1.) What exactly is it that you do in the Adult Industry?
What company do you currently work for? What's your job title
or duties?
Currently I operate RaunchyTales.com, which I just started a month ago, it is an adult erotic story site, which will also develop and resell other writers stories and my own once the site is complete. I am also starting TakeFlightPublishing.com, which will be the actual outlet for the erotic story sales. I am the owner and operator of both of these sites and do pretty much everything for them.
2.) When did you actually get started in the industry?
I started my first site in 1998, it was called SlutzRUs.com, it was a disaster, but it was a start, and I have learned much since then, mostly about design and layout. That first site is what eventually got me into web hosting, which I started my first web hosting company in late 1999, because I just couldn't find good adult hosting anywhere for a reasonable price. So LightningHosting.com was born, that later morphed into Liftin.com and WeHostPorn.biz before I shut down the hosting companies to pursue something new and different.
3.) If you could change one thing about the Adult Industry
what would it be and why?
If I could change one thing, it would be this industries acceptance as a legitimate entity rather than one that is constantly attacked as something bad.
4.) What advice would you offer to anyone that's just
starting out in the industry?
Read the boards, and ask questions of those that have been there and done that. The folks that have been around a while have a great deal to offer, and most will offer it up willfully.
5.) Tell us about any sites you might operate or that
you're most proud of.
I currently operate TakeFlightPublishing.com, which will be the outlet for the sales of my erotic stories and the stories of others that need an outlet to sell their stories. I also operate RaunchyTales.com, which will be an erotic story site as well, and will help send people to TakeFlight as well, and will likely also be transformed into a partner program as well in the future. These are the two sites that I am most proud of. The last site I operate is a mainstream site QualityBooks4Less.com, which is an online book sales site.
6.)
What are your hobbies?
Bodybuilding fills a great deal of my extra time, as I am a former Powerlifter, who has had to make the change due to bad joints. I also am an avid reader, and I have just also decided to start writing both erotic stories and a novel as well.
7.) Are you married? Have a girlfriend or boyfriend? Or
both? *giggle*
Yes, I am married and have one child who is 9. My wife and I have been married for 8 years and have been together for 12 years now.
8.) How much time would you say you spend working in a
day and do you take regular vacations?
I spend too much time working that is why my wife is constantly harping on me to get off the computer. Not only do I spend 8 hours a day at my day job, but I also come home and work on my sites, so I figure I spend at least 12 hours or more a day working 5 days a week. I do however take regular vacations, those are a requirement of my wife's, and must be done. Lately I have been trying to work out my schedule better so that I can make everyone happy, including myself; someday I will get it just right.
9.) Is there anything personal or professional that you
would like to add or that you would like others to know about
you?
Sure there is always something, I want to tell everyone that they must read my book once its published, it will be called A Lust for Blood, and I am developing a website that will of course have excerpts of the story on it as well, it is alustforblood.com.
10.) What's the one thing you like best about Rated Hot?
The one thing I like the most about Rated Hot is the people, they are great. If I had to choose one place that had the best people and I have the best time at it is Rated Hot.
