Can Writing Be As Good As Sex?

It does not need to be x-rated. Heck your actual story can be rated G.

I want you to court your writing, so it will court you back.

Your creative process should be intense, deep, pleasurable, and exhilarating.

You should surrender to your work so that it can take you to places where you have never been before.

This might all sound a little scary. You might be afraid of the intensity of what I am suggesting.

You might find it hard to just let yourself go a little…or even a lot.

It might be hard to let your work consume you instead of you controlling it. But why not give it a try?

Surrender. I want you to write what wants to be written rather than what you want to write. At least once in a while.

I want you to be a little more playful, risky, and adventurous in your writing.

I want you to amaze yourself. I want you to let go and have fun.

I want your writing to be so enjoyable sometimes that you break out of the little prisons you didn’t know you had created for yourself.

You don’t have to do this in public. It might be kind of gross if you did.

And I am not literally talking about combining sex and writing…but to each her own.

I am just saying that maybe this comparison is worth thinking about.

And just to make sure that the responses in my blog stay clean, I’m closing comments to this post.

Talk amongst yourselves! And have a great weekend.
