Description You’ve seen me naked.

You can say you haven’t, but you are probably lying. The night Jay Leno mentioned me in his monologue the server crashed three times. If you weren’t among the thousands of voyeurs who logged on, you tried later after your household was dark and quiet − long after your kids and spouse were asleep. Hell, they’ve probably seen me naked too.

Most people know about the strawberry birthmark on my inner thigh and the appendectomy scar on my stomach. Of course everyone knows about the tattoo: the falling blue jay with the broken wing that adorns the bicep of my left arm. Much has been made of that small tattoo. It’s been dissected to death in chat rooms and on blogs the length and breadth of cyberspace. Aficionados will tell you the bird isn’t there in my debut flick, and that I cannot possibly be the same man you see in later videos.

They are correct.

The tattoo was Lydia’s idea; “stage dressing” she called it. It was inked on with a much-hated needle before they shot RentBoy; if you look closely, the inflammation is still apparent on camera.

I am also not the same man. I’ve been changed in intimate ways. Unspeakable ways. I’m quite sure I will never be the same again.

Still insisting you haven’t peeked? Not even once? I will pretend to believe you. After all, you could have learned the sordid details in less-disturbing ways. There was the in-depth segment on Nightline, and the unauthorized bio in Maxim. Rolling Stone magazine ran an exclusive interview, but the questions were submitted by email and ghost-answered by Marcus. I was as surprised by my “traditional upbringing” as you were. The Wall Street Journal revealed a few titillating facts in a business profile. (Let it never be said those editors don’t know how to sell papers.) Even the Conservative Christian Right pulled back the covers a time or two while blasting me for corrupting American family values.

Everyone knows how to find me twenty-four hours a day, including Christmas. But no one knows where I am, or who I am. Gay men want to blow me. Straight men want to be me. Lonely women want to hold me. Strong women want to save me. Everyone wants a piece.

Lydia and Marcus own me.

I am the hottest thing on the Internet, and I will live forever. Or at least for as long as Marcus maintains the feed. In reality – which is the world I inhabit – I am a prisoner. I exist only for as long as I can hold your interest. For you, I am bound, gagged, tortured and pleasured. For you, I bind, gag, torture and pleasure others − and do it with apparent ease, with apparent willingness.

I have to. The day you stop watching, they will kill me.

You may get to see that too.

I am an international obsession, a catch phrase, and an icon. I am jon.com. And you are my lifeline.

Thanks. Actually, the idea came to me in a dream. There are three scenes in the novel that were written pretty much the way I saw them in my sleep. (Crazy brain waves.)

This has to go further. It stands well as a wee story in its own right, but it has a lot of potential to continue.

Good luck.

Thank you. Actually, I have completed the entire novel. Read on! I hope you'll find the potential you commented on here. Visit the website too if you'd like: jonsmythe.com. I plan to sell the printed novel there soon -- and I think you'll like the game-like atmosphere. Spooky!

Thanks, Di! I am so beside myself this morning. I had no idea. (I will never catch up on all the comments!) BTW, I have recommended you as a DD in the past, but I fear our lovely Fire Wolves appeal to select sophisticated tastes. Hmm, I need to start your new novel. Maybe THAT one will do the trick.

Mithgariel In reply to denlm [2009-03-01 16:51:31 +0000 UTC]

Ha. At least YOU are sophisticated enough. But seriously, I'm happy for you. Not as if I thought DD was some big prize - it isn't, but it can boost views and that's what lit on DA needs.

And yes, you need to read BC. You'll love it, I'm pretty sure. And it's so sad to have like only a couple of readers. I don't know what to do to become more popular I don't write to drawer. I did that when I was a teenager, and even then I wanted someone to read and like it. And not just like, but discuss it with me. The kind of comments I desire most would be something like "you wrote that scene exceptionally well" or smth in the lines, not just "that char is cool".

Yeah. I have PMS. I rant.

denlm In reply to Mithgariel [2009-03-01 16:59:00 +0000 UTC]

I agree. Lit on dA does not get the exposure it deserves. The new GMs though appear to be trying, which is a good thing. Check out fllnthbnk. He's the one who put me in for a DD. Sparrowsong is an energetic Gm too. So far, so good, with both of them. When my play is finished, I'm going to dig into BC. We'll get you some more readers SOMEHOW!

Mithgariel In reply to denlm [2009-03-01 18:32:51 +0000 UTC]

I've tried some other sites besides DA, but they're a way too strange and I kinda like to get feedback. If I wrote solely to myself, I wouldn't bother to put it up or fight hard for future publishing, now, would I?

Another thing I hope DA will one day do for the lit community is to change the deviation adding system a bit, by adding some fidgets like Next Chapter, Previous Chapter, New Page... Stuff like that.

*snuggles up to you*

denlm In reply to Mithgariel [2009-03-02 16:56:17 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I love the fidgets idea. You should suggest that to one of the GMs.
