erotica reading this thursday 7pm KGB Bar NYC

[Corey Alexander]

Hello,

 

Baby it's cold outside. Come heat it up at my erotica reading on Thursday. You know you want to. 

 

My story, “How He Likes it” appears in Best Lesbian Erotica 2012, which is now out and available, and recommended in Autostraddle's gifting guide. I will be reading from that story at Drunken Careening Writers  as part of the annual Best Lesbian Erotica reading.  Copies of the book will be on sale. Contributors from near and far are congregating on our little corner of the East Village to read from their work, including this year’s Guest Editor, the lovely & talented Sinclair Sexmith.  You can read the introduction, written by Sinclair Sexsmith, on her blog (she refers to me as one of her favorite writers!).

 

The reading is on Thursday, December 15 at 7pm at KGB Bar (85 E. 4th St., NYC).  Get there early for a seat...its a small venue.

Here is an excerpt from the story I will be reading:

 He likes it when I beg. Me begging is not just how he likes it, it’s how I need it. I ache to bring my raw dripping need to him, to offer it up to him, spill it into his lap. That’s exactly where he wanted me that night. In his lap, aching with need. He wanted to watch me writhe with it, wanted to savor the sight of me begging.

 

Sir knew me from the start, knew things about me that I had not fully seen. He was a mirror to my power and grace, showing me how beautiful I was in his eyes, how gorgeous my pain was, how delicious my tears, how very much my desire moved him. That is the best a lover can offer us, to really see us, and celebrate what they see. So often I had been told I was too much, too loud, too smart for my own good, took up too much space, too needy, too sexual. Sir had other things to say about my hunger, my desire, my size, my power. My reflection in his eyes told me I did not need to hide. That I could not possibly be too much for him. It scared me every time, felt risky every time, and it was exactly what I wanted.

 

I had not met Dexter before that night. Christian had told me about him. The mentor who had taught my Sir everything he knew about leather; the first trans man top he ever met. They had topped together, it was part of learning. But this was different. I was the first girl that my Sir was going to offer to Dexter after 7 years of estrangement.

 

In addition, my story, "Ready", which originally appeared in the anthology Biker Boys, is printed in the new anthology Coming Together: In Flux, a benefit for the Woodhull Freedom Foundation. Hot Daddies: Gay Erotic Fiction, which contains my story “It’s My Job” was released this fall. In addition, several collections of erotica containing my work have recently come out:  Brief Encounters: 69 Hot Gay Shorts, contains my story “This Boy”; In Plain View: Hot Public Erotica, contains my story “Kneeling for Him”; Bondage By The Bay: Tales of BDSM In San Francisco, which contains two of my stories (“Nervous Boy” and “Kneeling for Him”) recently came out in e-book form. My work has been published in over 20 collections, including: Men at Noon, Monsters at Midnight, Backdraft, Hurts So Good, Best Women's Erotica 08 & 09, Leathermen, Frenzy, Daddies, Men on the Edge, Cruising for Bad Boys, Pleasure Bound, SexTime: Erotic Stories of Time Travel, Best SM Erotica 2 & 3, and I Like to Watch.  It will also appear in the upcoming anthologies Say Please: A Lesbian BDSM anthology, and Nice Butt: Gay Anal Eroticism.  

 

I hope to see you this Thursday for my reading!
