More True Sex Confessions on YouTube

Photos from November's In The Flesh are coming soon, too. Now, in addition to the video of Lux Nightmare below, we have more, all shot by Richard Blakeley. Below, in order, is me (Rachel Kramer Bussel), Anna David (reading from her novel-in-progress), Kimberlee Auerbach (reading from her memoir The Devil, The Lovers and Me: My Life in Tarot), Isobella Jade (Coming soon! I'm trying to figure out the problem with this one - on being a nude model), and comedian Rachael Parenta (on blowjobs and figuring out what it means when a guy asks you to come over for "tea"). For those who are wondering, Selina Fire asked not to be filmed. Enjoy! And if you like them, please favorite and rate them well.
