Discussion about Gloria's book, "Domina"
-----------------------------------------------
THRVBuja: We will be starting momentarily :)

Guest3: Hi Buja, Pashun. :)

THRVBuja: We will be starting in just another minute :)

THRVGloryB: But will we ever end?

Guest3: Hi Glory.

THRVPashun: I sure hope not, Glory! ;)

Guest1: hi Buja, Gloria.

THRVBuja: Good evening everyone! :)

THRVPashun: Hugs Glory! :) I am sooo excited about tonight! :)

THRVBuja: I am delighted to present a very special event...Gloria will premiere her brand new SM novel: DOMINA. And, one lucky guest will get their very own copy!

Guest2: Hi Glory, Buja I will gladly accept it. ;-)

THRVGloryB: (waving in dignified fashion to the fans below)

THRVBuja: Gloria, would you care to tell us a little more about your new book? Maybe even read a brief selection? ;)

THRVGloryB: I would love to tell you A LOT!

THRVPashun: goodie! :)

THRVBuja: Great -- we have an hour :)

THRVGloryB: Well, gee, how to introduce a tome of such perversion! Such unbridled, uninhibited, unabashed.. and especially UNASHAMED depravity!

THRVBuja: I'm sure you are up to the task ;)

THRVGloryB: Hm.

Tnkrbell77: hi everyone

THRVGloryB: I hope the crowd here isn't too delicate & innocent? (looking around)

THRVPashun: {{{{Tnk}}}} :)

Tnkrbell77: <---is very delicate

Guest3: Hi Tink. Heard you had a fun weekend. ;)

THRVGloryB: Ah! Speaking of innocent!

THRVBuja: Not seeing a lot of halos around here Gloria :)

Guest2: heya tink

Guest4: <
THRVPashun: hiya Guest3! :)

Guest1: hi Tink :)

Tnkrbell77: Pashun :-)

THRVGloryB: Yes, Tink got a taste of unbridled depravity himself this weekend.

Guest3: Hi Pashun. :)

Tnkrbell77: I did indeed Guest3. :-) I sure did. :-) I thought I was in chapter 7.

THRVGloryB: The book is DOMINA: The Sextopians. DOMINA is (obviously) a femdom--but a rather special one. She owns a luxurious private mansion where she keeps 12 slaves who serve her in every possible way. These 12 slaves are "the sextopians," because they live in total captivity to their Mistress--something they consider to be a sexual paradise. They live in a vast dungeon space..which Domina specially designed to provide them with everything they might need--from a well- stocked library...to a spectacularly frightening, gothic Torture Chamber, replete with a flying cross. And lots of other interesting, exotic equipment. The book basically follows one character--a complete novice named Arden, who stumbles cluelessly into this world, utterly unprepared for what he finds there. He soon becomes hopelessly addicted to the endless range of perversions he encounters.

Guest5: wow...

Guest4: hm. Sounds familiar

Guest6: exciting!!

THRVGloryB: He spends his first 3 weeks there locked in an animal cage..
set on public display, and subjected to every type of humiliation one might imagine. Absolute lack of all privacy.

Guest3: That's MY favorite part. :)

THRVGloryB: When he's finally released, he is initiated through a long torture session in Domina's Torture Chamber... and, at last, is given his new identity as communal sex toy.

Tnkrbell77: Guest3.. you had better be careful how loud you say that. :-)

Guest3: So true, tink.

Guest5: lol

THRVGloryB: I should also mention that the 11 other slaves in this sm commune..are rather complex characters. They run the gamut in terms of age, race, orientation, and so forth. DOMINA has drawn into her service...a truly diverse world of extreme, hardcore SMers.

Guest2: ?

THRVGloryB: Naturally, despite Arden's intense lusts, he is a newbie. throughout the book he experiences moral conflicts & doubts. (when he isn't nearly passing out from excitement, of course) :-) And--here's a twist!--the book actually has a plot! :-)

THRVPashun: :) Glory....can we entertain a question from ARC? :)

THRVGloryB: So there is a dramatic (and I hope unexpected) conclusion to the book. Which--I equally hope--will leave people HUNGRY for more! I do SO enjoy writing SM smut! :-)

Guest6: you do have me raptured

THRVGloryB: Yes, I have now given my most professorly overview and am ready to return to regular human broadcasting! Questions? :-)

THRVBuja: Remember folks -- we will be awarding a copy to one lucky guest :)

Guest2: are the other eleven all males or are there both genders? and when can we expect to see the sequel?

THRVGloryB: The characters are as follows: Domina, woman of power and mystery. Arden, recent grad student with PhD in theology (tee-hee!).

Tnkrbell77: The sequel?? that was quick, :-)

Guest2: I read fast. LOL

THRVGloryB: Prism, in charge of "sales and toilets," Domina's oldest & most loyal slave.

Tnkrbell77: <---likes Prism

THRVGloryB: Hercules, a gay master who's sought refuge with Domina after losing his boy to AIDS. Amethyst, a lesbian who's in transition from sub to domme. Emerald, the commune's house-mother, who is in a wheelchair. Ruby, a sadistic young Latina who loves to beat Arden's penis. Opal, an oversexed blonde Venus who likes to do everything she can! Manuel, a young bisexual Latin man, very hunky and VERY submissive. Sapphire, a very butch, somewhat angry, incredibly pierced leatherdyke...who is bottoming to Amethyst. (The women of the commune are called Domina's "Precious Jewels"). There's Samson, a blond Adonis whose god-like physique is somewhat deceiving (shhhh...
a secret!) and Nigel, a character who is left ambiguous in this book.

Guest6: glory Halleluya

Guest2: sounds like Domina's employment practices would please the EOC

THRVGloryB: After this book, and assuming it sells well...I'm going to write a prequel, not a sequel. :-) Guest2--I just had to figure out a way to fit as many of my perversions as I could into one book. It was a dirty job. ;-) (But I HAD to do it!)

Guest6: lol

Guest2: ahh, in the fashion of George Lucas eh?

Guest6: just how BAD can you be?

THRVGloryB: Of course, I left a few hundred perversions for future books.

Tnkrbell77: Guest6... don't ask. :-)

THRVGloryB: Tink, don't tell.

Tnkrbell77: My lips are sealed.

Guest2: with duct tape ,tink?

THRVGloryB: Oh, dear, you didn't get my joke, Tink? You'll be beaten for that. ("don't ask...don't tell")

Tnkrbell77: I LOVED the joke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got it. I got it.

THRVGloryB: So does anyone else DARE to ask me a question? :-)

Guest2: Beat him anyway Glory, just for fun. :-)

THRVPashun: hmmm..might be too late, Tnk :)

THRVGloryB: Or have I put you all to sleep. OR...are your hands busy? Guest2-- I'll consider it.

THRVBuja: Glory, how long did it take you to write the book?

THRVGloryB: It felt like forever, Buja. :-)

Guest6: my hands are all tied up

Guest7: I guess it's a domina web site

THRVBuja: Surely, someone else must have a question for our esteemed author :)

THRVGloryB: Guest7...what site are you referring to?

Guest4: ?

THRVGloryB: You don't suppose I've sent them into a tailspin of lust, do you?

THRVPashun: Guest4, go ahead with your question :)

THRVBuja: I think they are all agog :)

Guest7: www.observor. com I saw it in a magazine familiar with it

Guest4: Why is it, it seems like a lot of sub females turn to being Dommes?

Tnkrbell77: Well.. I liked the flying cross a lot. :-)

THRVGloryB: Guest4, I don't know that that's true any more for women than for men. A lot of subs change over time, for a variety of reasons.

Guest6: just a change of pace

Guest7: so I guess no one is familiar with this web site

Guest8: ?

Guest4: hm. Ok. Seems that I talk to more women that have become Dommes than Doms that become subs!

Guest9: What are Dommes? What is BDSM? what is this chat about?

Guest4: ok. Thank you GloryB

THRVPashun: Guest8... please go ahead with your question for Glory :)

Guest8: This is more of a wish than a question. Will all the things done to Arden be very detailed?

THRVPashun: Guest9..this is a chat about BDSM and kink :)

THRVGloryB: Yes, Guest8, everything is explained in EXPLICIT detail.

Guest9: Oh my

Guest10: Doms just don't admit it as openly...lol

Guest8: Bless you GloryB. Thanks.

Guest4: I think you need to give Guest9 the book Glory

THRVGloryB: You will know everything they do to Arden, and you will know
everything he thinks as they do it to him. Many of the slaves take turns using him, so he experiences... an extremely broad range of SM play.

Tnkrbell77: Guest8... excruciatingly explicit detail.

Guest4: Thank you Guest10

Guest9: Guess I better leave...don't think I'm into this LOL

Guest8: YES-

Tnkrbell77: tis very chilling. :-)

THRVPashun: goodnight Guest9 :)

Guest3: It's a very sexy book. :)

THRVGloryB: Tink, Elizabeth & Buja have all read the book, actually!

Guest9: night :+)

THRVBuja: I can quite honestly say it is the best SM novel I have ever read! You all really need to pick up a copy!

THRVGloryB: Why thank you, Buja!! (big SMILE)

Guest11: Hi Ms Gloria, Tink, Elizabeth :-) Hi Pashun

Guest3: Hi Guest11.

THRVPashun: Who would like to ask Glory a question about Domina, or anything else? :)

Guest11: I don't have a book, but would You sign my hand? :-) or.... LOL

Tnkrbell77: lol

THRVGloryB: I'll sign your hand when you're holding a book in it.

Guest7: would u consider finding a dom through the classifed is a good way to go I'm from NH it's not too prevelant out here

Guest11: *gape* lol

Guest4: so we can ask a q. not regarding the book?

THRVGloryB: Well, Guest4, I would appreciate it if you came to another Sunday chat...to ask your questions. We usually are open to anything, but tonight is a special chat.

THRVBuja: Yes, indeed...this is a very unique event. A world premiere of a book, right here at Passion!

THRVGloryB: It's getting uniquer by the moment. :-) I've never known Guest2 & Guest1 to be so quiet!

Guest4: I understand. Sorry

Guest1: lol

Guest2: ?

Guest11: Ms Gloria I can get some questions going that might help..

THRVGloryB: No problemo, Guest4. Guest11, feel free to ask 'em.

THRVPashun: Go right ahead, Guest1 :)

Guest4: thank you ;-)

Guest7: I'm asking a question what's the best way to contact and meet a domme

Guest2: are you doing other kinds of promotions, tours, interviews on radio etc?

Tnkrbell77: <----is wondering if country is bound and gagged.

Guest6: where does Arden land on the totem pole?

THRVBuja: Guest7, could you come back next Sunday with that question? :)

Guest1: : )

Guest12: hey ho all :)

Guest2: LOL, naw, I am going easy on her tonite, she hasn't been feeling well today.

THRVPashun: huggles Guest12, darlin :)

Guest7: is all questions geared toward the book only

THRVGloryB: Guest2--no tours, no, and I rather doubt any radio station would let me say what I've just said about the book. :-) But I may do some personal appearances & on-line stuff.

THRVPashun: Tonight, yes, Guest7 :)

THRVBuja: But, we here at Passion are proud to have you! :)

Guest7: does barnes and noble carry this

THRVGloryB: Thank you, Buja. I do appreciate it!

Guest2: what about NPR, they do some rather umm, esoteric subjects.

Guest12: LOL

THRVBuja: <<-- waiting for the angry phone call from Steve Case :)

THRVGloryB: Guest7--B&N carries it in their on-line bookstores, yes. As do Amazon Books, Borders & several hundred other on-line shops. To purchase the book from a regular bookstore, you'll have to order it.

Guest12: but NPR is a touch too PC for BDsm.......

Guest3: ?

THRVBuja: If anyone wants to order the book...and you all should.. you can click on the button on the page that got you here... or click on Gloria's lovely face on the top right and that will take you there :)
.
Tnkrbell77: You mean we aren't PC?

THRVPashun: Please go ahead, Guest3 :)

Guest7: thank you

Guest1: we all talking in abbreviations now, or what?

Guest3: Thanks, Pashun.

Guest12: ummmmmm...........not as such......

THRVPashun: :)

Guest2: LOL

Guest3: I asked you this a long time ago, Glory, but I've forgotten your answer... :( How much of Domina (the character) is you? :)

THRVGloryB: Guest1, it's dom-sprach.

Guest1: lol

THRVGloryB: Guest3! What a question! :-) I'm reporting you to your Master! :-)

Guest1: oohhhh, GOOD question. ok, maybe not so good.

Guest3: Ack!

Guest11: HA! stone her

THRVGloryB: Who still has those spanking gloves I bought him to use on you!

Guest3: I know he does!!

Guest2: uh-oh, Guest3 - you might be in a little bit 'o trouble now.

THRVGloryB: Well, let's see. There is a LOT of me in Domina, obviously, because I only write SM scenes that turn me on personally.

Tnkrbell77: <---is glad he took the spanking gloves with him this weekend.

Guest3: <---- HATES the spanking gloves!

Guest2: <---wonders where he might get a pair of those...

THRVGloryB: Writing porn is another of my many little fetishes, so it's safe to say...that all of the fantasies in DOMINA are things I've either done or would love to do (or see).

THRVBuja: So, for all of you who have wondered about what Gloria is like, this is the way to find out! :)

THRVGloryB: Also, Domina owns a publishing company, and edits a poetry series... and she has a slave who resembles a certain Tinkerbell.... and she lives in Atlanta and her home is referred to as a"castle in the sky," so...hmmmm....(rubbing chin)...Nah! Nothing like me. :-)

THRVPashun: So you have written about things you've not done yet, Gloria?

Guest8: ?

THRVPashun: Guest8, please go right ahead :)

THRVGloryB: Pashun, yes, I have always written out fantasies, including ones which are probably too extreme for me in real life.

Guest8: Didn't you say last week that the book would not be in stores for a couple of months? that it could only be ordered online or am I mistaken

Guest1: ?

THRVGloryB: Guest8, the book won't be in regular bookstores for a while. But it's now available on-line. That's right--bookstores won't have it in stock... but every book that has an ISBN code (those funny numbers you see on the back)... can be ordered by any and every bookstore in the US & Canada.

Guest8: Thanks.

THRVPashun: Guest1, go ahead with your question, dear :)

Guest1: seriously, how can we get an autographed copy...without driving to Atlanta?

Guest2: ?

Guest11: ?

THRVGloryB: Guest1, I've been thinking about that. I may consider signing copies... that people send me, if they cover the postage. Another option (down the road) would be to buy a stack of copies myself and sell them. But I really MUCH prefer the publisher doing all the selling.

THRVPashun: Guest2, please go ahead :)

Guest1: well, if you decide we can send you copies, put something up on the website about it, k?

THRVBuja: Wasn't Tnk going to do a side-business selling signed copies? :) Only $50,000 or something? :)

Guest2: How many copies did "Dif' Loving" sell and do you have a number expected thru word of mouth in the community? for Domina?

THRVGloryB: Shall do, Country. I'd love to find an elegant solution. Guest1, DifLove-- after 5 yrs. out there--has sold about 60,000 copies. I honestly have no idea how many copies I'll sell of Domina.

Guest2: wow that's better than some midlist books

Guest1: two copies of DifLove here : )

THRVGloryB: I've published this book privately--DifLove was published by Random House, which has a HUGE marketing machine. I'm hoping that people who already know & like my writing... will take a chance on DOMINA, will love it & give it good reviews...and will tell their friends about it. I expect to sell it by word of mouth. Yep, ARC. We're one of the top backlist sellers for Villard (the division of RH which published DifLove).

Guest1: ?

Guest3: Oh, yeah. Reviews...oops.

THRVPashun: Guest11..go ahead with your question. Guest1 you are after that :)

THRVGloryB: By the way, folks, you can download the first 30 pages for free... by following the links that THRVSexDoc so kindly put up here.

Guest11: so this is mainly erotica? Why did You decide on that genre?

Guest2: already downloaded em and read em.

THRVBuja: He's a great guy ain't he? :)

THRVGloryB: What did you think Guest2?

THRVPashun: he sure is :) hahah

THRVGloryB: Buja--he is amazing. ;-)

THRVGloryB: Guest11--this is PURELY erotica. Well, it has social commentary in it, I suppose...because Arden has so many conflicts, coming from a Christian background...and stepping into this den of iniquity.

Guest2: I think you know the inside of a man's head. (among other things :-)

Guest1: lol

THRVGloryB: Guest2--I think I do too. ;-) And it's a DAMN SCARY PLACE, lemme tell you!

Guest1: ROFL!!!

Guest2: no sh**

THRVPashun: Guest1... please go ahead :)

THRVBuja: I have to say though that it is not *just* erotica --it is quite the novel in it's own right!

THRVGloryB: Did I mention that Arden is the son of a Baptist preacher? (Now you see what nice Jewish dominatrices fantasize about!)

THRVBuja: Heathen! :)

Guest1: well, this is kind of on the subject, but a wee bit off....not that you didn't cover it well in the first book, but do you think you'll ever write a follow up to DifLove?

Guest2: I must say Glory, yer easily as twisted as me.

THRVGloryB: Guest1, in effect my new non-fiction book, CONSENTING ADULTS.... takes up where DifLove left off. That book will be out from Simon & Schuster next year. It's based on the thousands of letters I've received from readers of DifLove (and DifLove On-Line) over the years. It's more a book of practical advice, both for novices with very basic questions and experienced lifestylers, with very advanced questions.


Guest1: ????

Guest1: wow, hadn't heard about that one yet. Look forward to it. When next year? Is there a deadline on this one?

THRVGloryB: Guest1--I turn in the ms. this November, and the book will come out in December 1999. It's scheduled to be a Christmas book!

Guest1: : )

THRVBuja: Quite the stocking stuffer!

Guest2: Ho Ho HO!!!

THRVPashun: I'd love to find that under the tree! :)

THRVBuja: Guest2, are you calling someone a ho?

Guest8: what a nice Christmas gift!

Guest11: I'll be sure to run right out and buy it for my Mother

THRVGloryB: I won't make any jokes in poor taste about crosses.

Guest2: LOL

THRVGloryB: Guest11, you just never know how she might react. I seem to have this *effect* on people.

THRVBuja: Well folks, it is that magic time...one of you is about to win your very own copy of Domina!

THRVGloryB: A magic time?

THRVBuja: Yes you do Gloria ;)

THRVGloryB: Oh, Buja! I thought you were going to pull a bunny rabbit out of your pants!

THRVBuja: I don't want to awe and frighten our visitors! :)

THRVGloryB: How disappointed. It's only the...GREAT BIG EXCITING GIVEAWAY!!

Guest1: lol

THRVBuja: Pashun, will you pick a number between 1 and 15?

THRVPashun: 8

THRVGloryB: My reptilian heart is all a flutter.

THRVBuja: And our winner is....Guest10!!! Congratulations!

THRVPashun: Woo HOO!!!!! Congrats Guest10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest10: yeah thank you

THRVGloryB: WOW! That should perk Guest10 up!!!!

THRVBuja: Guest10, if you will send me your mailing address direct to THRVBuja, I will make sure you get your copy.

Guest10: ok

THRVGloryB: Guest10, by the time you finish reading the book, you WILL be tired... or at least your fingers will be. ;-)

THRVBuja: For those of you that didn't win...remember, you can order your very own copy... TONIGHT!

THRVGloryB: When I was writing the book, I distributed chapters... to my own little band of merry perverts (tink, Guest3, buja... and two other depraved individuals)...and I had the men rate it.. according to number of erections per chapter.

Guest2: ?

THRVBuja: And it is a truly spectacular book! Merry Perverts, ho ho ho :)

THRVPashun: I can't wait to read it! :) ohhhhh :)

Guest1: lol

THRVBuja: Of course, I'm easy :) No Viagra required! :)

Guest8: now there's a rating system I can relate to

THRVGloryB: I'm happy to report, DOMINA passed the Genital Arousal Test...with flying colors. Why, even shy little Guest3 had a shiver or two!

Guest2: So Glory, when we have finished reading our copy where do we send it to get yer handwriting on it?

THRVGloryB: You can drop me email & I'll give you my post office address.

Guest3: <---- LOVED chapter 4!

Guest2: okey doke, that werks. :)

THRVGloryB: Gee, Guest3, what did you love about it?

THRVBuja: I like how everyone has a favorite section. It is sort of like the Bible :) Soon, we'll all be quoting chapter and verse.

Guest11: <-- very green with envy

Guest1: yeah, Guest3? what'd you love, huh?

THRVGloryB: Guest11--I haven't had any lesbians appraise it yet. Do you offer your services?

Guest3: I liked the cage...the utter lack of privacy and total humiliation. :)

THRVGloryB: Poor POOR Arden! Forced to pee and poop in public!

Guest2: So can you also measure a femsub's genital arousal quotient in pints per chapter?

Guest11: I'd be more than happy to offer my services to You, Ms Gloria. You know that :-)

THRVBuja: Well folks... we need to start winding down. Gloria, do you have any closing comments?

THRVGloryB: Guest2--you mean The Universal Moisture Quotient?

Guest2: yep, that's it. Lol

THRVGloryB: Guest2, well I will trust you to get Country cracking. So to speak.

THRVBuja: Remember folks... you can order your very own copy of Domina from right here at Passion.

Tnkrbell77: <---wonders if we need to go shopping for a cage for Guest3.

Guest3: Tink -- don't go giving anyone ideas, ya hear?

Guest1: lol

THRVBuja: Thank you Gloria, and all of you...for joining us for this special event.

THRVGloryB: Thanks for coming, everyone! And special thanks to you, Buja, for making this happen! And for guaranteeing me at least one sale! :-)

THRVBuja: Goodnight all... and perverted dreams! :)

THRVPashun: Thanks Gloria and Buja! ;) I have ordered my book today.. can't WAIT to get it! ;)

Guest10: Thank you and Thank you for the book too

THRVBuja: Make that TWO! :)

Guest1: thanks for havin us.

THRVGloryB: Thanks, Pashun!! :-) Smoochies!
