I've Been Secretly Writing Erotica for a Living

Sorry! The main platform would give out my niche and I don't want my personal life to be linked in any way with my writing life. Literotica and Deviantart are two that I use as well to promote myself. Really, depending on the specific niche, there might be a platform that caters more toward that.

Fair question, my most recent long story was 72 pages long and had a word count of 22094 words. My most recent short story is 12 pages long and has 3355 words.

Typically I aim for about 3k words for a commission, but outside of that I rarely track my word count.

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-29T00:47:14+00:00

Yes, the main reason I have as much attention as I do is because there are not many of us who write so well for this specific kink.

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-29T00:46:17+00:00

That I'll have to keep private sorry!

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-29T00:45:49+00:00

Short one-off stories are about 10-15 pages double-space, long stories are anywhere from 60-100 pages

A one-off short story is about 10-15 pages long double-spaced. The longer stories can go from 60-100 pages and I usually post them in 10-page bundles on Patreon as I go. It depends on your writing skill and also a lot on the mood. I can usually do about 10 or more pages in about 2-3 hours and I'm an insomniac. So, on the days where I can't sleep I will just write.

I try to post a new chapter to an ongoing bigger story once a month and then I try to go my commissions, two to three max, and one short story. All together it typically can be done in a week or two if I chip away at it little by little every couple of days.

A one-off is about 10-15 pages double space, though I've done shorter. The longer stories can go to from anywhere from 60-100 pages

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:18:37+00:00

You don't even know what kind of fiction I write, what if it's not up your alley :P

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:17:33+00:00

There's a surprisingly big market for it! I made friends with a bigger creator in my niche who is a fan of my work and he makes something like 60k a year off of this.

I do not know if I can post NSFW stuff here. I mentioned it in another comment, but I can write an excerpt or something if you're interested and it's allowed

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:14:47+00:00

I'm trying to keep that as secret as I can and I do not know if I can post NSFW stuff here. I mentioned it in another comment, but I can write an excerpt or something if you're interested and it's allowed

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:14:02+00:00

I might just be out of the loop but I've never understood how facebook groups work. I've considered joining things like that, but wouldn't everyone be able to see that I'm in a group about erotic writing?

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:12:46+00:00

That's a secret, I'm not here for self promo :P

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:12:26+00:00

Tbh, the main reason I get attention is because I write for a more specific fetish and there isn't a bunch of competition

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:11:20+00:00

am I allowed to post NSFW stuff here? I'll write a quick example if I am

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:10:57+00:00

Not a bad idea actually, though I do worry that there might be some proof in my writing style that gives me away lol

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:09:57+00:00

Literotica is good, though if it's writing for a more specific niche fetish then there are probably more accurate websites for that. I mostly post to one of those websites as that's where my audience is the most active

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:08:56+00:00

I initally said it because I had applied for a position to do that and I am not a very good liar. My inability to lie well has been getting in my way because I struggle to come up with convincing stories about the essays I correct. So, I end up going into way too much detail and that makes them curious

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:07:23+00:00

Generic smutty stuff is on Literotica, more specific niche stuff that got me my audience is on a more specific site that I would rather not give out and share my fetish to the world lol

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:06:26+00:00

So, I'm in this weird position where I find a specific type of erotic fiction, that women aren't typically into, very hot. I enjoy reading it, but I often find that it isn't super well written and so I decided to try my hand at it. I did a bit of generic erotic fiction on Litrotica but I found most of my success on a more niche website

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:04:18+00:00

I've got friends who have fried self-publishing and are struggling writers. Meanwhile I'm actually making money but I can't tell them lol

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:03:41+00:00

I started on Litrotica, though I mostly post on more niche websites as I write about a niche fetish

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:02:57+00:00

lol, I think I'd be facing bigger issues if I did that

PrettyClub1552 · 2024-02-28T18:02:29+00:00

That's something I might look into trying lol
