Reminder: My Sucky Valentine!

Attention fence-sitters:

I am debuting a new piece for this performance, bitchez! So you know you want to be there!


Love sex hate romance, anyone? Now in its 15th year, erotica/horror writer Thomas Roche's annual performance event My Sucky Valentine constitutes a wholesale assault on Love American Style, bringing bitter Valentine's Day rebels the literary abuse they crave! Expect sordid tales of love gone wrong, sex gone bad, romance gone to hell!

Couples, triads, singles, puppy piles, swapping couples, sex tribes, hateful love triangles, inveterate masturbators and flat-out wankers -- all are welcome, and equally doomed, at My Sucky Valentine!

Plus raffles, prizes, and of course heartache-soothing, bad-for-you, who-cares-if-I'm-going-to-seed-motherfucker-at-least-I'm-not-a-loser refreshments!

Ho Art

One of the things I came home with yesterday was a piece of religious art that used to hang in my grandparents' bathroom. I may have to scan it in so you can get the full effect. We call it "the ho art," because it's a pencil of Mary Magdalene weeping at the feet of Jesus, and it's titled "Forgiven." So D/S! I am not kidding! And it's actually really beautiful, very artistically rendered, with a lot of feeling. And so wrong. And doubly wrong that I should have it. I am ashamed and delighted to possess this piece. I have no idea what to do with it, but it's mine now...
