I started a story two three days ago finished the 50 pages yesterday.
The basic scenario is that an engineer, mistakenly becomes very rich, and gets his dream lady (no not a robotic woman). Or, if you take it from the woman’s perspective a rejected woman, gets her dream partner and a dream life. Or if you take the police perspective, they get to eat fish and chips whilst the dream couple escape (in a very slow James bond style) under their noses.
But, it does present some challenges. Whilst I have no problem filling pages and pages to detail the electrical supply (which still needs a proper experts eye to check it), I am struggling to describe a very cold, wet woman putting on makeup. And do you put on the makeup, before or after the really expensive dress? And does the war paint require an undercoat?
Also, I do feel that women’s shoes ought to have better type definitions. “What kind of shoe is this” … “black” comes the consultant woman’s reply. And what is the technical name for the clips on a suspender belt that hold the stockings? Doesn’t know. And, there has got to be a gap in the market for all terrain high heels. Because as soon as the story departs from a firm flat surface, the glamorous women can’t move any where.
As for sex. If sex were solely in the hands of engineers, the human race would go extinct. Because there are so many aspects that just haven’t been thought through. And you can’t be too explicit, but writing “Ooh ooh ooh ooh” sounds like a chimpanzee.
However, it’s not quite finished, because I do think I should enhance the character development of the sheep.
