Justin Jones may be from the wrong side
of the tracks, but heck if he won't suck in
his belly, conquer his fears, and land a
spot
on the U.S. Diving Team once and for all.
Years later, the high tech economy crash forces Justin to take a hard right on his
road to self-discovery.
Instead of coming out of the closet, the
internet golden boy summons the courage
of his platform diving days to become what
he sees is the least of all possible evils: a traveling prostitute.
"Has
morality been redefined in the digital age? Both devastating and
enlightening, each snappy chapter of Spilled Milk hints at the
complexity of issues faced by renegade psychologists, internet
addicts, porn stars, politicians, Catholic priests, star athletes,
and Hollywood actors.”
“I’ve watched the
author’s work being performed in three major cities and people
go crazy for it - straight, gay, men, women, old, young. His
writing really makes the strangeness accessible.”

Editor, Ho’s, Hookers, Call Girls, and Rent Boys
CASTING SHADOWS
written under the pen name Justin Jones
The first chapter of DIVE was recently published in a Soft Skull
Press' anthology Hooker's,
Call Girls, and Rent Boys: professionals writing on life, love, and
sex.
It was featured on the cover of the
New York Times Book Review in August 2009 and subsequently sold out of it's first three runs.
"An eye-opening, astonishing, honest and
funny collection from those who really have lived on the edge in a
parallel universe… Unpretentious and riveting, their tales are also
graphic, politically incorrect and mostly unquotable in this newspaper."
