This blog is devoted to my unpublished fiction novel, “Monogamy Sucks,” an exploration of a Long Beach, California man’s mid-thirties lust crisis and his ensuing bizarre, but intriguing journey into the world of swinging and alternative sex.
Think of this work as an edgy male version of "Sex in the City" written from the point of view of an inept, inexperienced swinger. Except my novel's protagonist Jake Dalmas is not interested in finding love, but instead is obsessed with finding great sex with no strings, no commitments, no relationship bullshit, and most of all -- no monogamy.
This novel is especially timely considering the recent spate of public sex scandals, including golfer Tiger Woods, TV personality Jesse James, and too many other celebrities and politicians to mention here.
I have been working on my novel off and on for the past 12 years and have tried to stay true to my experiences and the experiences of those I met along the way, but remember this is a work of fiction. It’s not non-fiction, a memoir or autobiographical. Any passing resemblance to real life people and encounters have been changed to protect the innocent and the not so innocent. A great deal of this book exists in the realm of my imagination with real life incidents only serving as a jumping off point so to speak. Other chapters are pure fiction with no connection to real life experiences. Either way I hope you’ll be intrigued, amused, shocked, entertained and maybe even inspired by what you find here.
Each month I will introduce a new chapter or two on this blog with the goal of eventually bringing out my entire book in print and digital form.
Please enjoy this work in the spirit it has been offered -- with an open mind, an adventurous soul and a good sense of humor.
