My problem is I'm not comfortable writing any graphic sex. I just don't feel I can write a story which is erotic, detailed, hot, in character, and well written all at the same time, and I've struggled with every single sex scene I've ever written, m/m, f/f, m/f, or other.

That is exactly my problem. I don't like writing sex scenes because as much as I post about my incredible lust for DB and about my personal life, basically I'm a prude. Well, not necessarily a prude but I'm very self-conscious when it comes to my body and sex. It's not easy for me to write sex scenes because they can be so revealing, and I constantly struggle with the sex. Keeping it in character, keeping it hot--and I freely admit that my sex scenes are not hot--and not backing away are my biggest struggles. I signed up for smut_69 because I thought it would be a good chance for me to push my boundaries. And since I signed up for it back in November or hell, maybe even earlier, I've written three. I'm just not comfortable writing sex, but I *want* to be.
