Introducing: The Spanking Collection



Regular readers know that I very seldom promote products, but this project is something truly unique. It's a new book conceived and edited by Abel and Haron from The Spanking Writers. It contains twenty original spanking stories written by twenty authors from around the world. None of these stories has ever appeared anywhere else. Best of all, the proceeds from the sales of The Spanking Collection will be donated to charity.

My contribution is a short story entitled "Suite Two." It involves a couple on vacation in the beautiful Arizona desert. A lost suitcase threatens to ruin their trip, but ingenuity and passion win out in the end.

I enjoyed reading all of the stories and I know MBS readers will love them too. To learn more and to obtain your own copy of the Spanking Collection, click here.

Recap: MBS Sunday Brunch for Aug 28

Our topic this week was the moment when we recognized that spanking would be a permanent part of our lives.

Neo Dom Tom: As the spanker, I can say about two years ago I spontaneously held what I called "slave night" with my wife. I told her she had to do everything I demanded for the evening. At one point, she touched my cock without permission and I spanked her for the first time. It was a mock punishment for not asking permission. From that first slap two years ago, I knew I was hooked. We had already been married three years at that point, so I was really, really lucky that she was fine with it. She has since come to enjoy a good spanking!

Emily: My moment was when Jake told me that he wouldn't spank me. I had never been so disappointed. I didn't realize how much that kind of attention meant to me until I was told it wouldn't be a part of our lives. Lucky for me, we reconsidered. :)

CurtisG: It was when I found that spanking turned me on. I was in the second grade (although I couldn't define "turned on" then). I just had a burning feeling when my pretty second grade teacher picked up a classmate, put him over one knee while leaning against a wall and gave him a birthday spanking. From that point on, spanking was always at the center of my nocturnal fantasies, my explorations in various media and finally in play beginning in the seventh grade. I never stopped.

Michelle Carlyle: It was the first time I came from a spanking. I was HOOKED!

Hermione: The enjoyment of spanking has always been a part of who I am. It has turned me on for as long as I can remember, so there wasn't any event that suddenly opened my eyes. It's nice to know that I'm not alone in my preference.

Daisy: I knew from about age ten that it fascinated me, but after it was a disaster in my first marriage, I didn't expect it to be part of my life again. Then I met Davey. After some sexy exploration on the internet, and discussion on the subject with him, and some experimenting, I knew it was here to stay!

Six of the Best: While as a schoolboy in England, a female teacher who I had a crush on, came late to school. Since, excessive lateness was punishable by spankings, I dreamed that this female heartthrob of mine, deserved to be spanked. In my opinion, she deserved 'six of the best,' the very best strokes of the cane, on her bare bottom, delivered by me.

MarQe: It was in my teenage years when I realised that I simply had to get my hands on a Janus, Februs or Roue magazine and devour it (You know, in the way teenage boys do!) ;) Also, it dawned on me that I only really fancied girls if their bottoms met my exacting standards! If only I'd had chance to spank them all!

Dr. Ken: For me, it was when I first fell in love with a lovely lady who was also a spanko. I knew right away that a vanilla relationship was never going to work for me, and spanking was always going to be a mainstay of my life and any future relationships.

The lady, alas, is no longer with us, but the realization remains...

Prefectdt: I realized that spanking was going to be with me forever in a psychologist's consulting room. After extensive consultations, we had traced the point when I stopped being able to cope with the normal downsides of life back to the time, just over three years previously, when I had given up the spanko lifestyle. I can't remember the exact words that she used, but it was something like this, in a strong Africana (South African) accent.

"For God's sake man. All you need to do, to cope with life, is to go out and get your bottom smacked now and then. What the bloody hell did you give it up for?"

She had a very surprising "Pull yourself together" approach to human nature that was not what I had expected. She was right about the spanking, even though I think that she was vanilla (as far as I could tell). It was when she said that, that I realized that TTWD was going to be with me always and would never go away.

Red: I was given a bare bottom spanking at about age seven. I knew almost immediately that I wanted another and have been craving them ever since. I'm now 62 and am fortunate to have an accommodating wife.

Keiter: I had an occasional babysitter when I was pre-adolescent who was beautiful, dark, sexy, and I fantasized about her nightly. I most enjoyed dreaming of spanking, even whipping her. In high school, I dated a dark haired, sultry beauty who liked to tease. I put up with it for a while, but soon got fed up with her games, and pulled her over my lap. Imagine my surprise when she smiled and bared her own bottom invitingly!

Jean Marie: My experience was very different. I always felt like a freak for fantasizing about being spanked or punished. In elementary school, I saw a female peer spanked in front of the class and was both horrified and mesmerized. It wasn't until I was almost through college that I reluctantly shared with a boyfriend my fantasies, almost in tears, terrified that he'd be repulsed by me. He spanked me very hard and I fell deeply in love.

Lea: The interest had always been there, but it wasn't until searching the internet a few years ago that I found a group of like-minded people and realized there was a lifestyle for all this. After sharing all of it with my husband, we tried it out and have been doing it ever since.

Bobbie Jo: I believe I have had an interest since I was five. I would avoid it as much as possible, though. By the time I was in middle school, I had played out some fantasies with a couple of friends, but nothing really intense. I did have a therapist spank me which should not have happened. I was in my early 20s at the time.

Right now, at age 61, I am still unsure about TTWD and if it will be a part of my life. I know it won't go away and that bothers me, as I am sure you all understand. I don't have a partner and I am going to seek out a professional for the first spanking by someone who knows what they are doing. It will be interesting to see what happens and how I feel about it.

Welcome, Bobbie Jo, and best wishes with your journey of discovery. I hope you'll let us know how things work out.

Emanuele: As long as I can remember, spanking to me has been sexual. Over the years, I have often been forced to hide that part of me to find some acceptance. One of the benefits of growing older is that I don't really care what others may think of that.

Since I had any idea what sex was, this has been a priority for me. It's as important as breathing. Currently, I am in a vanilla marriage, 14 years worth, and I still find it better than being alone.

Since I am an eternal optimist, I still will not yield.

I started blogging because I was getting desperate and found this amazing online community. I have to say that even lurking around the edges of your worlds is better for me than trying to hide myself away. I had to exaggerate the possibility that I might make some money this way, but realistically, I have never written or done anything like this before.

I am still an optimist and want to spank or be spanked by my wife more than anything.

Thank you, Bonnie, you have helped me in many ways.

You're very welcome!

Simon: Like some of the other correspondents, I first realised that I was interested in spanking when I saw one of my classmates slippered in gym class. I was fascinated by her red gym shorts and the squirming of her bottom. Nothing much happened for a few years and then I discovered that there were magazines devoted to the punishment of women. I started buying as many as I could afford. Also at this time, I realised that I was also interested in being spanked by women. That was many years ago. Since then, I have been lucky enough to spank a few ladies and to meet my mistress who certainly knows how to treat a naughty boy.

SublimeWifey: I'd always enjoyed a swat or two during sex, it heightened the experience and thereby the orgasm. But this summer, as Hubby and I have begun to take our BDSM thing a bit more seriously, I find that spanking is my favorite part. I enjoy the bondage and the following orders and the other forms of submission, but when that first swat lands hard, I'm in the zone. I also love how it lingers afterward. Even without marks or bruises, that tingly heat lasts for hours. Mmm. That's how I discovered I'm a spanko!

Welcome SW. That sure sounds like fun!

Bonnie: Like many others, I've had this interest for as long as I can remember. But as a kid, I carefully hid it from the world. I felt I was different and could not be accepted for the person I am. As a teen, I hoped this troubling obsession would disappear once I had a regular boyfriend and a “normal” sex life. It didn't go away. I brought it up to various boyfriends, but they couldn't, or at least didn't, understand. I felt frustrated and alone in my freaky-ness.

Then came Randy. With him, spanking was more than all right. It was fantastic. That was when I knew my place was beneath his hand.

I'm am so glad we have the internet today as a source of information for young adults who struggle with such issues. I am grateful whenever I get the opportunity to tell the next generation of spankos that they're not alone and that their interest is shared by many happy, successful, loving people. I hope their path will be easier and smoother than ours.

Thank you all for participating. See you next week!

Most Embarrassing Spanking

A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I were traveling for a combination of business and pleasure. He had a quick freelance engagement on the opposite side of the country. We figured that it would be fun if we both went and then stretched the trip by a few days. We had done something similar last summer with excellent results. The short version is that we had a great time, saw a part of the country we hadn't visited, and ended up with very economical vacation.

However, there was one very embarrassing spanking. It happened at the airport, and I wasn't even the one who got spanked. We were waiting in the departure lounge at the airport. Randy picked out a prime spot where a row of uncomfortable blue chairs backed up to a wall. There was a convenient electrical outlet where he could plug in his laptop. Soon he was clicking away as I read my book.

The trouble started when he announced that he wanted to visit the restroom before we got onto the plane. He handed me the running laptop with instructions to "Take good care of it." I decided to check in with this blog and make sure everything was OK. I quickly determined that all was as it should be and began browsing through my Good and Hot links. Having not been on in days, everything was new to me and the blogs were abuzz with the latest happenings. Knowing Randy would be right back, I quickly clicked from link to link hoping to glean as much goodness as I could. Then it happened.

As soon as I clicked on a link to a fairly well known blog, I heard the unmistakable screams of a woman being severely spanked. Whack! Ahhhhh! Whack! Ow! Whack! Nooooo! It was loud and everyone within fifty feet had to have heard it.

I quickly snapped the laptop shut in hopes that would silence this horrid punishment scene. But the spanking continued for several more seconds. I put the laptop between the seat and my back in hopes of muffling the screams. I know it went on only a handful of seconds, but it seemed like eternity to me. My face must have been as red as that poor girl's bottom. I felt everyone's eyes boring into me, but I couldn't bear to look up. I just hung my head in profound disgust and despair.

"What's the matter?" Randy inquired upon his return. His voice registered genuine concern.

"Never mind," I said, "I'll tell you later." With that, I handed him his laptop with the dire warning, "Please, please don't open that until we get home."

Fortunately, he believed me. Back in its case it went.

We laughed later about my web surfing misfortune, but the mortification I felt was very real.

Bloggers: Please don't use loud audio that plays automatically.

Readers: When you're in a public place, please mute your audio before you begin browsing.

Take it from the voice of experience, accidentally outing yourself is no vacation.

Recap: MBS Sunday Brunch for Aug 21

Our question of the week concerned brunchers' “next big thing” in terms of spanking. These could be plans, dreams, or curiosities. Here are your thoughts.

S.N.M.: I'm a switch, but I've only ever managed to find submissive women. I've spanked a few times over the years, but I was beginning to despair of ever finding the elusive heterosexual domme and getting to indulge my submissive side.

However, I recently started dating an absolutely wonderful young woman who is downright eager to tie me up, spank me, and do other naughty things to me while I'm helpless. We're supposed to have our first real spanking session this afternoon.

Six of the Best: How about a political role play matching Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann? Whoever makes the most gaffes during this political season is given 'six of the best' with a cane on her bare bottom by the President.

Hermione: Recently, I bought two new wooden implements. I'm giving Ron one for his birthday and one for our anniversary. I'm anxious to see what he thinks and I'm looking forward to feeling them (I think).

I would also like to try a cane, so that's something I'm looking into purchasing in the not too distant future.

Daisy: I would love to try a leather implement, maybe a leather paddle. The only leather implement I have ever been spanked with is his belt, which I love. So I would really like to try something else in leather next time I go out.

Poured Out: I think Sir would love to do the political role play that Six of the Best suggests. I don't think I would be successful at that role play though. But that might earn me my first spanking for being a bad girl. Right now, I'm just a good girl who gets spanked. A LOT!

Newports.sub: We are thinking of trying a single tail whip which both frightens and excites me. Yikes!

Lea: I haven't purchased any new implements, but a fearful fascination with the cane is always at the back of my mind. The next big thing I'm waiting for is heading on a vacation to a spanking weekend in under a month!

Jean Marie: I want to have my limits tested. Our sessions are "too consensual" if you know what I mean. Just once, I don't want it to be nice and giggly and controlled. I want my boyfriend to tell me that there's no safeword as he roughly puts me over his knee and bares me and punishes me hard and long. I want him to make me get up off his knee to fetch a whole variety of implements. I want him to wear me out. I'm aroused just writing this, so I know I would be for real. Afterward, I want my man to take me, rough, hard and rigorous.

Red: We live near Albuquerque, New Mexico. Sandia Peak is the highest point in the area at about 10,700 feet. This is at least a mile higher than the city. My goal is to be spanked at the top of the mountain overlooking the city below. Being in a public park this may be difficult, but it may be possible during winter.

My plan is to go to the top of the mountain on a day unlikely to have many visitors (previous New Year's Days have been reasonably private). Have a toy available. Provide the obvious invitation to my mistress if it is possible.

Gracie: As I've mentioned in my blog, I get giddy when I find marks, so I'm going to have to go with harder spankings. We're pretty frugal, so we tend to use whatever is lying around. So far, that's been okay. I'd like to get my hands on some traditional tools eventually, but for now, I'm sticking with working up to awesome marks.

Our Bottoms Burn: Our spanking life has always evolved slowly. Only a few years back, Bacall started to favor wood over leather. This summer, she has become paddle proof, taunting me with words like, “Is that all you have?”

We have started to play in more rooms. For instance, she likes to kneel in the window seat, look out and feel the burn in her bottom.

Ronnie: I'm considering buying a wooden paddle with holes. Wood is not a real favourite of mine, but I've always wanted to try a paddle with holes.

Taken In Hand: I just made my wife what can only be described as the yard stick from hell, and honestly, I don't know what I was thinking.

It's made from a very nice piece of maple that I had laying around. It was brought down to 3/8" thick, and the business end is cut to 25" long by 1.5" wide. It also has a nicely shaped 7" handle that fits the contour of my wife's hand just right. It's finished with a very thick glossy poly finish. If it looks as good as it spanks, my butt is in for a major roasting very soon.

Scunge: I would love to try a TRUE English caning.

Nick: How about a doubled up belt while I bend over the side of the bed with my pants down?

Anon: I've only been spanked by hand. I think I want to move on to leather, a belt maybe, or a crop. But as much as I say that, it scares me. I like to get red, but I don't think I want to be bruised (and I'm a little afraid that I'll like it too much).

MarQe: Scarlot does not know it yet, but she will be put into the wheelbarrow position and paddled soundly!

A'Marie: I want to be more adventurous with implements. So that's definitely my next step. And with a bit of trepidation, I want to try a cane because I want to know what all the fuss is about. ;)

Kiwi Girlie Girl: I'd like to try a leather strap or leather paddle.

Hermione - Be careful what you wish for. The cane hurts. Let me know what you think when you have tried it. It's been a while since he used it and now I'm scared to death again.

I also want to be restrained during a spanking. We may be looking into trying that soon.

Prefectdt: One thing that I have never tried and always wanted to, is a birch type bundle made from the newly grown stems of Cornus alba (Siberian dog wood). I hope that that is the next thing on the agenda.

Bonnie: I've talked for years about wanting a real spanking bench, but we've never gotten one. That's still tops on my list.

Thank you all for joining in our weekly brunch conversation.

Recap: MBS Sunday Brunch for Aug 14

Our topic for the week was the classic most memorable spanking question. Here are your favorites.

Luna: My first adult spanking has to be the most memorable and probably not because it was my first, but because it gave me a taste of what I had been missing in my sexual life. For the first time, I felt that what I was craving was accepted, relished and pleasurable. I knew that by the time it was over and the bruises had settled in, I was going to be hooked.

Seven years later, I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life. I don't try to recreate moments that left such a strong memory, but it is fun to reflect on them to get the heart racing.

Joeyred: I was part of a group spanking. Five lovely ladies and this very lucky guy were spanked with our elbows on a pool table. The spanking was very hard, a punishment for some naughty deeds. What made it most memorable for me was the group hug when the punishment was over. It was a moment in time that I will never forget with five people who will always be special to me.

MarQe: I spanked my wife in a hotel in Stratford Upon Avon after a night at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. It was my 40th Birthday treat! I also have a feeling I will long remember spanking the delightful Scarlot just a few weeks ago. She is relatively new to the scene and a delightful squirmer when the hard ones were given!

Hermione: My most memorable spanking was the one that ended a long period when there was no spanking in our lives. Ron took it upon himself to tell me what he had planned for the weekend, and even phoned me at work to describe his process of selecting just the right implement.

That spanking reconnected us on a much deeper level and put me in touch with my submissive self. It also heralded a new beginning in our spanking relationship. We have since gone from strength to strength. Best of all, it led me to start searching for spanking topics online, and ultimately to the blogging world I am now so much a part of.

Michelle Carlyle: My favorite memory was my 44th birthday at the Embassy Suites. I had five hundred Long Island Iced Teas and gave my husband a script of things I wanted him to do to me. Most. Fun. Ever. Amazing spankings, paddlings, whipping with a riding crop, and made love to in every position imaginable. Wow. It was the first time I was ever left with marks. This alarmed him, but they reminded me of the outstanding evening. Whoo-hoooo! Say... I think my birthday is coming up shortly. And I have an idea...

A'marie: My most memorable was the first, definitely. I was in college and I had admitted to my partner the desire for spanking, but we'd never tried it. I was being, uh, slightly bratty, and before I knew it, I found myself bent over a bed as he was pulling his belt off.

It changed my relationship because until then, it had been just an intriguing interest. There was still the possibility that I'd try it and hate it, right? So this spanking marked the realization that no, this mildly kinky little desire wasn't going anywhere, and damn it was something I needed more often.

I'vd never tried to recreate it, but that is undoubtedly due to my personal feelings about the ex-partner. ;)

Kitty: My most favorite spanking to date was when Daddy spanked me and gave me an orgasm from spanking alone. There was no stimulation other than his hand spanking me. It was so off-the-charts incredible that I can't imagine going back to my pre-spanked self. For those interested in the whole story, it's called Daddy Did It Last Night. ;)

Lea: My first adult spanking will always be memorable for being my first. I wouldn't say it was the best I've ever received because we've evolved since then. But it stands out with a few other moments. A few months ago, I had my first scene where I was spanked along with another bottom. That was fun and a very different dynamic for me, so it stands out in my mind as well.

I don't think those times can really be recreated. Especially the first time, those are very unique feelings experienced when things are brand new. The spontaneity of some events adds to it being memorable and something that can't be copied.

Anon: Oh my, yes! It was one night back in the early 80's when I asked my wife to spank me. We had almost no furniture at the time, but after she spanked my bare bottom in the living room, she called me into the bedroom. She'd lit a candle and put on an ankle-length formal skirt but was wearing no top. I went over her knees on the foam mattress we were using for a bed and she spanked my bare bottom. I will always remember her beautiful, bare breasts hovering over my reddening butt. I wrote in my journal about how wonderfully it stung. If I had any night I could re-live with my wonderful wife, that would be it!

Gracie: Hi! Thanks so much for listing my site on your blogroll!

I remember my spankings, but I feel like we're still making progress, so they're actually getting better. My Sir is starting to spank me most every day when it wasn't previously part of our activities. I've also given him some pointers about what to do, based on what I've read, and we're working from there. I think my favorite lately has to be one with the belt. It hurt, it felt wonderful, and it briefly raised the skin. Just glorious.

Hi Gracie, and welcome!

Mikki: No. I'm sorry to say that I don't have an awesome first spanking story. My first one was when, over several days, I had asked my husband several times for my first spanking. I think he was irritated and frustrated. He really didn't know what to do or what I really expected. I was lying on my belly, trying to talk to him, when he rolled over and asked whether I really wanted it. I said, “Yes... I think.” He pushed back the covers and administered six very hard, very fast and not so fun or kinky or anything but true spanking swats.

All he said afterward was "Is that what you wanted?" I replied, “Yeah, I guess." We both rolled over and went to sleep. I kinda think of it as a bit of a punishment for nagging him into spanking. But don't worry. We have since come a lot closer to perfecting TTWD.

I don't nag him to spank anymore. Lesson learned!

Make Mine Red: I love everyone's stories! Thanks for using my idea, Bonnie. :)

I would have to say that the first time he actually spanked me is most memorable. It was simply with his hand, but it was incredible because of all the emotions involved (I was nervous. Would I really like it as much as I thought? Then the realization that YES I did really like it!). Until then, I had a hard time convincing him to actually do it.

That wasn't the best one. He's since fully embraced it and gotten much better at it. We also have some really fun implements now. The first was most memorable because he FINALLY did it. I can't imagine going back to pre-spanking days. I actually crave it. No, I don't want to recreate that one because several since have been so much better and I would rather recreate those. :)

Thank you, MMR, for an excellent idea!

Daisy: My most memorable was after he gave me what had been promised for over a year, the mother of all spankings. Remember, we are on different continents, so over the year apart, there had been many occasions where I cheeked him, argued with him, etc., over the phone. He always said that when we were together, he would make me sorry! As the time drew near for my visit, he began telling me what a severe spanking I had earned, and I suppose I built it up in my head. When it eventually happened, it was nowhere near as bad as I expected. I felt half relieved, half peeved that this was so. I had waited a YEAR, for THIS?

After the sting wore off (a couple hours at most), I began hinting for more, but he was relaxing and watching TV. Finally, sulking at the lack of interest, I huffed and declared I was going to BED! I flounced out the room, slamming the door. (Sure to work, right? WRONG)

Still no response. I lay in bed, so cross, I mean, I had flown halfway across the world to be with him for two weeks, and he was watching TV? I sulked myself to sleep (It was only about 8pm!).

I was woken by his voice, calling my name as he flipped me on to my front. He began spanking my bare bottom, with his hand, really hard. Every smack stung like blazes and he kept going and going and going. At the same time, he lectured and told me off, declaring that he would spank me when HE decided, not when I did. The severity would be up to HIM, not me, and that he was not my puppet. I cried. I begged. I pleaded. I writhed. I apologised. But nothing stopped him. I hit subspace. I eventually gave up struggling against the pain, and accepted it. Suddenly, it was different. It was awesome. This was not the spanking I had wanted, but it was exactly the one I needed. It bred a whole new respect for him.

I was totally exhausted, physically, mentally, and emotionally, by the time he stopped. He held me close, and I sobbed into him, relaxing at last. We fell asleep together, him holding me, me clinging to him the way a drowning man clings to a lifebelt. When we awoke, we made slow, beautiful love and then inspected the first ever bruises he had given me from a spanking... and it was just his HAND!

Prefectdt: My most memorable spanking was not a relationship spanking and was made memorable by a submissive girl, not the Top concerned (the top was very good though, I'm not trying to run her down by saying that).

This was back when I was 20. My friend held my hands whilst I was bent over a table taking a long caning of many strokes (I forget the actual number). She coached me through some breathing techniques and mental exercises as I was getting caned. It was the first time that I reached subspace. I realized that this is what I had really been craving, not the sexual titillation or just satisfying the inner need to get my backside tanned.

At the time, back in the mid-80's, there seemed to be plenty of books around about good and safe play and philosophies about playing, but nothing on how best to take a spanking or other type of play. I learned so much from that lass and will always be grateful to her. I wonder where she is now?

Bonnie: This is a difficult question. As I think back over more than thirty years, there were many spanking highlights. Perhaps, I will go with the crowd and choose the first time Randy spanked me. The fun tone and running banter established a pattern we've repeated and expanded upon many times since.

Thank you all for joining us for brunch!

MBS Spanko Brunch #291

Hi everybody! I missed seeing you last week, but we're back now. Big thanks to Hermione for hosting our brunch.

Our question is a classic that was suggested by Make Mine Red.

Was there one adult spanking that you consider to be your most memorable? What made it special? Did it change your relationship or the role of spankings in your life? Have you ever tried to recreate those events?

All spanking enthusiasts are welcome to participate in our brunch (Yes, even those who consider themselves to be on the outside looking in). You can register your thoughts by entering a comment below. Once everyone has had the opportunity to speak, I will post an edited summary.
