Live in or near Phoenix AZ?

I will be doing a working trip to Phoenix AZ from the 9th to the 13th of September, 2010. If you are a southwest dweller, take advantage of this rare opportunity to book a session with Me without having to truck all the way up to the Great White North.

Advance booking is required. I will need to receive your session request via email before September 1, 2010.

I look forward to meeting new faces and spanking new bottoms come fall...

Whips and spankings,

Departures....

I will be travelling quite frequently from the 26th of August to the 5th of October on short trips. If you want to ensure that you catch Me in September while in town, please confirm your potential session dates with Me before the end of August. Alternately, book your session on a date between now and August 26 for more reliable availability (with 24-48 hours notice).

In September, the dates when I AM AVAILABLE AND BOOKING SESSIONS:

Sept. 7 through 23 inclusive.

I will be in Toronto reliably again from October 6 onwards.

Kinky Quote of the Day

"There are two kinds of strengths: the strength to lead, and the strength to follow; alternately put, the strength to control, and the strength to yield. There are two kinds of power: the power to strip away another's soul bare, and the power to stand naked."

-Yaldah Tovah

Mindfuck

I think the following is a very well stated definition of what many mean when they say that they are looking for a domme who can get into their heads, or who can psychologically top them. The following takes the session from a series of mechanical activities to a head trip/mind fuck. Do you agree?

"Emotional buttons are hot spots in a submissive's psyche that can be triggered by a dominant. Pushing someone's buttons engenders within them a loss of self-control. In S/M, we push each other's buttons to open or expand our partner's sensory and sexual experience. We do this by using one type of energy: embarrassment, anxiety, fear, etc. to spark another: sexual tension.

By agreeing to be submissive to you, your partner gives you permission to channel his emotional reactions into sexuality. As his dominant, your mission is to control the flow and intensity of his emotions. You let him emote sexually as you press the buttons that keep him off balance. With his equilibrium distrubed and you controlling his environment, sensations, and movement, he starts to you for stability and security. Even though you are the one causing his distress, as long as you communicate confidence, keep him safe, and erotically stimulated, your control will increase and the session will become more intense." - Miller & Devon.

G8 plus G20 equals a big pain in the ass!

So the world converges upon Toronto, as most Torontonians attempt to get as far out of the city as the possibly can. If you happen to be watching the evening news and see a protester decked out in thigh high PVC boots and a catsuit with a bullwhip in one hand and a megaphone in the other, yelling something along the lines of "MR. HARPER, YOU'VE BEEN A VERY VERY NAUGHTY BOY..."....it may just be me!

Need Your Feedback!

I am working on two new workshops.

One is for men who have submissive desires but who are too afraid of compromising their masculinity (or maybe just too ashamed, guilt-ridden, or afraid) to explore them.

The second is for female partners of men who have kinky desires, in order to help them better understand their guys' kinks.

I am aware that guys aren't necessarily interested in group workshops with other men. Not always into discussing feelings, much less subversive desires, I realize...so I want to ask: What would make you feel comfortable attending a workshop with other guys with submissive interests? What elements would need to be there?

You can either post your feedback as comments or email Me at the_alchemical_seductress@inbox.com.

Thanks in advance!

!On Vacation!

Please note that I am on vacation on the East Coast from June 2 until June 10 inclusive. I will not be booking sessions during that time. I may or may not be responding to queries, depending on whether or not internet access exists where I am going.
If you would like to book something for June 11 onward, please send Me a note. Just know that My response time will not be as quick as usual!

Have a spankingly good first week of June...!
