Blog postI made matzo ball soup for the first time. It was inspired by a “potzo” ball soup recipe on a cannabis site. As it turned out, my soup was as delicious as the best Montréal Jewish deli, the most fragrant Brooklyn memory. Really! I was so happy and surprised. I’ll...

Blog postDid you know your grandmother Agnes at all? No, she’s a bit of a mystery. She died so young. It wasn’t until my own mother was dying, and cried out in the night for HER grandma, that I realized… huh, mommy didn’t know her mommy either. Was there an inheritance?...

Blog postI’m not naive about my working class Catholic upbringing in the 60s. The parishes had terrible secrets. There were John Bircher lunatics running the Catholic school I attended. We were accustomed to corporal punishment of the most sadistic kind, and there was terrible shaming of the girls and boys for...

Blog postToday, I read a WSJ report on the twenty-first century epidemic of Boomer generation singletons (1946-1964). The reporter submitted a rigorous argument as to why elder isolation is no joke. Is loneliness different for the Boomers? — or is it just another expression of their privileged malaise? I’m at the...

Blog post“Have you seen the hair conditioner?” No one answered me. “Never mind. I found it.” I couldn’t tell if everyone had left our motel room, or if I was finally on the receiving end of a well-deserved silent treatment. I was a bore and a bitch and all I did...

Blog postLove and Fatigue in America, by Roger King
Roger King was an English professor, who, filled with a bit of hubris, accepted a prestigious appointment in the US, and got ready to start what he thought would be his new sex and romance-filled, ego-stoking adventure.
To his shock, his health crashed, and no one could explain what the hell had happened to him. He'd developed chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or ME.
Love and Fatigue in America is his fictionaliz -

Blog postWhen I first brought Ellora's Cave novels to Audible— and their own singular brand of explicit romance, the first task at hand was particularly daunting. Who would bring these books to life?
We needed to cast actors with moxie, passion, and the chops to narrate erotic romance without any inhibitions.
After multiple auditions and heart-to-heart interviews: we found them. I've asked my favorite romance VO's (as we call stars in the audiobook biz) to tell us something -

Flasher: A Memoir, by Tsaurah Litzky
I have published Tsaurah Litzky more often than any other author I've ever worked with--- and after 600 authors and 20 anthologies and countless magazines... that's saying something.
Now Tsaurah is ready to dish the real dirt on her real New York bohemian life in her poetic memoir, Flasher.
Tsaurah is a poet, a revolutionary, and a hippie chick; an intellectual and an educator; and a sex-positive proponent of -

"Forgive me, but Greg Boyd is like Kafka and Grimm wrapped up in one, with a better sense of humor."

Horny: Stories Selected and New, by Greg Boyd
When people ask me, "Who's your favorite writer few others have ever heard of?"-- I say Greg Boyd.
I discovered his work through Harold Jaffe's Fiction International in San Diego in 1992. When I was asked to do the first Best American Erotica s -

Blog postPublic Enemy: Memoirs of an American Dissident, by Bill Ayers
Bill Ayers got caught in the crossfire of the 2008 presidential election during a Clinton--Obama primary debate. While he and his graduate students watched from his living room, moderator George Stephanopoulos all but accused Obama of conspiring with domestic terrorists—him.
Ayers describes the night of the debate in his introduction as having the “sudden sense that this cartoon character, Bill -

Blog postValencia, by Michelle Tea
"I can't think of anyone who has done a better job telling the story of the dark, but enticing queer-addict world. This is one of those books I would be willing to read several times. It's the diamond on my shelf."
--Rhiannon "nobodysgrrl"
This rent girl memoir is dangerous. Unrepentantly sexy. If Scott Fitzgerald was a dyke and lived in the Mission before Google ate its soul.
Michelle Tea has been a par -

Chain Saw Confidential: How We Made the World's Most Notorious Horror Movie, by Gunnar Hansen
The urban legends that swirl around the film Texas Chainsaw Massacre, that it was based on real events; that there were violent, drug-fueled orgies on set; that it was a “snuff” film; are far nuttier than the real deal. And yet—even the most outlandish rumors have kernels of truth in them.
Gunnar Hansen sets out to give us the real dope—and an eye-opening lesson in f -

The Testosterone Files, by Max W. Valerio
Max Wolf Valerio gives a poetic, explosive reading of his own female-to-male gender-transition memoir.
His story comes across as a thing of wonder.
With an adventurer's spirit, Max writes of actually living out his childhood fantasies, of going covertly behind enemy lines, of donating his body to science. Not a tale of feeling lost and in the wrong body, but of being a revolutionary and an explorer finding alternat
