Feedback

T, ZK,

Thank you for coming back to us. We appreciate your thoughts on this thread.

We are finding that a lot of creative work we could be putting into our blog requires a degree of time and privacy that we really do not have because of that thing called WORK, and the fact we still have the younger generation popping in and out of the house. I just hate it when one or more of our kids pull into the drive way and Angie has me trussed up in the trapeze, and she can't work the ropes fast enough in that black rubber outfit. But seriously folks....


Keeping a blog fresh and original is quite the challenge. We are not one of those couples that lives a life of 24/7 excitement and total creativity. And we have to keep coming back to the original intent of writing a diary about us, that readers can relate to, but not writing for the readers.


Anyway, if we continue to utilize photos as the "window dressing" of our blog we will eventually explore a "photo montage" technique that we hope will convey a progression of sensual/sexual/ emotional themes. It will not be easy to do given the amount of work, and privacy, that setting up a professional quality montage will require. The secondary challenge is conveying what we feel and experience in an honest manner without it coming off to us, or the readers, as a Hustler shoot.

We may also look into trying what I will call "video vignettes" to convey the same thing, but to an accompanying soundtrack. Music is something for which Angie and I have a dedicated interest, and it would be great to incorporate specific selections into the medium to augment the short story.

But this will require a commitment far beyond anything we give the blog now. So that project will require significant development. Given the subject matter we share here, there is also the danger of falling into a porn site, so the whole concept will have to be carefully managed. The other part of our challenge is the development of a polyamorous lifestyle. It was always meant to be a part of the original intent, and content, of this blog, However, it is developing very slowly due to our paranoia of uncontrolled disclosure, and the possibility that we may have put the bar very high for the person and conditions needed to progress with this exploration. But, steady as she goes, I guess.

Thanks again.

- Alex
