Seeking pointers on writing first-person werewolf TFs

Werewolf1361 · 04-15-2016

I've always enjoyed writing TF scenes in which the character transforms into either an anthro or full werewolf. I generally try to do them from the perspective of the person transforming but have never been happy with end result. What advice would guys offer? I like exploring what the transformation feels like. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Have you ever had an injury or done extrenious workouts? Have you ever moved a couch for someone? Have you ever had rough sex that leaves marks on your body (or hers?) Have you ever been bitten by a dog or scratched by a cat? Have you ever been sick or had a fever? Have you ever been drunk?

Use those real world experiences and insert them into the description without actually saying they feel like those. Instead, describe them how you would a real world event.

Don't say something like... "My back feels like I lifted a couch!"

Instead, write something like. "I couldn't move and when I tried to there was an incredible surge of pain running down my spine! It was hard not to panic and panicking only made it worse."

Stuff like that.

Good luck!

... and remember, as long as this is a complete invention, this would be whatever you really want to be, that simple.

Depends on the trigger and how painful or not painful it is for the victim.

This might sound obvious, but I think my transformations work best when I make myself really feel them. I have to really put myself in the moment and imagine what I would be thinking and feeling, what would be happening beneath my skin and what kind of sounds I'd hear.

What would it feel like to grow a tail? Well, you'd probably feel something in the back of your pants straining against the fabric, pinching, throbbing as it swelled. Maybe it would rip through, splitting your pants so they fell down around your ankles and leaving you suddenly naked. You'd feel a strange movement behind you, new muscles working, and you'd turn to see a big, hairy tail growing from the base of your spine, swishing back and forth. I would just go through each step of the process like that, imagining the searing pain of my gums as my teeth grew into fangs, imagining the pinch on the tips of my ears as they became pointed. Werewolves aren't even one of my kinks, and I'm getting myself kind of excited here!

If you're really into it, a transformation scene can go on and on. Readers probably aren't going to complain that a book had too many vivid, sexy transformations scenes!
