A year ago I was working on a seasonal story for Valentine's Day. I knew I wouldn't get it published in time. I won't get it done in time this year either, but I'm thinking I should just do it, even though it won't be live today.

[sbradshaw]

Pour one out for #brainwashing.

A writer’s quandary...

I have a story I'm working on - mind control erotica, what else? It was meant to be Valentines themed, but didn't get it finished in time due to other commitments. Should I rewrite it away from valentines, publish soon despite no longer being timely, or save it for next year?

New Stories Coming Soon

I've been quiet for a while again, but two whole separate stories are in the pipeline and coming soon...

One is a continuation of the "Controlled to Share" series, featuring a serial cuckcake with mental powers ensuring she gets what she wants.

The other is a new series featuring a woman who enjoys fantasies of being mind controlled into a bimbo/slut, who stumbles on some hypnosis videos that actually work. This will be a "slow burn" series.

Look out for them in the next couple of weeks!

New seasonal mind control erotica ebook, just in time for it to still be seasonal.

A couple have been experimenting with hypnosis play, and she decides to try something different to welcome him home for Christmas.

Have any other MC authors ever had reviews that amount to kink-shaming?

“What... what am I doing?” Cathy asked, sleepily. She looked around, taking in the strange surroundings, her position on the floor.

“Ah, so you’re coming around,” noted an unfamiliar, masculine voice. “It’s important for the next stage that you be aware of what’s happening. You will find that you are unable to disobey instruction, and that you enjoy obeying. Once this has been demonstrated, we can move on to your final training. Now, play with your pussy.”

“What? No!” she objected, even as her hand moved back and between her legs, finding no clothes beneath her skirt and her pussy wet. “How... how are you doing this?”

“That will be explained later. Now, please bring yourself to orgasm, as quick as you can.”

“Oh, fuck,” she muttered as her hand worked harder on her clit, occasionally diving inside her to vary the sensation. Images swirled in her mind, imagining all sorts of disturbingsexy scenarios she would never have dreamed ofcouldn’t wait to try.

She was dancing with an anonymous guy at a club, then taking him to an alley to suck his cock. She was kissing another woman, then sixty-nining with her. She was with two men, sucking cock while she was fucked doggy-style. She was offering her ass to a man she couldn’t see. She was licking another woman’s clit while she got fucked, tongue darting between cock and clit.

It all quickly overwhelmed her, and her pussy spasmed as she came hard.

“Very good,” noted the male voice. “Now we’ll see if you can put those lessons into practice.”

Cathy simply listened, horrifiedimpatient to get a chance to fuck, suck and lick as she was born to.

[sbradshaw]

She knew that every rub sapped her resistance. She knew that every orgasm made her more controlled. Sooner or later she’d be allowed to stop, but by then it would be too late.

She could stop whenever she wanted, of course. No-one was forcing her to be so complicit in her own corruption. It just felt so good.

[sbradshaw]

Let the light reach into your mind, making you soft, making you pliable. Making you ready to accept new truths. Letting us turn you into whatever it is we want you to be.

Good girl. Sink now...

Hypnotic Submission Experiences

A while back I tried something different in my erotic writing. Rather than tell a story, I wrote something that the reader could, if they so choose, use as a fantasy about submitting. A guided visualisation, to help them imagine that they were being brainwashed.

Maybe she could have resisted the light show, the music with its insistent message of compliance, of sexual servitude. She might have been able to resist all that, but for the drugs.

Being high seemed to make the colours pulse and blur in a way that drove straight into her brain. The music spoke with echoes and overtones that drilled right into her subconscious.

She could feel her will failing, and it felt wonderful.

Drugs make me easy 😇

[sbradshaw]

Yeah, I know that feeling...

Me, a writer: I should probably sit down and actually write now

Hypno, Consent, and Meeting People Without Being A Jerk

As a blog that services a fantasy hypno fetish, this is your regular reminder that it’s a fantasy, not an instruction manual. In real life - and, for this purpose, communication with real people over the internet *is* real life - sexual interaction requires consent. Just don’t. Don’t send women (or men) you don’t know random hypno materials and commands.  Don’t start roleplaying without having received consent to that roleplay.  It’s not flirting, it’s not funny, it almost certainly won’t be appreciated. At best, you’ve been that guy who thinks he’s a masterly dom but shows he’s actually super insecure and inexperienced.  At worst, sending that kind of stuff can have really harmful interactions with previous hypno experiences, trauma, anxiety, epilepsy, ASD, or other medical conditions.  Don’t do it.  In fact, just don’t start doing anything kinky or sexual with *anybody*, in any context, online or otherwise, without obtaining explicit consent in advance.  That’s just good sense. (All this advice is aimed mostly at men, because it’s usually men who are getting it wrong, and because I’m a man and I’m speaking from what I know personally - but it’s good advice generically.) (Read on for advice on how to approach people online respectfully and successfully.)

Oh, welcome home!

What do you mean “what am I doing?” - I’m just hanging out, waiting for you to get home.

Why shouldn’t I be on the counter in my underwear?

I had a really interesting day... I found this really cool website... I don’t really remember what was on it, but it was fascinating.

Anyway, can I suck your cock now? It feels like it’s been forever since I last had a cock in my mouth...

Interview with Wiseguy at Mindquake 2018

binaural-histolog: So how did all this get started?

WiseGuy: That’s a big question.

BH: Okay, let me back up. So it used to be a very small scene. Brian David Phillips was doing things on Yahoo, and there was hypnovideo, the Maestro, etc. And then at some point it got too big to track. What happened?

WG: Well, the first thing I went to was probably 2007-2008, which was Hypnoticon. There was another conference, Hypnocon, that has been going on for like 15 years or so, but it’s always been exclusive to the gay men’s community so the rest of us didn’t know about it.

At that time, I was a fiction writer. I posted on mcstories.com. And when I got there, it was a big surprise how many people read my stories, because if something is really popular, you’ll get two, maybe three emails if you’re lucky. There’s no reddit or like button. There’s no feedback. Simon keeps everything minimal and pure. He’ll publish anything with very few exceptions, and he’ll do no editing on it. It’s his… what’s the word? It’s his aesthetic. And then suddenly you get all these people coming up and they know you and they like your stuff.

So Hypnoticon was a big success, and Mephki and Buddy [DrSlashBlight] got the idea of putting a convention together. Buddy was the face, and Mephki was the brains, the organizer. Buddy had this tremendous skill of being able to stand in the middle of the room and say “Guys, this is what we’re going to do and it’s going to be great and you’re going to love it.” And Mephki pulled everyone together and made it all happen. That was NEEHU, 2009. Mephki and Buddy had the New England Hypnosis Group, and there was a recreational hypnosis group next door, and they knew Lady Ru'etha, and she said come to this thing, and that was NEEHU 1. It was a single day. I sat in a couple of panels, talking about erotic hypnosis.

It was literally an unconference and a play party at night, in a not so great part of town. I was surprised that we didn’t get in trouble with the police, and we realized later that the illegal police biker bar was next door, so the police weren’t going to interfere with any disturbances around that area.

So NEEHU got bigger and bigger, and these groups all started to meet up, and so the people that were already into this found out about it. There were some things independent of NEEHU. Lee Allure and MrDream had their own thing that they run, DeepMindDarkwood. It’s a camp, they keep it limited down to 45 people and that’s it. But there were more people that wanted to join. Kansas City and Texas had a bunch of stuff happen. Black Rock City. And now there’s five things happening yearly, and meetup groups throughout the country.

BH: Do you think there’s a reason why everything started to come together in 2008?

Yes and no. All the elements were there, it could have happened earlier or later. But all the right things had to happen in the right order. NEEHU really needed Mephki and Buddy to kick it off, and there needed to be enough meetups and enough groups to keep it going. And there was a lot of learning in the community.

BH: What has the community learned?

WG: Oh, so much. In the beginning, informed consent was not a thing. If you were at a conference, it was assumed that you were consenting. You’d walk up to someone in the hallway, say “wanna see something cool?” and if they said yeah, you’d drop them. That’s just… you can’t do that now. It’s not acceptable.

Safety and ethics was not a thing. There was a talk in NEEHU that was literally “Why do we need ethics?” And that’s changed so much now. Safety and ethics are the first thing you learn, and every conference has a code of conduct.

BH: What do you think the community still has to learn?

WG: We still have to learn how to handle our shit properly.

We know how to handle the people who are clueless. We know how to handle the people who are obviously bad. We still have to figure out how to handle the people who are predators, the truly manipulative people. They’ll pick their targets carefully, and it’ll be someone who is new, and it happens alone in a room. There’s no way to know what happened. It’s one person’s word against another. And it may not even be deception, they may believe their version of events completely. Belief is different from reality. These people will have friends, they have defenders, they’ll say all the right things. So it’s hard. There may not be a good answer.

BH: I remember reading a book on abuse called Why Does He Do That, and realizing I’d met abusers and seen them operate, and still hadn’t put it all together. It is hard. On the other hand, I was encouraged by Divney’s discussion about always believing the accuser by default.

WG: It’s more complex than a single answer, though. I don’t have a problem with BEHIVE’s policy in their application, but my concern is that it doesn’t scale well to larger events where the stakes are a lot higher than being banned from a local munch.

Mephki: This isn’t a legal argument though. There’s no standard beyond a reasonable doubt. It’s a private party you can’t go to, not going to jail or having your children taken away from you.

WG: Agreed, but it’s still damage. It’s something we haven’t figured out yet.

[Much discussion ensues, in which everyone in the room weighs in. Everyone has cogent and nuanced arguments that I could not write notes on fast enough.]

BH: What’s really impressed you lately? What’s improved in the community that you didn’t predict?

WG: Oh! Standards have evolved so much. There are so many bright young voices. Our representation has improved so much. There used to be a joke when you got out of a conference, you’d say “Remember me? I was the bearded white guy.” Because that was everyone. Now you have non-binary people, femme representing people, bottom types. There are so many more points of view and inclusion in the community.

BH: One thing I’ve noticed is that there is an assumption that erotic hypnosis corresponds to kink and BDSM generally.

AmHypnotic, chiming in: Yes, and they’re not the same thing. There’s this tendency that the bigger and more intense something looks, the more impressive it is. But that’s not what makes it work.

BH: I mention it because I really like the gentle femdom movement I’ve seen lately, where gently pulling on someone’s hair is recognized and seen as dominant, and there’s no pain or fear. It’s not about turning everything up to 11.

WG: There’s a lot of good things, but stuff like that is coming from the kink community in general. The EH community is barely 10 years old, and what we have been doing is copying what other conferences are doing, like scholarships for female presenters. And the internet and local groups getting together has been huge. There’s so much better vetting of presenters and sharing of information now.

There’s still a problem with sharing information. The TNG group had a presenter that had been vetted and it was a horror show. And then once it came out, there were presentations she’d given before that made it clear she had done this before, and so it’s a question of getting all those people together. So there’s a missing stair problem there.

Mephki: There is a discord server called the Watchtower which is all the conference and group leaders together, and there is a vetting service. There’s work being done. There’s hypnation. It is getting better. You have to be careful about ban lists, but they are private party events.

BH: What do you think the recreational and EH community can teach the clinical hypnosis community?

WG: [Laughter] There’s no comparison. The EH community is leaps and bounds ahead of the professionals. There’s no need for them to do it for money, so they have more freedom to experiment, and so it’s all about the creativity. But there are professionals still reading off of scripts written in the 1950s.

[Much discussion ensues]

BH: I know there are talented individuals. Melissa Tiers, for example.

WG: No, there are absolutely some great people out there. Melissa Tiers is a rockstar. She’s very good, no bullshit, always happy to show new things she’s learned. Kaz Riley is another good example. But the field as a whole is still behind and playing it safe. There can be ten different tracks at a conference and not one presentation you want to go to.

Hypnomedia: Hypnothoughts Live is really good. They have a good mix of clinical and stage hypnotists.

WG: I’ve heard that, but I’m afraid that if I go, I’ll get outed.

BH: So final question. Erotic hypnosis would seem to have a natural overlap with using hypnosis for sexual disorders. And yet, there’s almost nothing about using hypnosis to treat sexual disorders. And there’s sex research on BDSM and kink, but there’s very little research into erotic hypnosis. Why do you think that is?

WG: I couldn’t tell you. I know there’s a Dr Will Horton who puts together a five day course on Erotic Hypnosis. The first three days are clinical, focusing on erectile dysfunction, anorgasmia, and things like that. The final two days, he hands out copies of Mind Play and talks about erotic hypnosis. The mixture of clinical treatment and erotic material in the same course is not something that anyone can do, but Dr Horton has a Psy D, so he can get away with doing it.

BH: But it does seem like so many techniques are essentially erotic hypnosis with the serial numbers filed off. Tantric Massage, Sensate Focus, and so on.

WG: There are many hypnosis things that do not show up in the field. But I don’t know.
