My Friend Cassie, and a favor to ask

New story beginning at Cassie's today.

I head back to work tomorrow. I have enjoyed my break fully. I got to spend time with Nick and Mollie both, as well as having time to myself. As much as I love my family, I enjoy being alone with my thought too (although alone might not be the most accurate word). I often talk about spending a lot of time writing. I wonder sometimes if some of you think, writing what? I mean I only post on my blog a couple of times a week. I haven’t done a Fantasy Friday myself in months – so some might wonder, what I am writing.

Many of my readers and all my close friends out here know that I have another blog – Cassie’s Space. That blog is my true heart and joy. I love Cassie; she is one of my dearest friends. I do want to explain that I am not crazy. I am fully aware that Cassie is a fictional character sprung from my imagination. I have, however, never been able to convince Cassie of this fact. She thinks she’s real, so mostly I just humor her. She wandered into my head on a trip I took with my family, cross country, when I was eleven. Reading made me carsick so I daydreamed for the 6,000 mile round trip.

I had a whole family made up in my daydreams. Cassie was a minor character, grown and married even then. And yes, even then my make believe world contained spanking stories. And as I got older and became sexually aware these stories became fantasies. Cassie would tell me stories about the adventures she and Tom shared. As Cassie and I grew closer in age her stories were the ones I spent most of my time day dreaming about.

I began actually writing the stories I knew in June 2006. That’s nearly six years ago. I don’t post as often now. It seems to average about one story every three weeks there. I would love to write more, but this doesn’t go on my schedule. I can’t just write a Cassie story – I’ve tried, I can’t do it. I have to wait for Cassie to come along and tell me one. Yep, I know that’s back to sounding crazy again. But it’s truly how it works. When I begin writing, I honestly don’t always know what’s going to happen. It’s like the story reveals itself as I write.

So if I can’t write on command, what am I spending my time on? A Cassie book. Again this is something my friends here have been hearing me talk about so long they must think I’m making it all up. But I’m not. It’s taken from the blog, and this book only covers the first few months, but there is so much more added. I have a wonderful editor helping me – besides being fantastic at editing; she is also the busiest woman I know!! To say things are going s… l… o… w… l… y… would be a gross understatement. But she is helping me turn a spanking story into a real book! So when I tell you I’m writing, it’s mostly re-writing as my editor helps me fill in and expand what I’ve done.

Now I want to ask a favor of all my readers and a second one from all my blogging friends. One, if you are not familiar with Cassie’s Space, please go and read this story. It's the story of some of Tom and Cassie's travels. It’s in several parts but there is a link at the bottom of each to take you to the next part if it holds your interest. I think this gives a flavor of who Tom and Cassie are and you'll get to meet some of their friends too.

And now one more favor I’ll ask of my blogging friends. Would you consider linking to Cassie’s Space on your site? I really am proud of this site but it has a very small readership. I’d love to have more exposure. And if you are willing to do that, and if you'll let me know, I'll be happy to return the favor, here and on Cassie's Space. And one other thing (to add fuel for those that think I’m nuts.) I’ll be happy to answer any question about Cassie here, but over there, if you leave a comment (and I hope you will) Cassie will be the one answering. As I’ve said, she thinks she real and I’d hate to step on her toes.

A Special Place

This is an invitation. Most of you that have been reading here long know that I have another blog. Some of you that have just started reading in the past year may not. I write a fiction blog, Cassie’s Space. I want to invite everyone to drop by and see if you like it. I’ll never brag on my writing here but over there I think you will find the best writing I've ever done.

The blog is first and foremost a love story about an older couple who have lived in a spanking relationship for nearly 40 years. I don’t remember creating her but she sprang to life in my mind many, many years ago. And now she has taken on a life of her own. Her stories, when she decides to whisper them in my ear, seem to write themselves.

I like to read spanking stories – I especially like spanking stories that have a real story to them. The ones where you don’t get to the slap, slap until you know why. The ones where the couple has a history and obviously cares deeply for one another. That’s what you’ll find at Cassie’s Space. If you go back to the beginning it reads a lot like a continuing story and you get to meet many people along the way. But I feel that most of her stories can stand alone for a good read by themselves.

Even though she is fictional Cassie is very realistic on her site. If you leave a comment – and I hope you will if you like the stories – ‘Cassie’ will be the one to answer it. She seems to speak for herself quite well. LOL! There is a new post up there today and here are a few others you can check out to see if you like the site. The Tale of the Runaway Wives part one and part two, The Dinner Party, and After Burn are three I think you’ll like.

I hope you’ll like the site it’s just a gentle, relaxing place to go for a fun read when you can use a laugh and a love story.
