Blurb from Kirkus Reviews
"Funny as hell ... dialogue is sharp and the narrative witty ... adult females may delight in discovering what certain men really think and feel about women, in and out of bed."
Radio Interview
I will be on the Dereck & Kay radio show this Sunday (April 14th) at 4:25pm PST discussing my novel. Check it out if you can. http://bit.ly/120HQ2m
A few words about the book
The Hobbyist is a cautionary tale and not for the faint of heart. Though there is much ado about sex in this story, it is not, as one reviewer noted, "a sexy book." Many readers who fancy erotica or romance novels are not likely to embrace the material. Whereas the previously mentioned genres deal primarily with transgressive fantasies, The Hobbyist – though a novel – is based on a true story. I also want to caution those expecting a book on recovery. The frank, sexual content could well serve as stimulus to acting out.
It is not my intention to dissuade anyone from buying the book, but since this book deals with frequent acts of wanton sex, it could mislead potential readers about the true nature of the book's content, and possibly lead to disappointment. I would be remiss if I didn’t note this distinction.
