Would I be selling out?

Question

Would I be selling out if I wrote literotica and short sexual stories aka smut? I'm a writer but can't make enough based on my articles and literotica looks so tempting and I'm wonderful at writing it. Id call it a strong suit of mine. I'm scared though that by making this content id be selling out. What do you ladies think? Id prefer comments but votes work.

Answer

As long as you dont write shit like 50 shades of grey type shit, you're all good in my book. "Holy cow" has no place in erotica. 😂

Answer

Ugh, as long as you can do better than some of the crap I have read. I don't think it's selling out, it's still writing, just with a little extra flavor!

Answer

I voted sell out thinking it meant the books would likely sell out. I think you should go for it 😃

Answer

What if you started to write it but under a pseudonym?

Answer

I worked in film for years and we had a few porn offers come when we were desperate for work.. like couldn't pay the bills desperate. ..but we never did it because once you cross over there's no going back and no one in Hollywood would ever look at you as a serious film maker again. I also am a novelist and feel it's the same thing. I know it's tempting but you'll ruin your career and only ever be able to do that one thing.

Fx it works out for you whatever you decide. It's not like it would make you a bad person but getting serious main stream work ever again would be tough.

Answer

Another question here. I was wondering if you ladies would be likely to buy a compilation of short smut stories about 2000-5000 words long? I personally hate the romance and stuff. I usually look at literotica to get a quickie in and I just want the sex scenes but I'm a different kind of woman so I need to know about other women. Would you buy content like this?

Answer

How is it a sell out if it's still writing?

Regardless of what type of literature it is at the end of the day your still a writer.

Do what makes u happy! If writing in general makes u happy getting compensated for it a little more is even better don't u think??
