Been busy organising a gathering of people in the sex world to work together on a joint sexual health initiative. It's been really cool, seeing how many people are into it. So far, The Lovers' Guide, Cake, Pout, In the Buff, Fuck the Shop, Rude Girls and a new QVC-style TV sex shop are coming along to the first meeting, along with a woman who's doing a documentary on women in the sex industry and, of course, Cliterati.
Have no idea what we're actually going to do - we're working that out in the meeting - but will probably involve us all running free ads or something. Should be a fun gathering anyway, cos it'll be the first time a lot of people have met.
Have also been asked to screen test for the QVC-style sex shop thing as a 'sexpert' - holding up sex toys and going 'this one's fantastic because it gives you great orgasms' or something similarly inane. Not sure if I'm going to have to get a bouffant hairstyle and start wearing orange foundation.
Even though it's cheesy as hell, I'm quite excited about it - I've never done TV before. Just doing the screen test will be a learning curve (though, having chatted to mates who've done TV apparently it's hot and boring.) Still, looking forward to the experience, even if I'm rubbish or decide I hate it.
