why the blog?

So, I write a sex column every week for The Valley Advocate called The V-Spot. It's a sex-positive column, written about topics of my own choosing or based off readers' questions, tackling everything from "why men should take it up the booty" to the ever-popular "how to find your G-spot". I try to be funny and light-hearted, while also being informative and direct, as these are aspects I believe are seriously lacking in mainstream sex/sexuality education. For more on the whys and hows of the column and why I write it, check out my introductory column "Sassy Sex Writer Seeks Eager Readers".

The issue is, I'm a small girl with a lot of big words and a medium-sized word count. When researching and writing my column, I come across a lot of interesting little what-nots that just can't make the editorial slash-and-burn. Think of it this way - the column is our primary relationship - it's reliable, fulfilling and tackles what's most important. The blog, on the other hand, is a tartly little one-night stand. A place of short-lived, extraneous yet tasty morsels like pictures, diagrams, links, and other titillating trivia related to the column's weekly topic.

And like the best one-night stands, I'll try to keep it short and bittersweet. I'll try to keep it casual. But most importantly, I'll try to hit the spot.
