A ten year anniversary seems like the perfect moment to a cast an eye to the future. What should I do with this site for the next decade? What exciting developments will be heading your way? Sadly, I have absolutely no idea.
Most blogs seem to peter out when their creators feel they’ve nothing new to say. The mixture of posts I use tends to reduce the risk of that. Occasionally personal posts are greatly outnumbered by those focusing on hot images, site links, funny articles, mainstream kinky coverage, etc. If I’d stuck to purely personal material I think I’d have been lucky to make it to year one, let alone year ten.
Given that flexibility of format and the vastness of the kinky world, I’m unlikely to run out of material. That makes my free time and interest level the primary limiting factors. The future of those two is hard to predict. I’m hoping that in the next few years I can retire early and create space for personal projects and travel. Maybe that’ll free up more time for kinky adventures and provide much blogging inspiration. Alternatively, maybe new projects will suck up my time and force me to make some hard choices about where I spend it. Hopefully, I’ll be able to find a good balance.
In the meantime, barring technical disasters or unexpected life events, I’ve no plans to change what I’m doing here. However, if reader’s have any great suggestions or things they’d like to see, then feel free to let me know via a comment. I make no promises to adopt anything suggested, but I’m always open to new ideas or possible improvements.
I’ll leave you with a vision of the future from the movie Starcrash. This is Stellar Star – the best astro-pilot in the whole universe – as played by Caroline Munro. She’s the one on the right, sporting the standard pilot outfit of the future.

Thank you for this blog. i have been reading since 2012. You have provided helpful and interesting information, exciting visuals, and led me to play with stellar Mistresses i otherwise would not have met, including, among others, Domina Yuki and Mistress Lucy Khan. Very grateful. 1.5
I don’t know who my longest readers is, but 8 years has got to be getting up there :-). Thanks for sticking with me all that time. Glad you’ve enjoyed meeting Domina Yuki and Mistress Lucy Khan. They’re both fabulous dommes and I always try and see them whenever we’re in the same bit of the world.

Not really a suggestion on content, but I wish you tweeted when you wrote a new post, because then I could subscribe to new posts! (Yes I am that annoying person who doesn’t use email) and could retweet them easily too
I really need to do better on that. My twitter game is weak.
I have this weird hang-up, where it feels like I’m being too pushy by retweeting a post after I’ve already published it. Like I’m nagging or prodding people with a ‘Hey pay attention to me!’ thing. I realize that makes no logical sense, but its how my brain works.
