The Lover's Spat: A Paddle Story

 


“I’m ready for my close-up, Sir,” I whispered to Spencer across the kitchen.

Spencer paused as he returned the lemonade pitcher to the fridge. The fridge door partly obscured his face, but his grin was unmistakable. Then he put on his stern face before closing the door and looking towards me.

I stood at the entry to the kitchen wearing a gray tee shirt and no panties. “As if expecting a whipping!” he said, quoting a favorite line from a spanking novel. He knew full well that I was expecting at least a paddling and maybe a whipping too.

I’d already seen the new paddle prototypes set on the couch in our home library, our favorite spot for spankings. The paddles were an oversized spatula design. We’d found a vintage version in the cookware section of an antique shop and Spencer asked me if I remembered seeing such spatulas in old spanking videos. I didn’t. “I’ll make us one,” he said. “Maybe that will help you remember.” I’d responded with, “Probably not,” blushing and a little flustered that I didn’t recall ever seeing anything like this unusual spatula. He stealthily patted my backside in the store. “We’ll see,” he had said at the time. “Oh, we’ll see.”

Standing half-naked in front of Spencer, the time to see was now. He pointed his finger towards the library and made a little motion sending me in that direction. He followed closely behind.

He had prepared two paddles, one made from bright, stingy Cherry and the other from warm, tingly Raintree. I knew the woods without asking. Closing the door behind him, Spencer advised, “It’s time for your spanking, young lady. A product test is still a good, hard paddling, isn’t it?”

“Yes, Sir,” I said, unable to hide the excitement in my voice. We’d been busy in the weeks leading up to this and my backside was pale, primed, and ready. Nonetheless, I was nervous as well. New implements are always a little scary, aren’t they? Will it hurt? Of course it will. Will I die? Probably not. Will I want more? Almost assuredly.

“Well, bend over then,” he said. “You may use your pillow.”

I grabbed my oversized bolster, pressed my hips to it, and placed my elbows on the couch. I arched, presenting my bottom for product testing punishment. My only crime was marrying a paddle-maker, but I was two decades too late to mend my ways.

“Cherry first,” he said, picking up the thinner, lighter, and stingier of the two paddles.

The swat was quick and the sting was sharp, but faded as quickly as it came. I wiggled a little to get my bearings. He knew my routine and placed his empty hand on my lower back, then lifted the paddle to strike again.

This time, he didn’t stop after one stroke. Left, right, left, right, the swats came quickly but not too hard. I could practically feel the pink rising to my cheeks. After a dozen, he paused to let me catch my breath. He circled the flat surface of the paddle over both cheeks, massaging while teasing more strokes by quickly pulling away, then returning to caress again. I gave a quick nod of my head: more, please.

 The paddling started in full now, back and forth and occasionally right in the middle. The sting was building but I was doing my best good girl act, taking it like a real champ. Then, as if I could feel the pink crossing into red territory, those little ouch sounds started escaping my breath. Smack smack, “Ooohh,” smack smack, “Ouch ouch ouch,” smack, “Owww.”

Spencer paused. “Too much?” he asked, more teasingly than tenderly. He answered himself, “No, you can take some more.”

The paddling resumed, as did my fussing and mumbling “ow-ow-ow” into my cushion. True confession, I love the sounds I make when I’m being spanked and sometimes the sounds of pain turn me on as much as the spanking itself. Although the sting was intense, I knew I could take it for some time. That didn’t prevent me from bemoaning my situation. “It stings, Sir!” I gasped.

“Yes,” he agreed, not missing a beat.

The sting soon felt like a glow and my bottom was fully warmed. He sensed I was ready for the heavier paddle, and he was right. He traded out the Cherry for Raintree and started anew. Naturally, I howled at the first stroke and momentarily stood up. “Sir!” I exclaimed.

He remained silent. I bent back over the bolster and the paddling resumed. The Raintree brought a deeper, more intense sensation than the Cherry. With more strokes, I began to feel it in the muscles of my cheeks, as if the flesh had only just realized it was under attack and was tensing for further assault. There was pain, but also the underlying pleasure of warmed-up skin no longer processing sting. Now, the deeper flesh of the backside began to accept each punishing stroke with gratitude.

The little murmurs of pain I’d been muttering became the sighs of a bottom crossing over into sub-space, welcoming the paddling, no longer wishing for it to end. Spencer paused to assess. When he spoke, his voice was lower, huskier. He, too, had crossed over into a space of deeper experience. “Twelve more,” he said. I nodded. “Count them,” he advised.

The first stroke of twelve arrived on my backside like an explosion of fireworks. There is something about Raintree that feels both bright and dark, like color behind closed eyes. I couldn’t help it; I let out a louder yelp than I’d intended. Then, recovering: “One, thank you, Sir,” I said, quietly and quickly.

The second, third, and fourth strokes continued at the same intensity and rhythm. I counted each aloud. The fifth was fiercer than expected; I stood up then bent back down, and tears finally sprung to the ready. The sixth stroke coaxed the tears from my closed eyes. I kept counting.

He lightened up just a little for strokes seven through nine, sensing I was reaching the zenith of what I could handle for sensation that day. My breath had started to tremble; the tears were flowing freely now. The tenth stroke came harder, but I took it well. “Final two,” he told me.

The strokes were hard and intense, but much like the finale of a fireworks show, the bright colorful explosions on my bottom were spectacular. After stroke number twelve, I let my weight fall onto the bolster, crying from the release.

Spencer sat next to me and took me into his arms. “You did so well,” he said, kissing my face and stroking my hair. “That’s my good girl.”

I pressed into him. “Thank you, Sir,” I said. “For my spanking, I mean.” Then, already shifting back into myself. “Those are so good. You did so good.”

“So did you,” he grinned. “I love this Raintree,” he said, looking down at the paddle he’d just placed next to the Cherry on the couch.

“But the Cherry, too,” I answered, nodding. “I might have been happy taking just the Cherry.” I reached over to stroke it.

He picked the Raintree back up admiringly and laughed. “Raintree,” he said again. “Don’t make me fight you over it!”

I laughed with him then picked up the Cherry and held it pointing in his direction like a sword. “A lover’s spatula?”

He nodded. “A Lover’s Spat. I may have secretly already named it that.”

“Me too,” I confessed. We put our paddles back down and he picked up his phone, flipping immediately to the camera. “Back over that bolster, young lady! I believe you said you were ready for your close-up.”

“Well, now I am,” I answered, rubbing my bright pink backside. I took my place over the bolster once again.

Abby’s Updates

Yay! I get to share my bum with you again. So much has happened in the last half year. I wish I’d been blogging about it the whole time, but instead let’s do a quick summary so we can all move on and talk about spanking and spanking related things. 

FIRST SPANKING PARTY - Spencer and I went to our first local spanking party in June! This deserves its own post, so let’s see if I can manage to write about it soon.

HOUSE FINALLY REPAIRED - We had a house flood in July of 2022, and it took over 9 months for the repairs to be completed. During that time, we had limited access to the LRS workshop, our books, and even space for spanking. It felt like life was on pause during that time. 

RE-OPENED LITTLE RED SPANKING - Once we got the space in our house back, Spencer was able to go back to making paddles full time. We’re back in action and coming out swinging!

OPENED LRS BOOKS - You’re going to see a lot more about this! We opened another Etsy shop, this one for vintage erotica specializing in spanking and flagellation works from the 1800’s to the 1990’s. The shop is small right now but I have a closet of books to add. Check it out here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/LRSBooks. 

CLOSED TWO VANILLA COMPANIES - From 2016 to the beginning of 2023, I worked at a mortgage broker. Mortgages took a terrible dive in the US in 2022 and after a series of layoffs, we officially closed in January 2023. The owner kept five of us and started a solar company. As of last week, that company did  not survive either. I’m looking for new vanilla work! 

So that’s the quick rundown. My plan is that while I am looking for new work, I will also be spending more time in the spanking universe. I officially have more time to tell the world about our paddles and books and hopefully share pictures of my spanked bottom, as that remains one of my favorite things to do on the internet. Here we go again!

Tarot Tarts #1: Serpieri Tarot


All artwork pictured in this post is from The Serpieri Tarot, copyright Lo Scarabeo

Happy New Year! December was a far more challenging month than anticipated. I meant to start blogging here again and I just wasn’t able to make it happen.

I’m excited to be starting the new year with a post featuring some of my favorite cards from my new Serpieri Tarot deck, published by Lo Scarabeo earlier this year. I have a growing collection of tarot and divination decks, some for personal use and some for the art. A small but growing number of these fall into the erotic category, and my Serpieri deck is no exception. 

This deck features artwork by and inspired by Paolo Eleuteri Serpieri, a graphic artist whose work often prominently displays the female bottom in glorious rounded and muscled form. I have long been a fan of his work and his erotic science fiction graphic novel series featuring the beloved buxom heroine Druuna, who appears throughout the deck as well. 

In my exploration of the deck, I found that many of the cards are in keeping with the Rider-Waite imagery that is most commonly used throughout the tarot world. Decks built from a pre-existing source often include artwork that is not in keeping with traditional imagery or card meaning, so when I found that the images and card meanings were in alignment, I realized that the artwork had been designed specifically for the deck. This is supported in the small manual included with the deck, in which Italian tarot deck publisher Lo Scarabeo explains, “In our interpretation, we took a step away from the original lore of the comics, and imbued the artwork with their own, standalone meanings - ones that fit with the Tarot cards they represent.” 

Here are some of my favorite cards from this deck. Picking my favorites was fun and sexy, so I’ll aim to do this with my other erotic decks as well!

Shopping Tip: The tarot world is experiencing a huge increase in forgeries and fakes. Only purchase decks from reputable sources. This deck is available from Llewellyn.com. (I am in no way affiliated, I just love collecting tarot decks and Llewellyn has been a great source for decks and books for as long as I can remember.)

Paddle Portraits


We had our house flood this summer due to a broken pipe. We are still waiting for some of the repairs to be completed on the areas of the house that were damaged, which means that part of the wood shop has had to become storage space for the time being.

We shut the shop down for a few weeks in order to deal with the damage. Then, due to the limited space, Spencer re-opened our paddle shop with a shift in our business model, from craft on demand to a more retail approach, where what you see in our online store is what you will receive. This has allowed Spencer a chance to explore new woods and new designs. Plus, having pieces ready to ship has also allowed more time for custom and special orders.

Being able to re-open the shop while waiting for this house madness to end has probably kept us both sane. 

But now that we are listing individual paddles, I’ve had to step up my photography game. Every listing needs its own pictures showing the paddle in all its unique detail. I tried a standard white backdrop, followed by black, but neither showed off the wood the way I wanted.

I wondered if I could build little sets inside the lightbox that would feature the paddle but also provide texture and color. Fortunately, Spencer was happy to let me give it a try, and so when we  re-opened the shop earlier this fall, we did so with a Fall Collection, with pictures featuring autumnal colors and in some cases, a Halloween theme.

I had a ridiculous amount of fun; it was like the paddles were models at a photoshoot. But one thing I learned with the Fall Collection was that trying to change the set for each individual piece takes forever, so I’ve had to edit myself a bit. 

You’ll see what I mean below. Here are some of the photos I took last weekend for holiday listings and below are some of my favorite Fall Collection photos. And just in case anyone here is a concerned occultist, that’s not a real ouija board, that’s a Halloween placemat I found at Marshall’s!

Begin With the (Rear) End in Mind

That time I got suspended from Twitter for being naughty, or maybe just too fabulous.


TLDR: I deleted my booty pics off Twitter and decided to start blogging again, because I love butts and I love the people who love butts. 

"Begin with the end in mind." At my place of work, it's a philosophy we've adopted after years of playing it by ear and flying by the seats of our pants. It stands for planning, making the right decisions to reach the goal, and always keeping the endgame in mind. 

Today, as the end of Twitter looms loud and clear, I realized I need to begin again in the social media world. But why? What is my goal, my endgame? Why have I tried to be a presence in the online spanking world for over fifteen years? Why do I still want to be a part of anything online, when the Internet is now as much a source of destruction as it is a place of creation? 

So much has changed over these last 15 years. But these things, dear to my heart, remain:

1) Butts. Bums. Tushes. Asses. Arses. Rear ends. Bottoms. Booties. Buttocks. 

2) Spanking butts (and their synonyms). 

3) Self-discovery - I don't just seek to help myself understand myself, but I also want to help others discover themselves, to encourage the world to embrace their own desires, kinks, and, cravings - especially when it comes to butts, and spanking butts. (Please note, I always mean adult consenting butts.)

When I first decided to join the "spank-o-verse," my choices were Blogger, Twitter, and Tumblr. Now there are too many choices, so it made the most sense to follow the advice of Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music: "Let's start at the very beginning. It's a very good place to start." I began my life in the spank-o-verse with this blog, and so, to this blog I return. Let's start at the very beginning - and let's begin with the end in mind - the rear end, that is!

To be honest, I wasn't  prolific on Twitter. Every now and again I liked to post pictures of my bottom, or retweet fellow spankos, or show off Spencer's latest paddle creations for his Etsy shop. Even still, now that the app is imploding and will likely either be terminated or overrun by cartoon villains, I decided it wasn't the best or safest place for pictures of my butt. 

This morning, I scrolled through my profile and both saved and deleted all the pictures of me. But they can't just not be on the Internet, amirite? So, without further ado about Twitter, here are some of my faves.

Alive and Well and Paddling!

Hello spankos! Once again it's been awhile. Last you heard from me back in March, Mr. W and I had recently launched Little Red Spanking, our adult spanking paddle shop on Etsy. I wish I'd chronicled the growth of LRS from then to now with blog posts and pics - I have some catching up to do! 

I am incredibly proud of Mr. W and the paddles he crafts. He puts his heart and soul into each piece and I know that is the number one reason the shop is thriving. I want to show off everything he makes! I hope it's okay that I start doing a little bit more of that here.

I must also say - we are so grateful to our fellow spankos in this community! Without this shared passion, a spanking paddle shop would not be possible. We love bringing you the quality and craftsmanship we know you want and deserve - the same we would want from a spanking toy company. This is who we are.








All paddles are handcrafted by Mr. W, aka Spencer Williams, from domestic and exotic hardwoods, finished with body safe and all natural mineral oil and beeswax, and shipped discreetly. See more at Little Red Spanking on Etsy.
