Random Porn Inspiration

I have a large file on my computer called Projects. The initial idea was that I would put pictures there that inspired me so that I could refer to them later. The odd nature of erotica means the folder is pretty damn incoherent and all over the place. Which I guess serves it’s purpose. Sometimes I open the file and grab a random image and see what it does to my imagination. The complete lack of organization means that pretty much every image is random.

I don’t have many HNT’s in my folder. I think it’s because I am very aware of how difficult it is to get a good sexy picture of yourself that also hides your identity. Being aware of the limitations takes me out of an inspirational mindset and into a sympathetic critical one. I have to say though, the few I do have are pretty spectacular. I just wish I did a better job of naming them so I know where they came from.

I am surprised by how many Page 3 girls I have in my folder. As a jaded porn writer I feel like I should be somehow too strange to appreciate a simple busty blonde but yet here I am. I think some things are just universal. As much as the internal snob wants to be above what everyone else likes, some people are just beautiful and sexy no matter who is looking at them.

That’s the most important part of an inspiration folder. It has to be honest. It has to include every odd thing that captures your libido. You don’t have to a story about latest TV star who’s on every magazine cover but you can recognize what her appeal is to you and translate those feelings into a story. That folder belongs to you and it does you no good if it’s custom made for what you want people to think of you.
