So, barring any last minute editorial changes of mind, it looks like an essay I wrote for Newsweek, "Dear John," which was based on my experiences editing Letters from Johns, will appear in Best Sex Writing 2009. The anthology was edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel, selected and introduced by Brian Alexander, who writes the "Sexploration" column for MSNBC.com, and published by Cleis Press. The release date is January 2009, although you can pre-order it now if you just cannot wait. Another essay I wrote, "A Porn Valley Story," appeared in Best Sex Writing 2006. It's always nice, I've found, to be in the Best Sex Writing anthologies, because it's always nice to be deemed one of the best at what you do, even if that in past years entailed dodging cum puddles on bukkake shoot floors.
