Book description
Grant Stoddard left Britain for the States with the clothes on his
back, a fascination with all things American, and a burning hope for
something bigger. But with no steady job, no money, and no girlfriend,
the starry-eyed young Englishman's excitement was shrinking fast.
Then fate in the guise of an X-rated online contest intervened.
Winning first prize -- sexual intercourse with an infamous married sex
columnist -- changed everything. With a shot of much needed
confidence, the sensitive lad emerged as the mascot of Nerve. com, a
gonzo sex columnist who would begrudgingly try any and every lurid
thing his co-workers devised. From offering himself up as man-bait at
a notoriously hard-core gay bar to attending an elite orgy with a
blue-blooded date, Stoddard went where few men dare and lived to tell
the tale.
With a self-deprecating style and wonderful appreciation of the
absurd, Working Stiff is a unique coming-of-age story from a
very funny and irreverent new writer.
At twenty-one perennial virgin Grant Stoddard left Britain for the
United States in pursuit of true love. After eighteen months of
couch-surfing and heartbreak, he stumbled into a job as New York's most
intrepid sex columnist, despite having little experience in either sex
or writing. He lives in New York City.
