there is a little of me in everything i write. some of the stories, there is a lot of me, i think those are obvious, and some, it's just a little brush of me, but there is always something. I think that, people might even be surprised by which brush strokes are more me and which are less. i like to think that i am not so obvious at least. i think that stories have to come from somewhere, mostly our experiences, and that includes stories we've read that have touched us or movies or events or other people. that said, especially since this is online, don't assume that someone is a certain way - i think that those few i've let get close to me here, know that my 'public persona' is just part of who i am, the part i like sharing. behind that, there is a much more complex girl, just like i am sure that behind everyone else's avatar is a complex man or woman with a life beyond that of writing sex stories.
ps - i always assume that you (Daisy) are Cinderella with the glass dildo sticking out of your bum - it makes me giggle to picture you as thus during our chats. ;)
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.
It's very difficult to write without hints to your own values and personality. I'm sure a skilled psychologist could look at how any of us write (as much as the content itself) and point to aspects of our subconscious being revealed. Do we concentrate on characters? Do we need to justify actions? What levels of empathy do we show? Do view the world in a macro or micro level?
All these little things will add up to describe the sort of person we really are. Of course, we won't reveal everything - so people will complete the picture themselves (usually hopelessly incorrectly but in a semi-permeable environment like Lush, that's ok).
In short my stories don't tell you the story of me - but they might make you think i'm worth getting to know, or not.

Why not read some stories instead
NEW! Want a quick read for your coffee break? Why not try this... Flash Erotica: Scrubber There is a fair amount of me in my stories, mostly because I draw on real life experiences to write. The next few stories I submit here will be works of fiction, but still there will be a small piece of me in them. What I have to say though, is that people should not assume that they will draw anymore out of me than I've already shown here. It simply won't happen. (Well, it may happen if I like you) The true stories are only a small bit of my past experiences and don't represent the total me, and of course, I will only share what I wish to at anytime.
This gives me the opportunity to say that the swinger stories don't happen every weekend people, these things have taken place over the years. No way could I live like that all the time.
I would say that all of my writing contains a bit of me, at least to a greater or lesser degree...
For example, this morning, I had a nightmare and wrote a poem as a direct result of that...
It was good though, because I know from past experience that a dream like that would have hung over me all day, but the fact that I wrote a poem, exorcised it immediately and left me with a clearer head...
In fact, exorcise, that's a good way to describe my writing... It gets rid of a lot of the nonsense inside my head...
So, if you read my stuff, well, it will give you a bit of an idea as to what I am like, well, aspects of me...
It's by no means entirely me and those that know me would probably agree that I share far too much of myself on this place...
I'm not pretending to be someone else, but I'm not revealing everything about myself either... (that's reserved for a very chosen few - thanks guys!! You help to keep me sane.. I know...)
Hmm. Interesting topic. As a person born with some creative blood flowing through my veins, writing is as mazza said, an exocism of sorts, much like painting, sculpting, photography, and all other forms of self expression that show pieces of our distinct personalities. We may think we're hiding but we're really not. We are in fact, exposing ourselves through the words and phrases we use.
Those of you that know me now, probably figured out before we became friends that I have a smoking fetsih when it comes to beautiful women smokers. I didn't try to hide it, because I knew it would tap into something familiar to those men and women that share that affliction. There are over one million web sites devoted to smoking women.
That's my thought on the subject. Excuse me...I need a cigarette .
Oh, the people that send me messages are ok normally; not one yet that is overly zealous. For the most part, I thank them and move on. If they send online messages that are inappropriate, I don't respond. I make it very clear that I am unavailable and there is nothing that I can provide for them outside of a hot fantasy. I'm respectful.
Human beings are indeed complex entities. I don't fully understand why some people almost feel a sense of ownership, if that's an adequate word, of those who create things they enjoy. Frank Sinatra and Miles Davis were two of the biggest assholes to walk the Earth, yet they were two of the greatest artists of their time. More and more, I don't want to know personal details about the artists I enjoy because it gets in the way of my enjoyment of the music or book or film. I share personal details on a case by case basis, perhaps less and less as time goes by. My personal attitude is that I simply don't fucking matter. Please just read my stories, and I really truly hope people will enjoy them as much as possible. If someone feels something deep...even better...that part of me reached that part of someone else, and that makes it damn good to be alive...to be human.
Generally, it freaks me out anytime someone associates me too closely with something I've written. I just tell stories. I don't even tell them very well, to be perfectly honest. Certainly not as well as many others here. But people come to Lush for all kinds of reasons, and a site like this provides a very valuable outlet for a lot of people. I would never discourage anyone from writing to say something about a story or poem they read, but I would only hope to receive the same personal respect I would offer in return. However, I never would have expected to, but I've met some truly wonderful people here.
Well...ok...here goes: In fact, I am a very short, fat and mostly bald. I have a mustache I never trim, but that's ok because it hides the nest of hair growing out of my nostrils. I work as a janitor in a huge industrial complex, and spend most of my time in the boiler room where I write pornographic stories on rolls of toilet paper I steal from the supply room. My olive drab uniform hangs too low off my hips, and my butt crack shows so deep someone could plant daisies in it if they had a mind. I smoke cigars and chew tobacco simultaneously, and I spit pretty much anywhere I feel like it. Cheerleaders and fashion models all love me, however, because I am hung like a farm animal, and the wild swinger parties we throw down in the boiler room are the stuff of legend. We take numerous pictures of the scandalous goings on, but in the interest of protecting my personal privacy, I can only share these pictures with sprite.
I do tend to get quite a lot of messages when I post something, which is lovely!
These take the form of comments on the story or poem and I do make an effort to respond and say thank you (at least for the first few weeks). I'll generally post a thank you on their wall (if the comment is from a friend). If the person isn't on my friend list, I'll usually PM them.
Sometimes I'll get instant messages (I can only receive those from friends), so I'll respond to those as and when I can...
I've also received PMs from people not on my friend list and I respond to those too - sometimes these people become friends, sometimes not...
I don't think I've ever had anything offensive, or out of order. I've had some saucy ones if it's been a saucy story, but I deal with them politely.
It's always encouraging to get feedback (even if it's just pointing out mistakes in the story!!)
I think that writing is an avenue for creative expression. My poetry comes from real emotions, but they may be remembered rather than current ones. The prose that I have written with Alphamagus comes from experience, imagination and fantasy and is therefore different than the poetry. The restaurant story is set in one that I like very much, for example.
I think in general writing must have some piece of you in it to be authentic, but it need not be autobiographical. It can tell in a story some insight that you have come to about the human condition with characters other than yourself.
I cherish my privacy (and anonymity on Lush) and do not share my intimate self or emotions with the world. For me that is unseemly and indiscreet, but we must each do what is comfortable for us.
I know that the poems have helped expiate some emotions for me and that has been very healthy. The stories are fun to write, perhaps because my writing partner makes it such a pleasure and they are intended to be playful as well as sexy and romantic.
The whole real me will never be on view on Lush.
My stories are largely fictitious but my poetry is a part of me. I cannot write it if I didn't feel it first. I'm just not that skilled a poet to be able to fake it yet.
Q. How much of the Real You is in your writing?
A. The men in all of my stories are a reflection or a part of me. A few of my stories are true stories, so those are all me.
Q. Are you happy to share "Yourself" with what some might call a fan, or just people interested in your writing?
A. Depends on what "share" means. I'm always open to discuss writing and my stories, but when it comes to letting people into my personal self...I do it discreetly.
Q. Do you reply to messages with revelations of yourself?
A. No
Q. How do you respond to people wanting to know more about You?
A. Again, depends on how that has come across. If they want to know my favorite color, food, etc . I'll give that stuff away, but again...when comes to my personal self...I'm very discreet about it
Q. Are you happy to write your whole self and pure character into your stories, or do you usually pull things that are not really of "You" into your work, as I do?
A. Most of my characters are down to earth persons like myself, so yes.
I'd like to add that my poetry is all because my poetic works come from my heart.
There's a lot of me in my writing but in order to know what is me, you have to get to know me. My poetry is raw and unpolished emotion, which is me at the time, but not me all the time.
In some of my stories the debauchery is me and is based on real events, if not the actual event but that doesn't mean to say that I'm always engaged in debauchery.
I think a lot of readers tend to think that what an author writes is mostly themselves but they forget that it's as much of an escape for the writer as it is for them as the reader. If everyone put every aspect of themselves in their writing, it'd be too easy to get to know someone and half the fun of getting to know someone, especially on here, is separating the person from the author.
I didn't expect to write as much as this in this reply but I guess something about the question just inspired me. Nice question.
Does anybody else ever worry about this kind of scenario?
Ut incepit fidelis, sic permanet.

I use my own discretion based on what I observe/glean/learn of people.
I've never been quizzed about who I am on these forums, nor have I written much, so I speak of
past experiences, elsewhere:
1_ Who I am and what I've done are not exactly written in my works. I splice; maybe an unrealised
fantasy here, mixed with something I've seen/read, but rewritten to suit my fancies. Sometimes I write
based on what will capture a certain audience, and in those cases, even less of "me" is interlaced.
2_ I do share "myself," but it's not much, or nothing significant. Sometimes it's just simple negligence, most
times it's intentional. If it's a fan, I would share even less than if it was someone who was purely interested
in my writing. But if were the case, then I doubt they'd ask for more of "me."
In any case, I'm flattered and pleasantly surprised when I pique someone's interest.
3_ I'm not sure what "revelations" entail, but I'm going to assume it's something that I'd keep close
to vest. Expanding on that assumption, I don't offer what I'm not asked, and if I'm asked about these
things, I shy away from them.
4_ I respond politely and creatively when I'm asked about myself.
Nosy yet secretive? Give and take, Lass. Give and take. : )
