Slavery in America’s Heartland? It’s a 21st Century Dirty Secret Affecting Girls as Young as 12.

Slavery is not dead in America. Human trafficking – forcing people to work against their will – is the second-largest criminal industry in the world; illegal sale of drugs is first. The money raised by trafficking girls for sex is used to purchase illegal drugs and guns, two commodities that bring in more money and wield more power for the men who possess them. The girls sold for sex don’t get any of the money they earn.

Affair sex vs. married sex from "Anatomy of an Affair" by Kerry Cohen

Portland, I heart you

Portland has been nonstop - stayed at Hyatt Place, because I was antsy about coming to a residential neighborhood at 1 am sans phone, and had a lovely time.

All my events: Portland, Eugene, Seattle, NYC, Minneapolis

Please tell friends in these cities - free cupcakes at readings, good times!

Sorry if these are out of order - I'm in Portland, off to the Apple Store to buy a new iPhone. Yes, that's how the last few days have been. It's probably in my apartment but I went to work, went back home to look for it, couldn't find it and almost missed my plane...which was then delayed by 2 hours thanks to JetBlue so I made it. Follow along in real time once I get a new phone on… Continue

Singing Beatles cupcake telegram

Please watch this singing Beatles cupcake telegram (and pass it on!) if you want to bring a smile to your day. That is why almost five years in, I still love cupcake blogging.

It's looking… Continue
