Hot Bauds

INTRODUCTION

They’re back! Those steamy studs of cyberspace are at it again, getting off to the sound of one hand clicking out hot words on the computer keyboard. You’ll find a few names familiar from the first Hot Bauds collection, as well as lots of hot new talent that’ll keep you hard and hungry for more. Maybe this is your introduction to the on-line world of gay fantasy. Maybe you’ve heard about it, but don’t know a baud from a badger. In that case, these pages should give you a good feel for what’s out there in phosphor land, from the big commercial services to the small local gay BBSs and all the way to the newsgroups like alt.sex.bondage. Just remember that the rules are different here. Some of these guys write on-line, just letting those creative juices flow, so to speak, making liberal use of capital letters, Gs for grins and exclamation marks to get the idea across, since there is no way to show italics or underlining in on-screen text. Others compose offline, giving themselves more time and space to develop the narrative, which they upload later. And then there’s spelling. I’ve left spelling variants (U.S., British, etc.) as they were, to let the flavor come through, as well as the usual short forms that reflect speech.

If you read the first book, you’ll know I like to mix the stories all up together in one steamy mass. In Hot Bauds 2, heavy kink is followed by a tender scene between lovers; a British fetish story about cigars and SM precedes a gentle tale of a medieval knight and his young squire. This time I’ve included the Internet addresses of the writers who agree, so you can let them know your reactions!

Several writers were so enthused about this project that they E-mailed me reams of stories, each hotter than the last, which made my job very hard indeed . Other goodies I know you would have loved I had to leave on the boards, unable to contact the writers for permission to print them. So here they are, gathered from sites in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and Australia.
