@authorshaylingandhi just got me thinking about my public image. I too shy away from admitting my kinky side. I'm afraid of I revealed my dark side the conversation would go like this: So you write kinky stuff? Me: yes Like what? Me: bondage, tickling, mythical silk that engulfs the wearer in a cocoon of orgasmic pleasure. Interesting. How many books have you sold? Me: none. Oh. Insert deep sigh here.
