When at last they had all gone, I had a final check round the house, as I always do. In the waste paper basket by the photocopier I found a couple of copies of - very clear and elegant - ink drawings, made with the machine set slightly too dark. The first showed Yasmin, naked, kneeling doggy fashion, being fucked by a man whose head was only sketched, while Pat, also naked, watched; the second showed Pat and Yasmin in soisante-neuf, while a male figure much less fully drawn fucked or buggered Pat. I have no idea when these pictures were drawn. I have no idea whether they were from life.

Anonymousover 14 years agoIf I were put in his position, I would've just left John in charge and gone somewhere else, but that's just because I have very little patience. And it's good that I'm NOT in his position because I'd still be waiting. Haha.
spoiled_bratscheover 14 years agoand alluring... and disturbing... and most thought-provoking... and, it goes without saying, exquisitely crafted, as your stories always are.
CloudsSipalmost 15 years agoThis is superbly written. Numerous characters for a short story, exquisitely and effectively defined. Convincing plot and setting for extended exploration of taboos and psychosocial dynamics. Satisfying story arc. Beautifully ambiguous hero and a slowly repulsing narrator and a heroine whose depths are revealed in tension - as depths really always are. Room left for the imagination to play, to question and reconsider interpretations and extrapolations. I want to buy the author a glass of excellent wine, something dark and complex which lingers. Thank you for this work.
Anonymousabout 15 years agoAbsolutely amazing! Definitely one of the best I've read, and the writing was superb! It's better than even some published books I've read.. though they may not have had such interesting content.. Although I will agree it was somewhat frustrating, the poor narrator! Oh well, still an amazing story! And where can I find me a workshop like this one??
Safraover 16 years agoIt aroused me, it made me think, it leaves me excited!
Only the narrator's effort in using the knife on Yasmin was a bit too much for me... Are men really that stupid? ;)
Apropos Yasmin, she "mutates" to Jasmin at one point...
Just this evening the difference between the categories NonConsent/Reluctance and BDSM were discussed on the German forum. I stand corrected... I will have to revise my opinion!
MoreRudeThanYoualmost 17 years agoThat was amazingly well written, and I'll agree, frustrating. You'd like to see the author get his at some point, after all. Everyone likes a happy ending right? lol Your attention to detail was perfect, it made it very real. Great job!
Anonymousover 17 years agoThe old Repressed Sub and Perfect Dom turn into something new and fresh in the hands of an author who lets us watch them from a different angle, revealing their yet more ancient true natures in a climactic sex scene.
Smartly introduced in anti-terms, John, the non-descript protagonist endowed with all the elusiveness of a Cheshire Cat, remains a shady figure from id rather than a fully realized character, and quite deliberately so. His female complement, Pat, appears brightly lit by contrast, occupying the spotlight during the intense and highly erotic psychodrama. The rest of the actors, including the sulking first person narrator, spring to life with equal ease, sketched in broad strokes yet deeply familiar.
"Workshop" is a charmingly layered piece in which life and art mimic each other and archetype lurks just beneath the surface of reality. From the opening lines that subtly suggest the story's meta-awareness, through the suspenseful mystery-style build up and satisfying resolution, all the way to the added ending twist, the story never falters, clever but not ostentatiously so, insightful and fun.

Nashaover 17 years ago"Workshop" amuses, arouses, and provokes. And bravo on achieving an extraordinary climax in an ordinary setting without straying too far from the realm of believability.
