However\, hir characters\, Flynn and Charlotte\, are far from normal. I enjoyed how ze keeps their relationship lively but honest – even sweet\, but not in a saccharine way. Buy this book! For sheer enjoyment\, it’s a keeper!”\n – Marge Simon\, multiple Bram Stoker winner\, HWA Lifetime Achievement Award winner \n“If you enjoy unsettling dark paranormal romances that place power dynamics in sexual relationships under the microscope\, look no further. Sumiko Saulson gives us body horror\, what feels like an insiders look at mental illness and the mental health system\, dysfunctional families\, semi-obscure mythological characters\, and an excellent depiction of how many of us teeter on the fence between sex and death. Happiness and Other Diseases is a sexy\, funny\, disturbing\, and unflinching tale of the insane lengths people will go to in search of love and acceptance.”\n— Michelle Renee Lane\, Bram Stoker Award Nominated author of Invisible Chains \n“A twisted descent into arousal\, madness and mad arousal\, Happiness and Other Diseases pulls no punches as it peels back the layers of the human experience to reveal our soft\, creamy centers. Take that how you want\, but if you are looking for a disturbing\, sexually charged read with solid writing\, Sumiko Saulson delivers.”\n— Angela Yuriko Smith\, Bram Stoker Awards® Nominated author of In Favor of Pain \n“It is a very unconventional book that offers a supernatural dimension to the mysterious\, sometimes mind-bending world of psychological pathological conditions\, psychosis\, and disorders.”\nJustin Boyer\, bibliophilesreverie.com \n“Happiness And Other Diseases by Sumiko Saulson is a tragic love story that includes dark humor\, Greek mythology… moments of pure horror.” \nDavid Watson\, HorrorAddicts.net URL:https://sfleatherdistrict.org/event/happiness-and-other-diseases-book-release-party/ LOCATION:145 9th St\, San Francisco\, CA 94103-2620\, United States CATEGORIES:Committee Meetings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://sfleatherdistrict.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/13140_image_275116614_1790255537833882_4096043968133573139_n.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20220419T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20220419T210000 DTSTAMP:20260410T110240 CREATED:20211215T235249Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220419T235150Z UID:12601-1650398400-1650402000@sfleatherdistrict.org SUMMARY:LCD: Erotic Storytelling Hour DESCRIPTION:San Francisco’s LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District\npresents a special\, 18+ only\, online event: \nThe Erotic Storytelling Hour! \nCome hear some provocative\, graphic\, sexy\, titillating\, and funny stories (and more) from selected writers of our community! \nBe 18+ \nHosted by Sumiko Saulson\, David Hyman\, and Cal Callahan \nFeatured Readers:\n Daniel Erickson\n Foster\n Jconr B.
