Once again, I can identify so closely with your story! I did some nude modeling several years ago, and I remember having many of the same feelings as you experienced. Great job!
Will there be a continuation of this story?
Either way, I look forward to reading more of your adventures.
I'm in love! your writing is beautiful! and you must be lovely! :)

Life Drawing Club embarassment
Hi "Beth"
I enjoy your well written True stories.
I tripped over "Ft. Lauderdale" the other day, and due to its' length needed to return to complete my read. I related so much with your professional travel experiences and very similar lifestyle including running, except I am a male.
Today, intending to complete my reading, "Art Model" intrigued me. I returned to University for 6 years when I was in my 50's to complete a couple of more degrees. In one class, Basic Studio drawing, we had nude models several times. I enjoyed the free flow drawing the human form.
I began attending a Life Drawing Club in the Fine Arts department on Thursdays for two hours. Any student on campus was welcomed to attend, but it was loosely organized by students and they were hurting for money to hire the professional models.
Based upon my business entrepreneur career, I volunteered to run the Life Drawing club, which I did for four years. Our LD Club financial health improved because we began hiring "students" through our annual ART display of finished nude model drawings in SUB main concourse. Attendance expanded greatly concurrently as our drop-in fee increased.
That's the back story: One day, our model did not turn up. I canvassed other members of our LD club, but nobody volunteered. Sooooo, I stripped down and posed for the group - and of course, that was the only day, my early 20 years old son who was completing his Masters attended to hone his drawing skills. Whoops...
As a middle aged father, with liberal worldly outlook on life, I was deflated and embarassed to have my flesh and blood son, sitting in the group drawing my nude body for two hours.
He presented me with a couple of his drawings as we left the building together. To this day years later, we share a mutual laugh of my embarassing experience.

Very Good
Your story is very good. I enjoyed reading it. Your stories built up and this is the second story I have read
Great intro
Nice job of setting the table, I can tell this is going to be good.
More
I would love to hear more
Intelligent
I enjoy your intelligent views on nudity and sex. Unfortunately, I notice you haven't submitted in a while. May I suggest you do so?
What a lovely gentle story
I really liked this one as a lack of the erotic this time demonstrated your true skill. Thank you.
I wish this had turned into an orgy
5 out of 5 stars and great writing but still.... this could have.turned into a epic tale of group sex, I am sad that it did not.
