Thanks for the compliment on my story, afinch. I am a paddle enthusiast, so to speak, and have long been fascinated by these paddles. BTW, Katz's friend who sent that photo is correct. You can still see these paddles at certain gift shops. Even Stuckey's, who I think we all remember for their displays of them, still sold them at a store I visited along the highway several years ago. You have to love these little paddles for being one of the places our spanko interests intersect with the non-spanko interests.

I also loved the second story.  Haven't seen PM to tell him, but left a message.

Thanks for the shout out and for the kind words from PaddleMe.

It was a fun story to work on and the story in a story concept screamed collaboration.

As far as the availability of the paddles in today's times, yes they are.  A fellow author recently was on a trip in the SW United States and stumbled upon this in a souvenir shop:



He sent me the picture.  I actually used it for a BOTD.

Thank you for the positive comments. This story is really Katz's idea and I had the opportunity to work with a good spanko friend. I have been absorbing (rather like a sponge--to steal from Seinfeld, does that make me "sponge worthy?") his, Adric's and St. George's skills in collaborations with each of them. I am a lucky (but oh-so naughty!) boy.

The novelty/souvenir paddle challenge was inspired by Adric's interactive story but it hit me on one of my long-time obsessions. I grew up--and still do--gravitating to those jocular paddles sold at places like Stukeys. By the way, last I knew, you can still occasionally see them for sale. My personal opinion is that they are theoretically meant as gag gifts but they are really there for help frustrated parents on their family vacations with naughty kids.

Anyone who feels inspired, please join us in the challenge at MMSA

I loved it too.  Even more than their first story together, which I also loved.

Here's a really terrific 100% believable and seamlessly collaborative WHASS story by Paddle Me and David M. Katz:

Novelty and Souvenir Paddles -
The Board of Education

This is a great multi-generational story to bring back memories (for those of us old enough to have them) of what used to be and probably sometimes still is.  Lots of realistic touches that help to make the story completely credible.
