ThornDaddy & Dollie perform the book brilliantly. I doubt I would have appreciated this novel as treeware. The passion and feeling the authors interject into the podiobook is unbelievable. The love, respect and passion that you can hear in their voices is astounding.

I applaud their bravery. They share many intimate details and ‘private’ correspondences with us. By doing this, they’ve enabled us to empathize with them, even those of us who are just beginning our exploration of the BDSM world.

“Diary of an S+M Romance” gave me new appreciation for “Your kink is not my kink.” I would not be happy living like they do but that is irrelevant. The important thing is that I respect their right to pursue happiness however they choose to do so. I am thankful that these two have demonstrated to me that there is an infinite number of possibilities in which that is possible. Thank you to both of you!

I gained an entirely new perspective on this alt. lifestyle… you hear S&M and automatically people think 1. Pain and torture 2. Whips and chains 3. Leather and PVC wares of some kind. Rarely is an actual working relationship explained and explored at this level.

It has made me rethink my own deep seated desires to be a sub, but also to be a dom… it’s made me evaluate what a really want in a relationship.

These two have become ‘friends in my head’… not only entertainment, but also mentors.

LOVE YOU THORNDADDY & DOLLIE!!!

I wish you both the best in everything you do, I really mean it.

MEW!!

Then one night, a miracle happened…

Just for fun we did a random Internet search for ‘BDSM Podcast’ and found Daddy & Dollie’s creation. Ever since then, we have been sharing a chapter a night, and learning how to REALLY talk frankly about BDSM. Our play is now fearless, and our love just grows stronger with every session, because we have a loving foundation upon which to beat the crap out of each other (lol), And a pair of VERY educated voices to guide us in a new journey…and for you newbies reading this, it’s no joke: We love the whip, but we also touch each other’s souls, and knowing what Daddy & Dollie know has only made us grow stronger in our bond to each other.

For those who are new to the BDSM Universe, you have found the best place to learn. It’s tough, but honest, and no punches will be pulled. (And isn’t that why we came here?)

And for you Pro’s, you won’t be disappointed either! ENJOY!

If only we all had communication like ThornDaddy & Dollie. The writing style is so approachable and so endearing, you feel as if you are right there with them. Even if you are not in the S&M lifestyle you will gain a new sense of respect for a wonderful couple. And feel warm and fuzzy all over!!!!!!!!!

I have recently completed your podcast and I wanted to say thank you for sharing your innermost private escapes with me! Even though I am not one that shares the desire for physical pain, (okay…not completely, but maybe a little I do share Dollies need and desire to masculate her\my man, in and out of the bedroom. I believe society today, and women’s need to be “equal’ per se, has indeed left our men in a place where they are unsure of their roles and this in turn has made a generation of “weaker” men. I dont think this is what we had in mind when we demanded equality, well not all of us, anyway.

I very much enjoyed hearing of the subservience of an indepenent strong woman, but I enjoyed even more the respect and love portrayed through ThornDaddy because of this reverence. Thank you for this.

On a funny side note, even though I have never taken part in any part of “formal” S&M, I am, as Dollie said in the last chapter, an endorphin junkie and am continually looking for ways to keep things interesting in the bedroom. Well, needless to say (LOL) two nights ago, while on top of my man, I was frustrated with him since he hasn’t quite been in sync with my needs, so I slapped his face and told him all about it while right there on top of him, in the middle of the act. I am sure you can imagine his surprise while he looked at me and said “you just slapped me!” I asked him if he liked it and he wasnt sure, but I saw a glimpse of excitement in his eye and was sure he did when he decided to take control and while turning me over gave me a nice hard slap on my ass! this made me smile and made me know he heard me. There is hope for my tang boy yet!

Much admiration,

The material was presented in a very nice non threatening way. The authors are obviously into each other and love each other very much. I guess that is where it might break down, I’m not a hopeless romantic and I’m not into romantic movies or books or anything of that nature and this books seems to groan on and on about how much they love each other to the point of it nearly making me sick. Break out the whips and chains and get wild, not a problem there, but carry on about love this and love that and then love some more and I’ll start looking for the fast forward button.

Regardless the book was enlightening and introduced me to a unique lifestyle that some people appreciate. I could have done without all the love talk though and saved an hour or two.

Though she did remark “I know the guy who is lord and master of our corporate network. He’s too gentle to spy.”

One could say, “That’s what you think” (I did), but dollie says “He still smiles at me, and it’s not a leer.”
