About Me

(Tagline quote from A.H. Almaas )

I am a nocturnal writer, adult performer, and activist. I don’t smoke, I don’t do drugs, and I’ve never had a drink in my life -- leading some to comment on my “purity.” :) Recently I was told I need to “find a hobby besides sex.” That, of course, is an unfair characterization. I have a number of other hobbies.

If you are here because of or are a follower of my writing, please visit my website, The Green Light District . :)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Well, I seem to be in a philosophical/practical minority in a number of ways, so it seems like it would be nifty if I met others who were also in these minorities: others doing the Work , students of the Enneagram , sex workers' rights activists (in my case, advocating the decriminalization of prostitution, fighting censorship of pornography, etc.), people who dress like whores...I don't really have high hopes for meeting any of those kinds of people here -- or in general without specifically seeking them out -- but one never knows! Other than that, I'm generally just here to release my truth into the (online) universe; if you find yourself moved to respond, please feel free.
