From Joseph,            
The Game Reserve,                
Andhra Pradesh,                    
India.                        

            To Shanti,
                Titirangi,
                    Auckland,
                        New Zealand.

Dear Shanti and Mike,
        Thanks for your letter. Thanks also for your photos. It’s always good to receive both that I’m not knowing which to like the best. Well, our correspondence is continuing and in the interest, it is continuing too. I never know where it might be taking us to next time. But always we are interested and that is the most important idea.
        The idea of you on that beach all alone with a stranger hidden nearby is very exciting but also don’t you think it was a little dangerous for you too. We don’t think you should be going to such lonely places in the dark too by yourself. That man could be a bad man, willing to do those terrible things to you.

Hello from Shandra.

            As you have probably realised, this is a fill-in story to keep the order letter going back and forth between New Zealand and India. Later, when the Letters become Stories, there will be no need to maintain this order.
            Joseph opens this letter by telling Shanti that while her story was exciting it was also really dangerous too and she shouldn’t be taking such a risk by being on a lonely beach at night. I think you would expect a good friend to offer a warning like this.

            In the next part of his letter, Joseph talks about what a Ripper Stripper Party might be about. Both he and his wife, Lizamoa, are looking forward to reading Shanti’s next story about this interesting event. (I suppose all you readers are as well.)

            The final section of the letter is about their travel plans for their trip to New Zealand. Joseph is asking about possible places to visit as well as asking Shanti and Mike if it is possible to stay at their house.

            There is a PS at the end of this letter where Joseph describes the four photos included in the letter which they decided to enclose at the last moment. These photos show the three couples who played the game “Strip” in India before the game began.

            Kia Kaka - Kia Kaha.
                  Be safe - Be strong.
                        Shandra.

Letter 21 Alone on the Beach.

From Shanti,            
Titirangi,            
Auckland,            
New Zealand.            

            To Joseph,
            The Game Reserve,
            Andhra Pradesh,
            India.

Dear Joseph and Lizamoa,
        Again we thank you for a lovely letter and an interesting story too. We are doing well here in New Zealand and we hope you both are doing the same over there too.

        Here are the last four photos of the “Red Sari Series.” Now you can see the end of the story. Yes Joseph you did guess the ending in your last letter. Here is Mike and I on the floor and as you can see we were doing two different sexual positions. Do you like them? I think it is very sexy to know you both will be seeing photos of us like this.

Letter 21 Background

Index of Letters.                      Return to Letter 21.

Hello from Anne.

            First off Letter 21 opens with Shanti telling Joseph about the last three photos of the Red Sari Series enclosed with this letter. The photos show Shanti and Mike in a couple of sexual positions. At this point, we decided the swapping of photos theme had run its course so we dropped it after this letter. From here on we will mention that photos have been sent or swapped but there will not be another series like the Red Sari Series.

            Then the letter moves on to Shanti’s story, “Alone on the Beach.” While Allan and Susan were working on their story together, the second beach story from Letter 19 which you got to read two weeks ago, I found myself a bit on my own. I began to feel a bit lonely, a bit left out, which when you think about it was really quite silly. This is where the theme of this story came from.
            The basic story is actually very simple; a girl sitting on a lonely beach making herself cum while she fantasized about her boyfriend, meanwhile up on the hillside in the darkness a man is watching her. To me, this story had a couple of ideas that made it both a bit sexy and a bit dangerous at the same time. The thought of making myself cum while a complete stranger watched me became a big turn-on for me. Then the fact that it took place on a lonely beach at night also added that element of danger as well.

            When the story was almost finished, Allan began reading it one day. He mentioned that Shanti and Mike could have been talking with each other on the internet the night before and she could be reliving that conversation in her mind as she made herself cum. I liked the idea but it took a bit of rewriting to work this into the story. Anyway, it is worth the effort as it made for a far better story.

            Finally, Shanti finished the letter by promising a really good story next letter. This is the big one, the Ripper Stripper Party which we will get to read in Letter 23.

            Kia Kaka - Kia Kaha.
                  Be safe - Be strong.
                        Anne.

Letter 20 I Become Lizamoa’s Sex Slave.

Index of Letters                  Letter 20 Background Notes.                  Back to Letter 19.

Forward to Letter 21.

From Joseph,            
The Game Reserve,                
Andhra Pradesh,                    
India.                        

            To Shanti,
                Titirangi,
                    Auckland,
                        New Zealand.

Dear Shanti and Mike,
        We were pleased to get your letter and even more pleased when we found there was another story for us to enjoy. It was good to hear that you are happy with our travelling plans. We will be able to take 3 or 4 weeks but which time is the best time to visit New Zealand. I have heard it can be cold and rainy in the winter time so maybe we are planning the summer is best.
        So we are still seeing more of the “Red Sari Series” but the red sari disappeared many months ago. Yes, we see you both on the floor. Is it the massaging that you both are up to? What will you both be getting up to within the next letter? Maybe it will be the sex. Please tell me it is.
        Now we were happy to read your story. Lizamoa said it was a little bit like the other beach story but she liked this one better. I am thinking you always seem to be losing the red bikini. My advice is don’t be buying the red bikini again.
        I was a bit confused with your last two stories. It seems in your last letter you are younger than in the story before. Can this be right? In the first story, Lizamoa thinks you and Mike are married while in the last it seems you are dating. Also, which is the first time skinny dipping. It can't be both times. I am confused.

Letter 20 Background

Index of Letters.                      Return to Letter 20.

Hello from Susan.

            I writing together for Letter 19 was so successful that we decided to try a similar style again but this time I teamed up with Allan. You will notice that the writers are now beginning to mix up the characters we are writing about and working together on stories as well which is having the effect of blurring our different writing styles but at the same time making for much better letters and stories.
            By the time this letter was written we had begun reading our work to each other at the group writers meetings. Usually, others have suggestions on how our stories could be improved and so as we began working on these suggestions, our stories get changed, from the way we would probably have written ourselves.
            My boyfriend Brian sat in on the writers meeting when this story was read to the group. He enjoyed it so much that he asked me later what this letters thing was all about. It was at this point that he became involved in the project.

So, How Did We Write This?

            We wrote this story using two different viewpoints, with Allan taking Joseph’s view and me taking Lizamoa’s. We first wrote down some ideas separately about how this story should go then we worked in together writing a story outline. Next, we began filling in the outline using our separate notes until we had completed the major sections of the story. We then went back over the story filling in and changing details here and there. Finally, we did a major work-over of the conversation, adding in a lot more including some of the sounds made during the sex scenes.
            Writing a story like this was a major change for us and we believe the story that was produced took our writing skills up to another level. For a while, this Letter stood out as being so different but you will notice that over time other letters will begin to reflect this same style of writing.

Now, The Ideas Behind This Story.

            We had two great stories about Shanti and Mike at the beach sharing some very special moments between them so we thought it would be great to have a special story from India too. We also wanted a story that would develop the personalities of Joseph and Lizamoa while at the same time show the close relationship between them. The perfect solution was this story about one special evening when they were able to achieve a new level in their relationship with each other.

There Are a Few Interesting Ideas.

            First, I wanted to break the traditional Indian idea of the man being the head of the house. Catching Joseph in the shower gave Lizamoa the opportunity to take the lead in the scene that followed. She played this to the full and they both were surprised to discover that they rather liked her doing it.
            Secondly, Allan added something from his and Anne’s sex life;- walking into the shower fully clothed. I had found this a turn-on when Anne told me she did this and so we decided Lizamoa would do it too. You will find in future stories that Lizamoa does this a number of times with some interesting variations of it too.
            Thirdly we wanted to explore the idea of talking dirty as well. Lizamoa in the story admits she has never used the words she used here which was a sudden turn-on for both her and Joseph as well. Again this is an aspect of sex we hadn’t considered before and so it was a bit of extra fun to try it in this story. You will see ideas from this story appear in a number of future stories too. The outcome for Joseph and Lizamoa; a greatly improved sex life.

Criticism of This Story.

            There were some negative points about this story that influenced how we wrote future stories. First, Joseph was apparently telling this story so how could he know what Lizamoa was thinking? Now in larger stories, we tend to give different sections to different characters to tell. It became confusing for readers. Secondly, we weren't comfortable with the sex noises so have never really used them again.

            So what do you think of this story? It is different, one of the best up until this point. It really stepping out there for us, experimenting, taking a risk. It in many ways defined many of our future stories.
            I enjoyed working closely with Allan. He is a great guy and a good writer too. I wish I could find a man like him.   (I did actually - him!)

            Kia Kaka - Kia Kaha.

Letter 19 First Time Skinny Dipping.

From Shanti,

New Zealand.            

            To Joseph,
            The Game Reserve,

Dear Joseph and Lizamoa,
        Wow! So you two got to play “Strip.”The thought of you guys stripping to the fate of cards is almost as thrilling as when I got to do it the first time myself. Did Lizamoa enjoy stripping and baring her body in front of those men too? I know you well enough Joseph to know that you welcomed any chance to bare your erection for the ladies. Am I right?

Hi from Susan.

            I am a friend of Shandra and Anne. This is the first background story I have written for our online version of Letters because this was the first story I helped with from start to finish. Since Allan did a great job writing the background for Letter 17 Background we thought it was a good idea for me to have a go at one too.
            I wanted to try something different. A different font colour, headings etc. See how this works.

The Letter Opening.

            This letter opens with Shanti commenting on the story about Lizamoa and Joseph playing the game ‘strip’ with their friends. This talking about being nude then led to her talking about the next few photos from The Red Sari Series. In these photos, Mike and Shanti are giving each other a full nude massage.

Now About Writing the Story.

            Shandra had been given the story about playing the game ‘Strip’ in India and she was a bit disappointed that she couldn’t go all out and write a great story, one even better than the ‘Strip’ story Anne had done. She then heard that Anne and Allan were working on another story about skinny dipping and sex on the beach. We were all together one day when Shandra told Anne that she would like to write a story with a similar theme.
            Anne replied that she should give it a go. The problem was that it was very unlikely that in a crowded country like India, Joseph and Lizamoa would ever get a chance to skinny dip and make love on a beach. So Anne suggested that she should write a story about Shanti and Mike. Since Allan and Anne had teamed up to write the first beach story, Shandra decided to ask me to join her in writing this second beach story. We got together and this is the outcome.

The Story.

            This story is set on an east coast beach north of Auckland. There are a couple of beaches which might just fit but we didn’t really have a particular beach in mind when we wrote the story. The main features we needed in this story were a lonely beach and rough surf. There also needed to be some private place where they could have sex together after their swim. A line of sand dunes behind the beach worked perfectly for this.
            We knew that Anne and Allan were writing a story based on their first time together but we didn’t know they were also writing about the first time Shanti went skinny dipping as well. So we based our story on the first time Shanti ever went nude swimming at a beach. It was not until later that we realised we had actually written about the same thing.
            We also realised that in Anne and Allan's story, this couple appeared to be married while in our story they appear to be dating. Perhaps if we had managed to swap places our stories might have fitted better but we didn't realise this second mistake until we were preparing to publish this second story.
            At first, we considered changing one of our stories but then since both were great stories, we decided to leave them both just as they were. So here it is; Shanti’s second time skinny dipping for her first time. Or is this her first time skinny dipping and Story 17 is her second time. Ha! Ha! Who knows and in the end who really cares.
            The story talks about the first time Mike took Shanti to a surf beach and she enjoyed this until she ended up getting sand inside her bikini. She took it off to clean out the sand just as a wave hit, sweeping the bikini out of her hand. She ended up swimming naked in the surf. One point we thought about later was why Mike didn’t join her naked as well. At the time we never thought about him doing this.
            Of course, there had to be a sex scene up in the sand dunes where Shanti and Mike made love to each other. It was a bit different because of the sandy location, in fact, Shanti was a bit reluctant at first because of the sand, but still, the sex scene worked fairly well. After they had sex together they still had to get back to their car without Shanti being seen by anyone.

Other Details.

            In this story, Shandra and I used a slightly different style of writing where we each took the point of view of a different person and merged them into one story. This appeared to work well and it stands out differently from other letters before it. Even in the story, Shanti mentioned it, and she explained the difference by saying that she got a lot of help and input from Mike. Writing this way worked so well that we gave it another go in Letter 20 where I teamed up with Allan to write that story.
            After reading our story, Anne suggested a reason why Shanti took off her bikini which she then lost in the surf. This worked better than our original idea where we didn’t really say why Shanti took her bikini off. Finally, after Allan worked on the conversation a bit for us, we had another good beach story. Hope you all enjoy it.

            Kia Kaka - Kia Kaha.

            To Shanti,
                Titirangi,
                    Auckland,
                        New Zealand.

Dear Shanti and Mike,
        Thank you for the very good letter with the very good story too. Also, I am thanking you for the very good photos too. In return, I also are having a good story to be telling too.
        But first, we want to be asking about you in New Zealand. If you are in fact healthy and in the best happiness. We hope to hear that you are. Now here in India, we also are very healthy too. We enjoy to get the best correspondence from you because each letter has much of interest for us. Please send us the complete copy of our letters so we can also see them all together.

Letter 18 Background.

Index of Letters.                      Return to Story 18.

Hello from Shandra.

            Finally, we get to the story about how they played ‘Strip’ in India but first, notice that Joseph was in so much of a hurry to get into his story that he hardly mentions the photos Shanti had sent and only briefly talks about getting all the letters together in one book. We purposely wrote the letter like this to present some more of Joseph’s character or dare I say that he was just like a typical guy.

            I was a little disappointed that I had to intentionally make this story not as good as the one which Anne wrote for Shanti. I wanted to write a better story than her one and I think I could have too but I understood the reason why Joseph’s story shouldn’t be better than Shanti’s.
            The problem is that Joseph is not as good as Shanti at writing stories and letters since English is his second language and so, of course, the story had to reflect this. So by putting in a bit of bad grammar and using the typical way Indians talked, added to this effect too. You will notice that Joseph’s English will improve with time.

            Notice Joseph spent as much time telling you about the people who were going to play the game as he did in actually telling you about the game. He also made no attempt to tell you the rules or anything like that. My intention was to give Joseph’s impression of the game rather than giving a complete and accurate account.
            A final touch at making it more readable was to get Joseph to copy off Shanti’s story by adding a list of the players and what they were wearing. At the end of the story, we added another small chart giving the final results of the game. In the end, it turned out to be a pretty good story and it is quite different to Shanti’s.
            This story is important to the letters series since it introduces us to two more couples, Sarvesh and his wife Amita; Jeevan and his wife Mandara. These two couples will appear in many of the great stories we have for you in future letters. By building up the size of our cast we could now write a greater variety of sexy activities and adventures.
                        Regards from Shandra.

September 2016.
            When this story was being written we were wondering where this series of letters/stories was taking us. We realised we needed something to generate more sexy stories. That is where the idea came up that one couple needed to visit the other then later the other couple could make an exchange visit. Little did we know it at the time but it would take until the end of Volume 4 just to complete the stories about both of these trips.
            So to start this new direction of Letters off, Joseph ends his letter with a P.S. hinting that he and Lizamoa might be able to come to New Zealand to visit Shanti and Mike. This idea will develop over the next few letters until the actual trip is organised. We think doing it this way over a series of letters is much more realistic than Joseph just saying, “Hi, we are coming to New Zealand,” and then turning up there in the very next letter.
                        Regards again from Shandra.

December 2023.
            During the recent work on recoding and correcting the early stories of this blog, Anne has given me permission to rewrite and improve this story. I've added more detail and some conversation while trying to keep within our writing style and ability of that period in our writing.
            This is the first step into social nudity for everyone in this game. I wanted to capture this in the story. Finally, I wanted to get those at the table to agree they would be open to doing something like this again. Joseph mentions the possibility of a nude picnic. Even the shy Mandara thought this was a good idea.
                        Regards yet again from Shandra.

            Kia Kaka - Kia Kaha.
                  Be safe - Be strong.
