Hello, I’m John Kostly, but you may know me better by my pen name, “Kostly”. For the past twenty-five years, I’ve been deeply involved in the BDSM and Polyamorous lifestyle, not just as a participant but also as a passionate advocate, educator, and writer. My journey is one that has spanned continents, crossed barriers, and broken stereotypes, all while fostering a deep understanding of this subculture. I have a rich background, including a background in psychology and extensive experience in human sexuality.

My passion for writing began as a personal quest to improve my English, but it quickly became so much more. It became a platform for me to share my experiences, educate, and advocate for a lifestyle that is often misunderstood and misr

Quotes by John Kostly  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“This adult novel is a dystopic/utopia sci-fi fetish fairy tale. The story within is erotic. It contains politics, intimate encounters, and depictions of heavy BDSM sex—including sadomasochism—between consenting adults that will inspire a wide range of emotions. I only intended it for those who enjoy such content. Many will find it engaging and entertaining, but some will not. If you do not enjoy BDSM erotica, I suggest you read something else.”
― John Kostly, Amber: Priceless Gemstones

“It starts as it always does, with a glimpse. Her stunning looks light the fire of his deepest desire. She’s one of many, though no others have come close. The customary slave offering encompasses a plethora of stunning specimens. Though, only one catches his eye.”
― John Kostly, Amber: Priceless Gemstones

Frank Garff Thanks for the vote of frienship

i got stupid and Amazon has no sense of humor

i got my groups back, thanks to a friend, but i still had to change my name.

i am fighting the bot attacks. i was when they pulled my plug
the reason i got my groups back... the person who inherited the gig refused to take the bots seriously.
so another mod decided we were better off before, so she pulled the new mods plug and brought me back.
i'm trying to rebuild my friend list

i'm incognito,, my name is John
