naked candor

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” ― Maya Angelou

On June 24, 2009, I started shedding my inhibitions, revealing my secrets and telling the world about my experiences and struggles with all things sex, love and joy. It was a journey of self-discovery that revealed the unlimited power of candor, the beauty of vulnerability and the peace that is unleashed by baring it all – the good and the bad – before those curious enough to read.

“I do know that I am not alone, and that’s why I tell my story.” ― Carol Queen

I wrote knowing that I wasn’t the only one with scars to heal, secrets to tell, insecurities to let go of, fantasies to share, philosophies to expound on; I knew that others had stories to tell too.

Naked Candor is an uncensored series of bold but delicate stories that reveal complicated personal truths about life, love and sex; told by those brave enough to bare!

“The personal and the human and the intimate give us a compassion and an insight into others’ motives and ways of acting.” ― Anaïs Nin
