Morpheous’ Book Released: “How to Be Kinky”

Saturday, August 30th, 2008

Lord Morpheous’ book is released! And even better, he has a kickass launch party planned at the same location as the upcoming Toronto GRUE!
It is shipping all last week so if you ordered it online from amazon.com it will come directly from the distrubution centre in the U.S.  I picked up a few copies of […]

The Curse of the 100 Nawashi!

Friday, August 29th, 2008

Ever wonder what 100 Nawashis looked like?
Here, let me show you:

That’s right, I’ve just received 100 copies of my novel, Nawashi, to bring with me to various events that I’m traveling to in the next couple of months. Those events are:

Spankfestival (Black River Falls, WI) - Sept. 4-7
Central Ohio Perversion Excursion (Columbus, OH) - Sept. […]

Sugasm #144

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

My “Anatomy of a Mindfuck” post made it into the new sugasm, but so did a lot of other great stuff. I especially enjoyed Audacia Ray’s encounter with the conservative world of banking and Marky D. Sade’s introduction (to me, anyway, since I’m late for the party) to the joys of Backdoor Bondage. Enjoy!

This Week’s […]

The Rearing Head of the One True Way

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

I had the following comment on my ropecast blog, in reference to this picture:

It looks like you are doing a Demo here so it is perhaps forgivable, but if my sub ever put it’s hands on my Rope to pull itself up to ease it’s suffering like your white knuckled model is doing here…I […]

The Final Picture on the Tree Shoot

Monday, August 25th, 2008

I wanted to make sure that it was ok with her, but Nyxx has agreed to let me post this last picture from the Tree Shoot Gallery (at the last Spankfest). Most of the other pictures were distance shots, showing the whole tableau (and they really put the “Oh!” in tableau) but this particular one […]

My Brother is the Rigger for Hogtied!

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

Congrats go to Lochai, my brother-in-arms, for his acquisition of the dream job: lead rigger & director at Hogtied.com. I would be jealous of him if I didn’t like him so damn much; as it is, I’m just really looking forward to seeing more of his work. Plus, maybe now I’ll finally get my interview […]

ToroGRUE is Announced!

Monday, August 18th, 2008

A while back I was sitting at my desk job, bored, and decided to read an article on this cool technique for running meetings called “Open Space Technology.” It was based on the knowledge that, at any conference, convention, or structured meeting, the most productive stuff happens in the spontaneous gatherings outside the planned events. […]

Review of Nina Hartley’s Guide to Bondage Sex

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

No, I didn’t do the review…dammit, haven’t gotten on Claire or Nina’s mailing lists. Yet. But there’s a great review of the DVD over at Fleshbot, including a snippet of video. It’s pretty evident that you can learn as much from watching the way Claire handles the rope as from what she says - just […]

Catalina Loves Her Daughter, and You Should Win A Lochai Print

Monday, August 11th, 2008

As a parent and also a sex educator, I have a soft spot for parents doing alternative things while also raising their kids. And while I’ve never met her, I’ve enjoyed and admired the work of Catalina, a sex blogger and Mom who has run smack into some really rotten prejudices and double dealing.
Here’s the […]

The ART of Rita

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

I just got done uploading the edited audio file of Audible Rope Theatre: The ART of Rita. This was a pleasurable fundraising/long term scene between Rita Seagrave and I, where we offered sponsorships to people in exchange for access to (and influence over) a rope scene between the two of us.
The scene is entertaining, hot, […]
