In the Flesh: L.A. (the West coast version of In The Flesh founded by Rachel Kramer Bussel) is a monthly reading series held the second Wednesday of every month at Hustler Hollywood, and features the city's best journalists, authors, scriptwriters and more offering their torrid tales for your entertainment and titillation.

From secret dirty confessions to unique sexual insights (and even the odd embarrassment or two), these writers get naked on the page and will make you lust after them and their words. Readers have included Willam Belli, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Maxim Jakubowski, Stan Kent, Shana Ting Lipton, Jenny Block, Regina Lynn, Rob Roberge, Eugene S. Robinson, Marty Barrett, Seth Greenland, Nina Hartley, Jeff Miller, Colleen Wainwright, Adam Grayson, Joanna Angel, Ernest Greene, Maggie Marr and BatSheva Vaknin. We've also been written up in Metroblogging L.A., LAist, Thrillist, Fishbowl L.A., Blue Blood and others.

Themed include Survival, Confessions, Madonna, Fears, Embarrassments and many more. Complimentary snacks and desserts from the Hustler Hollywood cafe will be offered. The event is free.

In The Flesh: L.A. in the press

There’s been a flurry of activity going on around ITF:L.A. headquarters in preparation for tomorrow night’s launch. Firstly, the kind folks at Metroblogging L.A. gave us a sweet little write-up, followed by LAist showing us some love. Then this morning the news came down the pike that we were featured in Thrillist. And last but certainly not least, Fishbowl L.A. offered up some info about us as well. Thanks so much, y’all!

Don’t forget: our maiden voyage takes place tomorrow night from 8 – 10pm at Freddy and Eddy, and there will be cupcakes from Schmerty’s! You might want to arrive a little early for the mingle-and-snack portion of the evening, as we’ll get rolling with the reading as close to 8pm as possible.

See you soon!
