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.
