I have never written porn in public because I don't have a laptop, but I have--many times--sat in a coffee house and plotted out porn stories. Even just trying to block scenes and visualizing moving the characters has gotten me aroused, and I find it also helps me focus. I also get a vicarious kick out of watching people walk by and meet my eyes, or look around and smile or nod at others, and I'm tickled that they have no idea what I'm doing, what I'm thinking. I am hoping to get a laptop later this year and can't wait to try writing in public. I even put a Starbucks where I sat and thought into one of my stories.
For the record, I write fanfic but am no less a hard working and dedicated writer for it.

I love your description of it. I am not a writer (should I abbreviate that IANAW?) per se, but I have written naughty letters to my wife using my laptop on a plane. That was HAWT!

On the topic of public sex, the wife and I've done that a few times, but the risk of getting caught keeps the attempts to a minimum. The rush that we get from it is almost all in the "damn, we are so naughty" category. We tend to enjoy the contrast: we're middle class, middle aged, middle looking folks, doing naughty stuff. Oh, and you might have walked by while we were doing it, completely unaware. We enjoy imagining the shock someone might get if they knew.

My hat is off to you, I get shy just writing a normal blog post in public never mind porn. Like Rick above I've done the public sex thing a good few times (shark-infested waters off Western Australia? Oh yes...) but somehow the intellectual aspect of writing about it makes it seem trickier to me. Maybe I'm more of a prude than I thought, have to sort that out quicksmart!

Funny this should come up right now; today I started writing an erotic story while on a break from jury duty.

I felt a little self-conscious at first, then I realized that no one was going to come and read over my shoulder. So it was no big deal.

The one thing I'll never be able to do is draw erotic pictures in public.

Erobintica

This is great! I've always gotten a kick out of writing erotic stuff in public - cafes, waiting rooms (the dentist office - I wrote my entry for one of Alison Tyler's blog contests while my son was in for his semi-annual cleaning; I started a longer story while getting my car serviced - even used their WiFi to do research), the library, the park. Sometimes I have my laptop, but I've written in my notebooks too - and I always have a small notebook with me.

For some reason (no distractions?) I seem to be able to focus better when I write in public too. And it IS fun getting turned on in and keeping it to myself.

As for real sex in public - I've done it, but always been too nervous about being discovered to fully enjoy it at the time. Remembering it is fun - especially for using in my writing.

I love writing porn in public. I've been on cruises where I'll sit with a laptop and watch the ocean on one side and a constant stream of people on the other. And it doesn't hurt that what I write is of the probably-way-more-dirty-than-most-of-these-people-would-find-acceptable variety. I completely understand that feeling you're describing, an upstanding citizen in an upscale place doing something incredibly deviant right in the middle of a crowd. It's a turn-on all on its own.

I'm typically rather shy and would never even consider any kind of actual sex in public.

Rebecca

Actually, I get some of the erotic charge you describe simply from fantasizing about sex while I in reality I am riding BART. I love that I can close my eyes and go somewhere else entirely, despite the crowd of strangers standing around me. It's as if my body is in public while my mind is being fucked silly. Opening my eyes to check what station I'm at provides a jarring but entertaining contrast. And everyone assumes I'm just napping. Wonder how many of the other "sleepers" are doing the same thing?

Rebecca

As for sex in public places, it's definitely the Bad Girl Getting Away With It part that turns me on. I've never been caught and don't want to be. I'm much wiser about choosing place and time than I was in my teens and twenties, in part because of the moral issue of consent.

And I agree with Erobintica that part of the charge -- for many of us, I suspect -- is the telling afterwards.

Owen

I often used the 45 minute bus ride in to work from my suburban home, madly scribbling porn into a composition book with a mechanical pencil, getting hotter and hornier by the minute. I always chose a blank run of pages in the middle of the book. A kind of hiding in plain sight game I played with myself. I'd get so excited sometimes, I'd feel like the next big pothole could send me over the edge. By the time I'd get to my stop, I'd be flushed, my breathing rapid and my blood pressure probably up 10 points over my normal. I loved it. Made the three block walk to my office door agony some mornings. I've been driving to work these days. Miss the time I had to exercise my wordsmithing muscles and exorcise some of the kinks I can't work out in real time.

Phil

Firstly I would like to say, I discovered (stumbled, to be correct) your site an hour or so ago, and have been entranced ever since - thank you so much.

I write porn, occasionally, have never published anything, even on a sex-stories site, but I'm unplugging the laptop as I speak, and heading into town for a couple hours to a WLAN café I know - watch this space...

Kade Azkyroth

...I know *exactly* what you mean. I've emphatically had the same experience, both sides of it, when I wasn't getting distracted by trying to ensure that people weren't actually reading it over my shoulder (having a fantasy life that stretches into the truly bizarre can be a drawback sometimes x.x).

Paradox

You got me thinking with this post. I'm very into both exhibitionism and writing in cafes, although I have yet to write porn in one. (I'll have to try it!)

I ended up writing about how and why I like to do public sex on my own blog. I think it does have a lot to do with being hyper-focused, and the intensity of the contrast with my surroundings. If you're interested, you can read the rest of my post here.

Thanks for the food for thought, as always. I'm a bit of a lurker (the feed reader makes it too easy not to comment) but I always enjoy your writing.
