“Wow,” I thought. “You really can use this karate to kick bad-guy ass.
Karate is so different from the slowly moving forms of T’ai Chi I’d been practicing ’til then. Mostly gentle, T’ai chi is also method of combat—not being there when someone wants to hurt you, the subtle art of getting out of the way and using the attacker’s own force to your advantage. Karate, the hard form; T’ai Chi, the soft form.
Another union of hard and soft is yoga, which is even slower and not at all combative. When my yoga teacher taught me about Tantra, the meditations and forms that tap the cosmic energy of the union of the male and female elements and help us become conscious of the sexual energy all around us, everything came together.
My Secret Sex Life features a woman who keeps her vivid and experimental sexuality hidden from the world. Ménage á Spies is about how a Latin American sociologist, his sister, three FBI agents who are watching them (the spies), a college student, and the two women at the center of everything come together with karate, yoga, and T’ai chi, love and lots of love and sex.
I was born, raised and attended college in Colorado. My erotic fiction and essays have been published at several online sites as well as in print.
