SD is Steven S. Davis. My principal email addresses is sd@magenta.com but in the past I've used: ssdavis@ot.com, sdupland@delphi.com, sd@hedonism.com, and steven.davis@dscmail.com My homepage is at: http://links.magenta.com/lmnop/users/sd/sd.html I'm a lifelong hardwired sadist who in recent years has become a practicing BDSMer (BDSM = Bondage & Discipline and Dominance & Submission and Sadomasochism), during which I discovered a submissive side (which only complemented, it did not replace, my sadistic side). I had been an author of sicfic for sickphuxes for some time before becoming a practicing BDSMer. Most of my work appeared in alt.sex.bondage, with some stories also appearing in alt.sex.femdom, alt.sex.stories, alt.sex.stories.bondage, and alt.torture. There days my home newsgroup is soc.subculture.bondage-bdsm, where the great bulk of my articles are nonfiction. I post new fiction to SSB (though I haven't been producing much new fiction lately), and occasionally repost my stories to alt.sex.stories.bondage and alt.sex.bondage. My stories are BDSM stories, or stories of crime and violence with a sexual element, or stories of erotic horror. Mostly they involve female victims, but there are some femdom stories as well. The overwhelming majority of my stories involve either nonconsent or questionale consent. Nonconsensuality is a common element in BDSM fantasy and fiction. It is, however, very uncommon and even less welcome in BDSM practice. Few of my works involve "snuff", but many go up to the point of killing. Some of my works do not feature violence, within a BDSmer's definition of violence. Some are violent by any definition. People who want to avoid violence or nonconsent should check my stories list (the file is named stories.lst) and avoid those stories labled NC (nonconsent) or EC (extreme cruelty). I hope that people enjoy my work, but I know, and potential readers should know, that sicfic like mine is written for and enjoyed by a very specialized niche. The audience for it isn't very large. Many people within that audience have found my work enjoyable. Other people will not find it so. Take the warnings on my stories seriously, please. People interested in BDSM practice as well as BDSM fiction might wish to check out SSB.
