I’m back for my thirteenth Love our Lurkers Day! I often wonder how our silent readers view this day. I'm guessing that many of you are saying one of three things to yourself.
1. “Geeze, can’t they leave us alone? I just want to read in peace. I’m not bothering them. Why do I have to say something?”
2. “There is no way I can say anything. Everyone will know it’s me and I can’t let anyone know I read spanking blogs!”
3. “I have absolutely nothing to add. I’m not spanked and don’t expect to be. I find it all very stimulating, but I don’t know what to say. I just want to read and think about it.”
When I first found blogs I was hesitant to comment due to a combination of reasons two and three. I didn’t understand blogs or exactly how they worked but I was afraid ‘someone’ would find out. Since I wanted to comment I just set up a completely new email, told no one in my real life about it and commented away under the name Elis, later changed to PK, and I’m still going strong and no one I haven’t told myself has ever found out.
Those folks held back by the third reason are the very ones we’d love to hear from. Every single blogger among us was at this point sometime in the past. Every one. By commenting that first time we allowed ourselves to accept our desires and be proud of who we are. I was able to not only find my voice here, I gained the courage to use my voice in other aspects of my life. And all this came about because I took the step to talk to others like me.
I admit, I live for comments. They mean more to me than any of you know. I’ve been here for a dozen years. The idea of closing the blog plays in my mind more and more these days. But I’ve held on because I love the contact with others. I know my blog is rarely on topic, but I see by my stats that people are still coming by. Yet only a small fraction speak to me.
IMPORTANT: I do my LOL Day differently than most. If you normally comment here, if we email often, if we’re friends on FB, if we talk on the phone occasionally or if we’ve met in person – please don’t comment today. Today is only for those who are usually silent. If you’ve never commented, if you only comment or email me two to three times a year, then I ask you to please say something today. If a public comment still worried you, email me at elisspeaks@yahoo.com
I wouldn’t have been here as long as I have if people couldn’t trust me with their emails.
The ball's in your court. I hope I get comments today. I’d love to hear from you and I’ll answer each one – a comment or an email. Thanks.
Good Morning to you.
ReplyDeleteLove you, friend. You never were one to follow instructions!
DeleteHi! I have no idea what to say, but I didn’t want to disappoint you.
ReplyDeleteHey Becca, thanks. This was what I was hoping for. Come back anytime.
DeleteComing out, the hardest thing to do. Met a wonderful woman, a little older, I'm in my 20's she in her 40's. She has taught me alot, it was laying in bed, naked, had a great awakening, she asked what I think about the most. I said nothing, she reminded me we are both naked and nothing to hide. I said spankings, she said you want to spank me, No i want a woman to spank me. I was shock when she said since we have met, there have been times I thought you needed a spanking. She got up, took a shower, and I laid in bed, surprise. Standing over me dressed she said now is the time, I looked at her, she grabbed my arm and over her lap I went. It really hurt, she knew how to spank, and I hugged her afterwards and thanked her. She said it will be different the next time. I soon found out and it was different, no hugging, facing the frontroom wall with pants and underpants around my ankles and learned not to move from or speak, got another spanking. So I came out.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've begun on quite an adventure. I hope you enjoy it!
DeleteI've enjoyed your blog for years, stopped by today with no idea it was LOL day. I do admit I read blogs less now than when we were first starting spanking, but glad you're still here. Hope you keep it up.
ReplyDeleteEmily
Emily, I understand. I seem to read a little less myself. I appreciate you coming by. Cassie's back too if you ever read there.
DeletePK.
ReplyDeleteYour blog was one of the original blogs I started reading. That was back when Stormy and Sara were still blogging. That was also when I started following Cassie. I’ve read all the Cassie books and would love it if she started blogging again.
So even if I don’t comment just know I’m lurking and enjoying your blog.
Amyee
Love hearing from you anytime! You have been reading here for a while to remember Stormy and Sara. Lurk all you like - here and at Cassie's.
DeleteHey PK,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for being here! Love your blog and your books!
Boo
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoy them.
DeletePK,
ReplyDeleteStopped by to say hello! Come on over.
Meredith
LOL, not a rule follower, huh?
DeleteSo I guess if some are breaking your rules.... I will too! Love ya PK!
ReplyDeleteMaybe rule breakers should be spanked.
DeleteMaayyyybbee! ;))
DeleteWell, this is the second day, so I’m not breaking your rule, PK! Happy for you that some of your silent readers responded. Hope you yet some more today.
ReplyDeleteRosie xx
None of my friends are exactly rule followers - spankings all around!
DeleteAdd me to the naughty list, PK! :D Happy LOL Day! Many hugs and love,
ReplyDelete❤️Katie xoxo
You've been on that list for years!
DeleteThis rule breaker already has a promised spanking hanging over her head ... so what's one more ... hahaha!
ReplyDeleteHave a great second LOL day, PK
nj ... xx
I should have known no one out here could resist a spanking threat.
DeleteHi PK! Happy LOL Days. I look forward to reading more of your blog in the coming year!
ReplyDeletePrincessImp
Thank you! Thank you! Please drop by any time.
DeleteI'm laughing at the rule breakers. Technically, i don't think i'm breaking your rule cos i don't comment a whole lot. So I guess it's ok for me to de-lurk and say hi today! Happy LOL days :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you came Fondles. I'm hope you'll come by often.
DeleteI've enjoyed your blog for years. Thank you for all the posts. EL
ReplyDeleteGlad you're here EL. There are a few interesting things coming up.
DeleteI had to come and say hello.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Ronnie
xx
Always happy to see you, Ronnie.
DeleteI sincerely hope you will continue. It is with sadness I look back at all of the great blogs that have cut back or disappeared completely.
ReplyDeleteRick
Thank you, Rick. I feel the same - there are many blogs I miss greatly. I often think I've said everything I can possibly say here, but I keep coming posting. I really don't want to loose the contact.
DeleteHave enjoyed your bog for past 8 months or so. I'm a lurker so maybe you ll here from me next year. Thank you for all your sharing. It certainly informs me how this path can work.
ReplyDeleteMerry
Merry, so glad you're here. I'm afraid I'm not on topic too much, but if you go back to some of the archives you'll find my feeling on many spanking topics. Love having you here!
DeleteHi PK if its good enough for the others I'm breaking the rules also. Happy LOL days. See you have had a few drop by to say hello, how lucky you are.
ReplyDeleteHugs Lindy xx
I'm very luck with all the friends I've made here.
DeleteWow, so many rule breakers even with the threat of a spanking!
ReplyDeleteHi PK - I don't come here often enough and always want to submit for your Fantasy Friday!
Best,
Enzo
I would be so happy if you would join in with a Fantasy Friday - so please keep it in mind. I imagine it was the threat of the spanking that had so many commenting!
