Coming soon: appearance at the Erotic Literary Salon

Philadelphia's Erotic Literary Salon, organized by the terrific Susana Mayer, keeps growing. I've accompanied Jeremy there twice, but for the first time I'll be reading too--and talking about some of the challenges of being an infrequent writer who's always still a beginner. We both read at Essensuality , but this is the first time we're billed as a couple, which is exciting. Plus I'll have a copy of Gotta Have It to give away!

My first reading

Jeremy's going to be featured at Saturday's Essensuality event, and I nerved myself up to ask for an open mike slot. So I'll be reading from my Gotta Have It story. I've done public performances and readings before, but never erotica. I know Jeremy's piece will be a lot of fun, because I've gotten to see it "in workshop"--and my goal is to enjoy myself with mine too!

Gotta Have It book trailer and book!

Wow, what a privilege to be a part of Rachel Kramer Bussel's new anthology with Cleis! A particularly exciting week: I got to be in the fantastic book trailer which came out Monday, and yesterday I ran into the house with two packages--one for me and one for Jeremy--holding the actual book. It's a wonderful shape and size. My first time between book covers. I'm still flying high!

So cool to share the screen not only with Jeremy and Rachel, but also friends like Donna, Emerald, and Shanna!
