Penthouse Forum story based on Zoe

Posted by admin under interview, writing on Wednesday Feb 24, 2010

A Penthouse Forum cover story that was based on an interview with Zoe. Her name was changed to Dyana for legal reasons because she was still in the sex industry when she granted the interview.

The Lady is a Pimp

What’s a nice girl like Dyana doing as the head of a New York City brothel? Exactly what she wants to

Dyana puts out another cigarette She’s several smokes into our interview and well past her initial apologies for the habit.
Despite the general clatter and confined racket of people eating dinner in the West Village restaurant in which we sit, she manages to speak intimately.
“A lot of guys really get into going down on prostitutes, They think, I can make you come like no other guy I know you’re only in this for the money‚ – I’m not naive like the others‚ – but I can break through that shell and make you come too,’” she says with only a hint of pity in her English accent “Making a hooker come is second in male fantasies only to making a lesbian convert”.
As proprietress of a Manhattan brothel called Sterling Ladies, Dyana has become quite adept at sniffing out‚ – and catering to‚ - men’s sexual fantasies She says the most unusual clients she’s encountered thus far was a group of five businessmen who were married, it seemed, and shared four Sterling Ladies girls at once, fucking them all in front of each other.
“Anything you can imagine can be discussed. Anal and tit-fucking are standard. A blowjob without a condom can happen. It’s nothing we en courage but you can control only so much,” she states coolly, adding that all fantasy fulfillment at Bewitchment has one thing in common: $190 for a half hour, $240 for an hour and $400 for a “two-girl special.” Got bigger kinks? Bring bigger tips.
Strangely, having Dyana smash a few of my fantasies makes me feel more intimate with her. I wasn’t being manipulated. The more real she is, the more aroused I become. Chalk part of that up to her undeniable sex appeal. Dyana has exotic features: long blond/brown hair, full lips and dark eyes that reveal her mother’s Mexican heritage. When she rises from our table she exposes a hint of midriff be tween her studded black leather belt, leather pants and crisp white shirt. The restaurant’s delicious scents frustrate my attempts to catch her perfume.
At thirty-four years old, Dyana is younger than I’d imagined for a New York madam, a role that suits her better than some she’s had previously. She’s too poised and pleasant to have stayed the junkie street hooker she was in her rebellious teens, which she says involved hustling Arabs more than putting out. Hard drugs and depression stayed with her through at tempts to detox until she was twenty-nine and into her failed marriage. “Anyone sticking needles in their arm has emotional problems,” she notes. When she began her new life after having kicked coke and heroin, she took the name Dyana, the Roman goddess of birth.

Sid: Anti-Semitism as Fetish

Posted by admin under short story, writing on Monday Dec 7, 2009

My short story “Anti-Semitism as Fetish” was published on Carnal Nation on December 1st 2009.

“Lizzy, your eight o’clock is here. Room three. Hurry.” Ingrid yelled from the office.

I’d been lounging in the living room with the other women. I stubbed my cigarette out and pulled myself up from the couch

“On my way up now.” I yelled back.

I had been prepared for Sidney Glick, a client of the house who favored domme sessions. We had never met. Ingrid had directed him to me as I was the only girl on schedule who didn’t mind doing dominance sessions. I lunged up the stairs two at a time in my six-inch heels to the third floor. I knocked on the door and walked in, morphing into Mistress.

Heroin My Love – a short story

Posted by admin under short story, writing on Saturday Nov 21, 2009

HEROIN MY LOVE

by LZ Hansen

When people ask “What would you like to be when you grow up”? No one ever says “I want to be a junkie.”

Well, that’s exactly what I wanted to be. I wanted to grow up to be the best junkie I could.

The type that walks with a loose hip swaying swagger. Wearing skin tight black jeans that have been worn so long they fit like a second skin. The type of girl who has long straight slept in hair. I wanted ghostly translucent skin and pouty lips, my eyes smudged with black eye liner.

I had day dreams of shooting dope in the top of an old industrial building far far away from people. Which is what I imagined being a junkie was all about, isolation.
