Being in the farafina creative writing workshop has been a very beautiful experience. I've learned plenty and hopefully I've gotten better at this writing thing. We're supposed to do things we wouldn't normally do, "stretching our writing muscles" in Ms Chimamanda Adichie's words.
I haven't really written sex scenes before, not because of religious reasons or because my mother reads my blog (well that's a little chunk of the reason), but because I think sex scenes should be well done. I wouldn't write a sex scene unless I think it serves the story and it would be realistic. No flying monkey stuff for me.
The story I'm putting up today doesn't have a sex scene but is very sexy, please let me know in your comments if you felt it was well done and if it felt realistic.

The stories in this blog are first draft stories with minimal editing, sort of like a practice blog.

Nwachinemere
"Nwachinemere!" He
cried
Dimka’s voice
reflected the bottles of Guinness extra stout he had French kissed until he
coaxed the last drops out, his eyes barely focussed on the young man he was
calling, the song of alcohol in his blood was affecting his senses. The other
men in the bar echoed his call as they welcomed him to the revelry that can
only be found in a Nigerian beer parlour.
