    Join me on January 17, as I get kinky with the hosts and other guests at Kink On Tap: the smart sexuality netcast for the kinkily inclined.  I have no idea what we’ll be talking about, other than it will be kinky and fun.
    Tired of the pulp eroticization of sexuality? Annoyed by the self-aggrandizement of [...]

     Tony stared out over the moonlit snow.  The cold rail cut through layers of clothing.  He’d dressed to impress, not to be warm.  “This was such a rip.”  He bitched, to everyone and no one at once.
    “No shit!”  The only other occupant of the balcony took a drag of his cigarette.  Red [...]

    These recipes may not be the most healthy or the most sober.  Still, unless you have mean drunks in your family, these treats will get the kin in that mellow, maudlin mood to sing Christmas Carols and kiss each other.

    I was discussing with a beta reader today the flow of a narrative and whether a character (Nick O’Malley) would ever actually want to move to the city where the other character (Dt. Brandon Carr) resides.  Now, Nicky is from Vegas.  I don’t have to explain Las Vegas to anyone.  Even if you’ve never been [...]

    Little rough as it’s only been through one round of beta reading, but here’s an excerpt from the third Nicky & Brandon Novel:  All or Nothing.
