Hi, hola, hello!
Thanks for finding my little corner. While I’m not new to the internet — I delurked on the Usenet group alt.sex.spanking in January 1997 — I’ve been away for a while for reasons kinda complicated that may become a series of posts. Some of my earliest stories are up on Laura’s Spanking Corner…though my browser doesn’t seem to be able to get to them. There were three sites that were either mine, or Paul and mine:
el tercer ojo – mine
The Punishment Book – a group of friends, administered by me
Pablo and Mija’s Treehouse – a website built and maintained by Paul where our stories lived.
They’re currently all offline, though (hopefully) not for too much longer.
Writing for the newsgroup and blogs both fulfilled and released something inside me. It also was the best and only way I’ve made friends and developed deep relationships, whether in or outside the scene. I’m pretty text-oriented, so despite trying, image-focused sites like Fetlife have never been as engaging for me. Short-form spaces like Twitter* (I’m @eltercerojo there) work for staying in touch with old friends, but are not so good at making new.
So, um, here I am. Creating another space to get behind at posting.

Hi Mija,
Loved Pablo’s stories on spanking corner, especially the schoolgirl / school uniform themed ones.
The account about buying a school uniform in Edinborough (?) was most interesting. I think he posted that? Did that really happen, I wonder?
Hoping you will repost all of your stories as Laura’s Spanking Corner doesn’t seem to function anymore 😕
Hi Mark. Thank you for writing this! 🙂 I love Pablo’s stories too. Those two are especially wonderful, all the more so because they were the first ones he wrote and how he introduced “Pablo Stubbs” to the newsgroup. Both of us find it pretty wonderful, and kind of unbelievable that these stories still mean so much to so many people. It’s partly because of that, partly because they matter a lot to both of us too, that we’re working right now to the get Pablo & Mija’s Treehouse back up. I have a little place where updates should be going here. Meantime, I’d already put the “Such a Good Girl” and “Such a Naughty Girl” stories up here for someone else, but hadn’t linked to them on the Stories page. I have now.
Laura’s site was up and down for a while, but yes, it’s been several weeks now. I’ve heard there are some technical issues that need to be worked out to get it back up. Hope so anyway. In the meantime it can be accessed on the Way Back Machine at the Internet Archive site. It’s a little awkward, but I’ll try and post a little walkthrough to help soon.
It may be that uniform account you’re remembering might actually be a couple stuck together. Back in 1997, when Pablo and I were just getting to know each other online, comparing our kinks and all that, a newsgroup couple who had a Daddy/Daughter relationship, Summer and Adrian, posted a real life account of visiting Edinburgh and buying a uniform from the much-missed Aitken and Niven department store. It was a wonderful account, told in both of their voices, Summer even put up a tiny picture of her wearing it. But was even more resonant for us because Paul was living in Edinburgh at the time and the places they were describing were ones he walked past every day. It made what we were only starting to explore feel way more real. So years later, after Paul had moved to Los Angeles, we were back in the UK for Christmas and went to John Lewis in Newcastle. It was thrilling. I had more than a few uniforms by then, but that day got to **try on uniforms** and see myself in them, step out of the dressing rooms and get Paul’s opinion, and then we bought the ones that looked best. That’s not something I can imagine happening again, at least not the UK as uniform shops both limit access and much of the shopping is done online. 🙂
