Wat Smut?!

Found via :

has and interesting post and some intriguing questions regarding the topic “Sex and the Fanfiction Writer”.

I quote:

1) Of the body of fic that you’ve read during your time in fandom, roughly what percentage includes sex scenes, and how many of those scenes contribute to plot advancement or character development?

2) If you’re an author, do you ever include sex scenes in your stories? If so (and please be honest), do you always do it strictly to advance your plot? Or do you sometimes do it because it’s what your readers want/expect you to write …

3) Do you enjoy writing sex scenes? Or do you struggle for every word …

4) Do you believe in your heart of hearts that most romantic stories should include sex?

5) If you read a story with strong sexual overtones, do you feel cheated if the author does a fade to black? Why or why not?

6) If you’re an author, do you feel a subtle pressure to write smut even if you aren’t really comfortable with it?

(Now I need to go out and run some errands, but I’ll be back in a while to answer these AND to write new episodes for BoD.)
