Sex is my Profession!

I read erotica. I said it; I'm not ashamed! I think it is so much better than pornography. I get to fill int he gaps in my head, whereas in film there are very few gaps. That became more sexualized than I wanted it to. Anyway, I think it is difficult to picture the people who make this kind of writing their job. So I wanted to show the world that the people who do this, are normal everyday people. They have children, spouses and soccer practice to take the kids to.
As I expected, it is not something that many writers tell their fellow soccer moms.
Dar Mavison's children went to an alternative school, she accidentally told one of the other moms and at first the other moms were shocked, but quickly decided it was really cool!
It seems like a strange thing, but she started writing erotica and porn so she could spend more time
with her kids, be home with them and make time to be a good mom.
I think that is pretty cool too. We are all sexual beings and we all have fantasies, so why not write them down and get money for them?
Dar's latest book is about a pair of queer archeologists. She said she got lost in her research about archeology because she loves it. She said you don't have to be gay to write gay sex scenes, you just have to know how it happens.
Dar is very open and understanding of all people's sexualities. She has made a huge effort in her life to normalize sex for her community and her children.
I love the idea of being able to be open with everyone about my sex life, I think it should be normal. We all do it, why can't we talk about it?
