Book excerpt: It was 1974. A President faced impeachment, gas had surged to 60 cents a gallon and women were burning their bras.Chris Pugley and Travis Buckner were young disk jockeys who didn't really care about what was going on in the world. After moving from small market to small market in the first two years of their careers, they suddenly had a chance to go to New Orleans to help KSLM, a stodgy old radio station, launch a rock music format. When you're 23 years-old, what could be better than that?Sandi Kelso was a sexy and streetwise 24 year-old New Yorker who moved to New Orleans on a whim and wound up at KSLM, doing mind-numbing office work. But events presented her with new opportunities to advance both her career and her love life.Maria Muldaur's sexy hit song that dominated the charts in 1974 provides part of the musical soundtrack as Chris, Travis and Sandi discover excitement, romance and themselves, while taking a big step toward adulthood. Their year in the Crescent City brought them closer together and changed the course of their lives in the process. If you're a Baby Boomer and can still remember being young, this book may make you smile. If you're Gen X or a Millennial, you might be shocked to learn what your parents were up to when they were your age. "Midnight at the Oasis" perfectly captures New Orleans in the polyester era, much the way "Mad Men" nailed the '60s.

In the specific genre of mini giantess and small man, Amazons of Bluebelle Valley stands as a grand and unique achievement. It is a celebration of the dominant Goddess, a joyous ode to voluptuous, tall, gorgeous, amorous, and sexy women in the extreme. Surprisingly, these thoroughly smashing-good-time erotic adventures comprise an unexpected spiritual journey you can be proud to witness. Thoroughly indulge yourself and be properly uplifted at the same time: now that's the win-win we've been looking for!

This is the Hero's adventure as never seen before, looking up at sexually impossible odds. Each Episode fulfills the promise to be dependably engaging, heartfelt, clever, humorous, and of course sexually perilous for our unlikely little protagonist, Richie Greenfield. We cast aside all unhealthy shame to rejoice and claim this particular sexual fantasy and proclivity. Step into the extraordinary life of our little avatar, our champion, humbly doing his best to be a true man as he lives with, works for, loves under, and is munificently smothered by the Amazons and Giantesses of Bluebelle Valley. "The style is exceptionally easy to read. Each bodacious romp in the juicy fantasy land moves along like a fun amusement park ride. The characters are ultimately open and generous and therefore their world, while edgy and sexually dangerous, seems kind and oddly sweet. The paradox is that so much outrageous crushing sex could be so uplifting." J.E. - San Francisco

Download or read book A Night at the Sweet Gum Head Drag Drugs Disco and Atlanta s Gay Revolution written by Martin Padgett and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An electric and intimate story of 1970s gay Atlanta through its bedazzling drag clubs and burgeoning rights activism. Coursing with a pumped-up beat, gay Atlanta was the South's mecca—a beacon for gays and lesbians growing up in its homophobic towns and cities. There, the Sweet Gum Head was the club for achieving drag stardom. Martin Padgett evokes the fantabulous disco decade by going deep into the lives of two men who shaped and were shaped by this city: John Greenwell, an Alabama runaway who found himself and his avocation performing as the exquisite Rachel Wells; and Bill Smith, who took to the streets and city hall to change antigay laws. Against this optimism for visibility and rights, gay people lived with daily police harassment and drug dealing and murder in their discos and drag clubs. Conducting interviews with many of the major figures and reading through deteriorating gay archives, Padgett expertly re-creates Atlanta from a time when a vibrant, new queer culture of drag and pride came into being.

Book excerpt: The River City emerges as a hot spot for unseemly noir. Brand-new stories by: Dean King, Laura Browder, Howard Owen, Yazmina Beverly, Tom De Haven, X.C. Atkins, Meagan J. Saunders, Anne Thomas Soffee, Clint McCown, Conrad Ashley Persons, Clay McLeod Chapman, Pir Rothenberg, David L. Robbins, Hermine Pinson, and Dennis Danvers. FROM THE INTRODUCTION TO RICHMOND NOIR "In The Air-Conditioned Nightmare, Henry Miller tosses off a hard-bitten assessment of the City on the James: 'I would rather die in Richmond somehow, ' he writes, 'though God knows Richmond has little enough to offer.' As editors, we like the dying part, and might point out that in its long history, Richmond, Virginia has offered up many of the disparate elements crucial to meaty noir. The city was born amid deception, conspiracy, and violence . . . "These days, Richmond is a city of winter balls and garden parties on soft summer evenings, a city of private clubs where white-haired old gentlemen, with their martinis or mint juleps in hand, still genuflect in front of portraits of Robert E. Lee. It's also a city of brutal crime scenes and drug corners and okay-everybody-go-on-home-there's-nothing-more-to-see. It's a city of world-class ad agencies and law firms, a city of the FFV (First Families of Virginia) and a city of immigrants--from India, Vietnam, and Africa to Massachusetts, New York, and New Jersey. It's a city of finicky manners (you mustn't ever sneeze publicly in Richmond) and old-time neighborliness, and it's a city where you think twice about giving somebody the finger if they cut you off on the Powhite Parkway (that's pronounced Pow-hite, not Po-white, thank you very much) because you might get your head blown off by the shotgun on the rack . . ."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This young adult fantasy debut about love, found family, and healing is “a fantastical ode to the Golden City’s postpunk era,” told through the eyes of a Mexican-American girl (Entertainment Weekly). “Complex and beautiful, blending folklore, San Franciscan history, the music scene, vampires, magic . . . hard to put down.” —School Library Journal Seventeen-year-old Xochi is alone in San Francisco, running from her painful past: the mother who abandoned her, the man who betrayed her. Then one day, she meets Pallas, a precocious twelve-year-old who lives with her rockstar family in one of the city’s storybook Victorians. Xochi accepts a position as Pallas’s live-in governess and quickly finds her place in the girl’s tight-knit household, which operates on a free-love philosophy and easy warmth despite the band’s growing fame. But on the night of the Vernal Equinox, as a concert afterparty rages in the house below, Xochi and Pallas perform a riot-grrrl ritual in good fun, accidentally summoning a pair of ancient beings bound to avenge the wrongs of Xochi’s past. She would do anything to preserve her new life, but with the creatures determined to exact vengeance on those who’ve hurt her, no one is safe—not the family Xochi’s chosen, nor the one she left behind.
