.
What you said is exactly the same! "Think about someone out side my life and hwo they would do something. Or how a friend, or coworker would behave. Great advice! Useful, and one I employ and needed to be reminded of. Thank you!
Through practice we'll get to success together!
Keep the faith! I do enjoy your writing even discounting the eroticism, it brings something, not sure what, into focus.
But,,, I do enjoy the eroticism too! :)
Never give up, NEVER be discouraged!
