Writing Out / Written Punishments
A classical means of punishment, reinforcing discipline and getting him to focus on the issues at hand.
Includes benefit of being a "time out" whilst occupying the mind and the hand. Specific tasks can be set to answer very specific needs. It is important rituals are used if this becomes a regular punishment. |

writing punishment fundamentals
Materials
All that is really needed is a pen and some paper but that is to understate the importance of having the right equipment.
Paper
The paper is best if it has a wide ruled line printed on it. This helps with neatness and a uniform product.
Loose leaf or note book are both useful but a good size like A4 is recommended.
Pens
All writing should be done in indelible pen so that mistakes can not be hidden.
Fountain pen is favoured by many as it has a traditional feel and there is the extra ritualistic element to it.
Refillable pens have an advantage over cartridges as they , again, include more ritual. Also empty ink bottles should be washed out and presented with the next output. These empty bottles are considered by some to be of great significance showing effort.
Dip pens can also be used to slow down a writing project. They also bring a flexibility of coloured inks that are hard to obtain for regular fountain pens.
Assigning a task
Unless a writing project is given out to be done immediately, a routine should be established so that that writing projects follow a pattern.
Most tasks are given by the task being written on the top of a page by the Wife and the book, or paper placed, in place. The husband then has a routine to check that place for new punishments periodically.
The task deadline and any other restrictions to be applied should be noted as well.
These should include any specifics about writing conditions, colour or indeed anything specifically required.
Receiving the output
The work that results can be treated in many ways.
An important aspect is whether You chose to read them or just dismiss them.
Reading them, and possibly marking them for correctness, in front of him will add to Your superiority. It is suggested that he hands them in some formal way and watches as You mark them from a subordinate position. he could kneel or sit meekly.
Dismissing them unread though, makes the task seem even more pointless and this emphasises his punishment more.
What to do with the output
The lines can be kept or destroyed.
Keeping them allows for a record and also means You have the threat that You can share them with others as evidence of his poor behaviour.
If they are to be kept using notebooks is more satisfactory than loose leaf paper.
Others
The husband may always refer to himself using a lower case i, and to the wife with an upper case W, and to You with an upper case Y.
