Belinda Blinked 1

**Belinda Blinked 1** (full title: **Belinda Blinked; 1 A modern story of sex, erotica and passion. How the sexiest sales girl in business earns her huge bonus by being the best at removing her high heels.**) is the first novella in the Belinda Blinked saga. It inspired the first series of *My Dad Wrote A Porno*.

## Blurb

*"Belinda Blumenthal gets exciting, solicited sex regularly, so regularly in fact she makes big bonuses from it. Based in London UK, Belinda works for Steeles Pots and Pans as their world wide Sales Director. Sexually supported by Giselle and Bella her head office colleagues, Belinda always gets the order when it comes down to the bare facts. The client base is large so Belinda has the whole world to fuck and boy does she get stuck into it. This is the first book in the Belinda Blinked series where she gets hired by Tony her Managing Director and then goes on to make some sales headway by bringing on board a large European customer, Peter Rouse, and makes initial inroads to the North American market through Jim Stirling. Read about the sexual conquests these men make and how the mysterious Duchess makes Belinda alive to the sexual fantasies of the hot riding set through supple black riding boots, jodhpurs and leather handled whips...."*

## My Dad Wrote A Porno (Series 1)

Series 1 of the podcast is where Rocky accelerated into fame and misfortune. In the words of Alice early on in the podcasting run, he very quickly became "almost as well-known as Mary Berry". The first series began in September 2015 and ended in December. Towards the end of the run, "Footnotes" episodes were introduced, which provide extra information about Rocky or the world of Belinda. A "Best Of" episode was released shortly before the premiere of Season 2 in July 2016.
