A man should never be ashamed to own he has been in the wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.

my books

my books, my books, my lovely lady books

I’ve written one book and another is on the way. Then another and another and…

The Internet Escort’s Handbook Book 1: The Foundation; Basic Mental, Emotional and Physical Considerations in Escort Work is exactly what the title says, yet so much more. It is subtly subversive without subscribing to any particular political theory. How? Because I write seriously about working as an escort.

The struggle to get the book produced has been chronicled here (check out the Adventures in Small Publishing Section). The tales don’t need repeating, suffice to say that the title alone is enough to make people want to burn the book and sprinkle Holy Water on me. Yet I talk about nothing that a smart woman wouldn’t want to know. After all, you deal with men on an intimate level whether you get paid for it or not (unless you’re a lesbian).

You can buy the book through me or Amazon. Right now they’re the same price but I love you long time if you buy it from me. Amazon takes a 55% cut off the top and they don’t offer you any love. They’re very pimp-like and I think we all know how I feel about that.

Book 2: Advertising and Marketing; Successfully Creating and Selling Your Image Online is nearly done. You can read a quick summary of #2 on the book’s site. Or visit its Amazon page and pre-order. We’re working toward a release sometime this year. Hopefully around August or so. Sorry for the delays, life got in the way.

*Page under construction. I’ll flesh it out as I think of more things to say here.

    Book #2 is on its way. Slowly. But getting there.

    I'm finally ready to rejoin life. Slowly, too.

    I've discovered the pleasure of working with Brian Gardner's WP themes. His free stuff is nearly flawless and his more expensive stuff is mind-blowing. Although his work is easy to use right out of the box, there's infinite fun to be had by customizing (i.e., destroying) it. As you can see here.
