Interview with Coyote Days of Good Releasing

After a month off, I had the pleasure of interviewing Coyote Days, producer for Good Releasing, for my Ethical Pornographer column. I also got to meet the lovely lady in person at a couple of Good Vibrations‘ events which I wrote about for MySexProfessor: Lesbo Retro and IXFF (amazing videos included).

Here’s a snippet of the interview:

GJ: How is Good Releasing different from other porn production companies out there, both mainstream and indie?

CD: Our films are incredibly authentic. This is the sex people are having and in many films they are having it not only how but with who they want. Our films vary – from Queer DIY to high art visionary erotic explorations – and there is an range of directors, models and visions. The one commonality is that the directors and stars of each are showing their authentic sexual selves. There’s exploration of vision and some incredibly authentic chemistry-filled sex. We work with incredible directors and models – some who this is their first/only time on camera and some who shoot every week or more. All this combined creates a body of work expressing authentic sexuality and eroticism that speak to a variety of communities in a very real way.

I think there is a great synergy between what good releasing is doing and what some other production companies are doing. Combined we are offering new genres and new categories of porn which is super exciting to me both as a pornographer, as a queer and as a feminist.

The awesome folks over at Good Vibrations are letting me give away 2 tickets to the IXFF screening on the 23rd so if you’re in the Bay Area and you’d like to go to this awesome event leave me a comment and I’ll randomly pick two commenters on Wednesday the 22nd.

I’ll be there so if you see me make sure to say hi!

Ebb and Flow

Wow, so apparently I’ve been neglecting my blog. That’s sad. I try hard and do so well for awhile, posting regularly – usually several times per week. But life ebbs and flows and so does blog writing.

I find it especially difficult to keep up with the blog when there are lots of new things going on in my life. It takes awhile to recapture the balance of it all. Working for MyPleasure, writing for MySexProfessor and PopMyCherryReview, moving and settling into my new home in the Bay Area, and soon writing even more. It can be difficult to constantly come up with original content especially when you never intended to be a writer. Life is kind of funny like that. Speaking of writing, did you see that one of my posts from MySexProfessor was featured on Jezebel? That was pretty exciting.

There’s lots of fun things coming up and I have yet to decide whether or not I will write about them – I guess we shall see after they happen. First, I will be attending two days of IXFF: I will be at Lesbo Retro on the 22nd and the Competition and after party (and maybe pre-party) on the 23rd. If you see me say hi. I’m especially excited about this because Coyote Days, producer at Good Releasing, will be there and she said she’s excited to meet me. The goal of having awesome sex positive friends in the community is coming together. Did I mention that I met Madison Young at her gallery recently? Unfortunately, I’m really easily start struck and tend to just be shy and a bit nerdy when in the presence of awesomeness.

Then on the 26th there’s Folsom Street Fair which the wife and I will be attending. I’ve never been to anything like it since I’m from the midwest and all. I’m sure I will be shocked, surprised, turned on, and totally smitten.

On October 1st I will be at the NYC Sex Bloggers Calendar release party representing MyPleasure. This will be the first time a company I work for is sending me somewhere. It’s pretty cool and I hope to meet lots of fun people. And of course if you see me, please say hi. I tend to be a bit shy.

Tight Places: A Drop of Color

Disappointingly, not many people showed up to the twitter porn party a few nights ago. We still had fun, but hopefully next month we can get more folks to join in because the conversation makes it better.

I’m not going to review the movie we watched, but I did take a lot of screen caps to share so you can all get a taste of it. It was panty dropping hot and really well shot. But you all should seriously attend the next one.

(Hover over picture and click on arrows to scroll through. Click on middle icon to enlarge.)

Hot, right? Well let me tell you, I couldn’t even begin to capture the chemistry between the players or the really really hot scenes – too much movement to take pics of.

If you’d like to check out the commentary from that night go to #pornparty. If you’d like to watch Tight Places: A Drop of Color you can buy the DVD or watch it streaming via VOD at Good Vibes. I highly recommend it.

Twitter Porn Party #2

So I mentioned that I was going to be doing a twitter pornoparty last month, but it didn’t happen. I didn’t really push it because, well, everything has been hectic here. You try moving across the country and not having any of your stuff for 2 weeks and try to coordinate a twitter party. It’s not easy. That’s okay though because we’re now set to go. But we’ve decided on a different movie, one that is really exciting.

Here are the details:

When: This Wednesday September 8th 9PM EST/ 6PM PST.

Where: Twitter #pornparty

What: Tight Places: A Drop of Color

Organizers: me of course and @mrsexsmith

Plus, there will be giveaways and promo codes! One $30 Good Vibrations gift card will be given away on Sugarbutch Chronicles (just leave a comment on that post to enter) that day and one will be given away by me during the party. I will update you as more info becomes available.

If you’d like to join us, but you don’t have the movie you can order right now on DVD or get it the night of on VOD. We should have promo codes for a half hour free on VOD the night of.

Are you excited? I am! I’ve heard good things about this flick!

This Month’s Porno Party

So we had planned on watching the second disc of Strapped Dykes for this month’s porno party and guess what, Jiz Lee is auctioning off the cock they used in the film as well as a signed copy of the movie. So I think we’ll hold off on doing the pornoparty until said cock and film are bought so the winner can join us in the party. What do you think?

Also it will buy me some time for my stuff to arrive from Chicago. Although Femenina Deliciosa was nice enough to offer up her place for the porno watching festivities. So even if my stuff doesn’t come yet, we should still be able to do it.

Next month we will be a lot more organized I swear! In fact, I’m planning on doing a giveaway of the movie we decide on so that the winner can watch along with us. It should be fun times.

So what days work best for you? Jiz’s auction is tomorrow. So how about Tuesday the 31st? What time works best for you? I’ll of course have to make sure Femenina’s schedule fits. But for me, I should be available after 6PM PST. Although, if we plan it for a non-Tuesday or Thursday my schedule will be a lot wider open. Whatcha all think?
