Many and varied. Currently traveling, working and doing online stuff. Trying to simplify in order to enjoy life. Not working on Books 3 and 4 right now (sorry!)
Music
Rock (the harder the better), classical, classic jazz, classic country, 80s, electronic/dance
Movies
I'm one of those people who truly enjoy foreign films. I also like good 'ol Hollywood classics, like Gone With the Wind. I love The Little Mermaid. And I relish comedy like Borat and Thank You for Smoking. About the only thing I don't like are movies that waste my time (most Hollywood blockbusters).
Television
Haven't watched TV in years, actually. I love The Simpsons and have started watching Scrubs and Weeds as they come out on DVD. But really, I prefer to read or surf online. (My litmus test for fame? If you get to do yourself on The Simpsons.)
Books
Mostly non-fiction. You can see my book list online. But most of what I read right now is work-related. I haven't read any new fun stuff in a while, except Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel books.
Heroes
The people that seem heroic to me are common people who do extraordinary things, often for simple reasons. People like that amaze me. And Steve Irwin.
About me: I'm a sex worker who is writing a series of books for escorts. I formed my own publishing company in order to do this. My first two books are on Amazon! (keep reading for links)
I was born in Dallas, grew up in a small Texas town. I worked my way through college. One of those jobs included waitressing at a strip club, then I turned to stripping when the managers started ruining our schedules (and our money). Dancing was a great part-time job and I finished my degree without the need for student loans the final year.
I kept dancing while figuring out what I really wanted to do with my life. It turned into a full-time job because I made more than I would've made starting at the bottom in my chosen field (photography).
I became burned out because stripping was not really suited for me. Before I left the adult industry for good, there was one more thing I had always been curious about...I decided to try working as an escort. Bingo! Escort work is still my perfect job.
I retired in 2004 to write and try my hand at other projects, including becoming domesticated. Some of these projects have gone better than others (like the domestication thing).
So here I am. No longer retired. Not properly domesticated. Probably never will be.
My Books
If you would like to see what my books look like, click through My Pics. I've uploaded the front and back covers of both books.
Sex-Worker Library
I created a booklist on Squidoo for those who are curious.
Who I'd like to meet: Other authors (especially non-fiction), self-publishers, the open-minded, sex workers and people who might possibly read my book.
Who I DO NOT Want to Meet:
No girlfriend-seeking guys. I'm not here looking for a boyfriend.
December 17th is www.swopusa.org/dec17/ International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. This event was created to call attention to hate crimes committed against sex workers all over the globe. Originally thought of by Dr. Annie Sprinkle and started by the Sex Workers Outreach Project as a memorial and vigil for the victims of the Green River Killer in Seattle Washington, International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers has empowered workers from over cities around the world to come together and organize against discrimination and remember victims of violence. Join SWOP-Las Vegas! Wed, December 17th 7:00pm: Meet at The Center: 953 E. Sahara Ave., Suite B-31, Las Vegas, NV, 89104. Phone: 702-733-9800 (In Commercial Center) We will memorialize those sex workers who have lost their lives, and honor those who are missing. We'll also make signs for the vigil, and share some refreshments. 8:15pm: We will hold a vigil in the center parking lot with candles and then take our signs and red umbrellas to Sahara, where we will walk towards the strip. We will have masks and red umbrellas for those who wish to use them. Afterward, we will return to Commercial Center to eat Thai food!
