Hi, I’m Mark, a happily married, straight male who’s here for the sole purpose to read and submit stories and make some likeminded friends.

I joined Lush when I found I could submit stories I've written for everyone to enjoy, and comment on, good or bad. My stories tend to be long, with a lot of background details and dialog to paint a colorful picture of what’s happening and make my characters come to life in your mind. I like the way one commenter described one of my stories as “Theatre for the mind.” That’s exactly the kind of reaction I’m hoping for! I hope you read some of them and have a similar experience. They're sometimes inspired by a spark of reality but are 99-100% fantasy.

I've had a lifelong fascination with spanking. I can’t seem to get enough of it and enjoy reading those kinds of stories here. I've submitted over a hundred of my own spanking stories, a great many of them part of several series with the 'You Need A Spanking' (YNAS) theme, an icebreaking phrase given to me by a RL friend, but sadly the stories are 99% fiction.

I've been branching out to other genres and seem to find even more interest from readers in categories like Facesitting, Cheating and MILF. I hope you'll check them out!

I really appreciate my growing list of followers, a choice few of which are always there to offer encouragement.

Many thanks go to all the Lush moderators who've done all they can to make me a better writer. Special thanks go to moderators Krystal, Cydia, Genny, and especially Kat, who've done more than their share.

So, hello to all Lush friends, members and moderators! I hope you try, and like, some of my stories!

BTW ... all the photos in my public media library and used here on my profile are my creations ... photography being another interest of mine.
