Back when I first started this whole blogging thing, I came out to a vanilla friend. I was about to get together with a man I met online and needed someone to act as a safety call. It seemed a good idea to clue her in a bit, though this was not a decision undertaken … Continue reading The View from There

Much to Learn: Housewarming
With thanks to Paolo of Wholebean and I Sarah and Mark's Story began here Sarah stood over the remains of the clothes airer, in shock at what had just transpired. It was like a scene from a bad horror movie, or perhaps a video game. She had been cleaning, no- waging battle on, the apartment for the … Continue reading Much to Learn: Housewarming
A Quiet Kind of Fire
A while back a question was posed to Dom With Pen on whether a submissive must have "fire in her eyes." While that wilfulness definitely has it's appeal, I'd like to say that it is far from a requirement in all cases. Submission does not always need to be a battle. There are dominants who … Continue reading A Quiet Kind of Fire
Finding Home
Her thoughts weren’t toiled or roiling, nothing as violent as that. Just gently lapping waves, unrelenting in their movement and somehow completely incapacitating. Her laptop screen remained blank before her, finally giving into the black darkness of electronic hibernation as her mind floated along with the music, each track dredging up new old memories from … Continue reading Finding Home

But she was an apprentice now- the position she had sought for so many years was now hers. … Continue reading The Apprentice: Graduate Work, Part 1
The Evils of Pornography

Pornography can be a wonderful thing. Enjoyed … Continue reading The Evils of Pornography
Watchfire
Kara had wanted to be a watcher ever since she had first been allowed to attend the meets. She remembered frolicing around the great fire with the other children, caught up in the revelry, but she also remembered standing on the outskirts of the gathering. She had been enthralled by the sight of the watchfires … Continue reading Watchfire
(Forcefully) Guided Submission
I’ve read a great deal about how some strong women want to be forced to submit to the one they love. It is a part of their nature, but it does not come naturally until their partner brings it out. These are fascinating and lovely people, and the dynamic these couples have is magical. But … Continue reading (Forcefully) Guided Submission
