  • NEVER TAKE YOUR EX TO YOUR NEXT

    August 6, 2009

    • Our defenses reflect our wounds but no person can heal those wounds. They can give us love, innocently and sincerely, but if we're already convinced that people cannot be trusted - if that's the decision we've made - then our minds will construe whatever someone's behavior is, as evidence that our previously drawn conclusion was correct." - unknown When hearts are broken in love and ...
  • Mortals & Vampires

    August 5, 2009

    • Based on recent focus of vampire/human love affairs in both literature, movies, and television it seems normal for humans to fall in love with vampires and for the undead to rise heroically to their siren call.Or is it the other way around? Each one offers the other what no one of their own kind can. For the vampire, the human is a succulent swamp of scent, taste, warmth and fluid breath. But ...

That means under 17 is not permitted without a parent. If you are ...
  • What Women Want from Reading

    July 12, 2009

    • It took me a long time to feel I was in a position to write fiction of a more rounded type (previously I did snappy, plot driven short stories inspired by Raold Dahl), until my mid thirties in fact. And only after my mother had died. I miss her every day, but losing her freed my imagination, and also made it possible for me to write about sex.Which is a good thing, as reading about sex is all the ...
  • The East, The West, And Sex: Same Schpiel, Different Day

    June 23, 2009

    • As an "eastern" woman who has lived nearly half her life in the "west," I can admit to a personal interests in debates that tackle issues of gender, race, colonialist history and sex. After all it is an immensely rich vein to mine for political, social, emotional narratives. So I was obviously intrigued by a book review emailed to me about Richard Bernstein's The East, The ...
  • All Bets Are Off: Breaking Ground Until The Bitter End

    June 12, 2009

    • If you watched Guiding Light on June 10, 2009, you didn't just watch Olivia Spencer walk into a store and shop for a vibrator. You watched a television milestone.Think about it - when was the last time you turned on the television at 3pm, and watched the better part of an hour devoted to a female character's sexual frustration?

  • The Museum of Sex--strange and murky edges between writing and promotion

    June 1, 2009

    • I read a story from The Dictionary of Dirty Words at the Museum of Sex in New York City.  It seemed redundant to read such a story at the Museum of Sex, sort of like gilding the lily. But I couldn’t say that because, at The Museum of Sex, everything reverberated with double-entendres and I couldn’t  even say “hello” or “good-bye” without images of penetration and withdrawal.  So ...
  • Fulfilling THE THIRD WISH

    June 1, 2009

    • Today The Third Wish, my first paranormal romance for Sapphire Blue Publishing, was released...with excitement and trepidation on my part.  Why, you ask? Well, yes, it's the sex.  This is an erotic romance so, of course, there's sex in it.  I actually overlooked the stimulating impact of the level and amount of sex because I've been so caught up in the edits, and the galleys, and, well, ...
