My Mistress: movie review

4 Comments

Long long overdue, though to be fair, the movie wasn’t actually released here until November…

I was emotionally engaged from the start with Charlie as a character.

Harrison Gilbertson (who’s actually 21) is wonderful as the 16 year old boy struggling with events in his life. He has an amazingly expressive face that leans towards vulnerability easily, and he plays a very vulnerable character. I could not stop searching his face for hints of what was going on with him. He delivers just the right notes of hurt, angry, confused and throws some beautiful cheekiness in at … Continue Reading

afterwards kissing
– from ‘Afterwards, kissing’

So strange when I read some of my old posts. Many are born from grand passion, pinpoint-glimpses of bright intensity, and I see those moments through a veil of detachment now. Like they were experienced by a different person. And I also see them anew, and I think ‘Yes, that!’ as if those memories weren’t something I ever had myself, as if they were someone else’s, something to covet from afar.

I miss kissing SO much. Of all things, it’s what I miss most. The heartbreaking intimacy of it, the aggression and violence, the tenderness, the … Continue Reading

PSA: Sex blogs at risk

22 Comments

If you are on Google’s Blogger platform, no doubt you have already seen this policy change about adult content:

Starting March 23, 2015, you won’t be able to publicly share images and video that are sexually explicit or show graphic nudity on Blogger.
–Full policy text here

Obviously this is huge for sex bloggers who share any kind of photos.

I know the first instinct is to get off Blogger and go somewhere else. First port of call would be, I guess, the free WordPress.com platform.

But please be aware that WordPress.com doesn’t allow ‘pornographic content’, and while … Continue Reading

Update on stuff and things

16 Comments

As always when I don’t really feel like hitting ‘publish’ on any of my ramblings, I end up doing a general ‘what’s going on with me’ post, and sometimes that’s enough to kick me out of my stupor, so here it is.

I had a couple of minor surgical procedures in the last few weeks (don’t worry, lovely readers, they are no big deal). One was to take care of some stuff, one was a check for some other bad stuff. Neither are worrisome, but there has been some prep and recovery time that makes me feel a bit … Continue Reading

New year’s eve

15 Comments

I have hated new year’s eve for as long as I can remember.

The crowds, the desperate reaching for fun-times, the drunkenness, the random groping by strangers, the forced joie de vivre, the alcohol-fuelled ‘gis-a-kiss’ demands, the paniced avoidance of strangers’ grabby-handed slobbering on the stroke of midnight. I hated it all.

But it was a ‘thing’ for young people. A big thing. So I tried. Year after year I tried and each time I’d roll up the next morning hungover and remembering the horrible night I’d had navigating the same awful scenarios. I probably did have some good ones … Continue Reading

NaBloRrrrawrMo – The end

10 Comments

NaBloWriMo[SubmissiveGuyComics is also doing a post for our NaBloWriMo project, though he’s hiding some of them on Twitter so if you aren’t following him, you should… ]

 

Aaannndd… day 30 of NaBloRrrrawrMo. 30 days of posts for November. Thirty days: THIRTY-TWO POSTS!

*flops on the couch*

This kind of ‘forced’ writing is interesting. I think it’s good for me. I posted things I would normally sit on for ages, and perhaps never hit ‘publish’ on (thereby adding to the 26,000 words already in my drafts :P). I wrote some very personal posts and experimented with my … Continue Reading
