A Northbound Weekend

Being an introvert and therefore allergic to cocktail parties, I have managed to avoid the public scene at all costs despite 6 years as a pro. Lately, though, I find Myself wanting to connect and network with a wider spectrum of kinky people. In the name of this noble pursuit, I dragged Myself out in the pouring rain tonight to Northbound Leather, for their pre-fetish party extravaganza meet and greet reception. Turns out I had a very nice time. Had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Mistress Victoria Windsor, Sir Alex Dark, and David Jackson, editor of DDI magazine, as well as several other kindred spirits.

I am looking very much forward to the TRIBE party tommorrow night. If you see Me, come say hello!

Dental Torture

Even dominatrices need to visit the dentist from time to time. Unfortunately, this being extremely low on My list of favourite ways to spend an afternoon, I had managed to put it off for five months.
Equally unfortunately, five months ended this afternoon.
Maybe it was the laughing gas, but I could swear that everything that came out of My dentist's mouth had ominous overtones. Like,
"I like having people hooked up to the nitrous because the tubes keep them from moving their heads around too much as I inject them with novocaine"
and
"What do you mean you can still feel that?! How about now? Does this hurt? No? How about this?

Oh, the irony...

Happy Birthday to Me!

My god, where has time gone? It's already mid-fall, leaves are turning, it's f-ing cold outside, and wearing My pvc catsuit around the studio no longer feels like I've been sentenced to death by overheating.

In between making sure that errant slaves get their due, I am busily preparing for My seminar on Nov. 3, The Reluctant Dominatrix. I am also about to begin brainstorming other topics for future events, so if there is anyone out there who is itching to learn about something related to BDSM and sexuality, psychology, and/or spirituality, feel free to comment here or send Me an email.

This coming Monday, October 19 is My birthday, and I am wholeheartedly looking forward to seeing what the cat drags in over the week to make Me smile. I never really plan My birthdays, preferring to spontaneously see what adventures arise. I am sure this year will be no different!

Mindfuck 101: Introduction

Anyone can learn the mechanics of BDSM: How to tie a knot, aim a whip, or wield a strap-on. However, as even I can attest from some of my early experiences, a rope, a whip, and a strap-on do not a kick-ass session make. Think back for a moment to some BDSM scenes you have experienced - what made some of them mind blowing, and some of them fall flat?

If I were to really press you, I suspect that you would ultimately conclude that you had the best time when you felt that a Domme really "got into your head", was able to control you psychologically as well as physically, knew your emotional hot buttons and pushed them...or something similar.

A question I get asked frequently by new Dommes and Tops falls along these lines. They are comfortable swinging a flogger and locking the handcuffs, but wish that they knew how to better connect with their submissives and achieve the psychological control that underlies the synergy and dynamic flow of a scene. In other words: "I tied him up, now how to I make him sweat??"

Over the next few weeks I will begin to write about some of the methods that I use in my sessions with clients so that you can try them at home (though admittedly, completing a psychology degree and starting to pay a lot more attention to your intuition are excellent starting points!)

Stay tuned!

Too hot for latex!

So yesterday I pulled on my favourite pair of black leather boots and wandered on down to Church St., site of the Sixth Annual Church Street Fetish Fair: a Folsom Fair North, if you will.

Despite 40 degree temperatures that were making Me slightly regret the boots (but sigh with relief that I wasn't wearing latex), the street was packed with wonderfully pervy people who were there to watch and be watched.

I attended a single tail whip instructional workshop and got several good tips for polishing my technique, and contemplated purchasing several pieces of lovely evening wear for my crossdressing clients but decided against them when the fabric felt too synthetic. I also saw a number of you around and am glad you came over to say hello!

Succumb to shopping I did eventually, and am excited to announce the following additions to my toy and clothing collection: a new leather cockring on a leash, a beautiful pair of red latex elbow gloves, a very unique cat-o-nine tails made out of nylon rope, three pieces of original artwork for my playspace, and a set of Pratt medical grade urethral sounds that I am particularly looking forward to trying!

Any guinea pigs?
