There once was a bright brass school bell Whose clang could raise demons from hell. At the sound of its chime Classes started on time On late students no others would tell. But one day a bright student thought And prayed that she would not get get caught With a glance to the side … Continue reading For Whom the Bell Tolls

Book of the Month: How to Think More about Sex by Alain de Botton
Something different this month. Thus far, I've only been featuring erotic fiction. While there will still be plenty of that featured here, I've recently delved more deeply into non-fiction writing on spanking, BDSM, and sexuality more generally and will be featuring those books as well from time to time, starting with Alain do Botton's How to … Continue reading Book of the Month: How to Think More about Sex by Alain de Botton
Published in The Spanking Digest
LSF have selected one of my stories for publication in Issue 14 of The Spanking Digest. The Spanking Dress was among the first stories I wrote, and still a personal favourite. I was thrilled to hear that it is now available in a new format. From the publisher: Celebrating diversity in spanking fiction, this issue … Continue reading Published in The Spanking Digest
Book of the Month: Uncle Richard’s Disciplinary Regime by Rachel White
The "floundering young lady rescued by a well-meaning spanking mentor" archetype may be used in many spanking novels, but for good reason. This is one of my favourite types of stories, and of those Uncle Richard's Disciplinary Regime by Rachel White is a shining example. After a rocky start at University, Rachel accepts an offer from … Continue reading Book of the Month: Uncle Richard’s Disciplinary Regime by Rachel White
Those Who Matter
I sent no Christmas cards last year. I had thought this chore was part of growing up, of being an adult. I started my first year out of college, not quite enthusiastically, but dutifully. I sent them to all the relatives in my parents’ database, people I knew of but did not really know. … Continue reading Those Who Matter
Name and Nature
You say “If you need to break the scene, if you need to get my attention, just say my name. <Name> is not Sir, and Sir is not <Name>.” You nod as you say this, so assured of the dichotomy. I nod too, but not from true understanding. The convention will serve its purpose, and … Continue reading Name and Nature
Book of the Month: The Alien’s Little Girl by Rose St. Andrews
I enjoy vanilla science fiction novels, but it's been a while since I've read a spanking-centred one. The Alien's Little Girl by Rose St. Andrews was a delightful read. While this novel is set in an alien world in the distant future, the futuristic elements take something a backseat here, serving mostly to establish a … Continue reading Book of the Month: The Alien’s Little Girl by Rose St. Andrews
About the About
In taking stock of the state of this site, I noticed that my about page was in serious need of an update. With only minor modifications, I've had the same blurb up since opening the site three and a half years ago: I have no idea what I am talking about, but I'm not about … Continue reading About the About
Farewell to 2016
2016 has been a very slow year here- perhaps thankfully; there has been plenty else to be getting on with- personally and on a broader level. Although I haven't been writing here, I have still been writing under my vanilla name. Many of the developments of this last year have highlighted the importance and need … Continue reading Farewell to 2016
To the Security Man at Dublin Airport
Thank you for noticing that I’d accidentally left my floggers in the bottom of my backpack. Better you than my parents. I could have done without the less-than-subtle display and extended Q&A on their identity and use; I’m all for increasing kink-awareness, but the post-screening recombobulation area isn’t an appropriate environment. Again, however, better there … Continue reading To the Security Man at Dublin Airport
