Power In Practice

Sometime around 23:00 on 10.06.2009 Flagg passed away. Those of you who listen to PIP know how we felt about him and how devastating his loss is to his family and his pack. There are other places you can go to read about my feelings on this, so I will not repeat myself here.

It is natural that you have questions about how this will impact Power In Practice, so I will take a moment to give out a little information.

• Power In Practice will continue. Before his passing we were working with Flagg on a more interactive format for this podcast so that we could become closer to our fan community. Daddy David and I will reveal the details soon.
• Yes, we will be discussing the effects of Flagg’s passing on our power structures. One of the cores of our pack is the interlocking authority we hold. At the time of his death Flagg had a servant under collar, and how we have been proceeding is I think an important opportunity to discuss this issue.

I am sure you understand the delay in posting this notice and we ask your continued patience as we work through the aftermath.

It’s official, Flagg’s book “The Forked Tongue” is now available for purchase. Here is part of the text from the rear dust jacket.

“This book is not comforting; it does not reassure. It does not teach anything a decent person needs to know. It is a book about BDSM, but it will teach you nothing about tying knots, swinging floggers or spanking. It does not comfort, it does not attempt to reach the vanilla public.

This book addresses control, it addresses change. The recreational uses of humiliation, conditioning, psychological torture, hypnotism and interrogation techniques are explored and laid bare, broken into usable steps and understandable, applicable concepts. It is a workshop of ruin, the tools necessary to cement lasting alteration and unforgettable experiences for those few who truly crave them.” – Flagg, The Forked Tongue

I am really proud of how the whole project worked out. Lot’s of folks helped bunches (I’ll leave specific thanks for Flagg to make at a later date) and while this is the first publication by Power In Practice… it certainly will not be the last.

If you are coming to TES Fest we will have copies there available for signing by the author. If you can’t make it then go ahead and order one online.

Thanks again to everyone!

There are a fair number of folks who follow this blog, and it seems that the material generates some interest.

We changed the template, cleaned up some code and updated how we handle feeds. Please make sure you can still see us in iTunes and Zune Marketplace :)

This is part three of this conversation. Enjoy!
