Published: Sept. 25, 2020, 8:27 p.m.

Sumiko Saulson's extensive work includes writing award-winning sci-fi horror stories, writing a newspaper column, writing comics, editing anthologies, and hosting an erotic show for San Francisco's world-renown, inclusive kink community. As a polyamorous nonbinary writer, many of Sumiko's erotic stories have the benefit of real experience to pull from, which made this discussion not only entertaining but educational. Listen to learn Sumiko's ideal reader, tips for writing erotica, insight into kink culture, what polyamory and BDSM are from a lifestylist perspective, what nonbinary pronouns mean, Sumiko's real life story of meeting Anne Rice, and more. As mentioned in our previous episode: Twenty-nine authors got together under the vision and direction of Mocha Memoirs Press and created a horror anthology unlike any other--one with short stories centered around black vampires. It's called SLAY: Stories of the Vampire Noire, and it comes out Oct. 13th, just in time for Halloween. Sumiko's story "Asi's Horror and Delight" will be included in the anthology.
