happy happy happy halloween

My favorite holiday! Gosh, being spanked with a lollipop looks fun! Two sexy Halloween babe galleries — here’s the lollipop gallery (via Sex Blog Roundup @ Fleshbot); here’s a nasty messy sexy gothy pumpkin gallery (thanks, A). Here are some Halloweeny links, some with a heavy accent on the *weeny* part…

* Edward Penishands still lives — spotted in Upper Haight and shot with my Helio; still “one of the greatest adult films of all time.” Um, riiiight. That chick *so* looks like Winona.

* Here’s a nice Clockwork Orange babe gallery.

* The LA Times thinks Halloween is A Holiday For Sluttiness. Last time I checked, LA was like Halloween every day. Mojo sent me the link, saying, “It’s the classic “OMG! Halloween is teh sexy!” style column, but I feel it goes way beyond the usual asshattery and deep into mysogyny. It’s completely gross, and I’m not sure why I’m emailing it to you except to share my outrage.”

* Breaking: Halloween = sluts (via). Again. So what am I gonna do with my slutty Easter costume *now*?

* Zombie porn comics: XXXombies by Rick Remender looks fun. And there’s always the gruesome, graphic (really really gross) Porn of the Dead stills gallery.

* Unlike last weekend, Halloween in my neighborhood here in San Francisco is not very sexy right now. Some people might protest.

* In New York, Halloween must be like herding cats — like in this awesome kitty obstacle course video.

* After watching that video and then seeing Zoey Zane’s Halloween Striptease gallery with her weird cyber-KKK TinMan outfit, I might have to clear my head with the kittens a few more times. Then again, I do have Lust for a Vampire and NightWatch to sink my teeth into later, so I think I’ll be able to rinse my brain fairly well.

* Another soothing alternative: just.because’s monsters, melons, pirates and sailors, oh my! gallery @ Flickr. Sweet!

* Then, before I retire into my coffin at dawn, I’ll read from my much-loved copy of the ultra-fabulous The Deluxe Transitive Vampire: The Ultimate Handbook of Grammar for the Innocent, the Eager, and the Doomed. It was a spectacular birthday present (thank you, K!), and contains gems like:

Subjective Complement:
A subjective complement comes hot on the heels of a linking verb to explain or identify the subject. If the subjective compliment is a noun, it is called a “predicate noun.” Examples:

That mound of dirt is her bedfellow.
You will be my nemesis.
Thinking is not her forte.
Your rapture is my anguish.
This harangue is my relief.

Update: Doh! How could I leave out Cory Silverberg’s *excellent* Halloween Sex Tips!? Or — Dan Savage’s fresh, great advice for superhero sex fetish querants!

creatures of the night audioWow — open source sex #60 — and it’s hot Halloween erotica. It’s a delicious sample chapter from my 13-chapter (14 files) Halloween erotica audiobook for $7 at digitapub.com, Creatures of the Night Audiobook (also in many multi-device ebook flavors). In the podcast: KC’s “Cops and Robbers”, a woman mistakenly dresses as a famous 70s hamburger-stealing character at a costume party, only to find herself up against a lawman who takes ‘search and seizure’ quite seriously. Includes some intense cuffing and spanking — quite delicious. Better than a burger. Enjoy! I’m so proud of all the authors in the collection!

Click here for the podcast post; click here to download the MP3.

Phew — it’s 4am on October 30; I can’t believe I read and completed the audiobook. It’s a sizzling collection of nasty, sweet, hilarious, spooky and sometimes rather dark explicit erotica — 14 DRM-free MP3′s for $7. Read the sales copy after the jump — or just click here to buy it, enjoy it, share it…

The day of Halloween might be best celebrated at home for us San Franciscans — especially those of us in the Castro. Most merchants I’ve been chatting with over the past week have been saying they’re all renting movies and ordering in. Typically, it’s like our version of Mardi Gras, but sadly, every year we get more violence. It’s regular drunken crowd violence, as many people are just rowdy tourists (often not in costume) to just be obnoxious in the street. Some merchants have expressed sadness; saying it used to be a community street party. But last year there were shootings, so the police are closing off my neighborhood at like 6pm — for reals.

But saturday night I decided last-minute to have a few friends over (for many cocktails) and we went out for some very old-school Castro Halloween festivities. Lots of costumes, smiles (plenty of polite and smiling police officers, even) and a really great crowd were all out in outrageous outfits. And just plain hot outfits.

Scott has a great photo post about it here. Great, great, great sets of “secret” Castro Halloween:

I was lucky to be with a very loving ‘brat pack‘ of photographers; we went out, split up keys to my house and met back at the Blogger Bungalow throughout the evening. It was a blast! Our out of town guest this time was my dear friend Steve Diet Goedde (omg, we go back almost ten years).

I was lucky to be with so much loving, bratty, sweet family. It’s been a rough year for everyone, and we all just had grown-up fun like a bunch of kids. It’s so extreme that it’s been such a painful year, but I’ve never been so happy.


Photo “Morticia and Gomez” by Scott Beale/Laughing Squid.

My close friend Chriso topped every costume in the Castro — his “Senator Craig” mobile toilet stall had him stopping and showing his “wide stance” every ten feet to adoring and cackling fans and queens alike, even some people wanted to “sign” his stall wall. Almost every SFPD officer we saw while walking through the gold-glitter fairy and uber-queeny throngs grinned hugely at the Senator, and laughingly complimented his costume! Even the dreaded ‘blue screen of death’ made an appearance on my doorstep. So awesome.

* An aside, I had no idea how much I look like my own painting of Leila Waddell.

vintagecuties.jpgA while back, Libido Films sent me a screener copy of their film Trial Run for review, and a possible DVD-cover quote. Trial Run sounds fun in theory and possible practice — in it, a woman places a personal ad, combs through to find a guy that might be fun, and then her sexy redhead pro-domme friend takes the guy on a “trial run” while our heroine watches; then a final scene where it looks like he’s no longer “in beta”. Sadly I wasn’t in a workspace where I had time to meet their deadline, so the film went on my “must watch” shelf. That’s right next to the “sweet chocolaty jeezuz please never make me watch” shelf. Tonight I cruised over to their site to check out what their sample trailers look like, intending to gather my review post materials, and noticed a number of fun freebies. They have neat little (okay the screens are *too* little, but still) page of trailers for all of their porn films — and I must add that all of their films are non-mainstream, with eager amateurs and quite atmospheric. There’s a little too much time for credits, but hey — they’re indy, so I applaud nonetheless. And I see they recently got their blog on, with original articles, cool.

But I also discovered that you can watch shorts of the hotter scenes from each of their films (or buy/download the individual scenes cheap) — and I especially enjoyed their vintage porn video page, with very sexy samplers from 1915 like A Free Ride.

I’ll let you know how Trial Run is in a day or two; then I’ll see what kind of tests I can perform at home. *Such* a good idea…

* Yay, it’s up! With much help from my friends, here’s my handpicked Halloween erotic ebook, in one multi-format .zip. (If you purchased my non-fiction “how to kiss” and want another text format please email me with your purchase # and I’ll send you all formats in a .zip — duh, why didn’t I think of that?) This 13-chapter collection is one of my very favorites; see what happens when I pick erotica freely for its punk-sexy/fun-gothiness! I’m going to try and have the audiobook up ASAP… There’s lots of couples getting quite kinky with costumes and role-play, at least one girl jacking off with Tim Curry, a haunting BDSM promise (or dare) between a couple, girl-girl visitations from beyond and… at least 13 encounters I think are hot and inspiring. (Apols to my gay boyfriends; no boy-on-boy in this one.) There are many stories from Thomas Roche: he’s the king of the goth erotica genre, that’s why… Here’s the “sales” text:

Creatures of the Night, edited by best-selling editor Violet Blue (from the award-winning Best Women’s Erotica series) brings to light 13 DRM-free stories of Halloween adventures with couples who make the most of the season’s offerings. Graveyard trysts, encounters with lesbian ghosts, couples who meet in San Francisco’s Castro district, torn Bauhaus t-shirts, intense explicit sex of many flavors, soundtracks from Rocky Horror, and much more make this collection the most exciting goth-noir-playful-dark inspiration yet. Authors include Alison Tyler, Thomas Roche, Xavier Acton, Elizabeth Colvin and other exciting writers. Creatures of the Night is $7 worth of modern erotica in a multi-format .zip, freely shareable and made especially for Palm, iPhone, iPod Touch, Blackberry, your computer, or any text reading device you prefer.

(The .pdf is especially for the iPhone/Touch, with some easter egg fun.)

It came up in discussion at SFSI training last weekend. For separate talks to students, people with different sexual orientations come and talk and answer questions about their orientation. There was a scheduling kerfluff: the straight guy flaked, the gay guy didn’t show (it was a mixup), but the bisexual man swooped in, gave a fantastic talk and was great. I was like, OMG: in a city full of gay men, you have no gay rep, I could almost literally pull a card-carrying straight boy out of my back pocket for you — but the most mystical, mysterious and invisible creature of all, the bisexual male, showed up and spoke for you. I said, “That’s like having a fucking unicorn appear.”

To which Thomas replied, “You’re seen Planet Unicorn, right?”

Not sex-related (by strict definition, anyway), but... if you haven't seen it yet, Galacticast's "Starfleet Academy" is one of my favorite episodes to date. Okay, maybe I'm biased -- especially to see one of my closest friends, Sean Bonner make a cameo as Wil Wheaton! It's really kind of dirty […]
