Mage-physics student Giacob needs sex-powered magic for his summer studies.

Because he's falling hard for both.

When Collegium student Giacob Di Marina applies for an anonymous Alpha to empower him - and his summer mage-physics research projects - the last thing he expects is to fall in love with "Ylyndar" when he doesn't even know his identity. Simultaneously, sparks are flying with the handsome Prince Kal, his much-older research collaborator. Giacob's pretty sure Kal IS Ylyndar… but Kal has sworn to stay single to avoid his father's political machinations. Can Giacob set aside his research long enough to convince Kal to reveal his identity and take a chance on love?

"The Masked Alpha" is a queer magical dark academia romance with multiple erotic encounters, featuring longing, sexual tension, anonymous lovers, knotting kink, versatile alphas, omega switches, and eschewing tradition for love.

As a writer, Radish has been a WAY more exciting platform to publish on so far compared to Kindle Unlimited. They also have a commenting system for bonus audience engagement.

As a reader, I wish there was better filtering / cross filtering, as unless you're there for a specific author it's often hard to dig out the gay content from all the het... but AO3 has clearly spoiled us all. XD

[aelemercier]

When it comes to sex scenes, the rules say things like: Don’t write them at all, and if you do, don’t use these words. Don’t write them silly, porny, dramatic, tragic, pathological, grim, or ridiculous.

My whole practical thesis around the craft of writing a sex scene is this: it is exactly the same as any other scene. Our isolation of sex from other kinds of scenes is not indicative of sex’s difference, but the difference in our relationship to sex. It is our reluctance to name things, the shame we’ve been taught, our fraught compulsion to an act a theatre of types. It is indicative of the lack of imagination that centuries of patriarchy and white supremacy has wrought on us. 

To teach sex scenes is to talk about plot, dialogue, pacing, description and characterisation: all those elements that make a captivating scene. A sex scene should advance the story and occur in a chain of causality that springs from your characters’ choices. It should employ sensory detail that concretises and also speaks symbolically to the deeper content of the story. Or if not, it should service your work of art in whatever ways you want from your scenes.

“Mind Fuck: Writing Better Sex” in Body Work by Melissa Febos

These are some really interesting insights.

I've always assumed that - at least for queer A/B/O - the draw is much the same as writing slash: a safer platform to explore things like gender roles without the baggage that comes with them from my every day life. I love writing regular BDSM (queer), but exploring the A/B/O space has been unexpectedly rewarding for me because of the Spec elements, both for world building and relationship building.

Do male omegas experience elements of our world misogyny? Do issues with pregnancy and motherhood change when men are suddenly experiencing it? (do female alphas experience toxic masculinity?) And as someone who's nearly-trigger levels of repulsed by het pregnancy because of IRL (and personal) issues, mpreg has let me actually explore how making bebbies could be hot and rewarding in a romantic relationship.

(Though also - as a person on the ace-scale, I also love heat/sex pollen tropes because _I_ can't fathom being "uncontrollably horny" for someone in normal circumstances hahaha. And knotting's definitely a fun smut kink.)

tbh the reason i don't really vibe with A/B/O much is bc i find the central conceit much more interesting without the speculative elements. i like dom/sub dynamics, i like characters being so horny for each other that they have a hard time acting normal in public, i like characters struggling with this tension between who they think they ought to be in bed versus what comes most naturally to them, BUT I tend to find these elements much less interesting when they're hard-coded into the setting like that.

i'm sure i could write A/B/O fic that i'd enjoy if i wanted, but i've never bothered bc i prefer to attain that type of relationship dynamic through characterization and that carries less weight if it's also incorporated at the setting level. all A/B/O really has to offer me is some light furry flavoring and i have other, more interesting ways of doing that, too

New Smut App

My feelings are still mixed about Radish, mostly because all their tags are so overrun with trashy het romance that it's hard to find The Gay Shit(TM). But the coins system lets you basically read for free if you watch some ads.

It's positioned as being great for bite-sized reading - commute, read on the can, in line at the bank or whatever.

Anyway - I've got three stories ongoing up there currently if anyone wants to check out the platform and throw me some coins haha. SAMPLE: https://radishfiction.com/writers/13945

No, I think this is pretty normal? POV character choice is based on what suits and serves the storytelling. Now, if by fic they mean FANfic I could see some of these applying more frequently....

(you could argue "I don't decide it just happens" is this answer, aka "the muses decide based on the story". It's a very pantser/gardener answer.)
