In the winter of 2014, writer and sex worker Charlotte Shane sent out her confessional letter to a small but devoted mailing list. In the months that followed, readership grew to over 5,000 subscribers who followed her candid, unstinting, sometimes heartbreaking meditations. Word spread quickly, garnering the project recognition from outlets such as The Washington Post and NPR. This intimate investigation is one young woman's best attempt at understanding her own rich, conflicted life, and the forces that act upon it. The collection is a thoughtful serial memoir about love, sex, money, and identity-how those forces can break us, and how they can make us whole again.

In many ways, it is everything: my source of amusement and diversion, my recreation, my sex, my identity, the most illuminating form of engagement, the most heightened form of contact. . . In this lyric, meditative collection, Charlotte Shane details five challenging and isolating years of her sex work career with sensitivity and intelligence. Against a backdrop of some of the 21st century's most significant events-terrorist attacks, the recession-she navigates her exoticized and stigmatized work while preoccupied with perennial concerns: the meaning of intimacy, fidelity, love, and integrity. Here, abortion, sexual connection, and the ancient antagonism between men and women are starkly, rigorously examined to yield penetrating insight. N.B. is a work of uncommon honesty and sincerity that revitalizes a topic much discussed yet rarely understood. Originally available online under the title "Nightmare Brunette," these fiercely loved entries have been condensed and edited to remain as powerful as they were in their earlier incarnation.

In the near future, Oakland is haunted by natural disaster and political collapse. When k realizes that she has infected her girlfriend, bea, with a disease, she loses herself in a masochistic quest for atonement, leaving bea to contend with her fears about an increasingly precarious world by herself. Literary and adventurous, lyrical yet anchored, Davey Davis' work explores the meanings of responsibility, romantic love, and queer resistance in a late-capitalist hellscape where futurity is always in question. Davey Davis writes about culture, sexuality, technology, and genderqueer embodiment. Occasionally, they also write fiction. Their short story "Difficult Women" received Honorable Mention for Glimmer Train's 2014 Short Story Award for New Writers. They live in Berkeley, California
