In the time I’ve been running this blog, I’ve received a number of emails from readers. Some have been supportive, and some have offered constructive criticism. Lately I’ve been getting a lot of emails concerning my choice of topics. I thought I’d share some of those emails here so you have an idea of what I get in my inbox every day.

“Hi, Hunter. I’ve been reading your blog for a while, and it’s pretty nice. However, ‘nice’ doesn’t really do it for me. While I like reading about things like achieving your goals and having a positive attitude, what I’d really like to read about is hardcore S&M. If you could write more about that topic, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!”

“Dude this blog is way too G-rated. If I wanted all this goody two-shoes crap I’d go to Disneyland. Get with the times man! When I go online, I want something that will shock and titillate. If you don’t start adding some whips, chains, handcuffs, and leather, I’m outta here!”

While some people have said they liked my blog the way it was, the emails I’ve gotten lately have overwhelmingly been like the ones above. I want to pay attention to my readers’ needs, so effective immediately, this blog will be focused on sadomasochism.

I realize this will be an adjustment for some people, but change is what the Web 2.0 world is all about. I’m renaming the blog “Whips & Chains,” and using the tagline “Makin’ it hurt so good since 2006.” I have a temporary banner for now, but I’ll be getting one professionally made soon.

This blog is for the benefit of my readers, and I thank you for the opportunity to deliver what you’re looking for. Of course, you do realize what day this is, right?
