Erotica and You Do What For a Living?

Hey everyone!

Today for some reason, all I can think about is employment and money. So, with those thoughts on my mind, I figured now would be a good time to talk about something I'd love to do.

I truly want to work from home and I'd LOVE to be an artist. However, there is another career choice I've pondered about. And that is being a writer. Now, to be honest, I do not like romance novels. They just are not my genre of choice. Then again, the only one's I've seen in the store have been straight romance novels and they're normally melodramatic.

Online, there are plenty of free romance stories. However, for some reason, they are either very small or every story is generally the same. For some odd reason, lesbian stories normally involve: Drug use (what? why?) Something dramatic like a rape or divorce that shows "why" the lesbians are lesbian (...again, what? why?) and other rather uninteresting, to me at least, things.

Don't get me wrong, SOME are good! But I rarely find anything... Sexy/cute, honestly.

For a while now I've thought about writing erotica. It's one genre I love and I think I know enough to make a good story. I've even wrote a chapter or two... Because, to be honest, erotica for ME is not "hot stuff, hot stuff, end." Most of the time, I want to read a story. Not just smut.

I've actually started writing some, have a chapter or two, not sure if I'll really continue. But it IS a fun idea...

Now, as for the second part of my title "You Do What For a Living?" I have to say, I am not one of those people who turn their nose up at the "seedier" career choices. Strippers, Dominatrix's, Porn Photographers, etc. I think they all have a certain appeal.

Stripping, for instance. I do not think someone is a slut because they strip and I do not think they have no respect for themselves. Dominatrix's earn (normally) over a $1,000 a day... $1,000 a DAY! And most of them do not even fuck people! They look hott and indulge in fantasies and they make more in a few hours than I used to in a WEEK!

If you can't tell, I actually look into these jobs. I love learning about career choices that are not the norm. At least, not for most people. I still think being an erotica writer or an erotic photographer would actually be fun jobs. Ya never know!
