The unveiling of the next big project…
August 25, 2006
Yesterday, I finalized the contract for my first book.
After getting this news from my lawyer and writing my Fleshbot posts for the day, I promptly blew off all other responsibilities and proceeded to imbibe in food, booze, and boinking until 7 am this morning. Dude. Ow. Totally worth it.
Towards the later part of the binge of awesomeness, my gentleman friend and I met up with Bella Vendetta, Zak Sabbath, Mandy Morbid, Atom and Persephone (Revenge Krew members) for the continuation of our day o’ drinking. Bella and Zak reported that the night before, they totally watched me and Benny do it in Psychocandy 4. They seemed suitably creeped out by it – “It was like, we watched our friends do it, and it was weird,” is what Bella had to say about it. Apparently Mandy took pictures of this meta moment, and I will gladly post them once I get my hands on them.
Oh, right, you want to hear about the book and not just tales of my East Village debauchery? Ok, right.
So the book is called Naked on the Internet, and it will be published in the early summer of 2007 by Seal Press. It’s about female sexuality and the internet and will be cover the wide range of ways that women experience and explore their sexualities online: camming, chatting and making websites; dating, hooking up and forming friendships; sex blogging; watching, modeling for and producing porn; sex worker advertising and networking; as wives and girlfriends of partners who indulge in sexual activities online; sexual health and online support communities; and technology that enables physical sexual encounters. For each topic, I plan to interview a variety of women who have experienced the internet with respects to the topics of the chapters.
And this is where you, my dear readers, come in. If you’re a lady and use the internet for any of the purposes I’ve listed above or any other sexy uses that I haven’t listed, and you wouldn’t mind being interviewed (by email, IM, phone, or Skype), send me an email and tell me a little bit about your personal history of sexy internetting (dude, its totally a word), and then we’ll take it from there.
Check it out, I’m writing a book! Woo-hoo! My empire is expanding (here’s the part with the evil laugh).

Naked on the Internet sounds interesting. The internet is where most of the innovation and otherwise interesting stuff in the porn industry is taking place. Even innovative video porn is largely an offshoot of ‘net porn. Yet, when the mainstream media talks about “the porn industry”, it inevitably focuses on the old San Fernando Valley video industry, Jenna Jameson, etc, which is such a dinosaur now.
