Meet the Scribe

Who is the Naughty Scribe?

Born in the Highlands of Scotland, the Naughty Scribe’s heart belongs to the mountains and glens—from snowbound peaks where ptarmigan roam to sheltered slopes where deer graze among the heather.

But the cities have their own claim on him. Discreet bars, dark clubs and the free spirits who venture into the night offer a different landscape to explore, with just as many stories waiting to be discovered.

You might find him at the end of a dimly lit bar, a notebook open before him, a pen turning lazily between his fingers. An overheard remark, a curious encounter, someone lingering by a doorway—any one of them might find its way onto the page.

Why write?

There are too many stories rebounding around inside the Scribe’s mind to keep them all there. Sooner or later, they need somewhere to go—and somewhere others might discover them and find a little entertainment.

There is pleasure in the act itself, too. Pen on paper, ink forming words, a thought taking shape beneath the hand. Sometimes the next idea only emerges once the writing begins.

The notebook is rarely far away.

What awaits you?

Stories from across the world, each carrying a little of Scotland with it.

Meet the staff of The Last Drop Tavern in Edinburgh, offering sanctuary to those who need it as their lives cross the boundaries of time.

Venture into the shadowy depths of Berlin’s clubs, where the creatures of the night come out to play and an unfamiliar door might lead somewhere unexpected.

Or join the Laird and the Witch, whose guests encounter hidden desires—and must choose whether to explore them or leave them behind closed doors.

Along the way, expect folklore, mystery, temptation and the occasional flash of mischief.

A word about the darker corners

These stories are intended for adult readers aged 18 and over. Many carry an undercurrent of sensuality; some become more explicit as their characters venture further into desire, power and kink.

Others linger in the uncertainty before a choice is made, when a glance or an invitation can change the course of an evening.

Still to come

Some tales will stand alone, written to be shared at reading nights with Kinky Souls in Berlin. Others will grow into larger sagas, connecting characters across time and space.

The notebook continues to fill. There are more people to meet, more doors to open and more stories waiting for their turn.
