Books I Read: The Driver's Seat
I decided to read Muriel Spark’s The Driver’s Seat based on Womb House Books excellent Book Domme’s recommendation. This novella is absolutely superb, curiously erotic, and astonishingly demented. Read it.

Porn Blind Graphic
For “Porn Blind,” my in-progress, ten-part, 10,000-word series about what I learned about the adult movie industry and myself over the last 30 years, I created this title graphic that I use at the top of every installment of the series. The background is a photo I took on an adult movie set, and I added the text using Canva.
