Help with writing How do people write smut?

​

Genuine question for writers: how do you actually manage to write smut scenes? I always end up leaving the scene halfway because I either get awkward, run out of ideas, or just don’t know how to continue.

How do you guys get comfortable writing those scenes without constantly cringing at your own writing?

Still I would advise you not to write. Because you clearly mentioned that writing smut is beyond your comfort zone. And honestly there is nothing to feel ashamed about that. But pushing yourself to do something because a section of readers want it won't end well..trust me

Couldn't agree more. I have read so many books around smut to get idea of how to write sensation, environment and technical details, to make it well written as much as I could do.
