From their release:

Three years ago, acclaimed author and editor Rachel Kramer Bussel (Caught Looking, He's on Top, Naughty Spanking Stores from A to Z 1 and 2) launched an innovative monthly reading series in New York that encouraged the city's best writers to share intimate and humorous tales about sex. And now, In the Flesh is set to make its West Coast debut on May 29th!

In the Flesh: L.A. will be hosted and curated by acclaimed author and writer Carly Milne (Sexography, Hooking Up, Naked Ambition.) and held the last Thursday of every month at Freddy and Eddy, located at 12613 Venice Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90066.

The theme for May is Survival, as interpreted by readers Willam Belli (Nip/Tuck, Out), Rachel Kramer Bussel (Dirty Girls), Dana Harris (Variety.com, Naked Ambition), Maxim Jakubowski (Confessions of a Romantic Pornographer), Stan Kent (Sex and Shoes) and Shana Ting Lipton (L.A. Times, BlackBook.)

Complimentary cookies and cupcakes from Schmerty's will be served. The event is free, but a suggested $10 door fee will be donated to the Rape and Incest National Network.

FBLA asked the hostess Milne if she thinks the West Coast is ready for this series. "Why shouldn't it be? It's the epicenter of porn." Stated Milne.

Touche.
