Established young author based in London and journalist looking for women involved in the adult entertainment industry for a non-fiction book which looks at Britain in the 21st century. I am looking to interview about five or so women from all backgrounds and all corners of the UK. Age, shape and size immaterial - all that matters is that you've got a lots to say and stories to tell.
The book will be marketed in UK, US and other overseas markets and will be published in late 2007/ 2008. The book is not academic but not overly tongue-in-cheek either. Check out my website for the sort of stuff I have written to date. This will be the first through a literary agent and aimed at younger 20-30 readership.
At this stage we are not seeking any photographs; the publishers will decide on that. However, should they want plates of pictures inside those whom I have interviewed will be approached directly by the publishers.
I will publicise any websites you may have in the ackowledgements and give you positive and helpful write-up in the main text. Should you wish, we can also agree to involve you in any pre-launch publicity. I can also agree a modest fee.
All enquiries responded to.
Best wishes
Richard
BOOK INTERVIEWEES WANTED
Re: BOOK INTERVIEWEES WANTED
Hi Thanks for your email. I think I'm sorted now though. No it wont be called AZ of Porn Industry. It's called Satyrs and Amazons. It looks at modern British sexuality in its widest sense but finds equivalents back in classical antiquity, so from ordinary women who like to pole dance, hen parties through to swinging and soft porn, and High Street SM fetish. You asked what would be in it for you: I was actually offering money. The book won't be coffee table format, it will be 100,000 words, paper back. Should be big, touch wood. Keep your eyes peeled - buy the book! Best wishes
