Sometimes. I think writers, poets, singers, musicians, artists, etc are all just a little sexier than someone that is not as talented. A creative mind is sexy.
Thank you to everyone for all the responses. It's continually insightful with each comment.
Just to let anyone know who might be reading, and is somewhat skeptical of the idea, I don't mean potential friendship or romance judging from how someone has written their story. That might well be possible, but all I mean is would you be tempted towards or curious about sexual interaction with the author because there was something in the writing that intrigued you.
Absolutely! Great question btw
I remember the first authors profile I read I immediately wrote to him before I even read one of his stories. I was so drawn to him and his words. His stories are just icing on the cake. He is one of my all time favorite friends.
I have had many conversations with authors over the time I have been on Lush and not one of them has ever not been amazing to talk to even in just casual conversations.
The mind is a beautiful thing and to be able to talk to people who can express themselves so Lushiously is simply amazing.
So I apparently do get attracted to the authors well their minds anyway.
No...I don't usually come here to read stories, but the many offerings I have checked out in past years
I was most intrigued for their mind able to pen such erotic tale...even though they weren't always so experienced

Talent can be an attractive quality, but not in all things.
It does make ya wonder which they're truly like in real life though.
Cummunist / Sinfluencer / Mod
I find talent to be distinctly attractive, so yes.
Curiosity is one of those insatiable passions that grow by gratification.
Yes, very, if I read something I like I want to know more about who (and why) they wrote it.
Yes. I've talked to a couple of people on here very personally based on their writings being so sexy.
I think many of the friendships I've formed on here started out with me reading their stories and liking them. After stories I always check out their profile and between the two I can decide if I'm attracted to the person. I suppose Forum postings have an impact as well because it's hard to be attracted to a person who has views diametrically opposed to your own when your only interactions are via chat, DM or messaging.
The things I love in life are people and art and knowledge. When you combine them it is heavenly. I think literature and writing are a necessity of life. When they are done with talent and joy; when they share their very soul; when I feel what they are feeling and it speaks volumes in just a handful of words it moves me. It inspires me. I like being inspired and I am aroused by the urge to get to know them better. Including in a sensual and loving way, especially when they are creating erotica.
No.
I am attracted to people by their personality. I like people who can make me laugh or cry.
I’m an extrovert who loves conversation. I’m also Italian and have the gift of gab.

I can't say I get "attracted" but I will say this - If the writing is erotic and it's stimulating enough? It does make me want to meet them and find out if they are as good in person as they are online. Which most times people aren't. They can be someone else behind their computer.
But it does make me want to find out if some of the sexual stuff they write about is something they've done or could do.
For me, reading a good story, be it the storyline or twist, the perspective or style, is likely to stir intrigue. In the same way a well crafted profile or engaging conversation in a chatroom or forum does. And if there is intrigue then I’ll want to look further, from the the authors profile to their other stories. I think the stories posted paint a good picture of the author, their likes and style, so if there is something that connects I think it is possible to be drawn to that person and their way with words. I think you soon know if there is a connection and mutual likes, the catalyst that can be a steamy story...
It is too easy to believe the writing reflects the writer. However, good writing or interesting settings will usually reflect an interesting mind, I have found. And from that can flow all or nothing
I developed a unrequited infatuation with classmate in a creative writing class back in college, based primarily on our reading and feedback groups.
If someone knows how to use words, no matter the type of fiction, I might become attracted to them.
