Gray returns to the podcast after a hiatus to talk about how he's trying to reconnect to the joy of kink. He talks about his writing on medium ( http://medium.com/@graymiller ) and also reads an excerpt from his work-in-progress, "The Dance of Smoke & Ash". Finally you get to hear a live recording of his performance at the Flow Erotic Cabaret at the Austin 2019 ROPECRAFT. Special thanks to Madame Posh for that!

This episode starts with some information about a fundraiser for MetroVancouverKink, ( https://ca.gofundme.com/legal-costs-for-mvk ) but then gets really personal: “Adaptive Rope.” That’s the term Lisa (Tame Lioness) and her partner T call what they do. He is living with cancer, and it has changed how they do rope - but not what it does for them and their relationship. She talks open and raw about how they have survived twenty-eight years, cancer, and still keep it hot.

Gray gives a kind of "State-of-the-Ropecast" update, explaining why August was such a dry month and where and how his travels will help make September the opposite. He also talks about some of the burnout he's feeling with kink, and the ways he's fighting it by embracing the role of kink historian. YOU can win a $40 Gift Card for Twisted Monk!
