I am only a whore?


Well you guessed it the book is being called Xxxtra Confessions of a Working Girl.

Well at least its not the 'Further' rubbish any longer..
I don’t know why they keep sending me suff eg titles, cover ect (I said nice but not sure on the yellow shoes, so of course I get ‘we all love the yellow shoes’ back in reply,I shouldnt have said a thing) and asking what I think?

Frankly from the responses they get from me, they don’t care and I know they will do what the hell they want anyway. I still don’t get why they keep asking me for my opinion its a total waste of all our time surely?

I shouldn’t of had to stomp my feet and have to explain with them trying to call a book nearly similar to one in the same genre could hurt my business,life and make me look like a fool, but there you go.
I have come to the conclusion working with a publisher is like working for an escort agent no matter what you think, they know better how to sell you and expect you to do as your told because that’s how you will earn more..bla bla.

Having gone independent and having more confidence in my business dealings, as a freelance doing what others tell me to do now is not sitting well with me like it used too. I had truly forgotten how frustrating it was being placated and told what to do.
After all what do I know, I am only a whore right?
Crap I am sounding bitter and a bit pissed off don’t I?
Not really,I have had a good few weeks so far,nearly rushed off my feet! In such a goodway too.
I am off on my holidays soon, so will be good to get away from everyone that might bother me for a good couple of weeks. Locked in a hotel room to get the rest of this next book down on virtual paper over Christmas before the deadline bites me on the arse in the new year.

Xxxtra Confessions of a working girl

In response to Penguin my publishers now wanting to title second book ‘Xxxtra Confessions of a working girl’
And I said ‘what they want me to write hard core porn? because they do know that’s what xxx means x soft core porn or girl on girl stuff, xx is classified straight sex and xxx is hard core and anal action’ I don’t buy that much porn but even I know that.'

My agent said along the lines of, No the general public will think it means a ‘bit saucy’.
....................................................
Email to my Agent this week:
‘Ok I am laughing my socks off ... of course everyone knows what tripple X means..I have a friend that’s a Sunday school teacher and even she knows what that means !and she knows nothing of the sex industry..why does everyone think I don’t know what the public thinks or knows??? Hell my family are white blooming picket fence and as about public in general as it gets and they would know that. so if we stood on the street and asked the public if xxx meant saucy or hard core porn, Penguin are telling they wouldnt say porn?
..my other straight friend (that doesn’t know what I do and I mentioned in passing of a friend writing a book with xxx in the title said ..I kid you not ...'oh my god hard core porn!'..so yes the public know ..they read the same news papers that everyone else reads..
Am I livening in a whole other country or something here?
lol we are in 2007 right..

Bless you all..this is sooo funny... fairly saucy my ass..Oh I love you..this cracks me up...
Fine with me, but I am not giving money back if people ask for a refund...
Is Tesco going to go for that really?...have they said so???

...........................
So It looks like I am going to write hard core porn book without the hard bit..
So more like a book with an erection problem?
