Why A Blog?

I suppose I should start at the beginning...

Billions of years ago, as the earth shook violently from the activities of volcanos and the shifting of tectonic plates, as the skies were filled with noxious gasses and clouds of nitrogen and bolts of lightning and meteors fell from the heavens, in a tiny pool of water, microscopic ancestors of the first amino acids were startin' something funky...

Okay, that's too far back.

Sometime during the Clinton Administration, I got involved in a group called the Erotica Readers And Writers' Association, which is a kick-ass website and an even more kick-ass email group. About six years ago, I gave vent in an email to something that was bugging me, (Republican hypocrisy, most likely), and the group's administrator, Adrienne, asked me to turn my rants into a monthly column for the website. I called it, "All Worked Up," and I still contribute to this day. It's tons of fun. I get to give vent to whatever bugs me, as long as some element of the world's sexual state of affairs is a topic. Marriage equality, the war on porn, political sex scandals, whatever. It's a gas.

However, as the years have passed, it's come to my attention that there's a lot more going on about which to rant than just sex. As much as I enjoy teeing off on matters sexual, and as much as I plan to continue doing so in my ERWA column, I've decided to branch out.

What else is there to get All Worked Up about?

I'm glad you asked...
