Meanwhile: I Hate Writing Love Scenes

[madrobins]

Even when (as right now) I think I've established that the two parties do love each other and it's only the admission thereof (and the inevitable repercussions) that have to be written. They just feel...squirmy, not in the Oooo, Ick sense, but in the sense that I so often feel I'm not saying exactly what I want the characters to say. Or what they want me to make them say. Or what the narrative needs them to say.

I will go back and sandblast this scene later, I know. I just hate writing love scenes (it's one reason I stopped writing romances. The other: I really hate writing sex scenes).
