But I think the lack of graphic sex and their age would hold them back.<br /><br />Blondie,<br />I’m so happy that you really like Cassie; I couldn’t have a better compliment. I do plan to make her story into a series of books. If the editor I’m working with can’t get to it I will eventually self-publish. But it will be a while; I’ll be retired in five years. <br /><br />Paul,<br />Christian Grey, prince Charming with a paddle!<br /><br />Terps, <br />You HAVE to read it. I am a true fan (speaking of fan, keep one handy when you read.)<br /><br />PLB,<br />If they make the movie they have to let me cast it! LOL!

Definitely interesting. I agree about how I don't think the movie will portray any of ttwd in a correct light, and will make it out to be some sick weird twisted thing, which stinks. Now i'm not saying I wouldn't mind putting a face to the delicious Christian Grey, but I don't think they'll do it justice that's for sure.Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03910489208431359436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31522777.post-18805704218004342032012-04-23T09:09:03.212-04:002012-04-23T09:09:03.212-04:00I watched the interview as well...I would certainl...I watched the interview as well...I would certainly be curious to read the book...nice to see a mom of two children sharing a fantasy openly...Never heard of 91/2 weeks...take care, TerpsTerpsichorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13704408254742966076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31522777.post-28579091311666294752012-04-23T06:07:41.207-04:002012-04-23T06:07:41.207-04:00PK, you know my opinion of the book, it's not ...PK, you know my opinion of the book, it's not great, but a nice bedtime read, especially if you have company<br />A Twenty-first century fairy tale.<br />Love and warm hugs,<br />Paul.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03790580459962602757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31522777.post-2248669132962846502012-04-23T02:26:48.956-04:002012-04-23T02:26:48.956-04:00I saw the interview and I agree with you, she is o...I saw the interview and I agree with you, she is one of us. But all the other women pretending to spank and put on blind folds was really disappointing. What also bothered me was that the interview was part of an entire show that discussed different relationships, different as is "unusual" like the open marriage group of friends. Because a person enjoys one lifestyle does not mean that they are part of any large group combined with all choice lifestyles. Well my opinion - sorry. I also agree that this is another book that should not be made into a movie. <br />I bet your Cassie book will do even better then this book.

LOL!<br /><br />SNP,<br />I think one thing that we all have in common out here is that our sex life really improved once we came out about our desires. It's not the spanking so much as the closeness we feel once we discuss all this.<br /><br />June,<br />I'm out to a few vanillas too. Actually between family and friends it's about 6 people. I've had really good response from these people. There attitude is like "If you like it go for it."<br /><br />Grace,<br />I won't be going unless a bunch of folks out here tell me it's great.<br /><br />Hermione,<br />I think you'll like it. Thanks for the offer of help. I really may need it.<br /><br />Ronnie,<br />I think you should go ahead and read it now.

It was so wildly popular that the readership nagged, cajoled begged & pleaded will she wrote MotU 2.<br /><br />I think it is very cool that it is getting so much press. And I agree, they will ruin a movie. I also agree with the part of people thinking us weird or sick. I am out to 2 nilla friends, one understands & the other says - you let him beat you (no, no I don't), and - how much are you giving up? (well nothing thanks, and I get so much in return that you could not even conceive of it.)<br /><br />Sighs - Daddy says some people just aren't meant to understand.

It was 1987 and I was a freshman at college away from home. Someone had that movie. I grew up in a conservative small town in the South and I was shocked and fascinated. I don't think I liked the movie, but I realized there was a lot about sex and other things that I just did not know. I read the Twilight books and there is an example of the movie not being as good as the books. Now for the point about spanking being out in the open more. I, too, think it is great. I am still rather private, but since reading spanking blogs and stories I can say our sex life has really, really improved. I am more daring, ordering sex toys for the first time ever, and enjoying my husband and sex so much more! And, the new friends are the icing on the cake. Sorry my comment is long and all over the place. Back to you---enjoyed your thoughts .

I am sure they will incorporate all three books into one because that is the only way they'll get a 90-120 minute movie sans the "real meat" of the 50 shades. <br /><br />Don't wait for the movie - read the books and you can picture any actor you want in the roles.Aimless Ramblinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00720714875762344391noreply@blogger.com
