I found this on www.erotica-readers.com - I've gotten legit writing gigs there before, so the info is all good and this seems like a worthy project:

Paying For It


Please tell editors/publishers you read their guidelines on the
Erotica Readers & Writers Association Website

CALL FOR  SUBMISSIONS
SEX WORKERS AND FORMER SEX WORKERS

Greta Christina and Greenery Press are seeking  submissions for an upcoming  anthology. The book, tentatively titled "Paying For It," will essentially  be an etiquette guide for sex work customers, written by  sex workers and  former sex workers. I'm seeking submissions from men,  women and transfolk,  from all kinds of sex work that involve customer interaction:  prostitution, professional domination and submission,  phone sex,  interactive video sex, stripping and dancing, talking to  a live nude  girl/boy, etc. (I'm also seeking submissions from sex  work support staff? front desk staff, order takers for phone sex lines,  etc.)

This is your  opportunity to tell your customers whatever you've wanted  to tell them but felt you couldn't if you wanted to keep their business.  Your submission  should describe how you do and don't (or did and didn't, if you're not  doing sex work now) like to be treated by customers what  behavior from  customers has made you like them, and what behavior from  customers has  made you dislike them. You can describe general  principles (such as  "Respect my limits") as well as specific examples (such  as "Don't keep  trying to touch me when I've told you that you can't").  

In addition, if you've ever given customers extra  service, special  treatment, or just a more friendly and enthusiastic time  because you liked  them and appreciated how they treated you?or if you've  ever given them  the bare minimum, short shrift, or refused them service  altogether because  they annoyed you or offended you (even inadvertently)? please say so and  give specific examples. If you've done more than one kind  of sex work, you  can either focus on just one or talk about them all?if  you do the  latter, I'd love to hear any overall principles or  guidelines you might  have to offer about what makes for a good sex work  customer in any area of  sex work.  

My hope for the book is that it will help close what I see as a major communication gap between sex workers and customers and  make sex work better and more pleasant for both, helping sex workers  get better treatment from customers and helping customers get better service as a result of treating sex workers better.

Original work of 1000-3000 words is preferred, but shorter and longer pieces will also be  considered, as will  reprints.

Send submissions or inquiries to PO Box 411544,  San Francisco,  CA 94141-1544. Include SASE, with sufficient postage if  you want the  manuscript returned.

Submissions and inquiries may also  be emailed to [email protected]. Please email the text of the  submission in the  body of the email? DO NOT email attachments, they will  not be read.   Deadline 9/1/2003; earlier submissions will get first  consideration.
