DEEPLY LEATHERED IN DALLAS:
SouthPlains Leatherfest Report

Wow! I had a most spectacular weekend at SouthPlains Leatherfest in Dallas. Wooo hooo!
Lots of gorgeous men and women. (What's in the water down there?), great play, tons of intense workshops. . . and really, really nice (and sexy) people.
Played a lot. . . I had a very intense personal experience of catharsis as a top in creating a scene that combined objectification, bondage and political expression . . . still buzzing from that . . . I’ll need to write that one down with care to describing the background and inner experience . . . When I do, I’ll post it on my blog-like forum at BeautyBound.com

What else? I taught two classes; A Rope Suspension hands-on for experienced players and the class on Erotic Humiliation Play. I was really happy with how well the humiliation class was received. Many people elected to stay long after the class was over to continue the discussion. I finally closed class a full hour and a half (!) after the official end of class. The discussions and soul-bearings were really intense . . .

There was a really hot night with a studly butch . . . And then getting to suspend this really hot and handsome Texan Leatherman for his first ever rope suspension experience . . .

Got to spend quality, sit down and deep talk time with old friends and new acquaintances . . . A wonderful surprise tea service on a shiny silver tray by a very pleasing submissive. . .

An exceptional track of classes on Master/slave relationships by amazing instructors . . . The late night suite party . . . and getting to be PDK sorority sisters together with Michele Serchuk

And. . . then . . . (Too many great experiences to mention. . . )

Wooo hoo!

This is an event that I highly recommend! Well organized and fun... They had play parties on Thursday, Friday, Saturday AND Sunday. How great is that?
I really felt that it was an event that returned, refreshed and reminded myself and the rest of the attendees of the leather spirit.

CALGARY & EDMONTON CANADA CLASSES THIS WEEKEND!
I'm in Calgary as I write this – Just came down from an awesome 1/2 day of snowboarding up at Sunshine Village in Banff.
I have never been in weather so cold before, but never to be stopped from excellent snow, I bundled up like the little guy from South Park and headed up the slopes. It's really fantastic here!
I had put out an invite to the local community to come up and board or ski with me, but only Walter, my local buddy / host / event organizer, Loger of The Western Leather Federation took me up on it.
Hey, where is everyone? Don‚t you like to play in the snow? (* teasing *)
I'm in town for a few days to teach classes and sign CDs / Books. Here's the schedule and info. I hope that I may see some of you this weekend!

Midori bondage with Tiziano Magni in major fashion magazine
I opened my mail and there it was! A copy of EastWest magazine. It's a super high end, large format fashion magazine from Hong Kong. I worked with that most amazing fashion photographer Tiziano Magni on a multi page fashion and bondage-as-fashion-expression set for the magazine.
His photography regularly graces magazines such as Vogue, Vanity Fair, Mademoiselle, and Interview. I even got a front cover name mention!
If you are near a good international magazine seller, look for the EastWest magazine "Sex!" issue.
I am so unbelievably excited!

MIDORI'S FIRST MALE BONDAGE PHOTOSHOOT

Everyone has their cherries to be picked –and I did some cherry picking. It was his first ever rope bondage scene and first ever suspension and first ever rope bondage photo session. It was my first photo shoot with a male model.
Oh, but he is soooo hot! Michael Blue shot, I rigged and Puimond, our stud in question here, posed for four hot sets. We shot over 800 images. He's painfully cute and dirty – thus the name of his web site cuteanddirty.com For those who like to see hot men bound, take a look at him and tell me if he isn‚t just adorable!
I hope to have some photos up soon – but we've been shooting hot bondage shots like mad, so we're a bit behind on processing the thousands of images we have. Don't worry though, they‚ll be up soon.
Oh, he's also a really talented corset maker. I'm having my next few corsets and corset ensembles made by him. You can find his custom corsets at www.Puimond.com http://www.puimond.com/
