Fair enough, but can you blame her? …

Lots of great advice for people considering joining a site.I’m also reminded of an interview I did with Desiree …

Call for Submissions: short short BDSM submission erotica—edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel To get a feel for the types of BDSM stories I’m looking for, see my books with a submissive POV such as Please, Sir; Yes, Sir; Please, Ma’am and Yes, Ma’am.

Moments you might otherwise forget. Moments you cherish.
