So You've got an idea for a peice. Maybe its a character. Maybe its the ending. Maybe it's a specific phrase that you can't get out of your head. But what about the rest of it? Join The TES Writer's group for a discussion on how to take that first thread and make a full, cohesive peice worthy of that seed of inspiration. Optional Assignment Due: The Missing Piece- Write the crescendo of a story- but only the crescendo. No back story, no explanation, only the climax, no context, as if you flipped to that page and pulled it out of a book.

Back in the early '90s, a group on alt.sex.bondage decided to meet offline at a burger joint in Palo Alto, California. The result was the first ""Burgermunch"", later shortened to ""munch"".* Since then, the munch has become a mainstay of alternative sexuality communities, often serving as the entry point for many newcomers. So what does it take to start and run a munch? Join our panel of veteran munch hosts and organizers as we talk about finding friendly venues, dealing with attendees, navigating scene politics, and more! *Source: The Loving Dominant, 3rd Ed, by John and Libby Warren, Greenery Press, 2008

Come out and explore ideas you have and learn from experienced mentors at the September Hypnokink meeting. Have questions or want to work something out? This is a great event if you learned something recently and want help from peers! It’s great to have the opportunity to keep learning, sharing and practicing. Come and play, explore and learn! Please bring a partner to trance with, and/or a willingness to meet someone new. Join us on September 26th for an open evening: all are welcome to practice trance, no matter your experience level.

Writing accents is difficult, especially when you can't hear it out loud. Bring your latest work and get it read- in either a serious and applicable voice, or a very sill one. All forms of writing welcome, but please be consciderate and keep your pieces short- we don't want to overwork our actor. Optional Homework Assignment: Someone is talking to themselves- write what they are saying.

Electro-needles!?! Knife wrestling!?! Fire stomping!?!

It also introduces new risks and novel challenges. In this workshop, we’ll explore how to approach combining different forms of play, mitigate the risks, and learn to make the familiar new again!

He is also a TES Board Member, and Chair of the Socials and DM Committees, and will be serving as Chair of Safety for the third year in a row at TES Fest 2019.
