CV Meeting: Erotic Writing as a Tool

We’re joined by Jack Stratton (http://writingdirty.com/) this week for a workshop in erotic writing.

Erotic Writing as a Tool: Erotica and Sex Blogs as Tools for Negotiation, Seduction and the Articulation of Desire
1. How to use writing as a tool to articulate and process your desires and experiences.
2. How to use sex writing and correspondences as a negotiation tools.
3. How to use erotic writing as a tool of seduction and a way of making partners and prospective partners aware of your desires.

The presentation will include handouts and a short writing exercise in which participants will try and express their desires in artistic ways to communicate to partners and prospective partners.

I’ve presented at Sex 2.0 DC, KinkForAll NY and DC. I’m a published erotic and non-erotic writer with a thriving erotica and sex blog at writingdirty.com

CV Meeting: I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Hurt Me

Conversio Virium returns January 25^th with Mistress Coraline

I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Hurt Me: Playing with a Vanilla Partner

Your lover is sweet, your lover is hot, your lover is… vanilla?!? Not everyone is kinky but a lot of vanilla people are kinkier than they know. We’ll talk about broaching the subject, negotiation for beginners, where to learn the basics, what NOT to do and how to deal if your interests simply cannot match. Kink is a wonderful way to deepen intimacy, explore yourself and your partner, and have a hell of a lot of fun. Isn’t it time your lover found that out?

This class is presented by Coraline, former pro-domme and long time pervert. She entered the scene in 2002 and has learned from and played with some of NYC’s greatest players. She has has taught classes for TES, DSF, WHAP and Galleria Domain 2.

Location: 316 Hamilton Hall, Columbia main campus
