Author's Note: As the Freyja Club narrative continues to evolve, I find that it's impossible to simply chronicle my own journey. The original series is now approaching thirty chapters (!) with no end in sight. To bring some context and flesh out some of the main characters, I started to chronicle their journey as well in a companion series entitled Other Voices of which there are eight so far. Recently, and by happenstance, I met Elizabeth Boyer in the club. She figures prominently in the story of Travis and the role of stewards in the Freyja Club and as we talked she confided that she had begun to write a memoir of her sexual life. I was fascinated and thrilled when she agreed to let me read it. Unlike the stories in Other Voices, Her memoir is entirely her own. It's probably a series in its own right, but we'll see. Here are the first ten pages which I'll call chapter one. Enjoy.
Prologue
So I have chosen to write. Having a memoir has a certain appeal, perhaps it is merely my vanity. Perhaps it is to have some evidence of my existence to leave behind as I have no children. Perhaps it is that I have reached the time in my life where I am looking at my future through my past, and a memoir is my method of re-finding myself. Affirming my identity, if only for myself.
I am not sure how one goes about writing a memoir; I am not given to reading such things. Is it appropriate to consider the present and reflect upon the future before moving to the past? Or should I begin, "Once upon a time...?"
I have no true idea, so I will simply work my way about it. Supposedly a memoir ought to be entirely written by the autobiographer, but I will include the correspondence I've had with my lovers. The letters that were written to me, and by me. There is prose that has been dedicated to me, poetry as well. Shall I include these things? Perhaps I might, perhaps not. My memoir does not have to be written by me entirely, it is my memoir. I am writing for my own gratification and I have been known to be capricious. I think I shall also include my fantasies. In moments alone I have played a few so often in my mind that I have come to regard them not as fantasy but rather as memory.
Yes, there's definitely a place for those.
The question is now, where should I begin? So many things crowd to the front, things that were life-altering, or stand out in my memory as special. In my mind, of all my lovers, one stands above all others and I miss him terribly. My most vivid memories and fantasies are about him. Perhaps I should begin at the beginning, where I lost my virginity and discovered that sex was a wonderful exploration of the senses. Such innocence in my almost juvenile paintings. I still find myself smiling fondly at the thoughts of my naive and delighted virginal love.
No, now that I think about it, the loss of my virginity was not the beginning of my sexuality. It was before that. I guess it begins with my curiosity about myself.
I was my parent's only daughter but I had two older brothers, so I was reminded daily that boys and girls are decidedly different. I often observed them naked and I believe that I had acquired a general understanding of the function of the appendage that they had between their legs, but which I didn't possess. For some reason, it seemed that it was okay for me to look at them naked, but all hell would break out in our house if it was discovered that they were looking at me.
One day I had a long talk with my mom. She asked if I ever played between my legs. I was so surprised that I didn't know what to say, so I lied. My mother just smiled and said that I didn't need to be afraid. All girls do it and it's normal. She said it in such a casual and nonchalant way that all my flimsy defenses just crashed and we had a conversation that I'll never forget.
She told me that I was coming of age and she had promised herself that she would not be leaving me to figure out things for myself, rather she would tell me everything that she said that she wished her own mother had shared with her. For over two hours we talked and no subject was off the table.
She told me how my body would change and what to expect when it did. I had a couple of friends who had begun to have their monthly periods, so I already had learned some of the things she said, but there was ever so much more. Perhaps the most memorable part of the conversation was when she talked about sexual attraction. A woman's body is designed to attract male attention and she emphasized that men would almost do anything to have sex with me. Oh, I would be attracted to them too, but she said that it would be nowhere near the animal need that nature has designed in the male of the species, and if I understood this simple fact, I could get almost anything I desired. She emphasized that I would find my greatest happiness when I understood that God has created us female to complement men, not to compete with them. Time has proven her to be correct.
She told me how sex would feel the first time and she warned me that it might initially be disappointing, but the pleasure would increase with experience. She even described the feelings she had when she fucked my father and sucked his cock and more. I know that for most of our conversation, I probably sat open-mouthed and wide-eyed, but I will always be thankful for my mother's gift.
Nudity
If I am honest, I have always been an exhibitionist, I think I was born to like it although I did not recognize it about myself until I was grown up. I have always had a thing about enjoying taking my clothes off. I adore swimming in the nude and I've discovered that I find exhibiting my body arousing and I love the thrill of teasing men and sometimes even women!
I love the feeling of being naked and fondling myself. I particularly like to feel the curve of my hips, my soft butt cheeks, my thighs, and most of all, my breasts. From a very young age, I've loved the sensation that I get when I squeeze my pussy between my thighs. At home, I prefer to be naked or nearly so. I often wear a short robe, but most of the time I leave it untied. I have posed naked for a college art class and I have a friend who has photographed me and I have several albums of erotic pictures that I enjoy sharing with my lovers. I am ever thankful for the gift of my femininity and I remember singing the song from the musical A Flower Drum Song, "I enjoy being a Girl." indeed I do.
I've decided that I will include five photographs of me which were taken at a hotel in Dallas when I was fifty-one. They are among my most cherished memories.
In the first photo, I'm standing and leaning against a doorway. The shot is from the back and shows the curve of my back and hips with my butt prominently displayed. One arm is raised and grasping the door frame and I'm looking back over my shoulder. I think my look is mysteriously erotic with my head tilted back and my shoulder-length blonde hair touching my back. Below my raised arm, one breast can be seen in profile.
The second photo is full frontal. I'm still in the doorway, but I'm facing the camera. Both arms are extended to the edge of the door frame and I've crossed my ankles which give me a decided 'crucified' look. I've cocked my head to one side, as if questioning something just said. I love the way my breasts look jutting with just a hint of sag, but the focus of the photo is my pussy. Crossing my ankles emphasized the curve of my hips and the eye is drawn to the center where my pussy forms a V between my thighs. I am wantonly naked and it's one of my favorites.
In photo number three I'm leaning over a low coffee table with my hands and one knee on it. It looks like I might be ready to get on. I'm looking directly at the camera and licking my lips. The shot is from the front quarter, so my breasts, which are hanging from my chest, are displayed in a sort of semi-profile. The pose accentuates my hips and though somewhat in shadow, my pussy is visible and the curve of my mound is silhouetted in front of my raised leg.
I had to put on a skirt, blouse, and heels for photo four. I was posed on the sofa and my feet were raised and rested on the edge of the coffee table. My blouse is open and my breasts can be clearly seen resting on my chest. The skirt has been raised to my hips, baring my legs. My head is forward and my eyes are raised to look at the camera. One hand rests on the sofa but the fingers of the other are raised to my lips. Again, the focus of the shot is what is revealed between my spread legs. The moist slit of my pussy can be seen through my sparse pubic hair. My friend calls it my 'nothingness' and I'm quite enamored with it.
The final shot was unplanned. I think my friend had taken about thirty shots of me, and the more the camera clicked, the more aroused I became. I was sitting on the sofa and I just pulled him close, unzipped his pants, and exposed his firm cock which I eagerly took into my mouth. He took several photos of me sucking him, but this one is my favorite. He was able to hold the camera far enough away to the side to frame me from the waist up. My breasts are visible as are my slim shoulders and arms. I'd just reapplied lipstick so the point where his shaft was engulfed in my mouth, the red oval of my lips clearly marks the demarcation line between his flesh and mine. A few minutes later, I was rewarded with a mouthful of his sweet cum, and this picture reminds me of that wonderful moment.
