A Bit About Bondage for the Knotty Girl

Posted by Maggie Casper, 06/29/08 06:00 AM

Knotty Girl is now available in print as part of Samhain’s Overheated anthology! How exciting is that! I’m going to post the blurb here for those of you who might be interested but then I am going to talk about something I thoroughly enjoy, which is the general, over all theme of Knotty Girl. Bondage. Yummm!

Knotty Girl
By Maggie Casper

Shelby Langley was not sub, slave or Mistress, she was merely kinky. Point her to a BDSM club where she could watch and experience pretty much anything the mind could conjure, without the tangled web of an actual relationship, and she was in orgasmic bliss.

Long into the lifestyle, Craig Jensen was able to spot a submissive in denial from a mile away. Usually he left them be to find their own way, only keeping an eye out for their safety while on his turf, but there was something about the sweet, young blonde who had a love for rope bondage that called for him to claim her as his own.

Okay, enough of that. Now back to bondage. From silk scarves and neck ties to rope and leather all the way over to the cold feel of metal cuffs and chains clinking so deliciously, there is nothing quite like the feel of it. The hug you get while wrapped up tightly, possibly in more places than just your wrists and ankles. Throw in some toys, maybe a nice set of nipple clamps and a good partner or two and oh my! There is no limit to the pleasure.

For me personally it is all about rope. Now don’t get me wrong, the rest is really nice as well, especially the clink of chain and the smell and feel of body warmed leather. However, there is just something absolutely wonderful about the abrasiveness of rope not to mention the pretty marks it leaves behind. I find great freedom in being bound. It is a time when I have no other job but to experience the sensations cascading over and through me. The closeness and exchange of energy I have with the one doing the binding is big in my world as well. Not to mention it is fun as hell.

Since we’re on the subject I thought I would throw out a few names of those who teach the tricks of the bondage trade in case you wanted to search them. These are people I have either read their books, saw them present and enjoyed immensely their classes or both. Scott Smith, Lee Harrington, Two Knotty Boys and Midori are a few of my favorites.

So, now that I’ve shared a bit about my love for bondage I’d like to hear some of yours. If you have tried bondage of any sort, what is your favorite thing to be bound with? If you have not yet tried it out, do you want to and what do you think you would enjoy most?

Those of you who post a reply here will be entered into a drawing for a print copy of Overheated. I will come back and post the winner’s name on July 3rd so be sure and check back then!

  1. I have tried bondage nothing big, but just the idea that I wasn’t in control of what was going to happen had always appealed to me. I probably started with ties and now my SO and I have velcro straps to use. We don’t use it all the time, as a matter of fact these days it is harder to find that time alone to enjoy those games (we each have a teenage daughter) and their social lives have interferred with our social lives LOL. But I do know that when we make that time together, we feel more connected to each other. I know I relax and let go more than any other time.

  2. I haven’t tried bondage yet, haven’t found anyone I trust enough to try it with. I know what I would like is to find someone I trust enough to give up control to. As you can tell I have trust issues.lol I’m interested in it and will look up the names that you gave us.

    I have never tried it, but I have been shopping for a bed for a while (I’ve always just had mattresses on the rolling metal frame) and no matter how many times I’ve changed my mind about what I want, I’ve noticed I seem to make sure that there is some place a potential strap could be attached. Not metal though, that would scratch the finish! So, I guess I should be shopping for a guy that I trust, as well as a new bed :)

  4. A very wise friend once told me “The beauty of bondage is the ability to enjoy what you would not otherwise authorize.” For me, I grew up in a very conservative famitly, where sex simply wasn’t discused. To this day, I am certain that my parents never had any kind of sex. It just wasn’t the sort of thing that would ever became acceptable conversation of a lady. At best, I grew to believe it was more of a duty that I should not expect to be very enjoyable.
    So when I met a sort of psycho, “special ops” kind of guy, who on our first sexual encounter, handcuffed me and insisted that I endure the best sex of my life, I had to marry him :) It was raw and intense, and I was in no way responsible for such animal behavior. Over many years now, I have been fortunate to be living one of the greatest romance fanatasies of all times.

  5. I came from a very strict family, where sex wasn’t discussed and should only be done after you were married because that’s what good girls do. Only bad, dirty girls enjoyed sex. I have been into bondage for a long time. I love the fact that while I consent to being tied up, I never know what to expect. I always know that whatever happens from being forced to endure a spanking or dealing with every toy imaginable, I am not responsible for what the innocent girl in me was “forced to endure” I love the never knowing with what I will be restrained or how. I can’t tell you how giddy I get when I walk in the room and see cuffs out on the corners of the bed and a row of toys at the bottom of it.

  6. I have an enormous fetish for bondage and I have several bondage toys in my collection that I use regularly. There’s just something devilishly dangerous about letting someone tie you up and being powerless to stop them from doing to you whatever they wish. Being blindfolded at the same time is extremely erotic too.

  7. Sheila You are my winner!! Please e-mail me with your shipping info so I can send you your signed copy of Overheated.

    Thank you everyone for playing.
