Non-fictional sharing of my story and other thoughts.
Finding Your Authentic Self, In Life’s Sensual Journey Story Notes: This one is intentionally meant to follow my last post of a trilogy of quotes. Yes, it’s another thought piece. But part of being your erotic self is living your erotic self, and being true to yourself, your authentic self. Both my own journey and personal conversations with others have inspired me to write this. Bear with me through the next few sentences. They’re just…
Actually, A Trilogy of Quotes Story Notes I usually focus on just one quote the few times I’ve done these, but I’m going for a trilogy today. These quotes all tie in to my next written piece. Please enjoy. Let’s start with part of a poem by W.H. Auden: Life is short, so enjoy Whatever contact your flesh May at the moment crave: There’s no sex life in the grave. – W.H. Auden…
A Private Tale Today’s story will never be published. It’s private and life-changing, but eventually good. (Nothing dark here. Yes, it’s serious to the soul, but nothing worrisome or negative at all.) I started writing it a lifetime ago- but physically, “on paper”? Four years ago. There were three segments to this story then, surrounding milestones within my soul. The fourth and final segment is complete, now woven with the other three, cleaned up,…
Of Ladies and Honorifics Once, to keep my profile fresh, I had dared ask three lady writer friends for a descriptive quote. One of these (from the late Lucy Ludlow, RIP) was, “Gentleman Pervert, pervert used only in the best sense of the word.” This was a badge of honor from such a gifted writer and such a dirty, nasty sweetheart, the closest of friends. Now some people think that a Gentleman role…
I’m living my best life. Yes, even within Real Life. Commitments. Obligations. Family. I’m definitely an adherent of Real Life. Spare time, money, energy are all finite. Limited. But yes, I’m living my best life, optimizing wherever I can. Feverishly. Passionately. My mind calls, my soul beckons. My body demands. Come join me.

(A Perspective – Part 2) Since I’m still on a necessity-based writing break (but nothing bad!), I’ve touched up another “Perspective” piece I wrote last year for a different purpose… and, in the “PS” section below I’ve added an additional article link I hope you’ll enjoy. Over on Medium.com, Anna and Daniel, The Flourishing Hedonists (I quoted them in my last piece) have published another item that has inspired me with its perspective on the…
But It Can Take You a Long Way! (A Perspective – Part 1) Since I’m on a necessity-based writing break (but nothing bad!), I’ve touched up a “Perspective” piece that I wrote last year for a different purpose. I hope you’ll like the premise. I do! I really enjoy reading Anna and Daniel, The Flourishing Hedonists, on Medium.com. I love their attitudes towards life and sex, and although I will quote some specific passages below, I…
Never Lose Your Sense of Wonder, Your Innocence Among many complimentary and complex feelings and sentiments, sex is supposed to (also) be fun. For me, so is writing, especially writing about sex and the sensual- fantasy, fantasy based on nuggets of truth, actual truth disguised as fantasy- and yes, even the whimsical. This means that sometimes I let the whimsical part of my brain loose, as in this story, this story, and this story, plus some other…
“I am a collector. An impressive and respected collector. I collect situations. Let me guide you. The moment that’s always the same… I’ll make it unforgettable for you.” ⁃ Mario to Emmanuelle (Emmanuelle, film, 1974) My nickname, my non de plume, my handle, is FiftyWrites™, but you also know me as Fifty. I am a writer of erotica, and an adventurer of the exquisite. I collect experiences, and am always in…
Let’s first talk papayas. In many countries of the world, the papaya fruit is (especially when sliced in half for serving) symbolic of the human female anatomy. In many Spanish-speaking countries, the spoken term papaya is definitely slang for… let’s just say it- a woman’s pussy. In one or two of these countries, they don’t even call this fruit the papaya in mixed company, and instead refer to it as the fruta bomba.…
In Our Own Way The mystery of sexual attraction is in being wonderfully accepting of and interested in different body types, different ages, different origins, different levels of what society might or might not define as beauty. People seek variety, new experiences. People are attracted to people. People of different types bond over interests, stories, a laugh, curiosity, shared travel experiences, love for a video game or a hobby, something nerdy, anything, even just…
It’s So Much Fun to Hold It in My Hands… and the Book, Too. So there was going to be a fundraiser for a cause in which my writing would be relevant, and I figured I would put together a “Best of” paperback of 99% of the content from this site. I would self-publish it, and donate a bunch of copies (only printing and shipping costs for me) to the charity event to…
These Are No “No-Tell Motels”, but They Still Won’t Tell The otherwise-reserved people of Vienna are very sexually liberal in their desires and practices. Case in point… Their version of love hotels, and these are no American no-tell motels. As a friend once said, “when Austrians go out, the question is generally not if there will be sex, but where the sex will be.” In concept they’re like the ones you hear about in…
Part 3 “You live like this, sheltered, in a delicate world, and you believe you are living. Then you read a book… or you take a trip… and you discover that you are not living, that you are hibernating. The symptoms of hibernating are easily detectable: first, restlessness. The second symptom (when hibernating becomes dangerous and might degenerate into death): absence of pleasure. That is all. It appears like an innocuous illness. Monotony,…
“It’ll be an adventure, just like that hike we took along those seaside cliffs to visit those castle ruins.” “That was a hike. This is a gathering. How do we compare the two?” “It’s not literal. The ruins were an adventurous goal, that had to be achieved through excitement, motivation, effort, and a desired goal at the end of a challenging path. We let down our guard, we took the risk. It was fun,…

It’s a Non-Fiction Day I don’t receive many open comments on my stories. I guess not all readers wish to be visible. But I do receive private feedback via my Contact Me page. (The below was edited in Sept 2024.) With only thirty-ish stories published here, I still have so many in the Vault! The ones in the Vault range from thoughts, to written outlines, to completed stories that I’m obsessing over first.…
It takes courage to push yourself to places that you have never been before…to test your limits…to break through barriers. And the day came when the risk it took to remain tight inside the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. – Anaïs Nin
In a rare excursion from everything else on this site, these are not my words… but today, a quote. “I am a collector. An impressive and respected collector. I collect situations. Let me guide you. The moment that’s always the same… I’ll make it unforgettable for you.” ⁃ Mario to Emmanuelle (Emmanuelle, film, 1974)
I’ve liked most every different position I’ve ever experienced… and are there many more left to try? You tell me! But seriously, for me there’s nothing better than the feel of ankles entwined behind my back (or placed on my shoulders, or even held uncontrollably in mid-air) as I thrust my hips between two sexy, beautiful thighs. I love the feel of splitting a women’s thighs with my body, trying to embed my entire self…
“Being uninhibited, yet responsible, is sexy”. – Me ** For those of you who haven’t answered this question along the way… What would you do if you were sexually free and unencumbered relationship-wise (via hall pass, mutual agreement, or single status) in a room of similarly available people? No, really, what would you do? No inhibitions. Guilt-free. No consequences. Do you have a list in mind? Things you’ve wanted to do but haven’t done? Things…
Why Mom Bods (and Dad Bods) Rule I’m over 50, and I’m not a male fashion model. I’m in Dad Bod territory. But I look fine, young for my age, and I’m within 8 or so lbs of my ideal 162 lb weight. I’m working on getting back to ideal, because I was away five of the last six weeks, and hey, the food was good. You only live once, ya know. I don’t…
To me, sexual attractiveness is 70% or more mental. Confidence is sexy, but that doesn’t mean that you have to be invulnerable. Smiles are sexy, much better than duck pouts. Being uninhibited, yet responsible, is sexy. A sense of humor is sexy. Having an interest that you’re passionate about is sexy. I’ve found extreme sexiness in curvy and thin women, of all backgrounds, in ages from 20’s through 60+ and beyond. It’s all about…
