the winner of the august bastinado story contest has been decided today after concluding a poll voting in our group and DINA SAMIR BAD DAY story has won the first place by 84% of the votes...congratulations DINA and good luck for all the contestants in our new September bastinado story contest...

    adelomida and nadiaheg are preparing a new story book that includes all the bastinado literature that has ever written or appeared over the internet...about half the book is completed until now...if you have collected some stories that we might forget, send them to us to publish them and to complete this lovely dream bastinado story reference book...you can send your stuff to either:

adelomida@hotmail.com or nadiaheg@yahoo.com

we will list all the stories we collected so far so that you know what we have and what we have missed...

    so far the participating level in our September contest is still low...so let me remind you all that we have offered a good prize every month which is a free month subscription in an adult web site of your choice...but the more important thing is that we get the chance to read lots of new and fresh stories each month about our beloved bastinado.

we all know that bastinado stuff are very scarce and rare in the net, but the source that never end about bastinado is our imagination...so let's keep this community live and share our imagination together....
