Before we get started today, I want to remind you that today is National Coming Out Day! Today thousands of us gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people and our allies celebrate being out and proud; with workshops, speak-outs, rallies and other events in towns and on campuses all over the world.

But, if you didn’t guess it was Polly, then that tells me you may have missed Part 1 of our insightful conversation. Ya know If ya snooze ya lose! Actually, that’s not completely true, because all of my podcast are archived here on my site. Use the search function in the header, type in Podcast #235 and Voilà. Just remember to include the #sign when you do your search.

Polly and I discuss:

  • The Fold — a sci-fi burlesque webseries;
  • With One Eye Open;
  • Humor in erotica, a very subversive act;
  • How humor humanizes;
  • Her creative process;
  • The arc of a humorous story;
  • Encouraging other erotic authors to exercise their humor muscles;
