House Rules

To keep The Odalisque Letters welcoming, respectful, and safe for all readers, a few simple principles shape how this space works.

These aren’t rigid laws, more like gentle boundaries that help the community thrive.

1. Tone & Behaviour

• Kindness first.
Disagreement is fine. Disrespect isn’t.

• No shaming of kinks, identities, or relational structures.
Curiosity over judgement, always.

• Confidentiality matters.
Never share another reader’s stories or comments elsewhere.

2. Mature Themes

This space deals with adult topics, sexuality, power dynamics, emotional intensity, and personal experiences. Please engage with content mindfully and responsibly.

3. Membership & Access

Membership is handled entirely through Substack.

The tiers are:

Free – Explorer
• 2 full posts + 1 film review per month
• Previews of exclusive pieces
• Comment access

Paid – Inner Circle
• 7+ monthly posts
• Full archive
• Q&A, polls, deeper dives

Founder – VIP
• All benefits
• Private email access
• Priority questions & shaping future content

You can subscribe, unsubscribe, receive support, upgrade, or gift memberships through Substack at any time.

4. Comments & Interaction

Comments are moderated lightly but intentionally.
Content that is abusive, explicit without context, or boundary-breaking will be removed.

This is a space for thoughtful discussion, not explicit roleplay or DMs.

5. Contact & Communications

This is not a chat service, and replies aren’t guaranteed.
Priority goes to:

  1. Creating new content
  2. Maintaining a safe community
  3. Supporting paid members where possible

Ways to reach out:
• General inquiries via the Contact page
• Suggestions via the Suggestion Box
• Media/collabs via the Collaboration form
• VIP members via their dedicated address

6. Image Ethics

Images are sourced responsibly from:

Licensed stock libraries
AI-generated artworks
Editorial image providers (e.g., Alamy) for Film Vault
Custom pieces where appropriate

All rights remain with their respective creators.

No explicit real-person content is ever used.

7. A Final Note

Think of this as a shared space, a little like a quiet salon or the corner table at the Mad Hatter’s tea party.

Be curious, be respectful, and, most importantly, enjoy the journey.

Stay curious,
