Susannah Breslin, the L.A. writer of the late Reverse Cowgirl blog, is out with You’re a Bad Man, Aren’t You?, billed as "a short story collection of sordidly sexual tales," from Portland micro-publisher Future Tense Books. She writes for L.A. Innuendo, whose editor Richard Rushfield provides the book's blurb.
"Susannah Breslin is the Dorothy Parker of post-millennial sexual exploratory writing...She is literature’s dominatrix, with a heart where her whip should be."
Breslin's bio says she is "at work on a Dante’s Inferno-meets-'Boogie Nights' semi-autobiographical novel, If Only These Hands Could Talk, based on her experiences loitering around Porn Valley." It adds that she is 6'2".
Added 10 p.m.: Breslin also has a piece in the new issue of Arthur.
You may try rolling over the links with your cursor without clicking on them, just to see them pop up in the lower left corner of your browser window, and see if that permits you to feel less angst.
I wonder how tall Jay Rosen is.

Hey this is utterly off topic (& please feel free to delete or move) but I just wanted to point out that Jay Rosen's column on PressThink has the worst example I've ever seen today of that blogger phenomenon of the unexplained link (which I was bitching about recently). It can be found here: http://journalism.nyu.edu/pubzone/weblogs/pressthink/2003/10/24/bias_questions.html
Actually Rosen pushes the technique so over the top that it's kind of funny.
