Here are the outside resources significant to us, and more importantly why they are significant.
Our eBooks: Here is what we have published at Amazon.com
Newlywed Games by Sarah Baldwin- Thanks to her adventures and some interesting wedding gifts, Amy finds her wrists bound together with a silk scarf whenever she is across her husband’s knee for some much-needed domestic discipline.- Sarah Baldwin- Our Sarah Baldwin page at Amazon Author Central
Vendors of Delightfully Kinky and Naughty Stuff: Seriously fun places to shop
Red Hot Video / Bun Beating Fun- See our category “Video Reviews” for a number of Red Hot Video / Bun Beating Fun videos. Home of the tackiest and among the hardest bare bottom spankings you’ll see online.- Paddlewerks- Hanson Percussion Instruments was purchased by LeatherWerks of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 2003. As of 2013, they continue to offer the unfinished rattan cane bundles which are my staple in trade.
- Shadow Lane- The premier spanking vendor of them all. Their outstanding reputation for quality, service, and promptness is completely deserved.
- Adam and Gillian’s Sensual Whips and Toys- The famous whipmakers since 1987, make the Loopy Johnny featured in “The Severe Penciling.”
- The Stockroom- Formerly known as JT Toys or JT Stockroom, The Stockroom is a good reputable source of low-cost BDSM gear. They offer quite a range of products. I continue to recommend these folks via word of mouth. Their products are always EXACTLY as described. The cover photo for their print catalog is always riveting… I know of more than one case where the partner was immediately required to order EVERYTHING in that picture and set it up EXACTLY like that! Get on their email list for periodic sale and clearance offers.
Rope Bondage: Educational resources
- Bondage University- Large resource and teaching site, includes film clips of Lorelei demonstrating basic tying techniques. Those film clips are excellent!
- Japanese Rope Art- An excellent teaching and resource site. The teaching comes from both the artist and the model. It’s this site which caused things to “click” in my own mind.
Shibaricon- The annual educational rope bondage conference in Chicago. If it has to do with rope, you’ll find it at the conference, or on the site’s sponsors or vendors. You’ll find me there!- Tammad Rimilia’s Bondage How-To Page- I used this site to learn the Japanese Rope Bondage techniques on my own. Tammad has passed away, but friends have ensured his legacy remains. The site has now disappeared, but you can view it via The Wayback Machine.
Canes and Caning: Other writers and resources
- The Cane- KellFire’s poem about a late night caning. The photo is from a little “demo” we did for people the year before. The site has disappeared but remains visible via The Wayback Machine.
- Spanking Safety and Technique- This set of four articles includes “Spanking, Ass Beating and Corporal Punishment,” “The Art of Caning by Peter Fiske,” “Caning by Robin of Hanson Paddle Company,” and “Ask Robin: Questions and Answers.” These articles come from my preferred source of rattan canes, and remain available via The Wayback Machine.
- Sensuous Caning by Conrad Hodson- An excellent exposition of an erotic non-threatening style of caning, suitable for beginners and intermediate players.
- The Joy of Caning by Katharine Hawks- An excellent teaching article, not too long, with juicy details.
Sites with stories or other material we particularly recommend
- Laura’s Spanking Corner- Look for the stories by Ginger, particularly Diplomatic Immunity and Barbarism in the 23rd Century. Sure, there are many reasons to earn a spanking, but for stealing sperm to populate a whole planet of lesbians… well… that’s creative.
- BDSM Café- They’ve been around since the 1990s. It’s an excellent and well-laid-out site. Their story section is as nicely polished as the rest of the site.
- Flogmaster’s Story Archive- My favorite Flogmaster story is The Statue, which is posted here at the Old Tom Archive with permission.
- TIES (Tremendously Intense Erotic Situations)- TIES is a Minnesota-based BDSM organization that, as of 2001, was run by babalon and Midnight Writer. babalon is the woman who was trained to orgasm on verbal command; she was trained by Midnight Writer. Midnight Writer has granted permission to the Old Tom Archive to host his two essays describing this legendary accomplishment. As of 2013, the TIES Web site is online but has not been updated since 2004.
- The Robert W. Service Home Page- Poetry from the Alaska Gold Rush days. Some of his poems are set to images and music on You Tube. Tom’s particular favorite is The Ballad of the Ice-Worm Cocktail, which describes an extremely well done non-consensual BDSM scene. Sarah does NOT endorse any play involving icky slimy crawly thingies. To find the Ballad on the site, navigate to: Archives > Books and Poetry > Poetry > Bar-Room Ballads > The Ballad of the Ice-Worm Cocktail
- Laylah Martelli Archive- Laylah Martelli wrote some of the strongest pieces ever posted online. “Along with love, philosophy, and spirituality, there are also explicit descriptions of the pleasures of branding, cutting, beating and sex. If you are offended by any of these things, please read no further.”
- Nurse Jones Archive- “Nurse Jones, who could put up with it, or fight back, but given a choice between two evils, she always picks the one she hasn’t tried yet. Snigger. Clank.” These are the stories and scene reports, every one of them entertaining, of that legendary nurse from Indiana. (To the best of my knowledge all kinky activity remains illegal in Indiana.) Scroll down the linked page to the “Nurse Jones” listings. Unfortunately the archive lists the Nurse Jones offerings alphabetically rather than chronologically, but the fun is all there for you to find.
- Safety and BDSM- Emotional and physical safety: Excellent educational essay with a good section explaining Aftercare. The page includes many links to complete books on specific topics with explanations of why that book is relevant to the reader. The page includes many links to other articles online, but you may have to do google searches or access the Wayback Machine to find the articles, because things move around online. “Safety and BDSM” is part two of six. Check the links at the bottom of non-famous Lauren’s article for the rest of her teaching on BDSM: Introduction to BDSM; Safety and BDSM; Heavier Aspects of BDSM; Therapy and Behavioral Modification in BDSM; Partners and Parties; Tools, Toys, Techniques.
- The Wayback Machine- Countless Web sites disappear. The Wayback Machine has been making copies of the World Wide Web since 1996. This is a great way to find sites that have disappeared. Go to the Wayback Machine and paste the defunct site link into the box. If you’re in luck, and you probably will be, you’ll get a calendar showing each of the days that The Internet Archive made a copy of that site. Click on a date, and enjoy that site!
