| I’m an adult industry focused freelance writer who loves to cover industry topics through a personal online sex worker lens. I love writing about pornography, its history, its artistic side and how it is perceived by the viewers. I also love exploring kinks, sexual taboos, online censorship and stigma in my writing, as well as shine light on how multifaceted, talented and unique adult content creators are. My greatest strengths as a writer are the ability to write pieces that connect to the reader on a personal level and the capacity to see a specific situation from multiple perspectives. My ideal writing jobs would give me the opportunity to explore different sex and sex work related topics in depth instead of writing simple filler content for SEO purposes. I’m also happy to provide editing services for adult industry clients to make sure their content flows beautifully while still clearly conveying its message to the reader. |
