Could you tell us a little about what qualifies you to compile and edit the new Black Lace book of Women's Sexual Fantasies?I've written and edited a number of books in the erotica arena, I guess that's a plus! I've also established myself as doing something a little bit men sex toys(http://www.sextoysbrand.com/sex-toys-for-men) different from many of my erotic-writing contemporaries, so I suppose that allows me to be taken more seriously when it comes to doing a non-fiction survey book such as this, especially one where women have placed their trust in me to do right by them. I didn't want to go all pseudo-psychological for this book. After all, I'm not a psychologist, therefore I tried to approach it as both a good bit of fun as well as a socio-cultural study of contemporary female sexuality.
You've written several erotic novels. How did you first come to start writing erotic fiction?In all honesty, it happened entirely by accident. I'd been working on some mainstream novels and had gotten close to publication, but it never came to fruition. A chance meeting at a party with a cheap adult toys self-professed erotica writer is what I believe sowed the seed in my mind. When he heard that I was a writer, he had me read some of his work, and god it was so dire. It only added to my preconception of the erotica market in general, and after that I began to get an idea for a book.I didn't give it much credence really, as I had other things on my literary agenda, but it's as if this thing was writing itself out in my head. I'd wake up in the mornings with more and more of it, almost like scenes of a film being revealed, until I finally had to sit down and start writing it out for real.
I've never had this process repeat itself again, unfortunately!What are your influences?I don't think I really have any concrete influences per se. Ideas spring from nowhere, or from something completely random, like a character in a film, or a place I have visited. I'm not that influenced by other writers either. I may read a novel or story and find the style or structure or narrative intere.
risk of unplanned pregnancy are also at risk of HIV, and vice-versa so separation of these services no longer makes sense. The global health community must work to bring family planning and HIV services together – and quickly – to save women’s lives.
The challenge to achieving this exists at the very highest levels. So the question is how do we ensure women receive the support they need to protect themselves against unplanned pregnancy and HIV infection?
In the past many HIV and family planning services have operated in complete isolation of one another. It is only through integration of sexual and reproductive health and HIV that we can hope to address this challenge.

In June 2006, The US Food and Drug Administration approved the use of the vaccine, Gardasil (Merck), for girls ages 9 to 26. The vaccine protects against four strains of HPV, including HPV-6 and -11, as well as the high risk strains HPV-16 and 18, which are a known cause of cervical, oropharyngeal, anal, and vaginal cancers. The CDC followed hot girl suit recommending the three dose vaccine become a routine immunization for girls. Gardasil was licensed for use in boys in October 2009. The CDC voted to approve it for boys in 2011.
