Lately I’ve been describing myself as a “vanilla” creator, and I can feel the apology in the description. “You might find my work a bit boring,” I’m implying, “but that’s what I do.” I’d like to take that back. I have been around the erotic audio and Lit community for a while now. In that…

“You’re so pretty,” my friend said to me. It was one of those nights you have with friends where everyone drinks a lot and the conversation turns to how much you all love each other. “You should have seen her 10 years ago,” another friend said. I laughed at him, but I am a slow…

I don’t typically explain the thought process behind my stories, but for some reason I feel compelled to do so with my latest. It’s called “Dreaming of You.” Last year, I bought a small home built in 1950. The previous owner had lived there for 50+ years, had raised a family there, and then sold…

I’ve written and spoken a lot about my reasons for writing and recording, and how I try not to pay attention to the metrics involved to measure success for myself. I have managed to be satisfied with my creative journey, for the most part, so far. Recently, I had an experience that really shook my…

I should be writing something else right now, but my phone has prompted me to clean out my photos – noting that the number of screenshots is in the thousands – so I started to delete some things. Doing so was like opening a time capsule of the last few years of my life. I…

She sits down with her coffee in the morning and makes a list. Weed garden, do dishes, get groceries, get your shit together, the list says. The list represents all of the things she will do when she is fully recovered. When she tells you it has been a hard couple of years, she is…

It’s a major tenet of Buddhism, as I understand it, that suffering is caused by resistance. Accept what is happening to and around you, and move in strength from there. So often your brain tells you “No, it can’t be true that X is happening,” when in fact, X is very much happening. X is…

I’m a spicy creator and I’m used to talking about and thinking about sex. But it wasn’t always that way. As the child of Boomer parents, I grew up knowing what sex was, but having very few conversations with my parents about it. My dad was an early adopter, so had to own a Laserdisk…
