About the Author: Laura Roberts writes about sex, travel, writing, and ninjas - though not necessarily in that order. As the author of the "V for Vixen" sex column, Laura began her career chronicling Montrealers' sexcapades, which are collected together in her book of essays, The Vixen Files. Blurring the lines between fact and fiction, she's also penned Confessions of a 3-Day Novelist, Ninjas of the 512, parts one and two of her serial novel, Naked Montreal, and a wide assortment of erotic Quickies.
Laura is also the founding editor of the literary magazine Black Heart, and can leg-press an average-sized sumo wrestler while sipping her morning coffee. She lives in sunny SoCal with her artist husband and their literary kitties, and can be found online at Buttontapper.com.
