Want To Hear Me (And Gini) Talk About Polyamory? I'm At Geeky Kink Event New England!

(NOTE: Based on time elapsed since the posting of this entry, the BS-o-meter calculates this is 14.472% likely to be something that Ferrett now regrets.)

Next weekend, I’ll be attending the Geeky Kink Event in Rhode Island – if you’ll recall, they’re the clash of nerd and kink culture that has the TARDIS bondage box, the ball pit, and the Sensory Deprivation Companion Cube, among many other crazy sexy mashups.  I’m so psyched, as friends have told me this is one of the most awesome cons ever.
I’m pleased to say I’ll be leading several workshops, including:
Burninating the Peasants: Fireplay 101
A hands-on demonstration, showing how to set fire to the ones you love. Much discussion of safety. Much more pretty, pretty flames. Will include demonstrations of fire wands, flash cotton, firecupping, and, if things go drastically wrong, fire extinguishers. (Hint: Things will not go drastically wrong.)
Fucking Lots of People Without Fucking Over Your Partner: How To Open Up a Relationship
Interested in polyamory? How about swinging? How about doing all of that without hurt feelings, messy breakups, or crazy exes bashing down your door? Noted kink writer Ferrett Steinmetz and his adorable wife Gini Judd discuss the many ways in which you can start exploring other relationships without blowing your world into flinders.
Jealousy Is Not a Crime: Troubleshooting Broken Polyamory
If you’re dating multiple people, bumps will occur, sure as death and taxes. The question is, how do you figure out what’s wrong… and how do you repair the faults so that you emerge stronger and saner? Kinktastic writer Ferrett Steinmetz and his wife Gini Judd will lead a discussion about how to fight fairly, how to be respectful to all the people in your poly web, and tout the merits of a solid set of dealbreakers.
Wet With Words: How To Make Your Writing Arousing
Whether it’s composing the hottest of sexts or just porning up your fanfic, there is an art to getting an audience aroused with mere words. Let professional author Ferrett Steinmetz – dubbed a “ninja sexter” by his lovers – discuss the techniques involved in taking your erotic writing to the next level.
Author Reading: Nebula-Nominated Author Ferrett Steinmetz Read Brain Porn
Ferrett Steinmetz reads his story “Rooms Formed of Neurons and Sex,” the erotic tale of a telephone sex operator and her love affair with a brain in a jar. A deadly serious, yet entrancing, tale. Please, no touching yourself during the performance.
If you wanna go (or even have me set you aflame with a reasonable level of safety), hotel rooms and tickets are available until the 9th.  If you’re in the area, I’d totally go; this looks like both the hoot and the holler.

    Would love to see a video or handout from one of these workshops. ??

      If they do it, I’ll link to it, but I don’t have any video equipment aside from a shakycam iPhone myself.
