The other two Sally Rooneys

In addition to Sally Rooney's 'Normal People', I have now read her first novel 'Conversations with Friends' and I am mid-way through her third, 'Beautiful World Where are you?' I have enjoyed and am still enjoying all three.

She is called a leading millenial author. Insecurity, doubts and submissive thoughts are unmistakable characteristics of a millenials mind, so it seems.

This confirms my own impressions of  some of the real-life millenials I know (and love.) For whatever thay have mentally gained compared to my generation, simplicity is not one of those things. When I was young you were either going out with someone or not, and going out meant certain things. These days, the shades of black or white are endless - shades of grey.

If grey is happiness, fine.

The origin of one of my fetishes

I have fetishes and am ready to admit this. One of them is exhibitionism. I like to show myself in the nude in places and circumstances where this is not normally appropriate. My aim is not to offend or disturb, but to stimulate myself. Not be seen stimulating myself; that is done afterwards. I have thought a lot about what started me on this road. This is one of the reasons: https://www.dr.dk/bonanza/serie/473/tv-t---70erne/52080/doedens-triumf  (the German version showed 'explicit' nudity.) https://www.dr.dk/bonanza/serie/473/tv-t---70erne/63680/doedens-triumf  ('explicit' excerpt on  https://youtu.be/XHhtIRJtQoc ) Dødens triumf (The triumph of death), Ballet for TV by Flemming Flindt and Eugène Ionesco with music by Thomas Koppel played by Savage Rose I saw part of this Danish theatre performance as a very young girl on German TV, by chance, and could not believe what I saw. I did not know the word Erotic, or the concept, for that matter. But to see fully nude women ...

My return as Vanna Vechian

Dear Friends, This marks my return to the world as Vanna Vechian. A big step for me, a small step for mankind. For a decade or two, I wrote Erotic Fiction (and Faction) under this name. My site was at http://www.daisy.co.uk/sites/VannaVechian/vanna_vechian.html , but I have lost control of this site and lost touch with the website owner. I am happy that the site is still there, because it saves rigging up a replacement site. The content, however, is static and backdated. I had a blog here for a while ( http://vannavechian.blogspot.com/ ) , but again I have lost control of that blog and the underlying e-mail address. Still, there is still content to peruse. More recently, I have been publishing erotic fiction and faction as Vitavie on Literotica.You should be able to find me there. I hope to be able to amuse, inspire and stimulate you with my new entries here. Look forward to interacting with you. Love, Vanna
