Biography

I've been a freelance writer since 1989. I write books, essays, movie reviews, porn and sex toy reviews, other reviews, features, interviews, fiction (mostly erotica), irate letters to the editor, song parodies, and assorted commercial copy.

I am currently editing a new annual anthology, "Best Erotic Comics," the first volume of which is scheduled for publication in November 2007.

Among other things, I'm the author of "Bending," an erotic novella that's part of the three-novella collection "Three Kinds of Asking For It," edited by Susie Bright for Simon & Schuster. I'm also the editor of "Paying For It: A Guide by Sex Workers for Their Clients," a book of advice for sex work customers, written by sex workers and former sex workers, published by Greenery Press.

Apart from my books, my best-known pieces of writing are probably "Are We Having Sex Now or What?" and "Comforting Thoughts About Death That Have Nothing do Do With God."

I live in San Francisco with my wife, Ingrid.
