AI art by my Sassa…yes, she’s real and real nice…to me anyway.

My two most prominent reasons for posting a new announcement are to show off Sassa’s gift to me today and share some interesting information I just learned.

The information might not be helpful to most of you, but I will share it anyway.

Dungeoned (and not the good kind)

I just learned today that there is something independent authors refer to as being “dungeoned” by Amazon. This means the book IS available to buy but is basically blocked from being searched, so unless someone just happens to know it is there, then no one will find it!

Lacey Cross of the above link is an erotica author who specializes in Hot-Wife stories. I’ve gotten to know her on BlueSky, and she told me about this. She also told me how to determine if my books were in the dungeon. It turns out three of my five are in it! This includes my novel.

I will be changing to a more sedate cover (the number one reason for being dungeoned) and rechecking my blurbs (the number two reason). It was so lovely of her to check on that for me and take the time when I know she works seventy-plus hours a week writing full-time. Go buy some of her books! For the record, she’s happily married and he knows full well what she writes. He encouraged her to quit her vanilla job and do it full-time!

How-Tos

It might not be today, but I am going to start posting some how-to posts about how to do certain things within a dynamic to improve it and also how some aspiring submissives can train themselves a little by learning how to self-spank, etc.

They’ll be put in a separate category and titled How To at the start so those not interested can bypass them. I will welcome comments, discussion, and questions. I’m thinking that I may require being addressed by a proper title in that category, but I’m not sure if that would be too off-putting, so then no one comments. Thoughts?

Art Suggestions

It has become increasingly difficult to find good bdsm photos outside of a few places on Instagram and BlueSky. If you come across one that you think, “Oh, he’d like that for a story, ” please feel free to email it to me. If I use it, I can credit you for finding it, or a caring reader donated it. It’d be a help to me. Let me know where it came from so I can include that, too. I might be dreaming that this will work, but…ah…I met a submissive that way once.

Oh, for the record, and in case you didn’t read my about stuff. I am poly Dom and not monogamous. All submissives I speak with who should know this are always very aware of it before anything goes anywhere. Gee, I hope I haven’t shocked you. <shrug>
