Humorist-writer-mammal Carlos Kotkin is lucky in love-if lucky in love means hes had enough horrible, pathetic, and downright bizarre dating experiences to write a book. His trouble with females usually begins upon opening his mouth.

Here, Carlos shares his ups and mostly downs of bachelorhood, including romantic conquests with a slew of childhood crushes, insane yogis, a Playboy vixen, a STD host, the flaky, the deaf, and the just plain dumb. His unique mating style is not to be duplicated, but it will definitely make readers laugh-and want to get tested ASAP.

ADVANCE PRAISE FOR
PLEASE GOD LET IT BE HERPES

If you ever felt smitten, heartsick, lovelorn, or just smacked in the face by Cupids cruel hand, this book was written for you. Carlos Kotkins hilarious memoir will make you feel better about the state of your love life because his is so much worse.

Michael Ian Black

My diagnosis: Carlos Kotkins Herpes will stay with you for a very long time. His remarkably singular voice seems to bubble forth from a truly quirky, shamelessly personal, and desperately deep comedic soul. This wonderfully offbeat book is a rare gift to the hopeless romantic in all of us.

Tony Shalhoub

Carlos Kotkin continues to have one of the most original, outlandishly funny minds.

Mark Johnson, producer of Rain Man and
The Chronicles of Narnia

Carlos Kotkin has a consistent ability to wring laughter out of everyday, seemingly simple situations through intelligent humor that oftentimes sneaks up on you before delivering knockout laughs.

Jim Vallely, writer/coexecutive producer
of Arrested Development

Carlos Kotkins stories are hilarious. Theyre heartfelt, memorable, and perhaps most importantly, they could only have come from Carlos.

Ben Wexler, writer/producer of Secret Girlfriend,
Still Standing, and The King of Queens

Carlos Kotkin writes stories that are genuine, funny, and endearing and somehow make me feel a little bit better about the world. Plus, theyre funny. I know I mentioned that already, but it seems important enough to mention multiple times. I would be happy to lose a weekend with a book written by him.

Jaclyn Lafer, producer of Sit N Spin
at the Comedy Central Stage

This is a hilarious, extremely satisfying, and poignant readwhether you are searching for love, have herpes, neither, or both. In fact, I couldnt put it down. Physically I could. But I didnt want to. Im not still holding it.

Myq Kaplan, comedian

The awkward, often horrifying misadventures of this seemingly normal man are hilarious. Carlos Kotkin is an engaging, original voice.

Elizabeth Beckwith, author of Raising the Perfect
Child Through Guilt and Manipulation

Carlos Kotkin is so funny. I would never go out with him.

Nadine Velazquez, actress

A BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Dear Readers,

Hello, Im Carloss mother. I am honored that Carlos asked me to write the introduction to his book. This introduction is going to be short because, to be honest with you, I dont really like introductions in books. They are a pain in the neck. Id rather go to the beginning of the book. I might read the introduction after I finish reading the book because I like to get to the nitty-gritty. Nowadays, you read a book before you get to the book and that irritates me. I think, Yeah, right, yeah. Ill come back to you later. I need to read the book. So go ahead and get to the book if you want. The dedications are for the people who they are dedicated to; they probably dont apply to you. The prefacethere isnt oneso you dont have to worry about that. Just go to the first official page and enjoy it.

If youre still with me, you have chosen a very interesting book. In this book, you will find Carloss history of datinghere, there, and everywhereas he looked for a nice girl to call his own. Carlos is my only son. I am very proud of him. He is a great writer. He is a great person. Through the years, I have tried to help him. He has had many troubles with dating and finding the right person. Like many of us, you need to kiss a lot of frogs before you find a prince, or in his case, a princess that he can keep forever. To do that I have sent some girls his way, hoping that one of them will click. Some of the girls that I personally introduced to Carlos, I really thought they were the right girl and I could not understand why he didnt like them. A lot of the girls Carlos met on his own. I could see way far away from San Diego to Los Angeles that some of these girls were tushyholes and he should not be involved with them. They werent all crap; some of them must have been nice. I would best describe the girls Carlos has dated as a bouquet of flowers, of many varieties. Some of them were wilted. Some didnt smell very good. But you go onyou try to find the best rose in the garden. You get what you desire if you try hard.

The stories you are going to read are true stories. Names, places, and other things have been changed for the protection of the characters. I am not sure if Carloss full name is going to appear in this book, but if so I am going to change my last name. As far as my first name, you can call me Carloss mother. The title of the book is very creative; it is a good title. But when I tell my friends about this I am going to call it
