I am not certain why--and I suppose here is the real mystery--why my muse went off over the summer on vacation and my writing rather dried up. The fact it is summer in the UK can't entirely be the cause as our summers are intermittently hot and wet so there has been opportunity to stay in and write.
No matter; I have posted a complete story in a genre I am not entirely familiar with, that of the detective. Of course, given my interest in the idea of willing slavery, domination/submission, lesbianism, bondage and old-fashioned women's underwear my tale entitled 'The Strange Case Of The Lost Girdle Model' leans heavily on those elements.
I am also quite pleased with the discovery of a lady to lead the investigation, one Matilda Millicent Minerva who perhaps typically of the traditional amateur detective is both observant and persistent, and who is ably assisted by her own personal, but younger, slave. Their d/s relationship is not entirely unusual where they live: behind the curtains and doors of the small town where all this takes place is a large number of women with similar interests to Mrs Minerva.
It was fun writing the tale, though in fairness it wasn't the longest thing I have ever written. I may well revisit the lady and her slave and give them another mystery to solve with no doubt more fun-and-perverted passions exposed in places most of polite society never knew about, though they may well have dreamed about them in quiet moments...
Perhaps too if my muse has returned I will get on with some other tales hanging fire for now. We shall see.
