If you're interested in keeping a seven-day Sex Diary, visit the Sex Diaries Project here (be sure to click on the link from here so that Arianne knows who's coming from the Bitch site)! We'll also post an anonymous Sex Diary here on the Bitch blogs every Tuesday in March (Arianne won't run any diaries without explicit permission from the diarist and will change all identifying details), so even if you'd rather not keep a diary you can still participate.
We asked Arianne a few questions about the Sex Diaries Project for you to read before you get started. If you have more questions for her be sure to leave them in the comments!
