Something to Whet Your Whatsit

So the free book thing is done and gone, but here is something I have been working on - based on bits of Roger Benson's art and manips I have done from scratch.

Five Days to the (FREE) release of My Latest Book - Keep Watching This Space

Yeah!  But 'latest' becauseI HATE 'newest' - such bad grammer!  And I MAY have to charge SOMETHING through certain channels - LULU, for example, levies a minimum charge; but I'll keep it to a 'peppercorn' on those channels for 'ebook' and make it ABSOLUTLY free on the Institute website as a PDF download!!!

Incidently; I'm having to be careful. here in the UK.  As you know, I have always valued what I have previously described as 'plausability' in story telling.  But the emphasis has always been on that term 'story telling' I.E, it s fiction - FICTION - that I deal with; just that it is possible, if not entirely likely, fiction.  There are one or two barriers beyond which I will not venture (no children goes without saying), for example; you will never find the descriptor, slave, nor slavery,  There may well be accounts boardering on sexual servitude, but never - ever - sexual slavery...  Not ever!  That term is never used.

And yet, in the British press, there have been of late apparenly genuine accounts of modern-day slavery - and I don't just mean among the denizens of Eastern European-run bodellos, of which many examples exist on the streets of London.  Rather I refer to bowing and scraping down-on-the-knees floor-scrubbiing domestic slavery, which may or may not come with demands for more 'personalised' services.  And there there has been lately a re-definition of the term 'abuse' within a series of public information films which seems to seek to cover the subtler approaches to control oft broached within my writing wherein the brute physicality of the strap and the cane might sometimes be eschewed for certain less physical, more psychological based, techniques.

And, more directly applicable to the current novel, there has been a revisiting of those old ideas of 'cures' for 'gayness', a concept visited, twisted and corrupted within the pages of the new book (and not everyone's 'cup of tea' - which is just ONE of my reasons for holding it back and making it available for free! The fear of rejection!  I have never written this sort of stuff before, and so risk rejection from BOTH  sides)

A Belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year - The Final Countdown

Well, not quite: 

This post was SUPPOSED to have gone out on Christmas day - but then again I was supposed to have been back from my winter soijon to the Canary Islands on Christmas eve.  I don't know how many of you monitor the news from back here in the UK, but while I was away there was, apparently, a massive storm which knocked out the power to London Gatwick airport's north terminus, with the resault that the aircraft which was to have returned me to the UK at lunch time on Christmas eve from Tenerife was still on the ground in the UK at half past five in the afternoon! 

Consequently I ended up spending Christmas eve night in the same hotel I had been staying at (a good thing!) but found myself being shipped out to Gatwick yestereday, spending the vast majority of Christmas day traveling (a BAD thing - VERY!!!). 

Had I flown by one of the 'budget airlines' such as Easy Jet I'd have been there still, as Easy Jet weren't flying Christmas day.  But I'd flown Thomson - and they (as part of their 'customer service') had decided to do their very best to get their customers back to the UK 'in time for Christmas'.  Huraaah! 

Errr...

But hang on...  It's Christmas day... and I'm in Gatwick (near Brighton, on the UK's South Coast) and it's Christmas day... and nothing's running, I.E there is NO transport - NO trains, NO buses, NOTHING!  So I have to get a taxi - but it's Christmas - an in the full spirit of the season the taxi drivers have thought of a number, added a bit (for Christmas 'good will'), and then doubled it!!! 

So the long and the short of it is: I was left feeling like I'd pulled my own bum cheeks apart!

But now the main (and best?) point:.

I am making my latest book ....  Wait for it.... And this should have been Christmas day - I am making my new book available FREE... yes!   FREE!  Free, gratis and for nothing....  On New Years Day!  Watch this space!!  The countdown begins!!!

Institutional Caning

Just a little something I came across for the INSTITUTE website.  I plan to start a series of movie and YouTube derived pages and thought I'd test out the concept here.  And this one has it all:  the correct, suitably institutional setting, heavy iron door and everything.  And a suitably dowdy looking inmate uniform for the girl too - very close to what I would imagine.  The only part of this scenario I don't like is the audio soundtrack reference to 'resisting arrest'; it sounds far too legal and officially condoned.  I prefer to keep the sound off and imagine some small private facility of some nature situated well beyond public, bureaucratic and official scrutiny... No courts to appeal to, no scandal to be dredged up in the gutter press...No way out...

Perhaps it is an unofficially run private workhouse based on the Victorian model or charity run home for 'girls and young women in danger of drifting into moral corruption'.  Who knows?  What do YOU think? 

By the way; the reason you have not heard from me for a while is that I am presently having a problem with my hands and fingers - possibly gym injury related but aggravated by RSI from typing and mouse use - and so I am trying hard not to overdo it.

A Short Update - And My Having a Bit of Fun!

I have so neglected this blog of late - I know.  But in my defence, I have to say that getting the new website up to speed - by which I mainly mean that central site I have inherited, namely THE ORIGINAL INSTITUTE - has taken greater effort than I first estimated; there is a lot more to it than first meest the eye!

As custodian / curator I take my inherited responsibilities very seriously - and one of my major tasks has been weeding out all those links that have withered and died over the years on the extensive links page it contains (partially completed now): Not for the feint hearted!  But I'm getting there and am very nearly in a position where I will be able to get by latest book out and get on with the comic book project.

Those of you who have visited THE ORIGINAL INSTITUTE and fallen foul of the WebRing thingy hijacking their browser will be pleased to know that I have now (I think - I hope) fixed the problem... And it was MY fault, I have to admit!  I'd stuck a bit of HTML code where now chunk of HTML code should have been!  Sorry!  A teaser extract (short) from the new book will be arriving here shortly - keep your eyes open! 

Meanwhile - recently I have visited a couple of antiques and vintage fairs and have picked up some fairly inspirational old magazines dated 1953 - you just never know where inspiration will come from; in this case, mostly from the old 'foundation wear' adverts, all those girdles, corselettes and so on... There was just something about that era (and earlier), seeing a well proportioned woman in a girdle!  Not fat - just well proportioned, just enough to require some support...  A good case for a little enforced, or otherwise encouraged, weight-gain don't you think?  That pampered pet can say goodbye to those over-priced ballet lessons, spa visits or aerobics classes!

The Original Institute Site Gets a New Look

The Original Institute Site Gets a New Look - Well, sort of!  I've not had that long to work on it - and not all the links are installed or working properly - but I've made a start at putting together a new navigation scheme for the site, which as you will recall also houses the remains of my Weebly 'Beyond the Barred Window' site and the site I created for Roger Benson's artwork, based on drop-down and fly-out menus located along a bar at the top of the page.  At present this facility only exists within the index page itself (and within those pages that originated from my Weebly sit of course), where it will be bolstered by a secondary pictorial menu system, but once I get to grips with the code I plan to roll out the system across all of the site's pages while keeping the existing 'look' and extend it so that it encompasses all of the site's sub-pages and sections in the manner that it does for the Toyntanen section... I'm sure you understand!  Please take a look and let me know what you think - ta!  Just click the image, left. to go straight to the index page and play around.  Meanwhile:  I'm going 'pubing' today - I'm taking my laptop and I hope to get the new book organised and finished so that I can get back to the comic book project - I can also get my emails etc on my phone, so don't be shy!  I'll be in The Tollgate to begin with, the Turnpike Lane Wetherspoons, but I'll keep you updated by Facebook and / or Twitter in case anyone fancies joining me for a pint... see Ya!
