The Back Yard
Is Anybody Out There?
Things have gotten really quiet around here. Interaction here has dropped to nothing and clip sales are just about there. I’m expecting TannerQS to visit tomorrow (July 29) and maybe stay a day or two to record some content that he can sell. I doubt I’ll bother recording anything; maybe some behind the scenes stuff. … Continue reading
July 5 & 6 Were the Pits
Well, actually, I did stuff in the pits. On July 5, I got Anne to help me get tied up in the clay pit so I could struggle and moan a lot, while getting completely covered in thick, gooey, kaolin clay. It was a pretty good time. I’m sure there will be a video that … Continue reading

Update on the Kaolin Clay
Those of you who’ve been following me for years probably remember that I have a pit full of kaolin (white) clay that I don’t use often. There are a couple reasons I don’t use it, but one of them is that it essentially repels water. I get it reanimated with lots of physical effort and … Continue reading
