Free Book About I Became A Top Phone/Cam Girl

If your giving it away, why not just set the price to free?

 

@Lelo1 Because people are allowed to wish to be compensated for their expertise?

This isn't a bad troll attempt. I've read it and actually enjoyed it enough to buy a paperback even though I've been in phonesex since 2013-14. She offers it free to sexworkers if you DM her on Twitter and on Kindle Unlimited. (I'm @verapricexxx / @blairebishop on Twitter. I've posted a bit there.) Publishing a manuscript of any length is an enormous undertaking.

Regarding the subject matter, her advice is extremely down to earth and she covers the entire gamut of indie phonesex, agencies, and platforms. I struggle with shy clients even now and she had some incredibly insightful observations for cultivating conversation. She also touches on time management, which, as a spoiled ass sexworker of the last 5-6 years, really helped pull some stuff into focus.

I don't get why it's taboo to charge for expertise, especially on a voluntary basis. We should support each other.

 

There was no better reaction icon for what I felt. I just found it somewhat insulting to read a message that to me basically says "I don't have the time or interest to get to know or interact with your community. Nevertheless, help me promote my book anyway by giving it great reviews. And contact me directly for it so I'll have your info to use later on." I don't mind self-promotion at all, I just don't like the spin.

 

@Lintilla, Not everyone is great at forum culture. I was more interjecting that the book is worth looking at. And if you have Kindle Unlimited already, no information changes hands directly whatsoever.

I didn't really interpret her submission as her pushing away the community. She's promoting a product like so many others do.

 

@Vera

If that's her goal, it seems like a reasonable question to ask.

 

It may be worth looking at. The post just comes off as disingenuous to me, as a first impression from someone not familiar with this model.

 

@Lelo1 Because she wants to make it publicly available to sexworkers but also collect royalties from Kindle Unlimited and casual Amazon users? I publish erotica under another name that I get, essentially, a revshare kickback from for being in KU.

Lelo, I'll take your criticism seriously when you've read the book. If you are so invested, you can spare the $ to put your money where your mouth is.

@Lintilla Yeah, ordinarily I'd be in the same camp but I found it well-written and helpful. Like I said, she's offering it free to sexworkers so while yeah, it's an awesome PR move, she's providing something of legitimate value.

 

But why would I give her money? she's already told me if I DM her, She'll give it to me for free.

 

@Lelo1 Then do it. Ask for a copy. Because you apparently can't afford $9.99 for Kindle Unlimited sub or $16 for a paperback.

Please. I'm anxiously awaiting your critique once you've actually read the material.

 

I've always admired your work ethic! I'm reading through your book now and even though I've been a PSO and camgirl for a long while, enjoying it very much so far.

Very generous of you to offer it free.

 

You really don't even have to do that much. Following the Amazon link and reading the preview is enough to show that it is a serious work.

 

$3.99 Kindle, heck I buy lots of my beloved sci-fi pulps around that price and don't get to see the author's passion for it like this. Glad to support your work.

Though if ever there was a book that would be best in audio - ah, I'll have to engage the old imagination.

 

Seriously? Only $3.99? Take my money! I just purchased it. Thank you for your contribution to the SW community and your generosity.

 

I just ordered it as well. I have a lot of Amazon gift cards, so it was basically free.


Can't wait to read!

 

I'm 94% through with the kindle version, and despite being in the industry for 7+ years, I still found it very helpful! I was able to get my copy free with gift cards/rewards points, but I'd still be totally down with $3.99 for a kindle book of this length. It's well broken down and would be easily digestible for someone totally new to the industry.

 

It's a great resource for newbies and veterans alike. Chiming in to add to the praise because this is something everyone can glean knowledge from.

 

I just finished this yesterday and started implementing changes. I'm already seeing an improvement in my income. It was super helpful but also really easy to read. Totally worth the 3.99$

 

This sparked my interest! I'm going to grab it and let you guys know my take on it when I finish

 

I'm so glad I got a hard copy. Mine is starting to get filled with notes and highlights. Half way through and absorbing so much. Thank you so much bb!

 

I received this for free by DMing her. Though I haven't implemented any changes in my work(i just don't have the time until Summer break is over to revamp or do more than the bare minimum)it was easy to follow along with and read, had amazing info, and wasn't filled with extra unnecessary fluff.

I really appreciate that you were willing to give this away. I will support you when I can.
