Writers and Resources

When I finally decided to translate my masochistic and submissive needs from fantasy into reality I benefited hugely from he discussions I found on soc.subculture.bondage-bdsm and soc.subculture.bondage-bdsm.femdom.

And when I realized the need for help discerning the plausible and practical from the dangerous and deadly, advice to help insure that I enjoyed being tormented without requiring a hospital visit there proved to be a vast number of web sites dealing with S&M and safety, recovery and doing kinky things correctly.

We owe a considerable debt to the many web essayists who have shared their own experiences and expertise. Some like Philip the Foole have no site of their own. Some have crafted large reference sites with information on everything from the bastinado to selecting a good whip and wielding it wisely.

Others have written stories of torments and power exchange: even when their fiction wasn’t strictly speaking good they fed our kinky imaginations.

Now we have many useful and enjoyable BDSM bloggers.

Which writers on BDSM and fetish have aided your own development?

On which forums have you had discussions, shared opinions with men and women with kindred kinks?

Which have been valuable in teaching you safety or building your own bondage bench?
