A short but sweet update for my precious readers: my substack newsletter is now officially TheMuseMusings.com and no longer that horridly clunky subdomain. I also created official branding graphics and materials. This crazy little space is now a legitimate publication thanks to the first patron to support my writing. What a gift!
Please consider becoming a monthly or annual sponsor to continue my publications. It has always been a dream of mine to be a writer. I just never thought I’d get to write about the sex work industry or my life as a modern-day sex worker. But now I feel this fire swelling within me - I must write, I must write about everything. Our stories, our lives, our culture and traditions - IT ALL MATTERS. EVERYTHING MATTERS.
You can't Google or research any of it online. Sex Worker history and resources are shared orally, not written. It’s my responsibility to preserve the small details of our lives. Especially in light of a new generation of post-covid sex workers, we as a community are at high risk of losing all the small strands that weaved our beautiful, chaotic tapestry of a life not meant to be empowering or enjoyable.
I must write. You must read. We must share: A Fresh New Take on The Oldest Profession. And I’m the only one who can do it.
Dedicatedly Yours, Heather Riley
