Once I knew what it was like to submit, I felt fairly comfortable imagining the emotions of the dominant. Also, I did a lot of reading, non-fiction stuff that focused on real-world aspects of the "lifestyle". SCREW THE ROSES, SEND ME THE THORNS is a great place to start.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing.<BR/><BR/>Best,<BR/>LisabetLisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-74863652406998396492009-03-03T07:38:00.000-05:002009-03-03T07:38:00.000-05:00Thanks Connie!

I value your opinion very much!<BR/><BR/>I can't wait to see what you have to say about this subject tomorrow... *G*<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/><BR/>JamieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-32973513962440364562009-03-02T14:15:00.000-05:002009-03-02T14:15:00.000-05:00Jamie, first of all I'd like to thank you for your...Jamie, first of all I'd like to thank you for your very kind words. BDSM is a genre I've always been interested in and hope I do a decent job writing. <BR/><BR/>As some of you might know, Jamie and I share editing chores. She writes something and I do my best to tear it to pieces, and visa versa. I think we both do darned good jobs at it. I've read most of her work for the last couple of years and while I have to admit she started off pretty tentatively, and needed a little guidance, I think she's done an amazing job with her BDSM work. <BR/><BR/>Okay, having said that, I also want to add that Jamie's strong point is what she loves, dialogue. She's got a way of bringing her characters alive through their speech. When she struggles the most is when she gets into unfamiliar territory and doesn't have her characters talk to each other. When they do, I often have to go back and edit what I've just been swallowed up by. She dose it so well, I forget why I'm there. <BR/><BR/>And, about BDSM writing in general. There are degrees of BDSM, and D/s as there are in most aspects of human relationships. Some people will think we're horrid for dealing with such a pornographic topic. Others will say we're skirting the edge of a much deeper/darker lifestyle. There's just such a wide variety of degrees to this. Yes, a safe word and continuing conversation could be needed for some. And, in a perfect world there'd never be any abuse among those who practice BDSM. You've also got the couples who dabble in it, never needing more than a wink and a smile to signify it's spanking night. Others may have a ritual that'd knock your socks off. <BR/><BR/>Uh, and Jamie, Switching Seth is one hell of a book. <BR/><BR/>HugsJude Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14067166768734750026noreply@blogger.com
