Has anyone published cyber sex as erotica? I don't know how it would read, but isn't role-playing improvisational acting?

Bob,
I for one would never take a copy of cyber sex and 'publish' it raw. I think it would be hard to follow and really wouldn't make a good or easy read. For one the shift in characters every other line would make it confusing for me.

To take what was said and to make it into a story wouldn't be that hard, might be time consuming but not really hard. Just make the sentences complete and make it I/you or he/she instead of I/I. Ten fragmented sentences in a row make it difficult to follow and the writing doesn't flow.

I have gotten ideas for stories from cyber sex. But have never taken a session and made it into a story. I just take the basic idea or the part I would like to see and write my story with that thought in the back of my mind.

Not sure this was the type of responce you were looking for, but I'll throw in my 2 cents anyway.

Thanks, PK, I imagine you're right about the readability of an IM. I guess I'm intrigued about the possibilities for using cyber space in ways beyond normal printed stories. I guess it would take very skilled "actors" (?) to ad lib a scene that flows better than a well crafted (and honed) story, but might it have more raw energy? Sort of like the effect of the handheld video cameras in the Blair Witch Project? Certainly I've never seen anyone's cyber sex IMs, and what I've seen done in public chat rooms is generally pretty awful.(but then people entering and leaving and carying on unrelated conversations makes for a very difficult read) Are these things too personal to share? Sort of like (maybe a lot like) having sex in front of other people? Criticisms would be too hard to take, too personal - they would be criticisms of your love-making, not your writting? Anyway, thanks for your comments (but see, now you've encouraged the boob!) Bob

Bob,
I've seen it done in short bursts as part of a story but never as a whole story. I'm racking my brains trying to think what the story was but I can't remember off hand.

I think it can add to a story but to do the whole thing that way would be hard work. You could do it if you were cybering on Mirc and took logs, then edited the logs, to cut out all the crap and just have the two participants talking, but I think even that would probably become boring after a while.

No story is made up all dialogue, and that's what cyber is when you break it right down, it's dialogue between two people. Phone sex over a modem if you will

I think the only way you could use it in a story would be to take parts of the conversation and use it as a building block.
A whole log would just bore the reader IMHO. But add a little description break it up with what either person was actually doing at the time and you might have a winner.

Another thought, you could take it a stage further and add a couple of webcams into the story. Then you would have no only the dialogue but a visual as well. Tell it from one characters POV and intersperce[sp] it with dialogue from the logs, describe that characters thoughts and feelings as he/she watched the other and you might just have a story.

Not sure if any of the above really answers any of your questions but it's the best I can come up with right now,
regards,
Jenne

Good points, Jenne - It could be very monotonous just dialog although there are ways to indicate actions (as Bob shifts uneasily in his seat) or maybe thoughts {man, what was I thinking there!} But putting some IM in with text might give an interesting combination of immedite action and story-telling. Very interesting idea with the Web-cam. I don't know if it would add or subtract from the impact. I'm sorry to say I've never used one - still waiting for that experience. I can't say I've ever seen an illustrated story I found interesting - maybe it was just poor writing as a excuse to show a series of pics. If anyone wants to send me a vid I'll try to build a story around it! :) Thanks for you ideas, Bob

This is the oldest post in the Writing Discussion section and although the original postee may no longer be around, I was interested in the topic.

Whilst I agree that the publishing of raw cyber sex conversation would be rather dull, I do think that a purely conversation based story would be fascinating and, handled properly has the potential to be extremely erotic.

The delivery of a tale without the Author providing description would give it a terseness and immediacy. It would require the reader to use the same imaginative skills that the participants used to enact their 'coupling'.

Like many Authors I try to utilise different ways of either imparting information or progressing the story and have included messaged conversations in some of my tales but have never attempted a dialogue only tale (actually, I'm not very good at writing dialogue so I tend to steer away from it).

I would love to read a conversation only story.

So to the questions.

Has anybody ever written one? Attempted to write one? Or read one? Or does everybody agree with PleasureKitten & Jenne64 and think that it would be dull/unwriteable?

I would be really interested in reading a story like this.

You could do each person in a different font. I've read people's IM logs before, and it isn't that hard to follow. In chats I have been in, each person changes their font until everyone's is different.

If the 2 people do a good job of describing to each other what is happening on their side, I think it could be really great. And people all the time use triangle brackets to insert actions into IMs.

Basically, it would be narrated by both people at the same time, instead of being either first person view of one of the characters or third person view.

I may have a go at one which is why I asked if others had tried ... but I've got my never ending Stalker Story to finish first and given my average writing speed I may be old and grey by the time that's done.

There is an author, IBMissbehaving, who has a story called "My Trip to the Toy Store" which is written, in part, as an IM series. Its in the archives

See, now that is what I was talking about.

The begining of the IM reads like a simple narrative trick; ie. another way of narrating the events at the toy store which I'm perfectly happy with but was not what I was looking for.

Then the conversation switched to a simple IM between IBMissbehaving and (if I remember your relationship correctly) your good self, Old Mike.

And it is spectacular ... immediate, raw and not over narrated.

Thank you for the tip, Old Mike
