LOS ANGELES—The Swingset Network announces the release of My Life on the Swingset, the first book by Life on the Swingset podcast host and Swingset Network President Cooper S. Beckett.
The book details Beckett's journey from a monogamous marriage into the world of swinging and through to his current life as a prominent voice in the sex positive community on the topics of swinging, polyamory, and all aspects of ethical non-monogamy.
Published on Beckett's own Hump & Circumstance Press, My Life on the Swingset is a collection of personal essays, stories, erotica, and prescriptive how-tos that includes material from Beckett's five years of writing and podcasting at LifeOnTheSwingset.com. It covers a wide range of topics, including dating as a swinger, evolving feelings about love and expectations, dealing with jealousy and social anxiety, having threesomes and orgies, going through a divorce, and "leveling up" in life and sexuality.
"Cooper Beckett goes old school gonzo in My Life On the Swingset as your tour guide of non-monogamy in this delightful and playful romp of a read," said Jackie Strano, executive vice president of Good Vibrations. "Fear & Loathing meets On The Road as Cooper gives you first hand debaucherous details about his trials and tribulations and ecstatic moments of exploration in the swinger lifestyle. Defining NRE, prostate orgasm, sexy safe sex, and basic etiquette while telling a charming story is not easy but this recovering Catholic boy gives it his gusto and the book is helpful as well as entertaining."
My Life on the Swingset is available exclusively as an Amazon Kindle ebook starting today, with a print edition to follow later this month and an audiobook release in the spring. Beckett will make appearances to discuss the book on the Swingset Network's Carnalcopia podcast as well as the Full Disclosure podcast and Ending the Sexual Dark Age, and an interview with Beckett will appear in Rachel Kramer Bussel's “Let's Get It On” column in this week's Philadelphia City Paper.
