The first thing that everyone needs to know is that I hate smoke detectors. I know they probably save 50 billion lives a year, and they’re the best thing to happen to safety in America since seat belts, but I still hate them. Why? It’s simple. They irritate me.The first problem with smoke detectors is that they must be installed on ceilings. If someone would invent a floor-mounted smoke

Happy Thanksgiving and many thanks to YOU, our friends, for making Bethany's Woodshed, SpankingEpics and our many other sites resounding successes these past many years. As we continue on our way, know that we will continuously strive to provide quality erotica that appeals to that little brat inside of you that says, "Put me over your knee and show me that I am loved - and safe."Bethany, Jim,

I'm back in West Virginia, spending a lovely week alone with my two sons. So where's Bethany, you ask?Well, I'm glad you asked! She's been gone the last week and won't be back until after Thanksgiving, filming another full-length movie. This one features two of the most popular girls on the Web (no, I can't tell you who!) in a story about witchcraft, curses, (and of course, lots of agressive,

Renee has been a member of Bethany's for a long time and is one of our best-loved actresses. Of all Bethany's stories, this is her very favorite, and during our last shoot, she talked Bethany into doing a spanklet of it with her and Sam as Marie and John. The spanklet video will be out soon; let us know if they did the story justice. Enjoy.Bethany and JimThe Guessing Gameby Bethany BurkeThe door

I just responded to a comment this morning and saw that the comment counter is still not completely fixed. It shows "no comments" when there are definitely comments there. I republished the blog in its entirety and now it's right. I'll have our tech folks get with Google to see what's wrong.Jim

Wow - I can't believe it's been so long since we posted anything. We are settling down for the winter - me at my new job and Bethany still living at our old house in West Virginia. We really hate living apart, but it's necessary for the time being. Our youngest son, Graeme, wants to finish school with his old friends before moving here to start a new school next fall. So for now, we are stuck

Sometimes discipline doesn’t need to be a spanking; it can be something a simple as standing in the corner, writing lines or even a ‘time-out.” While most of the time Jim believes that spanking is the most effective way to deal with issues between us, we’ve also experimented with non-spanking DD from time to time. This issue of whether DD HAS to be spanking comes up often on DD discussion

We're beginning to settle in to our new life in rural Virginia. I'm firmly ensconced in my new job and we have most of the boxes unpacked, so I thought I'd bring everyone up to date. The wedding went wonderfully. Anne chose a rustic bed and breakfast for the ceremony; the wedding party all stayed there the night before, renewing old friendships and talking the night away. I had forgotten how

Well, today's the day! We have about twenty percent of our stuff unpacked, my new job secured, and we are heading out to Anne's wedding. We had the rehearsal last night at a country bed-and-breakfast in rural Virginia. The groom's parents got lost on the back roads, taking all the food and drinks with them on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Finally a local farmer took pity on them and led them to us,

I just wanted to let everyone know that we haven't forgotten you. The movers came on Saturday and Sunday to pack us up; Monday and Tuesday we traveled to our new house in Virginia and unpacked. We're absolutely beat. (Not that way, you naughty girl!) Today we have spent getting me settled into my new practice and dealing with the million little things (like the fact that when we drain the

Working on this blog has brought back some memories for Jim and me. Although we'd hoped to post quite a bit about our current life, the fact is that like a lot of couples, our lives go through some difficult times. As we prepare to move Jim to our new house next week, plus prepare for my oldest daughter's wedding, often it seem like spanking, fun or otherwise, is very far from our minds. I'm

Another busy week for us, as Jim and I start thinking about our upcoming relocation to another state so Jim can take a new job. Sometimes it feels like we get so busy that we hardly have time to speak to each other, much less think about our relationship. But we had a great break last weekend as we traveled to our video partners' home and studio in New England and did a "spanklet" shoot. For

Well, we’re moving again. We have each moved three times in the last six years, and now Bethany and I are moving one more time, this time hopefully for the last. I am taking over a rural practice in Virginia, near where my two sons, Spencer and Graeme are in school and near Bethany’s old stomping ground. It will be fun; we have found a nice house with some property and a pond for the kids to

Spankings happen for lots of different reasons. When we were first starting out, there had to be a clear “why,” with reasons given and clearly understood. We had discussed in length when spankings were justified and when they were not. Bethany had thought about spanking (as had I) since she was a child and was so mesmerized by the process that she had in her mind even gone so far as to

It’s not always as it seems, this D/d lifestyle. Most people who are just getting into the lifestyle, or maybe just read the stories think when spankings occur, they are always swift or given for something “really” bad! This is true some of the time, but not always. When you are living with someone and living the lifestyle as long as I have with Jim, sometimes there isn’t a straightforward

We are still working on the comment counter, and also having some delays in getting comments published. If the counter says "0 comments," that may not be correct, so be sure to check the comments anyway.

Hello to all our friends - and hopefully a few new readers who have been brought in by the idea that Jim and I are gong to post a lot more of our personal "journey" on this blog.This has been a very busy couple of weeks for me. Between August 1st and today, I have left home five separate times, each to a different location. I have not been home more than three nights straight since August 2nd..

Well, it’s been quite a summer. During the spring, my job at the University got busier and busier as the duties piled up, and the family desperately looked forward to a summer of fun. We put up a dry-erase board in the family room after Spencer got home from boarding school and listed the things we wanted to accomplish this summer. Now the summer is nearly gone and most of those things done,

Good intentions, right?Well, in my case my good intentions did not pave a road to hell… but a road right to the back of a sofa, with me bent over it having my butt spanked.Let me explain.
