It's official! My award-winning novels are back in print!

I'm profoundly grateful to Ten16 Press for their support.

To my existing - and future - readers ... heartfelt thanks for going on this journey with me and the characters of these stories. 🙏

Two books sit side by side on a wooden surface. For the one on the left, the overall color palette ranges from dark to pale green. The main image is a shadowy face, with light exploding from the top of the head, suggesting the birth of a galaxy. A small figure of a woman rises within the light. The title KAT'S CRADLE: WEBOLUTION BOOK ONE appears there as well. At the base of the dark face's neck, the author name Karuna Das appears in pale green. In the background, jagged lines and clouds of light and stars are set against a series of intersecting straight dark lines, suggesting a web and the cat's cradle string game. A silver award decal in the bottom right is accompanied by text at the bottom reading, "2023 Independent Press Award Distinguished Favorite in Visionary Fiction." Text at the top of the cover, a quote from Heidi Ruby Miller, author of The Ambasadora Series, reads, "Kat's Cradle is neuropunk at its mind-bending and truly optimistic finest." For the one on the right, a dark purple cover features a phallic-shaped mushroom, just above which a figure of white light floats in seated meditation posture surrounded by a wide circle of blue and yellow light. The title Sex, Drugs & Spiritual Enlightenment (but mostly the first two) is written in neon yellow and blue below the mushroom cap. The author name Karuna Das is in light purple below that. In the upper right corner of the cover are two silver award decals, one reading "CIPA EVVY SECOND PLACE BOOK AWARD" and the other reading "INDEPENDENT PRESS AWARD 2024 DISTINGUISHED FAVORITE."

There's still time to catch me and my magic hands on my impromptu trip to the Florida Gulf Coast. I could fit in one booking tomorrow: 11/30.

Galen, a bald man with white moustache and goatee, smiles at the camera from a balcony. He's bare chested. He has a peace sign tattooed on the back of his left hand, which rests on the white railing of the balcony. Behind and below is a green lawn, palm trees and other tropical vegetation, and a swimming pool with chaise lounges.

I've got a busy calendar this weekend! Freaky Friday fetish night at a sex club, a Halloween BDSM play party on Saturday night, and the SWOON Alliance monthly SWer social on Sunday evening.

But I could still fit in a Sacred Touch session or two. 🙏🕉️☮️💓

Flyer for SWOON's monthly Social Club event. Welcome to all former and current spicy workers and invited allies! It will be taking place this Sunday, October 19, 2025, from 7:30 to 9:00 PM. The location is kept private, so please send us a message for the address.

Three years ago today – 10/10/22 – as I touched the heart chakra of a tantrik massage recipient for the first time, the artery carrying blood away from my heart tore apart inside as my aorta dissected. Left untreated that typically leads the aorta to rupture, causing instant death. (1/)
On a white square background, three smaller square black and white images form a diagonal from upper left to lower right in which Galen, wearing a dark cloak, incrementally pulls back a hood from completely obscuring his face to revealing his identity by the last image. Although the background in the smaller images is blurred, it appears to be a cemetery. A series of quotations in black text fills the remaining white background of the main image. From His Holiness the Dalai Lama: "Awareness of death is the very bedrock of the entire path." From Sogyal Rinpoche: "Death is like a mirror in which the true meaning of life is reflected back." From Kahlil Gibran: "I said to Life, 'I would hear Death speak.' And Life raised her voice a little higher and said, 'You hear him now.'" From Virgil: "Death twitches in my ear. 'Live,' he says. 'I am coming.'" The left side of the main image consists of two black and white images on top of each other in which a robed and hooded Galen sits upright on a stone bench, hands folded in his lap. In the top image, there are trees behind him. In the bottom image, an out-of-focus hillside shows cemetery headstones and monuments. Along the right of these images are a series of quotations in black text against a white background. From Lucius Annaeus Seneca: "Rehearse death. To say this is to tell a person to rehearse his freedom." From Michel de Montaigne: "We do not know where death awaits us: so let us wait for it everywhere. To practice death is to practice freedom." From Stanislav Grof: "There is no fundamental difference between the preparation for death and the practice of dying, and spiritual practice leading to enlightenment."

I had the pleasure of providing pleasure to two playmates at a sex club last night using my cordless electric wand - and magic hands, of course. It isn't named "shockgasm" for nothing! 😈

It's available to include in a booking if that appeals to you.

A red and black rectangular box rests on a beige fabric background. The product manufacturer brand logo features a red devil head followed by the word SEX with the devil's tail underlining it and curving up at the end. The product name is "SHOCKGASM 2.0 Unplugged" with a lightning bolt pointed toward the decimal point in the number. Below the product name is an image of a black wand with a comb-like attachment. Below that reads, "5-piece cordless electric wand."

If you haven't seen Freaky Tales, I found the entire film quite entertaining. As a bonus, it will likely vicariously fulfill any desire you have to commit violence against Nazis!

Streaming on HBO MAX and available on other platforms.

Movie poster for Freaky Tales with the tagline, "In 1987, Oakland Was Hella Freaky." The central images shows the three top-billed actors, Pedro Pascal, Jay Ellis, and Ben Mendelsohn, standing in a trio, each holding a weapon: a hatchet, a samurai sword, and a sawed-off shotgun. Behind them appear the other half dozen or so actors in the ensemble cast. A freaky green neon lightning bolt descends from above and illuminates the background and the eyes of one actor at the rear of the image.

One of my birthday gifts from my nesting partner this week was this game designed for 2-6 players. She gets me. 😊 I've flipped a sample selection of cards to show the poetic descriptions of ways you touch another participant on your turn.

Who wants to play? Book me.

#sacredtouch #eroticmassage
A multicolored box top with the word Touchcards sits in the middle of an arrangement of eight playing cards with text on them. The cards say things like, "Touch me like my skin is covered in thick honey" and "Touch me as if to leave a message for someone else on my skin," or "You are a mountain stream and I am the river bed through which you dance" and "You are an archaeologist. I am the forgotten city. Carefully, methodically, unearth me."

Commemorating another trip around the Sun in my birthday suit. It hasn't always felt like a great fit this past year. Over the last twelve months, this body has experienced a fair amount of pain -- and not just the fun kind! 😈 (1/2)
Galen, a bald man with white moustache and goatee, looks at the camera from a seated position in a high-backed chair. He's naked, with his knees wide apart, his genitals visible. Low sun casts a warm glow on him. On a table beside him, a sunflower faces the source of light.

Tabling for @swoonalliance.bsky.social at the Pittsburgh Bridge Community Kinknic this afternoon.
Galen, a bald man with white moustache and goatee, looks at the camera. He wears a black sleeveless t-shirt, a necklace with a chakra stone pendant, and a beaded bracelet. He's seated in front of a banner hanging from an overhead canopy that reads "Sex Work Is Work." Behind, a green lawn and trees give way to a blue sky.

So grateful for my experience with my client yesterday, and not just for the tip of several hundred dollars or the gift of a brand new, unopened Lovense Sex Machine (retail $699).

We shared six hours of profound connection as I introduced her to energy work, including moments of mystical union. 🌌

I'm heading to Eastern Ohio to see a client today. It's a 2-hour drive each way, and I'll spend ~6 hours there, so it will be a long day. But I'm really looking forward to it. They want my company, sensual but not erotic massage, and Reiki. In preparation, I gave myself some Reiki this morning. 🙏🕉️☮️💓
Galen, a bald man with white moustache and goatee, looks at the camera with a slight smile. He's seated beside an altar on which rests various photos, statues, crystals, and other sacred objects. He wears a black sleeveless t-shirt. He holds his left arm across his body with the hand, on the back of which is a tattoo of the peace symbol, resting on his right shoulder.

Aditya Hridayam Punyam, Sarv Shatru Vinashanam!

"When the Sun is kept in the heart, all evils vanish from life!"

This morning I repeated that Sanskrit phrase 108 times as I touched each of my mala beads.

I received the mantra from a disciple of Neem Karoli Baba, Indian guru of Ram Dass.

🙏🕉️☮️💓
Galen, a bald man with white moustache and goatee, smiles at the camera. He wears a string of red beads around his neck so they fall to the bottom of his bare chest. Next to him, various objects -- a framed photo, statues, crystals, and more -- sit on an altar.
