The Definitive Jack And Danny Chronicles:
Meet Daniel Macintyre, our young, happy-go-lucky, short but beautifully proportioned romantic and intellectual action hero. Fully out of the closet as far as his sexuality is concerned Danny is still in denial about his RHS (Red Haired Status) and insists that he’s a straightforward, socially acceptable strawberry blonde. Mayhem seems to dog Danny’s steps and as he’s fond of saying, none of it is his fault. It’s merely the cruel fate that goes with being ginger and short, a condition known as Gingislightus, something that no mouthwash on earth can cure.
Jack Kinross is Danny’s beloved partner and Top. Stereotypically tall dark and handsome, he’s also posh and privately educated with a well-paid and important, but vaguely specified career. A man of expressive looks but few words he relies heavily on sign language executed by hand though often aided and abetted by a large wooden hairbrush that speaks volumes, to Danny anyway, who wishes it would shut its gob and speak far less volubly. Jack’s mission in life is to simply survive the experience of falling in love with a Macintyre and to also safeguard the general public from his adorable boy’s well-intentioned but generally disastrous enterprises.
Climb aboard and let Danny take you on a journey from simple suburbia to the dizzy heights of a cliff in Whitby. Be warned though, this isn’t for the faint hearted or those unable to suspend belief for any length of time.

The Danny and Jack stories fall into a category of domestic discipline literature known as ‘Bratfic.’ Such stories usually, though not exclusively, involve an older man (the Top or Dominant) partnering a younger man (the brat or submissive)
There is without doubt an element of parenting involved in Bratfic. The truth is that parenting is an element present in almost all real-life power exchange practices, to varying degrees. Lots of adult men fantasise about submitting to an authority figure. You only have to peruse gay spanking forums to see how many mature men advertise for partners to play out naughty boy/brat scenarios. It isn’t just about spanking and sex either. It’s about care and guidance and comfort and it's about relinquishing an element of control to a person that is trusted.
Bratfic has attracted much criticism as a form of spanking fiction. Some writers of M/M discipline fiction look down their noses and deem it to be immature…so what! Dressing up as a schoolboy or schoolgirl in order to legitimise a need to be spanked might also be deemed to be immature, but I don’t question the right of such people to express their need in that way. We all have a right to express our kinks, interests and needs in ways that are meaningful to us as individuals. When it comes to written fantasies that mirror deeply felt emotions then no one, absolutely no one has the right to tell another person they are stupid or wrong.
I hope in general that the fine and often tongue in cheek tradition of ‘Bratfic’ where the hapless bottom always gets his just desserts from his Top will live on, despite the derision it has attracted from some poisonous quarters. To my mind ‘Bratfic’ is not only a legitimate form of discipline fiction, it’s an essential and often supremely well written one that gives rich expression to the spanking kink we all purport to enjoy. Let there be no discrimination against an art form that has spawned many good writers and entertained numerous readers.
