I rarely show my face. And I am not just talking about online. There is a reason ‘weremouse’ is one of my online nicknames.
My entire life I’ve strained to be invisible. That is one of the things that happens when you grow up in a family where it is best to not be seen or heard. Of course the problem is I spent so much of my life being invisible that becoming visible has been a bit of a challenge for me.
No, I’m not kidding. People forget me almost as soon as they’ve met me. I used to consider that a plus. Now I consider it a major detriment. (Though I guess if I would be turned into a vampire in S Meyer’s version of vampirism, it would be a killer gift to have. The invisible vampire. Though it would get very lonely. Makes me think of the Star Trek Voyager episode where they came upon a race who was forgotten within days. Yep, that’s me. Wait, I got off track…)
Over the last year I have been a lot more open on this blog than I usually am, but I’ve always been able to hide behind my legs. You still don’t know me. I could walk right up and you wouldn’t know I am Thianna D.
I’ve decided to change that. Part of my invisibility is my basic fear of being noticed, at which point bad things happen – or so says the little girl inside. But part of it is my mother harping in my ear “they don’t know it’s you, right? This could harm your future.”
Pfft! I’m an erotic author who is also a submissive. Get over it mother.
Drum roll please? Yep, I am revealing my face. Yep. This is me. Meet Thianna D.
I’m not sure whether to jump for joy that I’m ‘out’ or to go hide under a blanket. I’ll get back to you on that.

That's an awesome thing! I'm so proud of you. <br /><br />I'm one of those in your face kind of people, but I'm still camera shy. Which is weird. But anyway, I commend you. You're not just lovely on the inside, but the outside too. 🙂
Thanks Saranna:) (Pretty name by the way)<br /><br />Yeah, I usually prefer to be behind the camera. Getting in front of one is not easy:)<br /><br />Thanks for the compliments:)
What a lovely face you have Thianna dear! :)<br />I applaud you for being brave, I'm still hiding behind my little avatar. :D<br />Lovely to meet you!<br />~Addy
Thanks for the compliment, Addy:)<br /><br />It has taken me a long time to get to this 'space'.
Congrats on your "coming out," Thianna. We should hold a party. I wish you much success on your new venture.
Thanks Kathryn:)
Late to this comment stream but Kudos for "coming out". Don't want to sound hypocritical 'cuz I don't have a human pic but, unfortunately, there are "some business issues" on my side.
I can completely understand. In some businesses it is best if people don't know what you do.
Seen you around cyberspace an awful lot.. Congrats on revealing yourself… I am avoiding it at all costs..<br /><br />Good luck with life…x
Thanks Vixen:) Showing one's face is a choice you have to make for yourself. For me it was all about freedom and being myself, but I can totally understand why someone wouldn't show themself.
