I don’t really write original stories unless requested or commissioned. My preference is fanfiction, because I don’t have to put as much work into fleshing out the characters there as I would if I were to make OCs.

I’m the opposite as in I’m mostly into OCs instead of fanfiction for some reason.

Thought I should also comment as someone else who has an active story on the forums.
I’m not exactly someone who’s known to be a writer but I would consider myself someone who loves to indulge in written media. So when I thought I could write something with my own spin I started writing. Overall I can admit that the plot of my story, Eureka!, is a very cliche one, where boy meets hot girl that burps and they engage in other activities that causes said hot girl to burp. However, where I do feel that I can make the story interesting is with the personalities of the characters, which to me is honestly the most important thing. But, when talking about basic attractive people and pursing the idea of love, I’d say most lean in that direction because this is a sexual fetish and looks/love are a part of that desire. Additionally, don’t wanna sound shallow, but I enjoy a story way more knowing that its a hot girl burping and she enjoys doing it for whoever it is. And while attractiveness is different for everyone, I lean towards traditional attractiveness.
As a final statement, I feel that the interactions between the characters can make a cliche story way more interesting and relatable and elevate it beyond the plot it’s attached to. Another story where I love the characters is “Party Like it’s 1986” by @thatoneguy

That story is has way too much 80’s kid energy for me, but it’s alright. I skipped until the end and apparently they’re going into a haunted house or something.

Probably cause it’s easier to match your own character’s personally compared to having to worry about making a character OOC.

I can definitely appreciate the attraction aspect. And not all stories that follow the model are bad. I’m trying to think of some that were decent, but I have to go back to the old files.

Thanks for mentioning my story! I’m really glad people are liking it. when i started writing the story, i wrote in brian having the fetish because it’s relatable, and it’s easy to write based off of experience, and i think that’s why so many stories here have a protagonist with the fetish. Looking back on it, yeah it’d be more interesting if i chose to write him not having the fetish, but as you progress the story you kinda have to roll with what you put down.
(also off topic, but the next chapters coming along nicely!)

Hi guys!! Thought I would share some stuff from the perspective of a not straight not boy hehe
I guess it never really occurred to me how cookie cutter some of the burp give I’ve been reading have been. I didn’t really use the straight male protagonist as a self-insert tool and focused more on just the scenarios with the cute girl burping. I don’t know what it says about me, but the development of a relationship isn’t too big of a factor for me for these sorts of stories? Maybe I’m just used to not having that sort of representation, but yeah it never really bothered me having the main character boy meet gassy girl.
Without realizing it though, even if it didn’t bother me, I guess it’s affected how I’ve written and I’ve tried to write? Like of the two burp fics I put up on the old forum, the POV character was the gassy girl on both accounts, and one doesn’t involve much explicitly romantic action! I dunno how effective it is for you guys, but that sort of stuff works fine enough for me.
I dunno I have a lot of thoughts about this but I can’t quite put them into words right now HAHA but yeah, interesting topic!! And nice to see all these writers that I like talking with each other!

I actually kind of like that story! Maybe because it was set in the 80s? I don’t know. But I’m happy to hear you’re going to continue it!

Thank you, @SugarPinkie! I do believe what we read affects what we write (too bad it didn’t make my 11-year-old stories better XD), but it’s also interesting to see how onecan break the story apart and put themselves in where desired.

The stories that I write tend to be slow burns with a long set up at the start to establish the characters and contextualize the kink stuff. Some of my work that aren’t straight-up burping contests have about three or two beIches, sometimes even only one! I feel like if I just rush into showcasing the fetish, then it would make my story more generic and boring. With fewer burps, the belches that are present can have a greater impact because I can describe them in more detail. There’s only so many ways I can say that a belch smells badly before I run the risk of repeating myself. If I’m going to fill my work with essentially ‘hot woman belches and male-insert character gets horny’ repeated ad nauseam, then I might as well have the story be a link to a burping video and it’ll be about as enthralling. I guess I just have too much pride in my work to be that lazy. That’s part of the reason why I don’t write often, because I’d rather craft a couple of stories that are as good as they can be, rather than several subpar tales that will blend in with everything else.
On the other hand, there’s also the constant nagging thought that I’m trying too hard to develop the story and characters. I’m afraid that people who show up expecting to get aroused might leave after reading the first paragraph and not seeing what they came for. I feel like if people don’t see a certain number of burps and belches in my work, then they’ll get bored and leave to fap to something else. Being honest, how many of us skip to the sections of a story that have belching when we read the story more than once, or even try to find belching in stories before truly reading them so we don’t feel like we’re wasting our time? I’ve done both of these things, to the point where a lot of the stories that I favorite on Deviantart/Furaffinity/Eka’s Portal/etc. are things that I’ve only skimmed through to find enough burps and belches to justify the choice. Finding the right balance between plot and kink is like walking on a tightrope, too much kink could disgust readers without the fetish and too much plot could bore readers with the fetish. The preferable ratio of plot-to-kink in a story is clearly subjective, but it’s important that people experiment with their writing style and use unfamiliar tropes to create a story that the reader will remember.

For the amount of belches contained in a piece, I think that there are different flavors of emphasis that can be used. I’ve also trended toward less but more emphasized eruptions over having many interruptive ones. That stated, I know that there’s something I appreciate about strings of onomatopoeia that integrate the eruptions into the environment of the story where it does feel like people are belching a lot as opposed to just happening to catch a big belch or two. Trying to strike that balance feels like a challenge that it’s easy to just prioritize off to one side and lose the value of the other. It’s one of the reasons that I find there are some kind of ‘trashy’ stories that I really end up adoring, because they don’t have that overly restrained self conscious element in holding back eruptions for emphasized contrast, kind of as a parallel to belches themselves with the control/surrender dichotomy between energies. One of the things I’ve been trying to explore in my own work is to have character development and differentiation expressed through how the different characters belch, instead of having the belching be content that needs to be delivered, having it be an integrated part of how things are expressed around interpersonal dynamics and the like.
I definitely share the pattern of doing initial skimming to see if there is content I’m interested in contained in a piece. I generally won’t favorite something without giving it a more in depth viewing, but I do go through an initial search to see if I want to invest the effort, and then if it seems like there’s enough stuff I’ll enjoy I read the piece in depth and may engage in additional interaction with it like commenting/adding something to my favorites.

I think a lot of the stories are the same because the simplicity means the reader can get straight to the point and gets everything they want right away with little build.

This is true, but then there’s no variety. There’s nothing that’s going to make me come back or comment on my story cause they’re dozens of others just like it.

How about a monthly theme and setting for the stories? It could help with the lack in variety in stories when you have to write and keep them in mind. But then again it also wouldn’t work if people didn’t participate or both the theme or subject are hard to write about.
I mainly bring this up because in deviant art a weight gain writers club does something similar to this and people cone up with some pretty good stories.

Why don’t you just try to include burping but not make the story about burping? I mean like, for me,I love surprise burps coming from fictional characters that I consider manly. You guys and girls could just, picture what kind of personality traits love about a burper and just write a story that has absolutely nothing to do with burps, but you could just write some burping but not so frequently, it might be something like burp baiting… burps don’t have to overwhelm such story, they are rare findings… Idk. Also also, for me, sometimes the reaction of individuals to a burp/fart , might actually be more arousing than the burp itself. Example:
Guy1) burps
Guy 2) Gross dude…
Nope…
Example 2:
Guy 1) burps
Guy2) Damm dude, what did you eat!? - guy 2 covered his nose with one hand, waving the other to get rid of that stench, while grinning.
That reaction is indeed a big turn of, as it is entirely different to how I react when my friends or acquaintances burp. It totally boosts the impact that the burp has left in me. So, if you want to write a good story, try to look up for that kind of information. What kind of reaction to the burps would my readers like? What course of action should witness of the burper should take?
A great example about this can be seen in the latest Walking Dead interactive story; check this out.

PLEASE IGNORE THE CHILD BURPING, focus on the teens that should be around 16 17, 18 years old. This is the first time in the whole series that they show burping, so I was thrilled at the moment. Just trying to show how the reaction to a burp can modify its arousing properties. In this case the girl being grossed out by that depiction of “masculinity” by the guys (and Clementine LOL) burping makes the burps better for me.
Just trying to contribute my little grain of salt.
