Paddles
From Spanking Art
Paddles is a spanking magazine, published in Australia (Sydney), but catering to an international readership. It is avaliable in both hard copy format and in an online version. It is currently (as of May 2006) published bi-monthly. It contains original illustrated spanking stories and "Letters to The Editor". Paddles features F/M, M/F, and F/F content. "Most of our stories contain heaps of spanking and lots of sex, but it must be consensual" (Michael in 2003).
There are free samples issues available on the site, the online version in simple text and illustrations and the hard copies in PDF format. In addition, the site offers a free "Send a greeting card" using a selection of Leonardo's drawings; a personals service; DVDs for sale; links; 4 volumes of illustrated spanking stories; and Uncle Robert's spanking services for women.
[edit] History
Paddles has been published online since 1997. All issues since 1998 are still available online to current subscribers. From 1998 through 2004 Paddles was published on a monthly basis, switching to bi-monthly (January, March, May, July, September, and November) in 2005.
Paddles magazine was published in printed form before it was available online. The printed version goes back to at least 1995. The May 2006 issue will be the 117th magazine produced to date.
Leonardo was the first regular artist who was commissioned to illustrate stories and cartoons for Paddles. Lee took over some years ago when Leonardo retired. Many examples of Lee's work can be seen in different places on the Paddles site.
