You Blush: Confessions of A Vermont Erotica Writer
I am the soccer mom who lives down the street in your small Vermont town.
You don’t notice me, but oh, I notice you. Yes, you. The curve of a
stockinged calf as you slide into the driver’s seat of your Camry.
The slice of pink lace as your bra strap slips out from beneath the shoulder

Control: Contraception Is A Laughing Matter
Everything you wanted to say about sex, but were afraid
to even think it, is how we might describe story-teller
Cindy Pierce’s hilarious one-woman show “Finding
the Doorbell,” performed at the Flynn Theater in
Burlington this fall. Even if our own elusive “spot” she
calls the doorbell never quite gets rung, Pierce nails
our collective funny bone as she shares her wit and wisdom
of the facts of life, orgasmic and not-so-orgasmic. We

as she negotiates the turf of sex for pleasure, not procreation.
