My name is Em. I’m in my 40s, single. And this is a place where I write about sex, dating and relationships. It’s likely that I won’t use names and that’s okay. The people I’m writing about are secondary to the main character here (which is me).

I’ve also just this year started writing poetry and I’m even more nervous to share my poems on this blog than I am describing some of my most awkward sexual encounters. Please let me know what you think. About the poetry or the writing.

I feel like I get it wrong a lot with sex and dating and relationships. So wrong. But I hope you’ll stick with me on this journey despite that.
