On The Devil of Dublin and Going "All In"

I doubt it has gone unnoticed by those in the Quinn community, but just in case this slipped under anyone's radar, The Devil of Dublin is now fully revealed (I mean his identity, pervs) and has made the announcement that he is going "all in" at the same time. That was something like 2 (3?) months ago, and watching his journey is SO fascinating.

So TDOD, or Eric Nolan, made a huge announcement some while back when he revealed not only what he looks like, but his name and daytime career. To say this is fairly unprecedented might be an understatement. To my knowledge, I haven't seen a major Quinn or erotica VA come out of their anonymity and certainly not like this. Not to mention the fact that Eric has been one of the most popular voices on the app.

I mentioned in the past that I was concerned that this move might have been due to pressure brought on by fans (something I assumed given the exodus of several anonymous VAs from social media). I was also concerned because of some discourse I had read from people worrying that if they saw what some of these actors looked like, how disappointed they would be if they didn't find them physically attractive.

To the first point, obviously I just wasn't giving Eric enough credit as a grown man who knows his mind. That's on me any my own unconscious bias that I am currently working towards.

To the second point, well. Eric honestly wasn't worried about that, nor should he have been, as he painted the image of himself to be as accurate as I'm sure his fans had hoped. But the poster on Reddit, where I read that baseless fear, still sticks in my mind and I feel the need to address it in a separate post. But for now, let's just say that if anyone was nervous that Eric wouldn't, er, live up to the hype, let's say, then I'm hoping it's been put to rest because honestly, have you seen him?

Since the reveal, I can't help but notice his posts, both on Quinn and social media, to be more filled with abandon. At the risk of a BDSM joke, it's like he'd been somewhat shackled down and now he is freed. He can incorporate more of himself into his work. I know he does a lot of collaboration with BB Easton (which is brilliant, she's a fantastic writer), but it's been cool to see him explore.

And explore he has! I think the first thing that really took me, hmm. Not off guard, but rather maybe by pleasant surprise? Was his Rest Day Ramble.

Now, I know I'm not the only one out there who can say they love a ramble, but I REALLY love rambles. There is something so much more vulnerable about them. If they are truly spontaneous and unscripted, there is a sense of reciprocation that might not exist in the fantasy scenarios. Which, I love those as well, but there can be at times (for me) a sense of loneliness in them. Like this is just for my benefit. And I do know that many creators get a real charge simply of the act of coming up and figuring out these fun stories, who enjoy the total process from start to finish. So I know it's not entirely one-sided. But, there is still something to be said about the feedback loop that comes from someone allowing themselves pleasure for the sake of another's pleasure.

I do want to be clear here, that I am still fully recognizing the parasocial nature of this exchange and I am both cognizant and respectful of the boundaries. But if a VA wants to adjust those boundaries and let us in just a little bit, I am grateful for the opportunity to share in the energetic exchange as I personally find it fulfilling.

I say so many words to just say that the Rest Day Ramble was so very hot. Just. So hot. Part of it is, in fact, that vulnerability. Eric speaks to the listener directly. He gently teases us for playing along and maybe responding to questions out loud. He gives us a window into his process, how it can physically affect him to do these audios. I will say, whether this is true or not, the idea that he finishes one of his saucy, extra spicy Devil stories feeling excited and bereft, took my breath away. I mean. What an image! And of course he knew exactly what he was doing by painting it for us.

I won't go much further into discussing this particular audio because I feel like it's worth it to go have a listen for yourself if you haven't. But it pretty much descends into the kind of sweaty miasma you tend to expect from a licentious 6ft-something tall Irishman. It's glorious and should definitely be in queue if it's not already.

From there we see a rise in some of the most delicious collabs I've ever seen. From his Devil's Pact series, in which we see Mairsyy as our knight in shining honor (poor guy....) to Tom York in the London Calling series (when will there be a part 3???P) to John York giving us some needed aftercare in Virtual VA and then Zach Cowman in Freaky, which is honestly just perfection. The next collab on the docket, it would seem, is Cavern Livingston, and I won't lie, I'm excited!

In between those we also see more audios that I feel offer even more of a wink-wink-nudge vibe. The Brat Test was a genius way to get fans to interact (hmm, that might be one bit of phrasing too far). His even more recent offering of "I Know, I Know..." addresses his reputation for the infidelity tag (one in which I am not personally super comfortable with, but to each their own) and he finishes the audio by saying something to the effect of, "He can have the best of you, I will happily take the worst of you." For those of us who struggle with listening to Quinn while in a relationship? That is a line that will do about 3 weeks worth of therapeutic healing and I thank him so much for it.

I will very honestly say that, prior to all of this change, I hadn't quite yet jumped on the TDOD train. I get why he's so popular, but my own journey is so roundabout, that I just hadn't quite figured him out yet. I look for things that are not just sexy, but also are helping me do some major healing of my own. I just wasn't sure where to begin with his work.

But once he opened up, it was a whole different ballgame because I'm very much the kind of person that only wants to play if everyone wants to play. And Eric essentially threw off the mask and said, "LET'S PLAY" and I was just hooked.

But the thing that really got to me? Was actually his episode of The Audiobook Club with John York. In it he is asked if he ever thought about taking a break from Quinn. And this sweet man literally teared up at the thought. He then goes on to say that he knows what he brings to the lives of so many of his fans. And what if, when someone is having just such a shitty week, they go to Quinn for some comfort and he's not there? He would feel terrible, like he let people.

Ok, so look. The realist in me would just respond with the fact there there is genuinely hours upon hours of content, that missing a drop or two is not the end of the world. But the romantic, the empathetic, part of me? Just feels so much (platonic) love for someone who really see what he's doing as not just building fantasies, but offering help to those who need it. And for that, and that alone, he will always have a fan in me. Because you don't need to look at Quinn like that. But it is that for so many of us and he just really gets it, you know? You don't abandon someone like that.

So, to conclude, I say that I am all in on Eric going all in! I am so excited to see what he has next in store for the world of Quinn, the world of audiobooks, just the world in general. Because it can only be something saucy and fun and the perfect escape we're looking for.

For anyone interested in responding, what are you looking forward to in the future from The Devil of Dublin? I would LOVE to see more collabs, particularly a part 3 to the London Calling series (especially if it ends as a "Why choose?" scenario, though I may spontaneously combust at the idea of both Tom AND Eric). Or perhaps another Devil's Pact, featuring Milo? But I would love to see Golden Retriever Milo in that scenario.

What about you? Let me know, the future is looking so much fun!

realized today that Ive been paying for a subscription for an audio erotica app that I deleted months ago

[amidst-wonderland]

— THE QUINN APP: RECOMMENDATIONS —

listen, right now is a pretty rotten time for creatives and as someone who has been getting involved with writing amsr scripts for a hot minute i just wanted to spread the love.

it's not a lot as i tend to be a gwa gal myself (i've got a few hang-ups about quinn's not-so-great interface / search engine and lack of plot variety but that's a lot to do with them not being around as long).

here are some of my favourites, bold is my super favourites. as always minors, dni and remember to heed caution. i haven't put tags but they are mandatory through the app so you won't miss any warnings.

— SINGLE —

love spell triangle: naudio ⭑ the kitchen counter: tom york ⭑ you've still got those stars in your eyes: this guy eli ⭑ hitched: zach cowman ⭑ one last time: sebastian r. teller ⭑ garter girl: emilie ⭑ from another land: autumn ivy ⭑ inside the moonlit garden: crow ⭑ at the in-laws: mairsyy ⭑ spin the bottle: cera ⭑ newlyweds: bad influence ⭑ good morning: cavern kingston ⭑ scarier than him: lonelyfans.

trying out the quinn app and let me tell you- zach cowman has such a boyfriend-coded voice

[senditcolton]

omg I listened to the quinn audio you suggested a while back and 😵‍💫🤤 do you have any more recommendations

I had no idea how much I've been waiting for an ask like this because... yeah, Quinn is on of the best apps I have ever stumbled upon.

So, spicy audio recommendations:

Anything by Zach Cowman (his username is just Cowman on Quinn). All of his audios are great, very focused on storytelling which is really cool to hear. Fav audios of his are "Revenge" & the "Basement Banter" series.

Sebastien R. Teller is also fantastic. His audios can scratch any itch because he can both play dom and sub. My favorite of his is "Dress Down" (which might tell you more about me than anything else)

Chance is a newer voice but his audios are wonderful. Personal favorite of his is "You Little Slut" (which once again tells you more about me than anything else).

Finally, if you are looking for more dominant/darker audios, scroll through Bad Influence's audios. His description is "an inked gutter-punk with too many fantasies" and boy howdy you will quickly discover that once listening.

Happy birthday Zach!

Not sure if I'll make this public

Honestly, I just wanted to get some of my thoughts on here about Quinn audios. I listen to Comments on Quinn on Youtube and QuinnYourThirst on IG and it just got me thinking about wanting to write about my own journey with this app.

I got started on Quinn a few months earlier, mostly because one of my favorite Tiktokers (shout out to Zach aka Cowman) joined up and I got kind of curious. When I finally was able to afford it, I signed up and, well. ADHD is a helluva thing. I honestly get so hyperfixated and it's been part of my daily rotation ever since.

Not to sound like a walking billboard, but besides being so sexy, it has been so incredibly healing. I can't speak for anyone's intentions on this app, but I feel like there is something so wonderful having someone not only speak to your desires for sensuality and sexuality, but also to the desire to be seen and honored for just...being. In a world where so many women and nb folk and men who don't fit the stereotype get glossed over and shoved aside, having a voice whisper in your ear that you're perfect and special just as you are while trying to emotionally and physically take you apart? Not to be crass, but Quinn found a such a gaping hole in the market for this kind of thing and is gamely trying to fill it.

Yeah, that still sounded crass. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ANYWAY, I look forward to figuring out this journey. Writing about my favorite creators and seeing where, if anywhere, it takes me.
