The Mammoth Book of Erotic On-Line Diaries

by Maxim Jakubowski

Here are candid accounts of their most private lives by ordinary and extraordinary people, straight from the hottest blogs on the Internet. Where once people wrote diaries, they are now writing blogs - web logs - posted on open sites for everyone to read. Personal websites are opening up a whole new world. The daily revelations of ordinary people are creating a new generation of 'reality' diaries for the 21st century and they make compelling reading. Collected and edited by Maxim Jakubowski, here is the first major anthology of illuminating insights into the lives and often outrageous experiences of sex bloggers. You can find out about the daily thoughts and adventures of a stripper, a webcam girl, a prostitute, a dominatrix, a highschool student, a couple of swingers, a pair of newly-weds, a porn store clerk, a nymphomaniac executive, male and female submissives and their counterpart Masters and Mistresses, and many others. These are real people who enjoy writing about their sex lives, their relationships and their fantasies with complete honesty - in fact they are the new 'web celebs'.
