Intense...

So, I am back in SF and already back to work editing the porn! As I have quite a bit of travel coming up (London next week, LA the week after, then Portland for KinkFest) I need to make sure the sites have all of their videos ready to go. Thankfully I am 2-3 weeks ahead on both sites so there really isn't a need to stress but it always helps to be at least a month ahead. When I ran the 3 sites at CNE I always had 2 out of the 3 sites 8 weeks ahead in edited/encoded updates. That was how I was able to manage the load of 3 sites.

Anyway, so today I decided to start working on the Gia Paloma video for Chanta's Bitches and intense does not do this video justice. I am only able to edit like 3 minutes at a time. The bond between us was like nothing I had ever experienced in any of my play. I pushed her to places she has never been but she also did the same for me. At the end of it I was both physically and emotionally exhausted and now, watching the video, it is having the same effect on me. It is hard for me to edit and I can tell this one is going to take some time which actually kind of sucks because generally I am a very fast editor.

Better get back to it....

New Site Launch!!!

Yes, yes, it's up! Yes, you can join with your Visa Card, mastercard or by mail. Yes, this is some of the best boy/girl MaleDom BDSM and bondage sex porn available on the internet...so check it out!

take care,

Searching for the Twisted Factory!

Yes, it may seem too soon but today Tony and I start looking for what I will call the Twisted Factory!!! We are trying to find a space to rent so that I can have a studio, build sets, etc and first on the list is a super cool building that is 10,000 sq ft andclose to a Bart station (this is important for models) and has plenty of off street parking. Of course, I shouldn't get my hopes up. The place could be noisy, or have any number of other problems but I can't help it! The thought of a Twisted Factory is very, very exciting!

Can't think of a cool title for this entry....sorry!

Just letting everyone know I am still alive. I am back in San Francisco after another hectic LA trip, 10 shoots in 5 days at 2 different locations....yes, I need a massage and instead of saying it everytime I come back from one of these trips I should actually do it LOL!!!

Tomorrow is hubby's and my 3 year wedding anniversary. We've been together almost 5 years, and married for 3...according to us anyhow...seeing as we had to get married again in 2005 to keep the paperwork people happy!!! I never thought I could love someone for more than a couple of years. I've always seen myself as shallow like that but I guess I was wrong because I hope for nothing more than to speand the rest of my life with this man.

We're going to San Diego this weekend for a mini-break. Going to do lots of tacky tourist things like feeding batrays, having breakfast with Shamu and we may evern slip a zoo emplyee a few $$$ to let me play with an armadillo...my favorite animals in the entire world...after my native australian ones of course.

Trying to get a lot of editing done because I have a lot of travel coming up and it's best to have the sites a few weeks ahead at least. Just finished working on the Sandra Romain/Ava Devine update for ChantasBitches and let me just say, I have never, ever seen sex like this....these bitches are crazy (in a good way)!!! My members are in for a treat with this one!

Okay, back to the grind!

Relief.

You know, sometimes it's just best to know, and sometimes it's best, when you're so close to finishing something to just complete it. What does this mean?

1. I did a pregnancy test, actually I did 2 and they were bothe negative. In my 14 years or so of having a menstrual cycle I am never late, I am never irregular. I have a 25 day cycle that is like clockwork and always has been (except when I have actually been pregnant) and right now, it is non-existant. It muct be the lack of hormones and the overdose of stress, but whatever it is, it is not a pregnancy. Under normal circumstances a pregnancy would not be bad news...but the month of taking radioactive iodine would be bad, very bad and that foetus would not survive. 1 major stress gone.

2. My work on Fucked and Bound.com is done. The rest is now upto Tony and our programmer, and then of course Visa. The movies are uploaded, the promos are done, the text is written, the update page pics chosen. 10 full videos of hard bondage fucking....done, any problems that arise with scripting, or billing, etc are not my problem to deal with. I will be in LA shooting the porn, not to be bothered with any of that! Another major stress, gone.

I slept in to after 12noon today. My body clearly needed the rest, and later today i have to pick up a rental SUV and load it for the LA trip but for the mpst part, today I want to relax, and not think about editing, shooting, or anything else. Maybe I'll go to the hot tubs for an hour or so.

take care,
Chanta

My body is not my friend right now...

The paranoia continues just when I thought it was over.

About 2 hours after yesterday's "paranoid" journal entry I got my period and was thrilled. Phoned the husband...and felt a huge weight lifted off of my shoulders....but by last night the anxiety was back. Why don't I have cramps...why do my tits still hurt soooo fucking much, and why did I have one very small, very light bleed....um, isn't this supposed to be day 1 of my cycle? Now, I am back to having nightmares that I am pregnant with the radiation baby that will need to be terminated...or I'll miscarry, or have a stillborn, or something else horrible. Does anyone know if being off of my thyroid meds for 7 weeks could affect my menstrual cycle?

Getting my period does not tell me I am not pregnant. I fell for that trick once before with a past husband in what seems like a past life. We used to use condom's as birth control, and it broke. Thankfully, in the UK they had just made the morning after pill legally available without needing a prescription so off we went to get that....and I too it less than 36 hours after the sex. SO, we used a condom and the morning after pill and a few weeks later despite my aching tits I got my period....for a day. Weird right? Did a test, and was pregnant. I chose to terminate that pregnancy. Sorry, but I took precautions, more than enough....2 forms of birth vcontrol for fucks sake and I still got knocked up. That would have been one resented child.

Okay, why I am freaking otu so much? Is it because of the stress of the new site and shooting 10 scenes in LA next week? I need to do a test and get this out of head once and for all because right now, I cannot handle what this is doing to my moods and my state of mind.

Paranoia

I have trouble sleeping, I have for years but when the hormones are taken away (basically my fake thyroid) for 7 weeks sleep is not a problem you have any longer...actually, the problem is the opposite, all the body wants to do is sleep!

I don't dream. If I do I never remember them, not even a hint of a dream...but about a week ago I had nightmares, 2 nights in a row. One had to do with the only family member I am close to drowning. The following night had to do with me and has haunted me ever since.

Last Monday I went to Nuclear Medicine to take my tracer dose of radioactive iodine. Then I left and went and had dinner with Marty. Over dinner I realised that before I took the radiation I had not been asked if I was preganant (to which I would have replied no) and had not been told to do a test. Before any test like this you are always asked and then regardless of the answer made to do a test.

The next night I had this graphic nightmare that after taking the radiation and doing my scan, a few weeks later I would indeed find out I was pregnant in the most awful way. I would be shooting on location in LA and begin to miscarry. There would be blood everywhere. My dream was so graphic. I can remember Angela (my PA) covering the passenger seat in the rental SUV with plastic trash bags, and towels drenched in blodd between my thighs and Justin (videographer) driving 100 miles an hours to get me to the hospital.

Anyway, it has bothered me every day since. I was freaked out after the dream that the next morning I did a pregnancy test (negative) even though my period was not due for another 2 weeks.

I have no real reason to believe I am pregnant. I am not late and my tits hurt a lot but they do every month....I am so strung out on this dream not being a dream but rather a preminition that I have never wanted to bleed so much in my life....and all of this anxiety has been caused by a Nuclear Medicine not following protocol.

7 down, 3 to go....

Fucked and Bound.com will be launched with 10 full updates. That means 10 movies and 10 pic sets that I need to have edited, encoded and uploaded with promotional material for BondageBank (the afilliate program for TwistedFactory), update page layout pics chosen and text written.

So far, I have 7 videos completely done with the last one uploading (with my new T1 connection!!!!) as I type this, I am editing #8 right now too but needed to take a break from all of the big cock, pile driver bondage position fucking LOL!

I seem to be very much on top of things for Twisted Factory but Bondage Expert and my book are falling behind. The amount of unanswered teaching enquiry e-mails I have is insane and I haven't been doing any "Bondage for Sex" promotion whatsoever. Yes, this year is all about TF and the new sites but that doesn't mean the book should disappear and that I shouldn't, at the very least, have the intention of writing volume 2.

I'm expecting 3 new netflix movies to arrive today including "The Dreamers" which I am desperate to see. Tonight I will not working, I'll be enjoying a delicious steak with crab, asparagus and bernaise sauce (Filet Oscar; one of my specialties in the kitchen) and watching a cool movie with my man....assuming #8 is finished that is!!!

Take care,

Fucked & Bound.com Trailer!

Less than a month now until my new site is launched and I have just made a trailer available to wet your appetites!

Check it out, the hottest hardcore boy/girl bondage sex available anywhere!

Fucked and Bound.com

Okay, so here's the dealio...

I've been getting lots and lots of e-mail about which events, cities etc I will be teaching at this year which is cool, (I'm really thrilled that the classes I began teaching in late 2005 and all of 2006 were so well received) and wanted to answer everyone here!

Basically, 2007 is all about my adult web company Twisted Factory. With Chanta's Bitches doing well and Fucked&Bound working it's way to launch I already have a lot on my plate. By the end of 2007, we (Twisted Factory) expect to be launching our 4th site and in the process of training/auditioning our first Webmaster for the company (basically site director). We will also have a studio by then along with more employees (including myself and Tony we currently have a staff of 5)...so where does this leave teaching, and of course a new book?

Well, it doesn't mean I won't teach altogether this year but it does mean I am strictly limiting myself to 4 events/conventions for the entire year. Currently I am only scheduled for KinkFest in Portland, OR in late March. So, if you are an organiser of an event in 2007 and would like me to come and teach there please contact me soon!!! Here's some guidelines:

1. Sorry, but if you are in the middle of America somehwere (like say Kentucky) I am not going to teach my "Electrifying the Cunt" class! It's a risque class to say the least and I am a temporary greencard holder that cannot risk teaching the super explicit stuff in parts of the country that may not be open to it. This class is reserved for Coasts only LOL!

2. I am happy to provide the BDSM community with education but I do also have a mortgage to pay so please don't approach me if at the very least your event is not able to cover my expenses (flight, hotel, etc).

3. Don't invite me to an event where someone else is teaching "Bondage for Sex". I didn't invent the concept so of course I don't mind that others teach it, especially as all instructors are different but if you want me at the event surely you'd have me teaching that class LOL!!!

4. If you just so happen to be an event/store/person that has dismissed me in the past with a comment like "you're a pornstar, you can't teach" or "you're not Midori" then you had better get ready to do some serious sucking up LOL!!!! Yes, I have performed in and direct porn...that doesn't mean I can't teach and yes, I am not Midori...that also does not mean I can't teach!!!! Pornstars are great, Midori is great, and I have repsect for both, but comments/e-mails like those, honestly...grow up.

I live in San Francisco and travel monthly to LA and every 3 months to the UK so these are the places I am most likely to teach at stores, etc. Teaching in stores, markets, etc will be in addition to events but I won;t be doing any specific "teaching" trips per se. More like, if I'm in LA and a venue asks me to teach then I'll say sure. If a specific store/city is interested in having me teach please contact me directly at chanta@bondageexpert.com

And now the BIG question!!! When is "Bondage for Sex, Volume 2" coming out! Well, I have to write it! I am aiming for late 2007 but like I wrote above, this year is all about the web business so no promises on a book for this year!

Hope that helps!
Chanta

The All Clear!

Hi everyone,

Just a quick blog entry about my tests and scans, etc this week in regards to the big C!

Yes, they took blood, x-rayed me and scanned me after almost 6 weeks of being weened off of my hormones and making me feel like crap (forcing the body into hypothyroidism) but all is good and all tests came back clear/negative/etc so I am still cancer free after 18 months. In the past 5 years this is the longest I have ever been without the disease...and this means, next year when scan time comes around I will actually be allowed to have Thyrogen injections to stop me from feeling like crap while weened off of hormones! Woohoo!

On a side note, have been busting my ass working up to the launch of http://www.fuckedandbound.com which I have to say is looking pretty fucking amazing...oh, and the updates pages for Chanta's Bitches now have a new layout: http://www.chantasbitches.com/updates

Take care,
Chanta
