Station Identification: Smutty Footnotes


What's This?

You are visiting Smutty Footnotes, a blog that I maintain since August 2010, the successor to an online journal I started back in 2008. This is my little soapbox, which serves several roles. First, it's where I talk about and publish the smut that I write. Second, it's where I point out interesting smut that I've run across in my eternal quest to find the most arousing fiction out there. Third, it's where I wax lyrical about random smut-related tidbits that I encounter both online and offline. Oh, and in case that was not clear: yes, this is very much a smut-focused blog.

I try to post twice a week, once in the middle of the week (Wednesday) and once on the weekend (Sunday), and I tend to post late at night. Most of my posts have a portion I pompously call my Writing Journal, where I comment opaquely on what I'm writing at the moment. Between you and me, it's therapy more than anything else: it gives me a sense that I'm actually getting stuff done.


And Who Are You Anyways?

Glad you asked. I go by the name Bulgroz The Third here and a few other places. I have been writing smut since the late nineties, but did not inflict it on the world until 2008. To be fair, little of what I wrote before then is digestible. My stories tend to involve mind control and distinctive power dynamics between characters.

Yes, I do have a life, and no, it is not all sex all the time. I wish. No, what you get here and in my writing is a projection of my personality onto the smut plane. Not unexpectedly, it yields a singularly distorted view of yours truly, but one that maintains some of my real-life characteristics. Chew on that.


So What Can We Expect For 2013?

Excellent question. My current running serial The Adjusters continues with monthly episodes, published the first of the month when I'm not running late because of this or that.

I have a few ideas for stories on the back burner, chapter stories longer than my short stories, but not as epic as The Adjusters. My hope is that at least one of them will see the light of day in 2013.

I'll keep on pointing you to interesting smut that I encounter here and there. I'll also delve into the past and presenting classics from the last three decades, classics that I have read and loved, going back to the early days of Usenet and alt.sex.stories. There's a lot of amazing stuff out there that you may not know and may find interesting.

Beyond that, anything specific you folks would like to see on this blog in the coming year?

  1. Where is your former journal? Or has it lapsed into oblivion?

    1. Blissful oblivion indeed.

      I probably still have an archive of it somewhere, but it didn't take too long before I moved to Blogger. I repurposed most of the old entries (those that made any sense) into blog posts in the first six months, so you haven't really lost anything. I mostly pointed to stories I ran across.
