Something strange happened recently: a random number messaged me on WhatsApp. Usually, when I exchange numbers with someone I’ve been speaking with (on- or offline) I save their number in my phone or they send a message not long after so I can save theirs. There were no hangers-on in the dating apps I used…

A Speed-Dating Night with Skirt Club
Over lockdown, I joined Skirt Club; a private members’ club for bisexual and bicurious women. Naturally, Covid isn’t very conducive to groups of women flirting in bars and luxury homes – especially now we’re back to the rule of 6 – and so we’ve had to enjoy one another’s company over Zoom. Fortunately, a few…

Next came the speckled purple and blueon my boob, slapped by you. How would my cheek react? Hands around my throatmaking me chokeas…
Dominating Life, Submitting in the Sheets…
As regular readers will know, 2020 has so far been an experience. Not least because I split with my ex just before a global lockdown, or because I’ve got a new job as an erotic scriptwriter for Emjoy, but also because I’ve been delving deeper into the world of kink. I’ve always loved talking to people and finding…
How Does It Feel To Live With An Ex?
Just before lockdown, I broke up with my ex. It was a strange breakup because we lived together in my home with housemates, so it was tricky. We took it slow and cared for one another – then a pandemic hit. Moving back home for lockdown with my family was both a blessing and a…
